  • WR1013: Rob Crooks
    The new record by rapper/producer/singer/songwriter/Winnipeg expat Rob Crooks is a layered, cinematic meditation on grief. Here's our conversation about the four-song ‘Unhomely’, taking creative liberties with deeply personal stories, sonic experimentation, Winnipeg from an outside perspective, and much more.Need more Rob Crooks in your life?

  • WR1012: Local music recommendations
    This is a bit of a different episode than you're used to on the podcast. As many of you know, in addition to releasing new interviews every week, I also have a Patreon page. Basically, that exists as a way for people who want to support the show, throw me a buck a month or whatever they want to donate, and they get to help out the podcast, keep the lights on, keep things afloat, but they also get access to a bunch of bonus content.  The type of bonus content I post there changes now and then, but one of the things I liked to do for a number of years was to ask an extra question in most interviews that didn't make it into the main podcast. When I started doing these extra questions around 2022, I was asking people for recommendations of Manitoba-related albums that really meant a lot to them, their favorite records that were put out by local artists or artists with a local connection. This episode showcases a small selection of those answers.A similar episode came out in June of last year. This one features bonus clips from artists including Pink Snot, JayWood, Desiree Dorion, Pip Skid, Tod Hughes, Jerry Sereda, Freddy and the Fire Nation, D.B. and the Deadbeats, Satanic Rites, Fox Lake, Patrick Michalishyn, Car287, Shay Wolf, The Thrashers, Stiff Wiggle, Begonia, Campfire Sigh, Adele M. Wilding, and JP Hoe.Back to regular episodes next week! As always, if you like the podcast, please tell a friend or 20! Rate and review on your podcast player of choice!

  • WR1011: Show Pony
    Last time Show Pony was on the podcast, they were juuuust starting out, and in those early days, they were playing alt-country… but times have changed. I sat down with the band’s core members to talk about the shift to high-octane rawk sounds, harnessing their live energy in the studio, their excellent merch designs, and much more. Need more Show Pony in your life? Check out episode #560 (Feb. 2021). This episode brought to you by our pals at Devine Shirt Company. Huge thanks to everyone who supports the podcast on Patreon.

  • WR1010: Good + Plenty's 'Music Cocoon'
    Really interesting conversation on this episode with Good + Plenty Arts Collective's Amber Neufeld and Mckye Hildebrand, all about the upcoming ‘Music Cocoon’ show at the West End Cultural Centre (Nov. 16)!The event, which features performances by local artists (and past Witchpolice guests) Ila Barker and Two Crows for Comfort, is a family- and sensory-friendly matinee. We talk about the show, creating inclusive, all-ages opportunities within the local music scene, some of Good + Plenty’s other initiatives, and much more! Because of the time-sensitivity of the upcoming show, this episode jumped the queue and is coming out now! This episode brought to you by our pals at Devine Shirt Company.

  • WR1009: Chris Micheal
    Country singer-songwriter Chris Micheal was on a path to success a few years ago, until the momentum he had built was suddenly derailed and he all but disappeared from the music scene.  Tune in to our conversation about the way back from health problems and addiction, and his newfound vulnerability as a songwriter and a human being. This is the first in-person interview I've recorded for the podcast in quite some time, and it it includes a couple of live performances! Need more of Chris?
