Dope Nostalgia

You've seen her viral reels on TikTok and IG, talking about 90's burning skin care, drinks, products, and straight up nostalgia with a funny delivery. Christie Werts is here to talk about our favourite decade. We talk about SWV, creating relatable content for Gen X, Cabbage Patch Kids, camping out for tickets, an experience she had with Prince, when a musician should retire, and her family. She adopted her husband's ex-wife's baby and shared how that love came to be in her book "Life's Sad Story, God's Love Story : Transforming a Child's Adversity Into a Tale of Love".

Canadian music icon Chantal Kreviazuk joins me with plenty to look forward to on the horizon! The BREAK YOUR HEART TOUR with her husband and frontman of Our Lady Peace Raine Maida kicks off in Vancouver at the Vogue Theatre on September 14th, and will head across Canada. Their joint memoir "I'm Going To Break Your Heart: A Rock N Roll Love Story" has just been released, and Chantal's new album "Rockstar Joy" is out on September 25th! We talk about how Chantal and Raine navigate marriage, cats and dogs, writing hit songs for superstars, places to see in Manitoba, and more! Chantal is a gem.

Red Jackson, a young MJ fan who interviews the people who worked with Jackson is my guest today. We do a track-by-track recap of the 1991 album "Dangerous". Who was the female vocal on "In The Closet"? How many celebrity cameos appear in the videos and the album? The "Black or White" video, Kris Kross, ABC, and Heavy D, and the video game "The Michael Jackson Experience".

When you look back at 90's alternative rock, Blind Melon was a big name. Guitarist Rogers Stevens joins me to discuss Shannon Hoon, Guns n' Roses, the recorded vault of shows, the Canadian border, Odd Marshall, hockey, The Stone Pony, and much more. What a legend!

Milo from The 80's and 90's Uncensored Podcast is back! This time he chose Chris Issak as our topic. Chris has had a successful career in both singing and acting. We talk "Blue Dot" struggles, the Wicked Game video, Issak's acting credits, Keanu Reeves movies, and learn about Milo's 90's faves!

DNP pal Kendra and I are now putting our questionable music skills to the test - and inviting you to join us! I name the artist, and Kendra or I will sing a snippet by that artist. It's A LOT harder than it seems... 

Drummer Don Schmid of The Northern Pikes is here! We have a great conversation about road stories, the Saskatoon music scene, streaming royalties, the video for "She Ain't Pretty", recording in analog, and do you remember Dread Zeppelin? We do.

Joe Valenzuela from "Milk Carton Pop Stars" and I unearth the 1991 album "The Comfort Zone" and reminisce about all of the other songs on the album besides "Save The Best For Last", which was the smash hit. This album helped Vanessa make a well deserved comeback after a scandal of the dumbest kind. We also talk 90's crushes, Damon Pampolina's hair, CD long boxes, and another installment of Gen Z On The 90's with guest Jules!

In honour of the final live touring performance of this country music icon, Cody Tinsley from EarWax Podcast and I pay tribute to Alan Jackson. What a career! His cool rebellions at award shows, the 9/11 song, his love for traditional country in his music, despite the 90's gravitating towards arena style country, and more. We also touch on country music nepotism, and two artists who haven't used their famous parents to make their mark.
