In this episode I speak with Lisa Pereira, record store owner, first-time documentary filmmaker, and all around badass. Female Treble is the only record store in Toronto that is owned by a woman. A honour that she would rather not have if it meant that more women could be involved in the game. A champion of female entrepreneurship, Lisa didn’t initially intend on starting a business. Instead, a business organically bloomed from an obsession with records and a personal library that would put most collectors to shame. I asked Lisa about the documentary that she has coming out based around the 1970s Detroit band The Punks and what it was like to apply her DIY skills to the medium of film. We also speak about the Toronto punk scene, dealing with online hate from comment sections, and what it’s like to turn what you love into what you do for a living.
