Bonus Episode - Dante from Toronto

BONUS EPISODE: Dante from Toronto + Big Fucking News

This week, we’re slipping you a special long weekend treat: a bonus episode featuring Dante from Toronto—a longtime Hip fan, proud Canadian, and the VP of Marketing at our brand new title sponsor, NorthStar Bets.

In this conversation, jD and Dante break that big fucking news, revisit a couple of Hip tracks, and dig deep into Dante’s Hipstory—from campfire singalongs to missed concerts turned magical memories. They even discover a wild twist of fate: this episode drops on the exact anniversary of the Hip’s Big Music Fest show in Dante’s beloved Wiarton.

“You can be a superfan without fitting the traditional criteria… If it resonates with you, that’s enough.” — Dante

We also talk about our upcoming live event, A Celebration of The Hip for ALS, happening October 4th and presented by NorthStar Bets. This partnership helps us honour Gord, support ALS Canada in memory of Matt Rona, and ensure the show fucking goes on.
