Phantom Power (1998) Side B with Journalist and Podcaster Dave Breakenridge
<p>In this episode of <a href="https://bonelesspodcasting.com/shows/school-of-hip" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">School of Hip</a> Chaz and Heath welcome the editor-in-chief of the Edmonton Journal and the Edmonton Sun, journalist and Canadian news podcaster Dave Breakenridge. Dave’s Tragically Hip fandom is such that this summer, via his <a href="https://x.com/BreakenridgeYEG" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter/X page</a>, he launched an online elimination tournament (<a href="https://challonge.com/i1k442mw" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Tragically Hip Best Song Bracket</a>) to determine by fan votes just what is the Hip’s greatest song. </p><br><p>Before taking on Side B of Phantom Power, one of Dave’s favorite records by the band, Heath delves into reviews of the 1998 album from the time of its release, both positive and quite hilariously negative (we’re looking at you NME). Then it’s the track-by-track, standouts being the catchy Cold War-era hockey as love story metaphor, Fireworks, the document of a weary, maturing band on the road (Escape is at Hand for the Traveling Band), and breezy, folk-country ballad, The Rules. Emperor Penguin is an oddity loved by Dave, while Heath, not so much. Is Side B hinting at a lag on the horizon for the Hip? </p><br><p>Whether you’re a lifelong Hip fan or just curious about what makes this band so iconic in Canada, School of Hip is your guide to the sounds and the story of the Tragically Hip, one album side per episode. Episodes drop every two weeks. </p><br><p>For further exploration: </p><br><p>Follow Dave Breakenridge on his <a href="https://x.com/BreakenridgeYEG" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">X/Twitter page</a> to play <a href="https://challonge.com/i1k442mw" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Tragically Hip Best Song Bracket. </a>Listen to his <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/10-3-canada-covered/id1396040147" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">10/3 Canada Covered</a> podcast, and read his columns in the Edmonton Journal and Edmonton Sun. </p><p> School of Hip is a proud part of the burgeoning empire that is the <a href="https://bonelesspodcasting.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Boneless Podcasting Network</a>.

Phantom Power (1998) Side A with Writer, Documentarian, and Film Critic Craig Silliphant
<p>In this episode of <a href="https://bonelesspodcasting.com/shows/school-of-hip" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">School of Hip</a> Chaz and Heath welcome – from the Paris of the Prairies – writer, documentarian, film critic, and the director of operations at Saskatoon’s Rawlco Radio, <a href="https://www.craigsilliphant.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Craig Silliphant</a>. Craig’s latest book is a collection of humourous essays entitled <a href="https://www.amazon.ca/Bunnyhug-Cynic-Craig-Silliphant/dp/B0FGY6KPYK/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2QOYDSNX61HFY&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.lVenC3cb0kE523PZOx6ZPA.7hd0yPtd2QErdOpXaKkyQOJMcbk-ns1VI19ud2SBx48&dib_tag=se&keywords=bunnyhug+cynic&qid=1756065958&sprefix=bunnyhug+cynic%2Caps%2C127&sr=8-1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bunnyhug Cynic</a> which includes a must-read reflection on the final Tragically Hip concert, from their hometown of Kingston, Ontario on Aug. 20, 2016. </p><p> </p><p>Broadcast live on the CBC, the concert was watched by 11.7 million people, roughly a quarter of Canada’s population. This was Canada’s farewell to their beloved icon and poet laureate, Hip frontman Gord Downie, who had been diagnosed with terminal cancer. It was a funeral hosted by the dying man himself, says Silliphant and we talk about his excellent essay, The Man Who Walks Among the Stars (after first schooling Chaz on what the hell is a bunnyhug! Gotta love that Saskie slang!) </p><p> </p><p>Then it’s on to Side A of Phantom Power wherein even Hip cynic Silliphant acknowledges the brilliance and depth of Bobcaygeon. Other phantom powered topics include the influence of producer Steve Berlin (from Los Lobos), the bare-breasted lawnmowing ladies of Poets, the great Quebec ice storm of ’98, which inspires Something On, and is that a flute we hear on Save the Planet? And Gord, is that a nickel stack in your pocket or are you just happy to see that bad ass Thompson Girl? </p><p> </p><p>Whether you’re a lifelong Hip fan or just curious about what makes this band so iconic in Canada, School of Hip is your guide to the sounds and the story of the Tragically Hip, one album side per episode.

Visiting Scholar: Derek Lathrop of The Hip Experience
<p>In this episode of <a href="https://bonelesspodcasting.com/shows/school-of-hip" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">School of Hip</a> Chaz and Heath take a detour from the Tragically Hip catalogue and into the world of Tragically Hip tribute bands interviewing Derek Lathrop, the Gord Downie doppleganger in one of the most in-demand Hip tributes on the circuit, <a href="https://www.reverbnation.com/thehipexperience" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Hip Experience</a>. </p><p> </p><p>Lathrop, a veteran of the Canadian music industry as a touring musician, recording artist and booking agent takes us through his own Hip journey, becoming a fan after seeing the young and hungry Kingston band open for Rush at Toronto’s Maple Leaf Gardens in 1991. </p><p> </p><p>It was in 2018, a year after Downie’s death, that The Hip Experience played its first gig, initially intended as a one-off for a cancer benefit show at a club in Etobicoke, Ontario. So great was the reception that The Hip Experience was asked to do more shows, eventually leading to today where the band plays around 100 shows a year, a gig Lathrop alternates with his <a href="https://www.reverbnation.com/dereklathrop" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">solo career</a> as a country artist. </p><p> </p><p>Recreating the Hip concert experience is sacred ground for fans of the band that became a special part of so many lives and Lathrop shares how deeply he feels that connection, along with the unique brilliance of the band, every time The Hip Experience plays. </p><p> </p><p>Whether you’re a lifelong Hip fan or just curious about what makes this band so iconic in Canada, School of Hip is your guide to the sounds and the story of the Tragically Hip, one album side per episode. </p><p> </p><p>For further exploration: </p><p> </p><p>Find the Hip Experience on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/thehipexperience" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook,</a> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thehipexperience/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram,</a> and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@thehipexperience/featured" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>. </p><p> </p><p>School of Hip is a proud part of the burgeoning empire that is the <a href="https://bonelesspodcasting.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Boneless Podcasting Network</a>.
