No Comments on Ep. #1031: Leanne Betasamosake Simpson

Leanne Betasamosake Simpson returns to discuss her new album Live Like the Sky, why people are so often air unaware, her book Theory of Water and how a world ending means a new one is beginning, the concept of generative refusal, lakes, oceans, skiing, running, and surfing, holding a tape recorder up to a car radio speaker to capture underground rock music in the 1980s and how those new wave and post-punk sounds inform this new record, learning to sing and making music that is fun even though the lyrics are heavy, touring, a new book, other future plans, and much more.

Brian Fauteux is here to discuss his book, Music in Orbit: Satellite Radio in the Streaming Space Age, his lifelong interest in underground music, culture, and media, how the advent of satellite radio in the early part of this century modelled the way subscription culture functions now, the huge role Howard Stern, Bob Dylan, and Eminem played in all of this, and much more. Part of the South East Community Leagues Association’s speaker series, this episode was recorded live before an outdoor audience on June 22, 2025, at Edmonton’s Capilano Skate Park.
