Show Notes

We interrupt your regularly-scheduled programming with an episode from the vault -- March 20, 2014, to be exact -- featuring singer-songwriter Carly Dow and writer/musician Sheldon Birnie.

For those unfamiliar with the archival episodes -- when I moved all of my episodes from one hosting provider to another, years ago, I accidentally missed the inclusion of a couple dozen episodes from 2013-14. They're not currently on the feed if you're scrolling through the episodes on Apple Podcasts/Spotify/whatever.

I've been slowwwwwly re-releasing these over the past few years, and here's another. This one is particularly notable because it has absolutely deadly live performances by each of the guests.

Here's what we said about this one back in 2014: 

"Singer/songwriter Carly Dow and Cheering for the Bad Guy frontman Sheldon Birnie — also the editor of Stylus Magazine — join the fellas to talk about the “nuclear” theme, which takes a weird twist from the expected material.
 
"Sheldon also talks about his gig as a freelance writer, which has seen him take on pieces for publications as disparate as Vice and Canadian Dimension. Carly talks about her in-the-works new album, upcoming shows... and of course Juicebox ends up getting mentioned for the umpteenth time on the podcast."

This episode brought to you by our pals at Devine Shirt Company.

Huge thanks to everyone who supports the podcast on Patreon. You can help out for as little as a couple bucks a month if you like the show and want to throw some change in the guitar case!

As always, if you like the podcast, please tell a friend or 20! Rate and review on your podcast player of choice! Word of mouth is still the main way Witchpolice Radio reaches new ears. Thanks for listening.
