Ep. 38 A Tribute to 2 Legends

Brian Wilson (The Beach Boys) and Sly Stone (Sly and the Family Stone) were born the same year and passed within a day of one another. We honour these musical legends and remark on both the similarities and differences in their lives and careers. Masters in their respective genres, their influence and genius lives on.

Ep. 37 Happy Canada Day, Eh!

Elbows up and get the flags out bys! This week is all about celebrating incredible Canadian musicians who've changed music for the better and our hosts challenge each other with music trivia. Plus--HURRAY--we've got listener email! See? It's the little things in life and that make this LIITL podcast happy. Now let's get FUBAR-ed!

Ep. 36 Pour Some Sugar on the Birthday Boy

This week Priya picks songs with 'sugar' in the title as the theme, for no other reason than to torture Mike who's on a sugar cleanse. Why? Because it's his birthday week! Happy birthday to the co-host who puts up with a gal who talks way too much, and who puts the 'sweet' into 'the sweet life'.

Ep. 35 Kiss the Blarney Stone, it's our FIRST Singer-Songwriter!

From her hometown of Aberdeen, Scotland to the US to London, UK to Canada, it's been a journey for our FIRST singer-songwriter guest, the bonnie Michaela May! This week is all about that pilot light inside you and truly following your dreams (after getting two degrees to satisfy your parents!). Michaela shares a behind-the-scenes look at the Nashville and LA music scene and shares a scoop - heard first on theLIITLpodcast! Check her out at MichaelaMayOfficial.com!

Ep. 34 Yee-Haw! We've Gone Country!

We’re putting on our cowboy boots and gettin’ ready to line-dance with our (very handsome and smooth talkin') guest, Conrad, as we talk about the storytelling and the simple things in life that make us want some country lovin’!

Ep. 33 It's OPRAHH wait, no it's OPERAA!

Think opera is an elitist, highbrow form of music that can’t possibly relate to your life? So did we! Thankfully our guest, Dana Fradkin, is here to tell us just how wrong we are! Because if you’re a fan of Bugs Bunny, Rent, Apocalypse Now or our national anthem, then you’re a fan of opera. ‘Nuf said.

Ep 32. Karaoke Queens

Ummm 160,000 people sang what song to break the world record for largest karaoke? The longest solo karaoke session was how long? And what the hell are 'The My Way Murders'? All that and more as we talk about one of our mutual obsessions. KAH-RAH-OH-KEH Mu-thah-fuk-ahs!

Ep 31. Chin Chin Darling, It's the Long Weekend!

Priya has a late night visit to the emergency vet, and a case of mistaken identity, while Mile proclaims he’s off sugar (let’s see how long that lasts). All that and our new rant jingle before we even get to the music. Happy. Victoria Day eh?!

Ep. 30 Happy Hour, Road Trips & Rants OH MY!

Buckle up because it's RANT TIME! Priya brags about her free trip to Japan while Mike self-censors, coins the term 'commuter time' and explains what an ‘askhole’ is. There's no logic to this madness, LIITL Listeners, it's just the margaritas talking.

Ep 29. Are You a Wallower or Swallower

It's Mental Health Awareness Month so this week is all about the 'crazy' in songs. Plus, Mike offers a mea culpa, Priya admits to telling tall tales, and reflects on her own experience being part of 'prozac nation'. Ready? Let's go crazy little listeners!
