The Tingles – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Road Trip! On this episode of The Tingles, Bob and Mike load their gear into The Tingle Tour Bus and head down the road to record the first ever Live Tingles experience.  The 2024 Junos are in town and our hosts head to the events tent only to find everything being dismantled.  Undaunted, Bob and Mike find their way to The Stubborn Goat and set up their mics.  During the next 2 hours, our hosts manage to corral some pub patrons who graciously share their Tingles songs and stories.

Huge thanks to Kayla Binda, Fiona Clancey, Erin Faulkenham Dawn Theriault, Jess Richardson, & Cara Patton for sitting down with us.

Watch your grammar on this week's episode of The Tingles! Our hosts Bob and Mike welcome Kara Kilfoil, professor of English at Saint Francis Xavier University, mother of three teens and fan of all things Gord Downie and The Tragically Hip.

Kara's journey from Musquodoboit to Calgary and eventually back to her home province is dotted with musical adventures, from her discovery of cool new music at Cafe Ole in Halifax (where she may have seen Bob's old band) to Red Rocks Amphitheatre (where she definitely did not) and countless shows and experiences in between.

Kara puts her PhD to work as we discuss lyrics as poetry and the transcendent nature of the right song at the right moment. We also talk vinyl collections and of course, Gord Downie. Join us for another excellent musical adventure on Episode 27 of The Tingles.

The Tingles took an unexpected hiatus this past March when host Bob Mills’ brother, David, tragically died by suicide. In this return episode of The Tingles, Bob and Mike invited 3 of Dave’s closest friends, Chris Hotchkiss, Jason MacDonald, and Ben Kean, to discuss the music that formed the soundtrack of their lives together. What emerged is a poignant - yet uplifting and funny - look into a brother, friend, and local legend whose life ended too soon.

It's time to venture back to the land before time. A time when Bob was wearing diapers, Mike was wearing mullets, and the music, was like totally tubular.

On this episode of an entirely British Tingles, we learn Mike has been recording from a secret underground bunker and is slowly running out of canned tuna while one of Bob's song selections reminds him to thank his parents for not buying him American flag hammer pants in grade school.
