Close your eyes... picture where you were the first time that you heard that really, really great song... the first one that comes to mind - the song with the jangling guitars, pounding drums, thumping bass, moaning organ, three part harmonies, and the lyrics that spoke directly to you. The one that changed your life. The song, that every time you hear it, takes you back to a memory, a feeling, a love, a loss, an amazing moment time...

This is what The Brother Bicker Band is aiming to get to when performing and writing music.

In our first ever 5 way interview The Brother Bicker Band talks about their music, writing music, working together during a global pandemic and where the band sees itself in 2022.

This is the story of a place called Mouseland.

Mouseland was a place where all the little mice lived and played.

But in 2021 Mouseland wasn't the happy place it was envisioned to be.

The father of the modern day NDP Tommy Douglas would retell the story of Mouseland when campaigning. Douglas would let people know that the CCF/NDP was a different party to the Liberals, and the Conservatives.

Fast forward to 2021, and the NDP have a problem on their hand. There is a growing concern that the mice that were there to support the other mice are no longer mice.

Des Bissonnette is the former NDP Federal Candidate in Lakeland (Alberta), and a NDP party organizer. In todays episode Des talks about becoming disillusioned with the NDP, and the party's bleeding of progressive voters to other parties.

Bissonnette lays out that there is trouble in Mouseland and its time to get back to electing mice like Tommy Douglas once envisioned.
