Show Notes

Here's a very interesting chat with [Park Theatre](http://www.myparktheatre.com/) owner Erick Casselman about the venue’s challenges due to the pandemic, the importance of live music to Winnipeg and what a return to “normal” could look like, and much more. The Park has been one of Winnipeg’s cultural institutions for the past 15 years, and I’m sure all of you agree when I say I can’t wait to see a full schedule of shows happening there again — hopefully sooner rather than later. You can support the venue during this down period by buying some of their[ awesome new merch](http://www.myparktheatre.com/merch/)! This episode brought to you by [Rob Crooks](http://robcrooks.bandcamp.com/) and [Saskatoon Folk Rap Records](http://saskatoonfolkraprecords.bandcamp.com/), [Devine Shirt Company](http://devineshirtcompany.ca/), and [the Beer Boutique](http://www.facebook.com/beerboutiquewpg/)! Huge thanks to everyone who supports the podcast on [Patreon](http://www.patreon.com/witchpolice), including our latest supporter, Rach! 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!
