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.
Ten years on — let's gather in Kingston.
