This edition of Free City Radio features the second in a set of programs focused on hearing community voices from Montreal who engaged with the Voices beyond lockdown zine project of Free City Radio. The zine was launched in the fall of 2024 and focuses on the ways that community activists and artists responded to the pandemic lockdowns of 2020, particularly people directly from, or directly working with, communities that were already experiencing systemic persecution or discrimination before the pandemic began. This interview set is an opportunity to hear reflections in the current context, in 2025, on the sustaining relevance and importance of understanding how this period impacts the present. Also the ways that focusing on activist and artist voices in regards to how to both conceptualize and frame the sustaining relevance of this period, is important. On this edition Jordan Arseneault, researcher, performer, musician and community activist shares their reflections on the zine. Jordan underlines the ways that the realities of the pandemic lockdowns in the winter 2020 were driven by neoliberal policies. Jordan also underlines that the pandemic can be considered a topic that was is over discussed while still certain realities were excluded from those discussions, like those faced by undocumented workers. Jordan references historian Mary Beard's work as interesting because this period of lockdowns, again pushed us toward the local, while different from past periods where only the local context mattered, in 2020 it was a local that was globalized. Jordan references Joyce Wieland's work as an interesting way to understand the layers involved in this presentation, with both the obvious political conclusions being present while there also existing multiple layers of meaning when we take the time to reflect and discuss.

This edition of Free City Radio is the first in a two editions that are focused on reflecting on the Voices beyond lockdown zine project, an initiative of Free City Radio that highlights the voices of community activists and artists responding to the pandemic lockdown. For these two editions I invited people who attended the launch of the zine in Montreal in the fall of 2024 to share their reflections on the publication and the sustaining importance of the political, social and cultural lessons of the pandemic lockdown period. As the zine held a particular focus on the experiences of communities already experiencing marginalization (economic and political) before the pandemic began, the voices featured look to collective action and community organizing that took place to address power imbalances and injustices during the pandemic. In this conversation community activist and artist Damaris Baker shares their reflections on the zine project.

Between August 1 and 3, 2025 in Sackville, New Brunswick, Sappyfest celebrates its twentieth anniversary as one of the world's best programmed and most fun music and arts festivals. Back in the summer of 2011 just ahead of the sixth annual Sappyfest, I met Julie Doiron and three of her children at Grapefruit Moon for an interview over breakfast. Aside from her inspirational work in the band Eric's Trip and her award-winning solo trajectory, Julie founded Sappy Records and co-organized early iterations of Sappyfest. And so, I'm sharing this 2011 encounter with Julie and most of her kids (plus a cameo by Rheostatics' Dave Bidini), because it's enjoyable and provides some insights about her music and Sappyfest.To hear this entire conversation, subscribe to Kreative Kontrol on Patreon at the $6 tier or higher (a reminder that an annual subscription includes a discount compared to a monthly one).Related episodes/links:Ep. #889: Rick White and The SadiesEp. #857: Michael FeuerstackEp. #850: You've Changed Records is 15!Ep. #725: SloanEp. #651: Julie DoironEp. #602: Chad VanGaalenEp. #424: Dave BidiniEp. #272: Gord Downie [Archival; May 2010]Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/kreative-kontrol.

Joshua Schwebel speaks to long-time collaborator Lauren Wetmore about their shared interest in closing the gap between how art is discursively framed and what it actually does. Schwebel's artistic practice stems from a deep need to understand the world, coupled with an allergy to authority. “Art is rhetorically positioned as radical,” notes Schwebel, “but what we're doing is advancing capitalism for people who benefit from it and this is not in our interest as artists or workers.” With Nizan Shaked's Museums and Wealth: The Politics of Contemporary Art Collections (Bloomsbury, 2022) as a prompt, Schwebel and Wetmore talk about their upcoming book project, The Employee (forthcoming from Art Metropole in 2025). They also discuss The Paydirt Seminars, a series of talks dedicated to examining the intersections between art, finance, and resource extraction that Schwebel has organized as part of his current exhibition One Hand Washes the Other at Struts Gallery in Sackville, New Brunswick.Momus: The Podcast is edited by Jacob Irish, with production assistance from Chris Andrews.

It turns out that many of the things we think we know about sex aren’t entirely true. So let’s set the record straight and explore what we do and don’t know about sex and the human body. For today’s show, we’re revisiting one of my favorite conversations of all time, my interview with Dr. Lisa Dawn Hamilton that originally aired back in episode 53. Dr. Hamilton is an associate professor of Psychology at Mount Allison University in Sackville and host of the podcast “Do We Know Things?” Some of the topics we explore include: What do we actually know about the G-spot? Do we know what the average penis size really is? Does peeing after sex actually prevent UTIs? Does pubic hair grooming affect STI risk? Can men have multiple orgasms too?
