26 days of cancon - day 24

Okay so this is less a song and more 26 minutes of the most iconic story from one of Canada’s most beloved radio shows, The Vinyl Cafe with Stuart McLean. There’s a studio recording on spotify too if you don’t like the laughing but I think he was so much more animated when he was performing it live :)

Dave was still awake at 2:00 a.m., but at least he had a plan. He would wait until they left for the food bank. Then he would take off to some deserted Newfoundland outport and live under an assumed name. At Sam’s graduation one of his friends would ask, “Why isn’t your father here?” and Sam would have to explain that, “One Christmas he forgot to buy the turkey and he had to leave.”

Okay I'm burning with curiosity so I gotta know:

18th april '24 — london

this was such a special trip for me. my first time travelling entirely on my own, discovering and falling in love with a city. i've been to london a few times growing up, but i've never had the chance to really explore and live in it until now. forever an experience i'll cherish <3

I’ve just had this 1979 stereo amp returned from the local repair cafe, fixed, cleaned and working after being in my dad’s loft (1999-2016) and then my basement after he died, following 20 years of use.

Specialist repair places had quoted me £250 for the repairs more than once, but the old bloke in the community centre repair cafe ended up charging just £8 to compensate for the parts, despite it taking him 10 hours to fix.

I’m so overjoyed to have it working (seamlessly with my modern turntable and speakers because analog things are the best), for it to have been from such a great community enterprise and because it sounds absolutely brilliant.

My previous memories of it were just being told not to play with the buttons, because they’re extremely satisfyingly clicky. The original turntable and tape decks died and the speakers were in poor shape, but I’m happy having this last bit working like new.
