I always enjoyed her panels but I found, at times, she spoke with such lightning speed that I had no idea what she was talking about. Today's show was great! Good luck to her and looking forward to Graham Richardson.

Haribo Gold Bears. I like raspberry the bestest! 

Heather Seaman just finished off her Newstalk 1010 report with an ad for the dom-a-NEE-kin Republic.  Good grief.

Back in the late '80's, while attending King's in Halifax, I had a PT job doing traffic reports for the morning and afternoon shows on CBC. The reports were local and, if you can believe it, we relied on a CB radio with input from traffic reporters driving around, as well as truckers and the interested public. I sat at my little desk in that historic building, gathering information, quickly typing it out and running my sheet into the studio.  The hosts of the afternoon show hated it because those shows were national and "no-one across the country cares about the damn Armdale Rotary at rush hour".  But it helped me with my KD and Bologna costs while earning my journalism degree.

If not for streaming, I would be sitting in my office in NS pining for the days where I would be sitting in the Gardner traffic going to and from work listening to my favourite radio station. 

I watch Corrie and a few years back one of the bad-un characters was a hospital radio host/DJ.  It was interesting to see him at work. 

Hey mic'em!  Fellow S'sider here.  Many a night was spent listening to CJRW waiting to tape my favourite songs!  I had no idea there were such shenanigans going on in that little studio!

The article makes much more Murphy-esque sense.  Ryan Murphy always has some twist. I might continue to watch with this in mind. 

Glad to see someone took the highroad and included Jenn Valentyne.  Great video!

And Rossif Sutherland.  A very good actor in his own right.  I think it is safe to say this is a Canadian Dynasty. 

What I like about the female lead is that she is not impossibly beautiful and she doesn't wear low-cut tank tops and heels during her day-to-day job.

As a fellow fan of the Cobbles I think CBC has done a pretty good job of keeping it about 2 weeks behind for the last 10 years or so.  Before that Corrie was preempted for hockey playoffs and the Olympics and any sort of World sporting event.  That meant Corrie could be anywhere from 3 to 6 months behind.  To catch up, they began showing hour long episodes 5 days a week.  Once they caught up with a 2 week delay they cut back the airing of episodes.  It's been ok ever since.  So hopefully CBC will find a way around it.  I do know that they also repeat the day's episode at 12:30 am.  And there's the omnibus on Sunday.  I PVR it so hopefully the magic machine will catch it whenever it's on. 

I agree about Amanda Galbraith.  Between the laughs, the hyper-speed talking and the melding of words I have found her to be unlistenable. 

The other person who seems to find glee when reporting serious news is Victoria Matiash.  When she covers the newsbreaks she has the unmistakable sound of someone who has a smile permanently planted on her face. 

I really liked him.  It was a weird direction to take considering the stable of guest hosts they could have used.  The tone seemed to suggest that he is being given the opportunity to be the new permanent host.  Otherwise, why would they put someone on from BC with Coach Turner sitting with him silently guiding and helping him through?  

That list is very interesting.  I'm surprised there are so many Super Bowls but I'm also surprised that Michael Jackson's Halftime Show numbers were extricated from the overall numbers for that specific game.  Would the Super Bowl numbers not automatically include the Halftime Show?  And if not, are the ratings calculated as an average over the fluctuating numbers during the entire viewing period?  Sorry for the weird questions, but I find this fascinating.
