blog post L Communication: Beard Team Canada's Anthem!

Today's guests: Mitch Steinberg, Ryan Day, Ted Wilson, Darrell Crawford (aka Beard Team Canada)

The World Beard and Moustache Championships are happening May 23 in Anchorage, Alaska, and this is the first year that Beard Team Canada (BTC) will be competing. I'm a proud Canadian, and I want to support BTC, so I've set myself on a quest to find an anthem for this proud Canadian Team.

I discovered that quite a few people were taking a cruise from Vancouver to reach Alaska for the Championships, so I made plans to meet up at the cruise ship terminal in downtown Vancouver to play possible anthems and to admire the facial hair!

It was amazing.

We compared songs by Sam Roberts, Ladyhawk, Black Mountain and C'Mon for a possible BTC anthem, and by the end of it all one song was the unanimous winner - check it out!

Part 1 - Sam Roberts

PLUS - we were all impressed to meet the 2007 champ in the "Natural Full Beard" category, Jack Passion! Jack has just published The Facial Hair Handbook: Every Man's Guide To Growing & Grooming Great Facial Hair. (He should know, just look at that glorious beard in the photo above.) As a sneak preview, Jack shared "Passion's First Law of Facial Hair - Healthy Man, Healthy Beard."
