Soul Love

America.  Canada.  So close, and yet...so far?




Ted and I spoke with CBC Radio 3 Producer Brent Hodge this week about this very issue.  We may be just one border away, but there are some things that Canada has that we don't, and vice versa.  Here were our lists of potential "exchange" items.

Brent: Things Canada Needs From the States
1.  Austin, TX
2.  Giant Red Bull Drinks
3.  Light Green Tic Tacs
4.  Superstar Burger at Carl's Jr
5.  Santa Fe, NM

Hay and Ted: Things We Want to Take From Canada
1.  Vancouver
2.  Tim Horton's
3.  The London Alehouse
4.  Canadian Oil
5.  Canadian Government (free healthcare and support for the arts, wha?!?!)

We also got to broadcasting our interview with Suuns.  Check it out on our Artist Interview Page!

Tracks O' the Week:

Hay says:

Listen to it or "[he] will find you and [he] will kill you"
