How do you go from punk rock frontman to mainstream pop music presenter for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC)? Our guest this episode knows all about it. From calling into broadcasts while on tour (including a famous account of a NYC hold-up in progress) to a spot as one of the most respected hosts in Canada, Grant Lawrence took an unconventional route to his career. In our conversation, we discuss the pros and cons of being a Canadian musician (spoiler: there aren’t many cons), promoting music that you love (and a lot that you don’t), being a recording artist with Lookout Records at the height of pop-punk’s popularity, his series of memoirs and the Lookout Zoomout! livestreams that he is currently hosting and producing. Oh yeah, and some hockey and Nardwuar stories as well. Enjoy!
