So we finally got around to doing a podcast. I've been talking about this idea for years, and it came to fruition a few days ago when I sat down with Jon Askholm and Rob Crooks ** ** and recording a rambling, over-long 'radio show'. The format, if you want to call it that, was that we would each play records and discuss them, and despite a slow start, it actually started working out. We'll be ironing out the kinks in subsequent weeks (it's going to be a weekly show), cutting the show down to an hour and having a weekly theme... but here's the raw, unpolished debut episode of **Witchpolice Radio**. ...
New band alert! Mannon and Nick of brand spankin’ new country project [Show Pony](http://showpony1.bandcamp.com/releases) are on the podcast! We talked about the appeal of country music for a (super?)group of musicians better-known for heavier sounds, about writing songs with feeling, their first recording, and much more! This episode brought to you by [Devine Shirt Company](http://devineshirtcompany.ca/) and [Black-Eyed SUZIE](http://black-eyedsuzie.com/). Huge thanks to everyone who supports the podcast on [Patreon](http://www.patreon.com/witchpolice), including the latest supporter, Rob Knaggs. 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! You can also throw a one-time tip via [Buymeacoffee](http://www.buymeacoffee.com/witchpolice). 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! ...
Country storyteller [Ridley Bent](http://www.ridleybent.ca/) is back with his first new record in four years, and he sits down to talk about the new album, his band the Killer Tumbleweeds, his impressions on Winnipeg's music scene as an outsider (albeit one who has been living here for about a decade already), and much more!
