The Life is in the Lyrics Podcast

Are you a little 'tipsy' from our excitement yet? Tune in to part 2 of our Grammys episode where we deep dive into the Song of the Year nominees and make our picks for who will win. It's a big ole game of Texas hold 'em! ...see what we did there? 

We've got soooo many questions for our new painter+visual artist BFF! Like, how important is music to her creative process? How did it all begin?? And how do you 'draw' with paint??? Press 'play' to hear all about her artist origin story, how she listens to one song on repeat as she's creating a new piece and how she wants people to feel that music through her art.  Lucky Torontonians can visit Th...

"You can come back but not the same". It's part deux of our chat with special guest, artist Katie Bond Pretti. What do Gregorian chants and the 10minute version of All Too Well have in common? It's a story of "in and out" but not in the dirty way ya filthy listeners! Psst--Torontonians can visit The Hudson Bay on Queen St and check out her current exhibit in "The Room", where all the fancy designe...

As if it ain't always the damn Priya Show! This time she uses her birthday as an excuse to make it all about her by choosing lyrics and songs released in her birth year, and that was a half a century ago!

Give ‘er an inch and she'll take a damn mile! This is part 2 of Priya's birthday episode so tune in to hear some of the songs that were top of the charts as well as her reaction to Helen Reddy's, "I Am Woman".

For lots of us it's been a 'happy holidays' but we know it ain't that way for everyone. Sometimes the most magical time of year can be just sadness & shit. So let's see if we can find some ways to get out of that post-holiday funk shall we? This is a 2-part episode so at the end of part 1, click over to part 2 to see what sage advice we've got to help you beat the post-holiday blues.

Welcome back to Part 2. Did your holidays live up to expectation? Are you sick of Maria Carey yet? Is it possible to beat the post-holiday blues? Priya and Mike share some pretty private shit they haven't shared before on what music has helped them get through tough times.

Another year over and it's time to look back at our fave music-related memories of 2024. OBVIOUSLY the ERAS tour will be mentioned but what other concerts and songs will make the cut? Tune in and find out! Oh and while you're here, why not subscribe, like, follow and share? 

'Tis the season and while it may be merry and bright for many, it's a damn downer for others. We chat about our fave holiday songs and why the fu*k they're so special to us before somehow veering into a discussion about a bunch of other random sh*t. Happy holidays to one and all, and a Miss Universe-style wish for world peace.  PS all we want for Christmas is a holiday follow/share/like/subscribe....

We're always blabbing about how music is the soundtrack to our lives so what happens when we talk about soundtracks themselves? Whether it's tv or film, a real good soundtrack can really set the damn scene and sometimes they can make or break the show. Hey, while you're here why not like, follow, subscribe and/or share this sh*t?

After 15 months of waiting, did it live up to its REPUTATION? Was it better than our WILDEST DREAMS?? How many song titles can we squeeze into this episode??? It's all terribly exciting, even more so because we have our very first GUESTS! Wheeeee, let's see how long Priya can go without swearing when her FIFTEEN yr old goddaughter is in the room. 
C'mon Swifties, give us a like, follow, share, and...

So far it's been all about the love of and for music. But this time things take a turn because we all have a few songs that sound like nails on a chalkboard and make us want to punch someone in the teeth....or is that just Priya? Man, she angry! If you're enjoying our nonsense we'd love ya to subscribe, share, follow and like!

Do you remember the first concert you went to? Shee-it, we do! And that's probably what planted the seeds of this LIITL podcast long before we even met each other. Nostalgia and teen spirit, that's what we're talkin' about.

The only drama Priya loves is in drama class so when family drama reared its infuriating head, she needed some music to help her chill the f*ck out. What did she listen to? Did it work? You'll have to listen to her rant to find out.

What's that damn saying? 'Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans'? God help us! Priya thought she'd be married with 2 kids and Mike thought he'd be married (to a WOMAN) with 5 BOYS! We all know things didn't quite go according to plan. We also talk about our sex faces. Enough said.

It took 24 years of friendship, a LOT of swearing and SOOO MANY fab (and embarrassing) memories before we decided to be podcast legends. We're Priya and Mike and this podcast is about how important music has been in our lives both separately and together. Because life really is in the lyrics. @theliitlpodcast on Instagram

Sure we all know that music makes us feel all the feels, that it can take us up and bring us down. But for f*cks sake, did you know that's a scientific FACT? Neither did we, until Mike watched The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

Turns out, the older you get, the less f*cks you give, and if that ain't freedom then what the f*ck is?!? Oh look, we made a rhyme...maybe we should write a song!
