Referendum? Gagged.

The world may be ending, but it’s Joanie’s Special day!!!

J🎨 is a Black British-Canadian artist whose journey began in the vibrant streets of London before finding a new home in the tranquility of Calgary, Canada

ZENON a bi-racial, non-binary, Neo-Soul singer-lyricist whose lush vocals and meaningful writing create music that mirrors real life, unfiltered and ever changing. Their emotionally rich narrative turns vulnerability into verse, and chaos into poetry. Whether it’s a slow burn or banger ZENON’s soul is in the music.

Welcome back to a special Edition of SHIP ARCADE!

The CJSW funding drive is this month! As always we’ll be holding a raffle with prizes including a Nintendo Switch donated by Pabst Blue Ribbon along with several local businesses. Do you feel lucky?

Ship Arcade Video Game Trivia also returns with a whole new set of snarky questions about the minutiae of VIDEO GAMES. With prizes for first, second, and third place and Tricky Towers sudden death in the case of a tie!

We’ll have our full assortment of retro consoles, including NES, SNES, Genesis, PS1, N64, GameCube, PS2, Wii, and Xbox 360, with dozens of games for each.

And mid-bar will be the ever popular fighting game setup with a curated selection of modern fighters and quality fighting sticks.

Next to that will be our arcade setup with over 800 classic arcade games and support for up to 4 players. Maybe you’ll finally beat Konami’s The Simpsons!

On the 4K big screen will be 8 player Super Smash Bros. Ultimate with every fighter and stage unlocked. Steve from Minecraft vs. one of the dozen Fire Emblem characters!

On the official Ship & Anchor PS5 sponsored by Pabst Blue Ribbon we’ll have a selection of modern sports tiles from EA.

And on the main stage we’ll have our 4-8 player Steam indie game setup with games perfectly tailored to make you shout or laugh, like Duck Game, Gang Beasts, Ultimate Chicken Horse, Stick Game, and many more.

Grab a tall can of PBR for just $6, and fuel up with corndogs and stadium ‘chos, while you support local independent radio and VIDEO GAME with us!
