That Night in Toronto

So now we follow the Tragically Hip as they enter the orbit of Bob Rock for the 2006 release World Container. This is the first tour of the Hip's that I missed in the UK so no concert story. Once we finish this one we are on to the final three full Hip albums so I am looking to savour the rest of the journey. You can reach me on Twitter on @tnitpod or email me at [email protected].

After a longish time running Episode 11 is ready for your listening pleasure. The episode covers all of the songs on Yer Favourites, new and old, and as usual covers some of my concert going hi-lights from the time. This was an album to take a breath over before plunging into the last four studio offerings that came out prior to this year. As always, the podcast is available here on Anchor but also on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, and Spotify. You can reach me on twitter @tnitpod or email me on [email protected]. I hope your summer is going well and you are not getting too much heat, rain or fire.

Well, after another mini hiatus here it is, the next instalment. It seems very apropos at the moment given the release of Saskadelphia, the video for Ouch and that amazing performance at the Junos. This episode covers a pretty long stretch of time as there was a pretty big gap between when it was released and when The Hip played their second set of dates at the Shepard's Bush Empire. Enjoy and speak to you all again for Hipeponymous. You can find me on Twitter @tnitpod or email me [email protected].

Well after what amounts to a spring break I am back on my bullshit. Episode Nine covers In Violet Light. And the years between it and Music@Work. This was the first of my UK shows with The Hip and the only Hip show I attended with my brother. The show was great and I also talk about someone who shared their introduction to both Canada and using The Hip as a way to know the Canadian people. If you want to reach out I am on Twitter as @tnitpod or you can email me at [email protected]. Thanks!

So we are Well we are now getting into the parts of The Hips discography that I may not have spent as much time listening to as Phantom Power and its predecessors but that means I get to enjoy them all the more as if they were new to me. I talk of things Parisian, getting used to drinking wine as a primary drink at parties, seeing Springsteen twice and the other events of the years 1999-2000. If you want to reach out to me,  you can find me on @tnitpod on Twitter or email me at [email protected]. The podcast is available on Anchor.fm, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher and Spotify.

We have come to my favourite Hip album and the one that started this whole podcast lark. It is one of the longer ones to date and even includes a couple of references to my other key piece of Canadian pop culture Corner Gas. From what the Poets are doing to the family habits of the Emperor Penguin come along with me for this journey.

Warning: For some reason the audio on the first five or so minutes has a lot of crackling noise on it, please bear with me.

Hey Everybody, I am back! After a brief yet somehow eternal two month hiatus to cope with work the holidays and the general state of the world I am back on my bullshit and getting this podcast out on what could be described as a regular basis. This episode covers the only official live album that The Hip released on MCA/Universal. As always please rate and review the podcast on your preferred platform and hit me up on @tnitpod on Twitter or [email protected].

Well a week and a day late but what I lack in punctuality I more than make up in quantity. This is the longest episode to date coming in at over 45 minutes. We go through the events of 1996 and The Hip's follow up to Day for Night, Trouble at the Henhouse. We go into subjects as diverse as Anne of Green Gables, circle jerks and the mailbag. You can hit me up on @tnitpod on Twitter or [email protected].

A week later than originally planned but nonetheless there is a new episode of That Night in Toronto up. It covers Day for Night. Tune in for stories about life in Edmonton, the journey that Day for Night set the Hip on and some nuggets on the material. Tune in on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Anchor.fm, Spotify and PocketCasts. The official twitter account is @tnitpod and you can email me at [email protected].

We're here, we're at the 100th meridian. Everybody stay close. This weeks episode covers The Hip's biggest album to date Fully Completely. Also covers a hair raising journey from Lethbridge to Edmonton with a poorly packed U-Haul and a 1984 Ford Tempo with a dodgy alternator. Hope you enjoy this special special album.
