Hawksley stopped by the station for the Rock Report to have a chat. He’s in town visiting his brother before heading to Edmonton for their Folk Fest. The new album Los Manlicious hits in August. Listen to the interview:

Greg (X92.9 evening/weekend guy) and I often get pitas from our pal Cregg at the 17th Ave. Pita Pit. Sometimes I’ll head over there to get Greg’s pita, and I take his order. What is his usual Pita Pit order? Triple-chicken and honey mustard. Period. No veggies at all. Seems kinda strange, but as usual he has some twisted logic to explain:

St. Louis’ Ludo are out on the Warped Tour, which comes through Calgary on Wednesday. Keyboardist Tim Convy gave me a call on the phone, and this is what it sounded like:

Greg (X92.9 evening/weekend guy) was headed out to do a live-on-location broadcast at Chili’s. It turns out Greg has an aversion to chili and stew (among many, many other foods except for Diet Cola, chicken breasts and dry cereal). He explains his disdain here:

Calgary has a Panhandler epidemic. And it’s getting worse, because people are giving money to these people. DON’T GIVE MONEY TO PANHANDLERS! By doing so you become part of the problem, not the solution. Listen:

Stop Panhandling

Is it really neccesary to shower more than once in an 8-hour period, if all you’ve done is sit behind a desk and talked occasionally. Especially if, like Greg, you claim to never sweat, even when strenuously excercising? Well, Greg thought he needed a shower before the movie, the second shower in 8 hours. Listen:

Greg wants a shower

Greg and I often hang out and go to grab food at restaurants. Trying to find a restaurant that meets with Greg’s strict, but crazy, needs is a giant pain. We recently went to a restaurant in an old house, with a really nice diverse menu. I found it delicious! Whitebread (Greg) didn’t enjoy it nearly as much. Listen:

I enjoy almonds, and other foods that contain “good” fat. Fat your body needs to be healthy. Greg, who is really thin - almost fat-free - believes there’s no such thing as good fat. Listen:

We get plenty of Telemarketers calling to the station, and the occasional survey. I took this survey call about education in Calgary:
