Civil Twilight
Catching up on some older interviews, I spoke with Raina Douris from the World Cafe on NPR (Formerly of CBC, Indie88 and Edge 102.1) We chatted about the state of radio in Canada, politics and of course the Weakerthans. Quinn and I breakdown the song Civil Twilight.
Customer Reviews
Topics and Guests are great. Editing and audio levels need work
Love the Weakerthans and enjoy the discussions about the songs, the interviews with great guests, and the frequent tangents the episodes go off on.
The episodes seem to be completely unedited though and are much longer than they need to be. Also, I find the audio mix very frustrating. The guests are almost always at a much lower volume than Emma and this makes it difficult to find a comfortable listening level during the interview segments.
Garbage
Literal trash. You can do much better Mike.
