BONUS: Things You’ll Never Hear on Canadaland

Today we’re bringing you all the trash that’s not fit for the feed. But one person’s trash is another person’s treasure.

Look, we record a lot of stuff… and we cut a lot of stuff. That’s just part of the biz.

We often have to cut stuff we love, a process usually called “killing your babies”—because you love them so much, and they’re just so perfect… but nope, they gotta go.

So we went dumpster diving through producer James Nicholson’s 20+ hours of tape to bring you all the good stuff we didn’t air on his recent documentary for Canadaland, Canada’s Greatest Game (No, Not That One).

Host: Sam Konnert

Credits: Tristan Capacchione (Producer), Tony Wang (Executive Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Publisher)

Guests: James Nicholson

Additional music by Audio Network
