I occasionally tune in Funny 820 when I can't find anything else I feel like listening to. I have to admit with numbers so small you can barely find them in the ratings with a magnifying glass, I've often wondered if Bell Media was planning to stick with the format. 

And it appears I have an answer - yes, at least for now. I noticed that CHAM has finally updated its liners, the ones that I.D. the station and act as bumpers between bits. Some of them are pretty benign but one of them is just plain weird. It says something like "Funny 820 - where you'll hear the word penis in more penis jokes per hour!" Or a phrase that's equally non-memorable. 

What a strange little outfit the place has become. I'm guessing Bell doesn't know what else to do with it and it costs next to nothing to run, so the automated comedy - and the meagre ratings - will continue for the foreseeable future. And that's no laughing matter.
