The Boar Coffeeshop Podcast VII

 

Download the podcast

What up team?! We’re back (finally)!

That’s right, you heard correctly, the podcast is up and running again with fresh new voices and delicious new poetic grooves. Veronica Fredericks and I (being Jamie) have usurped control of the podcast from the hands of the dearly missed Philip and will be updating it on a regular basis.  Really, if the podcast were a recently widowed cougar, Veronica and I would be the Claudius to Phil’s Hamlet Senior.  But don’t you worry, because Hamlet Junior (played by the lovely Nokyoung Xayasane) will be sticking around to keep it real and levy empty death threats upon us!  Try not to think too hard about that analogy because I know that I certainly didn’t.

Anyway, as I mentioned before, expect us on a semi-regular basis.  We’re thinking that we’ll be around once every two weeks, with next week being the exception.  In light of the coming G8/G20 summit being held in the Big Smoke, we will be focusing next week’s podcast on that event.  Further, we will be bringing in spoken word artists to lay down some truth for us for during the podcast.

I think that is about it.  More details will follow as they become clear and the haze of fatigue lifts.

Hugs and kisses,

- Jamie and Veronica

P. S. – Jamie, here.  I will give a cookie to the first person to e-mail to coffeeshop@theboar.ca listing every single word that I mispronounce.  Seriously.
