Sometimes dreams do come true on Witchpolice Radio! Contributor Dwayne Larson got the chance to interview an artist he's been listening to for over two decades when he spoke with iconic Chixdiggit frontman KJ Jansen. They talked about the pop-punk band's 25-year career, their new magnum opus 2012, and more! Catch Chixdiggit when they come through town on their anniversary tour this Friday (Nov. 11) at the Windsor!

Dwayne Larson is back in the hosting chair this week with an episode he recorded with Brad (vocals/guitar) and Cory (guitar) of Ontario emo/alt-rockers Safe to Say when they were in town last month. They talk about their new record, being part of the Warped Tour, the rigours of touring, using their influence to stand up for their values and much more. As with some of our other 'recorded wherever we can' episodes, the audio on this one isn't exactly studio-quality (literally recorded on the band's bus while it was running), but it's a solid conversation and a good listen.
