Time to talk with another rock journo compatriot of mine, Jason Schneider. You might know him as co-author of the legendary rock epic Have Not Been The Same (with Ian A.D. Jack and Michael Barclay). He's here to talk about his latest, That Gun in Your Hand: The Strange Saga of 'Hey Joe' and Popular Music's History of Violence.
Hey everyone! Paige from Grit Lit pop in to tell us about what the Hamilton readers & writers festival is up to. After that, we talk once again with Jarrett Mazza, this time about his new Custodian series. Tune in!
In keeping with the spooky season, we're gonna talk about vampires! Emily A. Weedon is on to discuss her novel, Hemosapiens. Happy Hallowe'en (I really do prefer that spookier old-school spelling.
This week on GET LIT we talk with author Kasia Jaronczyk about her novel, Voices in the Air. Check it out!
Hey folks! Today we chat with author Danila Botha about her novel, A Place For People Like Us. Hope you dig. I'm sick so I'm gonna go lie down now.
Today on the show we're joined by Jim Johnstone! He was last on the show several years ago to talk about the collection he edited, The New Wave. Today he talks about his own work, mainly the latest collection of poetry criticism, Bait & Switch: Essays, Reviews, Conversations, and Views on Canadian Poetry. Joining Jim on the episode is Dorianne Emmerton, here to talk about the Brockton Writers Series. They, like everyone else, are facing funding issues, and you can help out at the link above.
Hey folks! Got to drive right into my wheelhouse (wait, is that how the idiom works?) and talk to some fellow music journalists again. Today we feature Matt Bobkin and Adam Feibel, discussing their book In Too Deep: When Canadian Punks Took Over The World. It features everyone from Avril to Alexisonfire (and other non-A-related artists). Enjoy!
Hey all! This week we talk to my pal (and friend of the show) Mark Sampson, who surprised me with the cosmic horror darkness of Lowfield. Check it out, and listen to our conversation on GET LIT!
Hey folks! This week we speak to author Danny Jacobs about his novel The Ignis Psalter. I called it "horror-adjacent" but it's also been called "part lyric fairy tale, part small town gothic." Listen in.
Hey folks! I first read Russel Smith back in the '90s when he released How Insensitive. Now he joins GET LIT to talk about his latest novel, Self Care. Listen in!
Hey folks! Double shot of interviews today with PEI poet Steven Mayoff (Swinging Between Water and Stone) and Alberta-by-way-of-Tokyo artist Laurier Tiernan (Fifty-Five Ways To Survive). Enjoy the show!
Hey folks! Today's show features author Karen Smythe who was last here waaay back on E49. We chat about her newest novel, A Town With No Noise.
Hey folks! Today's program features author Heather Ramsay. We talk about her novel, A Room In The Forest. Enjoy.
Hey folks! I'm back in town and diving into interviews once again. First up, the poet known as MA|DE. It's a collaborative voice, created by poets Mark Laliberte and Jade Wallace. We talk about a bunch of things (it was supposed to be half a show, but it wound up a full one) including their latest collection, ZZOO.
Hey folks! I'm still hiding out in Toronto. Well, that's not true. I'm cat-sitting for a friend (who's been on the show, but that's the only clue I'll give) and visiting with folks I haven't seen in a long while. In the days, though, I'm writing, working on turning a manuscript from junk into gold. So far we're at bronze, which ain't such bad progress. Today's show is with author Giles Blunt, who many know from his John Cardinal crime series. We discuss his latest book, Bad Juliet.
Hey folks! Today we're joined by author Blaine Newton as we discuss his collection of short stories, Rag Pickers. Good stuff. Enjoy!
Hey everyone! Had a great conversation with author Noël Stark about her new romance novel, Love Camera Action. Listen in!
Hey folks! Grandfather of the Treaties: Finding Our Future Through the Wampum Covenant is a fascinating and important book. To be honest, it feels like information we could all use for living in this part of the world and existing alongside the original peoples of this land. I chat with author Daniel Coleman and illustrator Rick Hill about it. Enjoy the show!
