I don’t want to hold the actions of the orange rapist against American artists who mostly all hate him anyway and deserve better, but let’s promote our own first.

    I’m old(er), and living near the border allowed for access to some great children’s programming back in the day.
    Mr Dressup and Friendly Giant in particular. (side note, if you have access, check out the excellent documentary about Mr Dressup on Prime).

    As for music, again, being near the border, with one of the best alternative radio stations in the 90s (89-X), I was turned on to many excellent artists. To name a few…
    24 Gone
    The Tragically Hip
    The Pursuit of Happiness
    Bootsauce
    Odds
    Amanda Marshall
    Moist
    The Grapes of Wrath
    and so many more. Most of these bands could still easily edge out anything new on the radio today.

      Moist… There’s a band I haven’t played in a while.
