On Air:
Mystery Evolutionary
 |
If Kristina could see any musician live it would be: How about my dream bill? DOA, SNFU, The Black Halos and the Rebel Spell. Maybe throw Pride Tiger, the Casualties and Slayer on there too…just for good measure. Kristina’s favourite food/beverage is: Uncle Fatih’s potato and/or sun-dried tomato pizza smothered in creamy ranch sauce, washed down with a nice smooth pitcher of ice cold lager. Kristina’s favourite colour is: Leopard. Kristina Mameli quotes: The Rocky Horror Picture show "Don’t dream it; be it." Rancid: ‘‘When I’ve got the music, I’ve got a place to go.’’ Kevin Ribble: ‘‘If you don’t have anything to say, then shut…up.” |
Two epic interviews took place today.
One, a broadcasting legend that needs no introduction: the ever astounding Mr. Red Rodinson.
The other, the lovely mayor of our fair city, Mr. Sam Sullivan.
Which one will air tomorrow at 3:05???
I'm taking votes...
Today on Making Contact: UCFV's incredibly articulate Darren Blakeborough, professor of the Sociology of the Simpson's.
Darren talks about how the show is not one to be dismissed, but is one that should be discussed as it can be viewed as a reflection of sorts on our culture.
Thanks Darren for joining me!
Local author Chris Walter, CEO and bottlewasher of GFY press, has quickly become a force to be reckoned with in the underground literary world.
His novels are simple, yet complex, oft channelling Stienbeck and Buckowski.
His eclectic cast of lovable characters, and what a cast they are, are quirky and flawed, but undeniably human.
These elements combine to make Chris my all time favourite author.
I had the chance to sit down with Chris to disuss his life, his career, and Vancouver, particularly the DTES and the music.
Thanks again so much to Chris Walter!... more>
I HAVE AN INTERVIEW WITH QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE ON WEDNESDAY!!!!
This Wednesday at the Forum, Queens of the Stone Age play a sold out show and Evolution will have the exclusive!
This will probably be the single most pivotal interview of my entire life and I couldn't be more excited!
If anyone has any burning questions for QOTSA, let me know!
Cya in the pit!

Joining me in studio today at 11, the lovely and talented Mr. Geoff Gauthier Publications Manager of BCIT's student newspaper the Link.
Geoff will give an overview of the Link, a paper that I have NEVER written for (sarcasm), tell us a bit about his job and reveal how you can get involved.
