Varman chats with us about why sample based hip hop production will always be relevant, how he got famous on TikTok (look him up!), and his project " I Write Songs So I Miss My Dad Less."

Varman is a talented young human and we're excited to see him grow! His music is available on all streaming platforms, keep your eyes peeled for new music SOON!

Episode is available for viewing on Youtube, and for streaming/downloading on Soundcloud, Itunes podcast app, and Google Play.

Episode 71 featuring Anupa Mistry is now live!

Anupa has worked in media for 12 years, as a writer, editor & producer - and after a brief stint of work in New York, she's come back to Toronto to focus on some projects that mean a lot to her; including teaching yoga, writing newsletters, and her new podcast "Burn Out," a show of short conversations about creative sustainability (Subscribe everywhere! And follow her newsletter at https://anupa.substack.com/).

We had the pleasure of talking to Anupa about what she's confronted herself about over the past few years, Brampton, Identity based art, why she started 'Burn Out,' and the importance of creating equal space within ourselves to challenge our shortcomings, and share gratitude for what we have.

Chatting with Anupa was a dream of ours when we first started recording this podcast. It was a privilege to have sat down with someone we so deeply admire and respect.

Episode SEVENTY of High Top Flip Flops is now live! We had to celebrate this milestone by doing a cross-over episode Lateefa and Hadi, the co-creators/co-hosts of a great new podcast titled 'Two Peas in a Pod'! We had the chance to speak with the two of them about their upbringings - which involved moving around a fair bit and creating communities for themselves in the process. The two of them have known each other for as long as they can remember and have remained friends throughout, leading them to start a podcast to share their lived experiences, and host dialogue on issues that young folks face regularly.

Hear us talk about code-switching, Nivake's distaste for dancehall, and where Hadi got his ridiculous instagram handle from (@pakibydaycaribbeanbynight).

Make sure to check out Two Peas in a Pod (available EVERYWHERE) and ALSO tune in to Lateefa's bi -weekly radio show hosted on @isoradio.

Episode available for listening on itunes podcast app, google play, and soundcloud (video coming soon!) Thanks for listening!
