  • GET LIT E281 with MARTHA WAINWRIGHT

    Very excited to have Martha Wainwright on the show this week. She's known as a musician and for her musical family (her mother Kate McGarrigle, her father Loudon Wainwright III, and of course her brother Rufus). Her memoir, Stories I Might Regret Telling You, is a excellent read. Check out our conversation.

  • GET LIT E277 with SELINA BOAN and DALLAS HUNT

    Hey all! In an attempt to catch up (haha, adorable, Jamie) I am stacking a couple of shows with poets. Each of them deserves a whole show, but this will have to do for now! We start with Selina Boan (Undoing Hours) and Dallas Hunt (Creeland). Both collections are fantastic and both interviews were a blast, so check out the show.

    NEXT WEEK: We'll be doing a POETRY GIVEAWAY in conjunction with Nightwood and moorehype so check in with us!

  • GET LIT E 276 with K.R. Wilson
    Hey folks! Today's show features an interview with Kevin "K.R." Wilson. His recent novel, Call Me Stan, is historical fiction...except very different. Tune in and find out why. Locals take note, the book is available via Hamilton-based publisher Guernica Editions.

  • GET LIT E274 with DANIEL SCOTT TYSDAL

    Hey all! Things sound a little different today because cell reception was spotty and we switched to Zoom. I could see going that way permanently if I can afford a decent microphone…

    It was nice to see my guest for a change, though! I had a great conversation with Daniel Scott Tysdal about his collection of short stories, Wave Forms and Doom Scrolls. Was a lot of fun and I hope you enjoy.

  • GET LIT E273 with TARA MCKENNA

    Hey folks! Today’s guest is author and founder of the Zero Waste Collective, Tara McKenna. If you’re looking for ways to reduce the amount of waste in your life – or even if you’re just curious about it – tune in and pick up a copy of her book Don’t Be Trashy: A Practical Guide To Living With Less Waste and More Joy.

  • GET LIT E271 with MARK SCARBROUGH

    Hey all! As you probably know, a large portion of my guests are Canadian, with the occasional Canadian-adjacent author (with a Canadian publisher, formerly lived in Oshawa, whatever the case may be). Thanks to a keen publicist though, Mark Scarbrough‘s memoir, Bookmarked: How The Great Works of Western Literature F*cked Up My Life came my way. An interesting and entertaining read despite occasionally serious subject matter. Really had fun in this conversation. Hope you enjoy the show.
