Hosted by Shane and Tom, Join this weekly unique and sometimes inappropriate show between two friends. Listen and laugh with them while they share their lives with you from an odd perspective. The Squeezebox Podcast is an effortless stream of hilarious consciousness, capable of forcing outbursts that surrounding company cannot ignore.

A month ago I alerted your regular Accordion Noir host Bruce Triggs that “Weird Al” Yankovic had just released a new polka medley to celebrate the ten-year anniversary 🗓️ of the release of his “Mandatory Fun” album, and maybe ours would be the kind of speciality radio program that might air it! Bruce doesn’t do […]…

Here’s a little breather, a music-focused episode of Accordion Noir between two weeks leaning on guest interviews. Last week Bruce chatted with Emily-Rose Šárkova, and next week he’ll be talking polkas (again) with “Weird” Al! This week, though, he just played his standard mellow mix of outstanding squeezebox recordings. If your Apple or Android (o…

(different interview, but the thumbnail was so applicable to our situation we couldn’t resist reusing it.) This past Sunday we learned about a traveling accordion performer who was scheduled to be performing in our town the following night and across our country in the following days and weeks. Jaron Freeman-Fox pointed her in our direction […]…

(Note: despite the obvious superficial similarities in names and appearances, phonographs and gramophones are different things. One is the horned music player that plays from wax cylinders, and the other is the horned music player that plays from flat records. Like mixing up a VHS and a Betamax — very different!) Not content to rest […]…

The wild thing about a festival of the age and breadth of scope of our Vancouver Folk Music Festival, is that in addition to the main draw — all the incredible international performers demonstrating their regional specialities typically not on tap locally — also if you go by the “merch table” tent, you have one […]…

Greetings out there! If you were wondering what happened to this week’s episode of Accordion Noir, you’re not alone!

Perhaps Bruce meant that the accordion music is emotionally heating up in anticipation of a key change? Hot weather in July is nothing extraordinary, but hey — here’s an AI-generated illustration to underscore the theme of accordion heat by burning real electricity to negatively impact climate change and generating genuine heat at a data centre […]…

Inspiration is where you find it. Your host Bruce recently visited the dentist, and consequently last night’s episode of our weekly broadcast includes a lot of squeezy songs about mouths and the teeth in (and sometimes not in) them! After this many years of weekly episodes, it’s rare for such a starkly fresh episode theme […]…

Yesterday was the birthday of the late, great zydeco hero Clifton Chenier, so it lent itself to the occasion of an hour of accordion music, such as we air every Wednesday night on CFRO Co-Op Radio! Chenier only provides zydeco bookends to a set that wanders all over the place, musically, but it definitely informed […]…
