Subject: Eat The Weeds music out of Victoria

Hi Jeremy,
I have been listening to your podcast for a while and thought I’d offer my music up for a listen. I guess the label would be ‘quirky indie pop’. Attached is one of a few songs I recorded with your namesake Joby Baker at Baker Studios. Up until now I’ve been a one woman kind of a show (I call it Eat The Weeds) but recently I have gathered some of the many Victoria musicians to put together a live show. Sometime this summer I’m planning to record a full lenght album with Joby. Some more songs are up on here:

I really don’t know much about Victoria music scene (I moved here from the Czech Republic) and so I love to discover some of it through your show. I laughed the other day when you were talking about the Monday Mag story featuring the evil landlord Mr. Domovitch … in Czech and many other slavic languages his name means “HOME”. What a hilarious irony.

Thanks for podcasting and hope you enjoy the music.

Ms P and Mr. Baker,

I was just hoping you could give a shout out to some Air Forcers that listen to the Zone everyday in our Sea King Pilot Instructor Pit.  There is a handful of aircrew here that have been posted from our sister squadron (443 Maritime Helicopter Squadron) in Victoria that have been introducing the Zone to our East Coast flyers.  The radio is horrible here, but we are fortunate in having an internet computer hooked up to some speakers in the office to catch the Zone online.  Without it we would be forced to listen to a choice of 4 classic rock stations or top 40.  On the weekend in my car I was lucky to catch a back to back Huey Lewis set followed by Aldo Nova.  An 80’s flashback is a gas once in a while, but the local radio here is seriously  20-30 years behind what the rest of the developed world is listening too.

Please tell Mr Pattison that there is a decent business opportunity and desperate need to start a Modern Rock station on the East Coast.  There are thousands of university students and modern rockers of all ages that are forced to listen to Kim Mitchell, April Wine and Nazarith on a daily basis. Please help.

Thanks a bunch,
