About jD Hey, it's jD. I'm a Toronto-based podcaster, creative producer, and lifelong Tragically Hip superfan who's been building The Tragically Hip Podcast Series since 2018. What started as a track-by-track deep dive into the band's catalogue has grown into a six-show network that's raised over $35,000 for the Downie Wenjack Fund, The Gord Downie Fund for Brain Cancer Research, and CAMH. I'm not a journalist, I'm not a critic — I'm a fan who loves this band as much as you do, and everything I make comes from that place. About Yer Letter Yer Letter is the monthly newsletter for the TTH Pods community — written for fans, by a fan. It's where I share what's happening across the network, what's coming up, and the kind of Hip conversation that doesn't fit anywhere else. No fluff, no filler — just the stuff worth reading. If you've found your way here, you already know why the Hip matters. This is just another place we get to talk about it.

Come To The Bathouse Thursday, august 20, 2026 Hey, it's jD here. Nine days until August 20th. Ten years to the day. Two things, and I'll keep both short. THE NEWS The final episode of Yer Hipstories: Reflections From The Final Tour is being filmed inside The Bathouse - the studio where The Hip made their records - on August 20th. It airs that same night at 8pm ET. I still can't quite say that out loud. THE CONTEST Three of you are coming into that room with me. Three chairs, won, not...
Where were you? Saturday, august 20, 2016 Hey, it's jD here. August 20th, 2016. The Kingston finale. Ten years on and I still can't say the date out loud without my voice doing something weird. Here's what I want from you. Where were you that night, and who were you with? That's it. That's the whole question. A living room, a tailgate, a bar full of strangers, Market Square in the rain, a hotel room in another country with a bad stream and worse wifi. Wherever you were. Whoever was beside...

Quick word before anything else. Last month's letter was a heavy one, and you answered it in a way I did not expect and will not forget. More on that near the bottom. For now, just this: thank you. I'm doing better. Now let's talk about...
