School of Hip

Heath McCoy & Chaz Charles

Musique

Fréquence : 1 épisode/15j. Total Éps: 24

School of Hip: Yer Tragically Hip Podcast follows two hosts from opposite sides of the border as they dive deep into the music, history, and mythology of one of Canada’s most beloved bands.

Chaz Charles — an American who first stumbled onto The Tragically Hip in the ’90s when they opened for Page & Plant — is finally taking the full journey through the band’s catalogue.

Guiding him is Heath McCoy, a Canadian rock journalist who grew up with The Hip woven into the fabric of his country’s culture.

Together, they explore every era, every album, and every track: the stories behind the songs, the legacy of Gord Downie, the cultural moments, the live performances, the deep cuts, and the impact The Hip left on fans across the world. It’s part discovery, part nostalgia, part education — and all heart.

Whether you're a lifelong Hip fan or coming in fresh, this podcast is your bi-weekly class in all things Tragically Hip.

In Violet Light (2002) with Hip Superfan Chris Doucher

Saison 2 · Épisode 24

lundi 26 octobre 2026 • Durée 02:06:23

In this episode of School of Hip Chaz and Heath welcome returning guest, Tragically Hip Super Fan Chris Doucher, as they review Side A of In Violet Light (2002).

Before embarking on their deep dive Heath shares his account of the Oct. 17 https://www.gedfest.ca/ GEDFest show in Calgary featuring Hip tribute band Trickle Down. Trickle Down was joined onstage at one point by none other than Roby Milgaard, son of the late David Milgaard, whose tragic story inspired one of the Hip’s most profound and impactful songs, Wheat Kings off the 1992 album Fully Completely. Roby fronts his own Hip tribute band, named, appropriately, The Wheat Kings, who performed at the Oct. 24 GEDFest show in Cochrane, AB!

In Violet Light gab touches on the album’s star producer Hugh Padgam who was hugely influential in the 1980s shaping Phil Collins’ signature sound on In the Air Tonight while also working with the likes of Genesis, David Bowie, Paul McCartney and The Police. But did Padgham’s slickly mature production bless or curse this album?

Songs include Are Your Ready, Use It Up, Silver Jet, The Darkest One, and the Pink Floyd-like It’s a Good Life If You Don’t Weaken. Commentary on The Darkest One comes with a watch-along of the hilariously weird video, featuring the Trailer Park Boys and cancelled but iconic NHL announcer Don Cherry. Our Hip Schoolers also check out the band’s gorgeous performance of It’s a Good Life…as fronted by Leslie Feist at the 2021 Juno Awards.
