b'Splatter Art Zombie Portrait that Scott made for Gobs\\nThis week is an important week.\\xa0It\\u2019s PARAMEDIC WEEK here in Canada and you might not have known that because, for some reason, it\\u2019s not a week that we really celebrate, but we want to change that, because paramedics are true heroes of our society. They\\u2019re at almost every call. Every accident. Every bad thing that happens, paramedics are there. WHEN EVERYONE ELSE IS RUNNING AWAY FROM DISASTER, THEY\\u2019RE THE PEOPLE THAT RUN TOWARDS IT and they don\\u2019t get nearly enough credit for it. So tonight, we have a VIP REQUEST LINE taking song suggestions and dedications to individual paramedics.\\nWe also have a special guest in the place to help us celebrate this under celebrated occasion. Our host, GOBS, hangs out with his buddy, SCOTT LOYST, who is indeed a paramedic but there\\u2019s so much more to Scott than his job. He is, in fact, THE MOST INTERESTING PERSON GOBS KNOWS. Scott\\u2019s a big SKATEBOARDING ADVOCATE. He documents his visits to skate parks and posts them on his BLOG, as well as his INSTAGRAM. He\\u2019s recently been working with the CANADIAN SKATEBOARDING TEAM on a new project. He also makes art out of discarded materials he finds at the skate parks he visits. He threw a rave to propose to this wife. He has a lot of exotic pets, a killer vinyl collection, and a SELF PORTRAIT TATTOO. We\\u2019re thrilled to have him on to spin some jams. PUNK ROCKERS you\\u2019re gonna love Scott\\u2019s song picks.\\n\\nIt\\u2019s the paramedic takeover! In addition to the SKATER friendly punk jams, you\\u2019re gonna hear some 80s CLASSICS, some 90s URBAN sounds, Some EMO, some EDM, POP and INDIE ROCK. Expect NEW MUSIC from ANCIENTHRONES, CURVED WALLS, ERRA, PHANTOM HIGH, SAYDIE, YARDS, alongside tune from TRUE LEGENDS like THE AQUABATS, DOUG AND THE SLUGS, BLINK-182, BONNIE TYLER, EAZY-E, FUGEES, & PRIMUS.
