Jeru The Damaja's Wrath Of The Math / Heavy Metal
October 01, 2021 02:00 - 2 hours - 175 MBHello friends and welcome back to BORP. For EP 53 Mickey and Tristan collectively accepted the demoralizing transition from summer to fall is in full swing. Mickey is handling this metamorphosis with the grace and dignity he is known for and Tristan is... coping. So really everyone is maturing. Moving onto the show, for our album pick (11:50) we listened to the 1996 snarling and pugilistic hip hop opus Wrath of the Math by Jeru The Damaja. For movie time with Tristan and Mick (1:18:20) we ...
Metric's Old World Underground Where Are You Now / The House That Jack Built
July 27, 2021 15:00 - 2 hours - 178 MBHello friends and welcome back to BORP. Between adjusting to semi post pandemic summer activities, Mickey's continued furtherance of scholastic studies, and Tristan essentially moving to the beach to teach surfing to unsuspecting passers by despite barely being able to swim himself, it's been a while since we were able to get an episode finished. Luckily, what an episode it is for you all. Tristan is still at it nagging everyone with Covid regulation PSAs and Mickey busted out some truly st...
Stereolab's Dots And Loops / Greenroom
April 25, 2021 19:00 - 2 hours - 183 MBHello friends, welcome to BORP EP 51 and get ready for some fun- sorry about the lame rhyme there. It's great to be back in the studio and sharing our hot, occasionally silly takes on music and film. Mickey is fully immersed in that micro dosing life but if you thought that would calm him down a little think again. Tristan had just returned from the mountains before recording so he's still shaking that Shining-esque cabin fever (note- we recorded this episode before the current pandemic trav...

Kelela's Take Me Apart / Akira
March 08, 2021 15:00 - 2 hours - 177 MBHello friends and at last welcome back to BORP! after a long pandemic safety related hiatus we are finally back with the big EP 50! We're super excited to be back and have missed you all very much. After so long of not being able to record together Mick and Tristan spend time catching up on their newly hermetic life styles. Mick is drinking a lot more tea and Tristan mostly just wants to play with Pete The Cat. Because we've hit one of those fun mile stone episodes (where's our congratulator...
Chilly Gonzales and Jarvis Cocker's Room 29 / Book Smart / Academy Brewing
October 06, 2020 02:00 - 2 hours - 172 MBHello friends, welcome to EP 49 of BORP- we are very excited to have you joining us today! As we transition firmly into Autumn, Tristan fills more and more with existential dread as the onset of winter approaches. However he does get to show off more of his sweaters. Mickey has elected to take a brief sabbatical from drinking in hopes of living his best life and having a shinier beard. You can't see because it's a podcast but it is absolutely working, oh wow. As such, it was just Tristan tha...
Todd Terje's It’s Album Time / They Live / Slow Hand And Brew Hall Brewing
September 08, 2020 20:00 - 2 hours - 205 MBHello friends and welcome to EP 48 of BORP! What a time to be alive, yes? Maybe don't think too hard about that. In this episode Tristan and Mick ponder yet again the coming Nickleback reckoning that all Canadians must one day endure. Mickey reminisces on the good old days of the east coast house scene in the 80s while Tristan tries to preemptively prevent Drake from suing us. Not today Drake! Mickey makes the mistake of bringing up Star Trek which segues, obviously, into Tristan discussing ...
The Pharcyde's Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde / Death Proof / Electric Bicycle and Ile Sauvage Brewing
August 03, 2020 18:00 - 2 hours - 205 MBHello fellow residents of our dystopian- and hopefully alternate- reality that is 2020. Welcome to episode 47 of BORP. In this round Mick discusses his time spent at the recent indigenous rights demonstration from oration to musical output. Meanwhile Tristan has recently discovered vitamins and supplements so it's a bit of a sliding scale for self betterment. Also, Mick added sound effects to this episode so it's kinda like 90s talk radio and it's awesome. We think. Moving on to beers (5:45)...
Lupe Fiasco's Food And Liquor / Juice / Old Abbey Ales and House Of Funk Brewing
June 27, 2020 20:00 - 2 hours - 173 MBHello friends and welcome to EP 46 of BORP. As this episode airs protests across America and across the world are still being organized in response to police brutality and systemic racism against the black and BIPOC communities. Even as media attention moves on to other topics as it invetibley always does, its important to acknowledge that these protests and the advocates helping organize them are absolutely not going away until some real changes happen. With that in mind this episode will f...
Timber Timbre's Sincerely Future Pollution / Hell Or High Water / Off The Rail And Wild Eye Brweing
June 08, 2020 18:00 - 2 hours - 198 MBHello friends and welcome to EP 45 of BORP! A quick note before getting into the preview. The turnaround time between recording, editing, and posting our episodes is not super fast, which is kind of the way we like it. As such, this episode was recorded before the racist murder of George Floyd sparked protests confronting police brutality and systemic racism around the globe, which is why there is no discussion of it. We look forward to sharing our thoughts on the issue in our next episode t...
PJ Harvey's Let England Shake / Event Horizon / Brassneck and Taylight Brewing
May 14, 2020 22:00 - 2 hours - 188 MBOk team welcome to EP 44 of BORP! We are very excited to bring you all sorts of neat content about music, film, and beer. Mickey is speaking more and more in French lately so there is also that. Tristan discusses his various Star Wars themed socks while Mickey has some slightly more intimate swag that none of us saw coming. We try to figure out the difference between internet rap and Soundcloud rap but don't make much progress. As the pandemic wears on and the liquor stores shelves are getti...

Metro Area / Dredd / Modern Times and Deep Cove Brewing
April 22, 2020 23:00 - 3 hours - 210 MBHello Friends and welcome to EP 43 of BORP! Our show has settled comfortably into middle age by now. We are no longer sure of what is hip in music anymore or even what day it is really, although that may be quarantine related. Lots to cover in this episode, including why exactly Mickey has a case of Caribous in his fridge. Elsewhere, Tristan has let his hair grow out and let's just say its a good thing you can't see what it looks like. As we try out some beers (7:00) we learn where Modern Ti...
Low's Double Negative / Wall-E / Container And Mariner Brewing
March 30, 2020 21:00 - 3 hours - 217 MBHello friends and welcome to EP 42 of BORP! It's gonna be a long one, but we figured you've got time these days. As we adjust to our new isolated reality we've endeavoured to not make the show entirely Covid related, but we do check in with Tristan and Mick to see how things have shaken out for them (hint- both unemployed). Not that they've worked very hard to earn it but there were some fun beers to try out these week (9:00). Mick brought a very interesting dry hopped lager by Container Bre...
Midrange Group Chat: Tristan Young, Jamie Mah, Mickey Mcleod And Daniel Williams Chat About Current Mood, Instagram, Music Playlists And Ideal Quarantine Dinner Guests
March 27, 2020 17:00 - 55 minutes - 63.3 MBHello fellow isolators and welcome to the Midrange Group Chat. Today, some of the members of the Midrange team got together remotely to talk about pretty much whatever came to mind. This round we are joined by Mickey, Jamie, Dan, and Tristan. While there is some unavoidable speculation regarding what will come from this new way of life, the team tries to focus on some potential silver linings of what the world will look like on the end of the quarantine. How will we behave around each other,...
Loving's If I Am Only My Thoughts / Tigers Are Not Afraid / Foamers Folly And Temporal Artisan Ales Brewing
March 21, 2020 00:00 - 2 hours - 196 MBOk Team welcome to EP41 of BORP! We usually record about two weeks before each episode goes live. It's often a bit odd to write about things that we're going down two weeks in the past but it's never that much of a big deal. Of course in the last two weeks the world has been irrevocably changed, to the point where anything prior to the coronavirus breaking the world seems sadly irrelevant. On the flip side, after a week or so of being inundated like never before with one single unrelenting t...
Janelle Monea's The Electric lady / The lighthouse / ABC and Steel & Oak Brewing
February 28, 2020 21:00 - 3 hours - 227 MBG'day mates! Welcome to EP 40 of BORP! Good lord we've made it to 40 episodes, congratulations to you for sticking with us this far. It's a special one for us so worked hard for you- the listener- to make it a heckin' good one. Mick explains the economic values of a boxed wine diet while Tristan retreats into the 90s for yet another Fraiser reference- so off to a good start. For the beers (7:07) we both take a trip to New Westminster for inspiration. Tristan got his hands on the much covete...
Propagandhi's Less Talk More Rock / Night Crawler / Paper and Phantom Beer co.
February 06, 2020 01:00 - 2 hours - 201 MBOk friendos welcome to EP39 of BORP! we have survived the New Years winter Armageddon to bring you, the listener (!), yet another round of Mick and Tristan's inane banter. When we are on point we discuss a wide range of interesting music and film, however the conversation does at a couple points devolve into discussing Mickey's beard. Again. Elsewhere Tristan goes on a rueful, weather related rant regarding his woefully inadequate garbage service. Don't Get him started! Lets dig in. For our...
(PART 2) (Sandy) Alex G's Rocket / Gattaca / Moody Ales and Brickers Cider Co
January 03, 2020 04:00 - 1 hour - 68.8 MBOk friendos welcome to EP38 of BORP! In our last episode of 2019 we take some time to chat about our top 100 tracks of the year and very nearly come to blows on repeated occasions; mostly just slap fights, really. We pay little service to the notion of dark heavy holiday beers for this round and instead pretend its summer for beverages picks. Mickey is still on the cider train (it's a long train!) with a selection from Brickers Cider. Tristan went purely which beer had the nicest label and ...

October 16, 2019 19:00 - 2 hours - 193 MBOk friends welcome to EP 35 of BORP. We go through some wild mood swings in this one, everything from the existential malaise of being lost in the Canadian wilderness to nerding the damn hell out over the purest if sci fi fun. But first- some beers. We try some premium content from Four Winds, the Edna Crabapple sour, and a lovey cider from Naramata Cider Co.

July 07, 2019 18:00 - 2 hours - 184 MBOk Crew welcome to EP32 of the show! This one's a heck of a ride as we listen to one of Tristan's favourite recent albums and watch one of Mick's all time favourite films. The two discuss the pop media god that is Keanu Reeves, struggle with beer related segues, talk about the recent Chromatics show, and probably some more stuff. Tristan crashes and burns worse than usual with the three questions segment, but at least there is some darn good beer. We try the Yellow Dog Squirrel Chaser pale a...
