December 13, 2015 #36 - New Hip Hop and New Features
Podcast 36 features lots of new hip hop, plus a new feature debuting! It's called "Five Minutes On" and this week is reviewing His Girl Friday (1940). Plus there's a new theme (based on TenPenny Joke's song "Sense"), and a few new elements thrown in that may or may not have come across properly. At any rate, I fixed the microphone problem from #35.

December 13, 2015 #44 - Cleaning Out the Inbox
Warning! This podcast is an hour in length - in other words, double the usual length. You may want to set aside some time to listen to the podcast. But don't worry, the music is excellent. It's full of stuff I've neglected to listen to over the last little while, and I've put together a pretty sweet mix.

December 13, 2015 #45 - The United93, Barreracudas
A short podcast to follow-up the ridiculously long 'cast from two weeks ago. I had some issues with Jamendo when it came time to put the podcast together, so a couple of artists had repeat songs. If you want to check out the artists I would have played, links will follow the playlist.

December 13, 2015 #46 - Streets of Hastings Interview
The bulk of this podcast is devoted to an interview I did with Rockland band Streets of Hastings (http://www.streetsofhastings.com), so I didn't put a lot of effort into picking the rest of the music.

December 13, 2015 #47 - Unicycles
A bit of a laid-back podcast, I decided to talk a little bit about unicycles. I don't have much of an intro either - enjoy the podcast!

December 13, 2015 #48 - Larisa & The Raindoggs, Sean T. Wright, and Streets of Hastings
Time for another podcast! It feels like it's been a long time since I've released anything, and in a way, it has. While I was pretty pleased with the interview with Streets of Hastings, I haven't been very impressed with the quality of the podcasts I've released since then. I've got a more positive outlook now, so upwards and onwards as they say. Great music selection today, featuring new releases from Jamendo.com plus an awesome cover track to cap things off. Download and enjoy!

December 13, 2015 #49 - Cinco de Mayo
Happy Cinco de Mayo, everyone! It's everybody's favourite Mexican holiday, because it's fun to pronounce. Today's podcast is actually NOT themed around this holiday, but it was too convenient to pass up for a name. Plenty of great stuff in this week's podcast, with songs coming from Jamendo, the Free Music Archive, and Wired.

December 13, 2015 #37 - Battling Back a Cold
Welcome to another podcast! I was afraid I might not be able to talk as much for this episode because of a cold, but luckily it subsided long enough so that I wasn't interrupted every few seconds by coughing. The new release section is a bit light on music, but overall there's some great stuff this week.
