This morning, I delayed an appointment because The Debaters was on the radio…read more SO giddy was I, that I sent a quick apology to my 11:30, hunkered down into my parked car, and spent a half hour voluntarily huddled on the side of the road, giggling over a coffee. And in that moment of pure radio gluttony, I knew CBC would be my #200. I'm a bonafide CBC radio fangirl. I know, I know... it's a hip and glamourous declaration indeed, but it's true. Maybe it was eight straight hours on every road trip out to Alberta; or the excitement of seeing those blue highway signs after 100km of no reception... or the summer that my cd player stopped working and I decided I was too "hip" for top 40's, instead hunkering down to the Q and As It Happens in traffic...somewhere along the lines, CBC radio one became less of a creature comfort or nostalgic outlet and more of a current obsession. Now on any given day, i'll check in to see what's what in Canadiana. As It Happens, The Q, The Debaters - all staples in my CBC fan book. But I suppose the thing I appreciate the most is the one-offs you stumble upon. Sure, sometimes there are dud programs... like the ones with the flowery poetry and the very enthusiastic someone manning a musical triangle... but often, i'll stumble upon a total gem. It might be a great yarn of a story, or something that reminds me of home; maybe i'll recognize someone, or stumble upon a local artist I hadn't heard of; sometimes it's Steward Maclean telling Dave Cooks The Turkey in the middle of the summer... the point is that it's a smorgasborg of art, culture and stories that I wouldn't otherwise seek out, but am better off for having heard them. And with world news on the hour and local every half, you can hear a grand yarn, catch up on the world, check up on what's down the street and learn how to be debt free in 60 minutes. Not too bad eh? So CBC radio, I tip my hat to you in the most enthusiastic of fashions - thank you for not changing anything about your programming long enough for me to reach an age where I finally appreciate it.

The show was very undersold, however, those who in attendance were garage rockers. It was a future…read moreglimpse of what us Strokes fans will look like in the next 20 years. I had the privilege of seeing Television last year at the Primavera Music Festival in Spain. It was one of the few curveball bookings of the festival. Most in attendance were high profile US journalists and only a few who woke up early enough in the Spanish heat check out one of influential bands of the garage scene. As much as I like Television and appreciate the music itself for some reason doesn't translate beyond 200 people. This isn't a bad thing, it is common for many bands of that genre. Live Nation took an economical dare on this booking. They guys had no touring manager (talked some sources before the show on this), no gear (everything was rented), no car (they just walked to and from the venue). They travelled with the bare bones essentials. In other words it didn't matter how many tickets they sold as there were no high costs associated with the show. The show raised moderate interest to major promotors outside festivals to take a chance on smaller bookings. They did do a decent sound check early in the afternoon, therefore, not surprised that they executed the songs well on rented instruments. The sound mix, in spite of them not having their own house mixer, was decent. Then again most bands sound good at the Commodore. The band was very toe gazer and there wasn't much to see beyond the first 20 minutes, however, there was still something captivating. P.S. Meeting the guys before and after the show was a cool treat.

It's an interesting and fun cooking show to watch -- so personally and authentically done. Visual presentations of the various recipes are so well-performed, and despite the language barrier for us, are usually quite easy to follow for the 'what' and 'how' of each. An enjoyable break from what's on the dial elsewhere at this time.

This company is not truly Canadian anymore, and when I filled an official complaint, they blocked me. The company does not hire persons with disabilities apparently, and they should put that in the application form. I don't think a company can continuously put a "denied" for several years without officially noting an official reason. I also wrote a note to the Variety Club as they receiving donations from Global/Corus, and at the same time, Tina Iammarrone of Corus Entertainment is making sure my disability prevents from employment at the company? It does not make sense to deny a person with a vision disability from employment.
