Show Notes

For this episode, I'm joined by prairie rap legend Epic! We talked about the new [Saskatoon Folk Rap Records](http://saskatoonfolkraprecords.bandcamp.com/) label and its Winnipeg connections (namely upcoming releases by [Rob Crooks](http://robcrooks.bandcamp.com/) and [The Gumshoe Strut](http://thegumshoestrut.bandcamp.com/music)), about his own decade-plus hiatus from rapping and what it’s like to come back during a pandemic, and much more. A great chat with a true original. Watch for some deadly new releases from the label soon. This episode is brought to you by [Northern Royals](http://northernroyals.com/) and [Bad Gardening Advice](http://badgardeningadvice.com/) (who wrote me some lovely rhymes about the [Schmolaris Prize](http://badgardeningadvice.com/schmolaris-prize) to read on-air). Don’t forget to check out some socially-distanced shows at [the Park Theatre](http://www.myparktheatre.com/), who have slowly reopened after a long COVID-19 closure. Huge thanks to everyone who supports the podcast on [Patreon](http://www.patreon.com/witchpolice). You can help out for as little as $1 a month if you like the show and want to throw some change in the guitar case!
