Show Celebrates 25 Yrs. On McMaster's CFMU With The Same Unpaid Host

I have to admit I've never heard CFMU, the radio station based at McMaster University in Hamilton, but at least one contributor has been toiling there week in and week out for 25 years. He plans a special show this weekend to celebrate the milestone. And he's never been paid a dime for a single day of working there. 

Retired teacher Jim Marino celebrates 25 years at the helm of CFMU’s Freewheelin’ Folk show

Re: Show Celebrates 25 Yrs. On McMaster's CFMU With The Same Unpaid Host

I believe this is common for college/community radio. More impressive, in my mind, would be the 25-year veteran of commercial radio still being pad minimum wage and enjoying it.
