Podcast #93 - Sweatin' to the Indies

Posted by Grant Lawrence on Mar 02, 2007
It's finally here! Drop your pants, pull on your skin-tight silver short-shorts and get sweatin' courtesy of the first-ever all-Canadian, all-independent workout podcast!


Due to overwhelming demand from all of the athletes who run, cycle, hit the gym and train to the tunes of our weekly show, we have now specifically catered a podcast that not only provides inspirational beats to get your heart pumping, but also doubles as a pretty wicked dance mix.

I'll be your Richard Simmons, producer Chris Kelly provides the beat-matching, and Peter Reid (Canada's all-time winningest Iron Man Triathlete), KJ Jansen (Chixdiggit), and Nardwuar the Human Serviette (The Evaporators) provide the workout tips. The pumpin' extended sets are filled with the best in participaction prowess from Shout Out Out Out Out, Death From Above 1979, Peaches, Windom Earle, Tricky Woo, Uncut and many others.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh... WORKOUT!

    Beach Boys?!?!

    That shirt's not of a Canadian band!!!

    The DJ Champion Chill em all shirt would be more suitable

    His remix album even has a woman running: http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/P/B000K7UFTE.01._SS500_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

    Re: Podcast #93 - Sweatin' to the Indies

    This podcast reminded me of the time I was at the gym and some dude was takin'-like-for-ever to decide which treadmill to hook up with like it's a crossroads of life… so I grabbed the pen and ganked his treadmill.

    har har harrrr

    The bad news is I totally forgot I wanted to email in my suggestion, the one band that helps me at 6am every day on my date with the exercise bike. The good news is, someone other brilliant person made the suggestion and it made into the podcast. All Hail Shout & 4 Out's for their contribution to the sweating it arts!

    Did someone forget a space between "the" & "Indies"

    Nice use of Brush Script font!

    re: Beach Boys t-shirt

    Chris found that tiny pink Beach Boys concert t-shirt hanging in his basement laundrey room and STOLE it! He lives in a derelict house with about 18 hip-hop gypsies and none have them have noticed it missing... I thought he may have found it in the Salvation Army free bin. Like a squirrel with a shiny object, he treasures it.

    oh CBC Radio 3, i loooooooove you

    guys, i think that was perhaps the best R3 podcast i've ever heard. yup, i said it; i went there; i'm bold enough to make such a declaration.

    but seriously though, this week's podcast is like, uber fantastic. i debuted it on my ipod at, of all places, the gym. go figure. AND it actually made the half hour on the treadmill seem like five easy, breezy minutes. totally.

    i think this "sweatin' to the indies!" should be the first installment in a long line of regualry released workout podcasts. in other words, i need more. now.

    in the meantime, thanks Radio 3!!!

    Fabulous job with le #93.
    It made me want to strap on some brilliantly white running shoes that mysteriously appeared near my door yesterday and run madly in the streets....
    but then I looked outside, and remembered that I live in Vancouver. And that water seemed to be falling in brimming-bathtub quanitities.

    Thank you for the inspiration however. It is neatly preserved on my Ipod for future fitness reference.

    I love this podcast. It's awesome (not unlike the pink headband). There needs to be more Sweatin' to the Indies in the future, and maybe some more silver shorts.

    I hit the gym today just so I could give this podcast the full effect, and man was it ever effective. I smell another weekly podcast? At least monthly!

    I still have to listen to it, busy with term papers lately, if I get both my papers done tonight (20 pages combined), I'll listen to it before I fall asleep (if I get any sleep)
