For the first time since our milestone 200th episode, we're back in the West End for a chaotic discussion with Winnipeg's best rap outfit, [3Peat](http://threepeatmusic.bandcamp.com/)! The group -- frequent guest E.GG, plus Steve, Dill the Giant, and manager Anthony Carvalho -- talks about its upcoming European tour, the way the 3Peat sound has progressed since their debut EP, and their acceptance within music scenes of all stripes. Hear a new 3Peat song on the podcast, too! Fittingly, this episode is brought to you by 3Peat's label, [Fourth Quarter Records](http://www.fourthquarterrecords.com/), where you can get some great local hip-hop and those glorious 3Peat hoodies you've been seeing everywhere. It's also brought to you by [Local Jukebox Birthday Bands as Bands](http://www.facebook.com/events/285537361980181/), May 5 at the Park Theatre. It's a similar concept to the experiment we tried last year with the "Mutual Appreciation Society" show, but this one is a lot more ambitious (and we're not involved in it). Local bands will be performing full sets of other local bands' material (and vice versa). A quick look at the lineup is proof enough that this show will be a blast. ...
Happy holidays! This week's episode features **Kevin Strang** , drummer for Winnipeg post-punkers **[Pop Crimes](http://popcrimes.bandcamp.com/)**. Kevin also owns/operates the **[Bonzer Records](http://bonzerrecords.bandcamp.com/)** label. In a rare (for us) one-host/one-guest podcast, Sam hung out in Kevin's apartment to talk about the randomly-generated "banana" theme, touring, releasing vinyl, Cuban rap and more. ...
[Nigel Webber](http://www.instagram.com/makingplansfornigel/) is a local writer and the author of the upcoming book [Gritty City](http://www.instagram.com/grittycitywpg/), an oral history of Winnipeg hip-hop. We talked about the ambitious project, the wide range of artists he has interviewed already, some of the long-lost Winnipeg rap records he has yet to hear, and more! Get a taste of Nigel’s project in this month's Stylus Magazine, which includes his hard-to-argue-with [list of Winnipeg’s top 100 rap songs](http://ckuw.ca/stylus/2020/10/06/winnipeg-state-of-mind-top-100-winnipeg-hip-hop-songs/). This episode brought to you by [Rob Crooks](http://robcrooks.bandcamp.com/), whose outstanding new album, Introducing the Ghost, is out now from [Saskatoon Folk Rap Records](http://saskatoonfolkraprecords.bandcamp.com/)! It’s also brought to you by our pals at the [Beer Boutique](http://www.facebook.com/beerboutiquewpg/)! 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! ...
