CHCH ran a 15 second commercial leading to an announcement on Friday. It's most likely Tim Bolen's replacement on Morning Live, but I'm not sure what the Tiger-Cats gear is all about.

You see a phone next to a microphone, Ticats jersey and helmet, then a hand on a counter-top next to a cup of coffee.

So I was thinking maybe CHCH was going to sponsor Hamilton Stadium, the home of the Ticats. It was called Tim Hortons Field, but that deal has ended and now just has a generic name.

But more likely, it's Tim's replacement. I've been thinking either weekend news anchor Adam Atkinson or reporter/podcaster Louie Butko would get the job. With the mic seen, it's like a podcast mic, and Louie was the weekend sports anchor before becoming the station's podcaster.

Then thinking outside the box, maybe it's former CHML host Rick Zamperin. He hosted the Ticats post-game show, The Fifth Quarter before CHML was closed down. So you have the radio mic, and Ticats link. And he has been a guest on the Sportsline podcast several times, so he knows people in the building. And we was CHML's morning show host.

All will be revealed this Friday at 8:40AM.
 

Ray Romano said on The Rich Eisen Show that he was originally cast on News Radio, but after one rehearsal, was replaced by Joe Rogan. I don't know if it was the same character they were both meant to play.

I noticed the intro to Trending Now tonight. I don't usually watch, but they now have Manesa in the opening montage for the show, while Nicole is still seen, Manesa is clearly more present, as she wasn't in the opening at all, even though she's been the defacto host for a very long time now.

I saw both on Milkman. March 5th for The Beat, and last week I think for Energy.

Corus station's 91.5 The Beat and Energy 95.3 are both looking for afternoon drive hosts. How much you wanna bet they get one person to do both, while splicing in local traffic reports in both cities from elsewhere.

Pooja and Gurdeep both have Breakfast Television listed in their bios on both of their Instagram pages now.

The panel was recorded months ago, but the actual show is new.

I've tried to see the new Hollywood Squares, and since I can't find it anywhere else, I have tried twice in two weeks to watch on Global's website.

It sucks.

Oh my god, first, you get ads that don't play, so you refresh the page. And when that doesn't work, you refresh again.

Finally, the ad plays.

Then the show finally starts, and by the time they announce the third of nine panelists, the video pauses with a circle spinning, and nothing happens.

You then lower your standards and start this whole process over again. Then you lose interest and complain on SOWNY. Global's website is garbage for watching shows.
 

Yes he was. He also did entertainment on the short lived Toronto 1 channel. I guess that posting at CHCH is for his job.

This is still weird. She hasn't been on Trending Now in a very long time. And even her social media, she hasn't posted anything new on Instagram in nearly a year. I don't have X so I don't know if she's updating there.

You would think they've had a few months, they should have made some space for CP24 in a studio.

It's been a while now that Nicole Martin, host of CHCH's 7pm show Trending Now, hasn't been on the show. Reporter Manesa Dhanabalan has been hosting for a while.
There has been no mention of her absence, but the whole opening sequence of the show is Nicole on her phone, computer, walking around outside. If she was gone, you would think they would change the opening. Just odd.
 

So it's November. Is CP24 still moving?

That's rich. Trump is on FOX after every screwup this campaign to say he didn't say what he said. Yet FOX viewing zombies only hear an interpretation of what Harris said from Trump's PR hosts.

Tonight, CHCH had a montage of photo's of their late colleague.
I don't know how long CHCH keep their streams up, but for now, you can see it at the end of the video in the link:
