Song Buzzards

June 8th, 2016  •  This week… on Song Buzzards: Our heroes question how many songs it takes to be an LP instead of an EP, converse on the growing issue of rapping comedians, throw shade at sheeple who listen solely to the radio, and of course discuss Cory’s upcoming (albeit fake) trip to the Soundwave Festival in Croatia. They also ask meaningful questions like “What is summer to you?”, “What exactly is a shakuhachi?”, and “Do Canadians have proms or just winter festivals all year long?”

May 24th, 2016  •  On this light-hearted-yet-heavy-hitting episode of Sound Song Buzzards, our heroes welcome their first guest, “Encyclopedia” Andrew, as he puts his nerves aside and pokes fun at Cory’s white New Balances and Devon’s beer koozies. Meanwhile, Cory and Devon try to make sense of Andrew’s contradictory music choices, and realize that their heated rivalry to try to discover the best new music may be the thing that tears them apart forever (but probably not because this isn’t a sappy ABC drama).
