Get Lit

Hello everyone! Today's show is admittedly one of the most local show I've done on Get Lit. It features my friend Jason Allen, talking all things to do in Hamilton. Quite literally, actually; we talk about his book, 52 Things To Do In Hamilton: The Insider's Guide to Fun in the Hammer. Before you tell me you don't live here or never plan to visit here, there's still stuff to be learned. Every city has its treasures. Pointing out ours might help you find the treasures in your own town!

Hey everyone! Last time we talked to Barbara Sibbald, it was over four hundred episodes ago. Can I say, that's totally bananas? She's back again to talk about her novel Almost English.

Hey folks! Great chat with author PP Wong about her latest novel, Slice the Water (was longlisted for Canada Reads this year). Check out the book, check out the show!

Hi folks! This week's show features poet Anna-Lee Popham, talking about her last collection, Empires of the Everyday. We're also joined by Noelle Allen to talk about Sharp Words 2026!

Hey all! Great conversation with author Su Chang about her excellent novel, The Immortal Woman. Listen if you can!

Back in 2017 I met a lovely group of writers on Pelee Island (I'll include Margaret Atwood and Graeme Gibson in that group). I also did a book swap with Janet Turpin Myers, but haven't been able to have her on the show until this week. We discuss her latest, Love Watching Madness. Listen in!

Hey folks! I've known author and broadcaster Scott Neigh for a while, originally from my day job at 93.3 CFMU FM. Today he joins me (and comes back on the CFMU airwaves) to talk about his book, Listen! Knowing The World And Fighting To Change It. So like the title says…

Hey folks. Happy New Year! Show's up a day early. Today we talk with Rob McLennan about his latest, The Book of Sentences. Check it out.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays! Releasing the show a day early so I can devote tomorrow to family. This week we talk to David Bergen. Always great to have him on the show. We're discussing his latest, Days of Feasting and Rejoicing. Enjoy and have a great holiday!

Hey folks! Just fresh back off Toronto Island, now hoping to maintain some of the forward momentum. In the meanwhile, had a great talk with Sadiqa de Meijer about her collection of essays, In The Field. Hope you enjoy.

By the way yes there will be a show "Christmas Day" though I'll probably get it out a touch early!
