Great new episode with Ryan Clapham of the band Cannons, whose song Loving You just topped the Alternative Radio charts in late February. Ryan gives us the life and times of his 9 year old Blue Heeler Banjo Bruce and, their relatively new sibling, 1.5 year old Pembroke/Cardigan Corgi Hocus Corgnilious Floof.

Cannons are on a sold-out UK tour starting this week on March 13th with stops in Berlin, Cologne, Paris Amsterdam and London.

And with our first instance of having the same shout-out from two consecutive guests, which speaks volumes towards the organization, Ryan chose to give props to A Purposeful Rescue who aim to give the overlooked and those in need of a little extra work or care a second chance. To help them and their mission through adoption, fostering, volunteering or donating visit apurposefulrescue.org.
