Dear Listener,

When my friends at CBC Radio 3 first asked me to "host a podcast", I assumed it was some kind of euphemism. Long story short, I was firmly escorted off the premises and told in no uncertain terms that I would not be welcome at next year's staff Christmas party. At that point, I decided to look up the word "podcast" in the dictionary. You can imagine my embarrassment (is it a coincidence that the word embarrassment involves the words "bare" and "ass"?)

ANYWAY. I straightened the whole mess out with a few well placed bribes, and here I am "hosting a podcast" in the most literal sense of the term. I even wore pants in the studio! Contained within this nifty data file you will find several excellent songs that I felt like listening to that morning. You'll also hear the wittiest anecdotes that I could muster as I toiled under the withering glare of producer Pedro "Slavedriver" Mendes.

As an added bonus, please enjoy a brand new song from my band Toyko Police Club, available on our brand new record Champ, which comes out June 8th. Far out, man!

Your friend,
Graham
