Great podcast! Thanks. A few things... 1) Never heard it called "SPEBS"KEW"SA" before! 2) George Shields is still alive and just turned 95. He's still singing with East York Barbershoppers and is a huge in the Ontario District. He's also a member of the Barbershop Harmony Society (SPEBSQSA) Hall Of Fame. He's a super awesome guy. 3) For anyone that is interested, here's the BABS history of the first 25 years. https://www.singbarbershop.com/Handlers/Download.ashx?IDMF=3d6dfd8c-c6cc-46a9-959f-662549db6f75
