In honour of the big 200th episode release some of the comics in the scene put together an amazing video to commemorate. I had no idea what it was and watched it live on the podcast for the first time. Not only did @nickmcquik organize the whole video but he then re-edited the video with my reaction and it was so cute (and embarrassing) I had to put it out!
Huge shoutout to all the comics for their kind words and the laughs along the way! Here’s to 200 more and all the exciting comedy things coming down the pipe!

Heard a local Edmonton band cover this absolute classic of a @nickelback tune the other night and had to give it a try! Sent it a little hard and my voice has been sore for 2 days but I think it was worth it because it was a blast to get loud!
Also keep your eyes peeled for the wicked podcast we recorded this week with @kalehancock about his first semester at the UofA, it’s a doozy!

Today was a really tough day. Haven’t felt this sad in a long time, jet lag kicked my ass and I could feel myself slipping back into old spirals. I wanted nothing more than to smoke a bunch of weed and forget about all my problems. But for some reason I decided to play guitar instead and reached out to a fellow Zach Bryan fanatic to send me some songs to learn.
She sent about 10 songs and each one was so incredible and so specific to the things I’m going through I couldn’t believe it. I love this mans music so much and I’m still able to be floored by new songs of his all the time. He very wel be the best story teller in music. Turned my night right around and I knew I had to record one of them. It was a tough decision but I decided on “the good I’ll do”.
It’s always tough with new songs because I knew if I gave myself I few days I could learn them way better but something told me to just wing it…. Also sorry no podcast tomorrow, wasnt feeling up to recording the intro and outro but it will be out Tuesday and it’s a ripper. I’m so thankful for all the love my family gives to me all the time. No matter hurt my heart gets there’s always plenty in reserve and I truly believe that is because of how much love was in our house growing up. I learn every day how much of a privilege that is so if you are running low on love these holidays know I always have a little extra for you ❤️

One of these days I’m going to get @zachlanebryan on the podcast to find out how he makes such incredible music but until then you guys get terrible covers! Check out crooked teeth to hear how amazing it sounds when it’s done by a professional!

Something in the orange by @zachlanebryan
My god do I love this song but damn did it kick my ass so apologies for the foul language but this was attempt 5 bajillion and my patience was wearing thin.
This song is so amazing and I can’t wait to keep practicing it until I can actually do it justice but even this rough version I just learned is so much fun to play I know this will be a go to song around the campfire all summer long!
Also got an amazing podcast coming out tomorrow so don’t miss it!

Omg I was just messing around practicing songs I may want to record and this one was too funny not to post. If you think I make funny faces when I know I might post it you gotta see the guitar face in this bitch 😂 also feat the face jiggle hat switch at the start. I’m such a loser dear god!
But anyways here’s “You should probably leave” by the great @chrisstapleton who was amazing the other day in edmonton. I’ve seen him live 3 times and I would go again tomorrow if I could 😍

Feathered Indians by @timmytychilders
Love this tune and it’s so fun to play. Wind is howling outside but somehow I think it added to the experience! Hope you like it!
Took a crack at one of my all time favourite songs by the unbelievably talented Colter Wall. Every song he puts out has such soul and depth and I even have a hard time not getting sucked in completely when his music plays and just ending up rocking back and forth with my eyes shut taking it in!
Still trying to get used to not doing 30 takes before posting a song I enjoy! This is one of my favourite songs and it’s a joy to play! Hope you enjoy listening as well!
Little one take Johnson at a tune I used to play back in university with my buddy all the time! It sure sounded better with his voice added to it but o well! I so rarely record myself playing I gotta make use of it!
Voice has been rough the last few days and it’s killing me not to be playing but I forgot I recorded 3 or 4 songs last time I posted so thought I would share one of my favourite tunes by an absolute Canadian musical genius in @cityandcolour_official. I still can’t believe he came to little old grande prairie a couple summers ago and can’t wait to see him live again soon!
Quick and dirty version of Tyler Childers Nose on the grindstone. I absolutely love this song and even though my voice doesn’t quite like the punishment of it I can’t stop playing it 😂 reminds me a lot of all those years ago when Tennessee Whiskey came out and everyone was sure I took up smoking from the sound of my voice! Hope you enjoy, if you do check out the podcast!
I know I said I was going to do rough one take videos going forward?! Well I attempted that with this old favourite of mine and god damn is this song harder than I remember! I used to be able to play this tune no problem back in university and now I’m twice the guitar player and can barely pick it back up! But hopefully the frustration doesn’t come through too much as I really love this song and it may tough but it’s sooooo much fun to play!!
Here is a clip from episode #40 with @scottsync from @nait! This was one of my favourite conversations to date and I can’t wait for more and more people to stumble across it going forward! Huge thanks to @thepodcastfarm for the clips, please let me know what you think as we are always looking for areas to improve!
