Guest DJ is Sasha today: “Dark Horse” – Katy Perry
Shea and I have been showing the kids a lot of our favourite movies from when we were growing up – “Dirty Dancing” to “Adventures in Babysitting” to “Airplane!” – movies that both of us remember being allowed to watch by our parents at relatively young ages with no censorship or restrictions (*maybe* I’d […]
I posted this song in June 2019 with only a brief reference to the controversy around the song’s contents which evoke incest and rape. But I thought it might be worth revisiting for FTRW, especially in light of the news that came out in August 2020 that the band’s bassist had subsequently been accused of […]

With Tom Brady’s latest Super Bowl win possibly cementing his status as the greatest American football player of all-time, it’s also sparked debates about who is the greatest athlete of all-time? Serious question. If Tom Brady having won more Super Bowls than every franchise in the NFL history isn't the most amazing individual statistic in […]
Shea and I are hooked on “Yellowstone” right now and a big part of that is realising how many songs on the soundtrack are already part of the “Camping Faves” playlist we listen to non-stop every summer (including a few by Ryan Bingham who also stars in the show as a singing cowboy.) “Southside of […]
It’s a long way from the stage of the “Cancer Jamboree” at Nickle Lake outside Weyburn (where we’ve camped for years and now have our own seasonal campsite) to the American Country Music Top 20 airplay charts… “Somebody Like That” – Tenille Arts
It’s like Tim Minchin says, “Some of the hymns that they sing have nice chords but the lyrics are dodgy” (though in this case, I’d say “Amazing Grace” is of the few religious songs that totally transcends its genre into an all-time classic, no matter your atheistic leanings!) 😉 Garth was good but this is […]
