As of this Wednesday from 9 am-1 pm, Heather Bambrick is doing mid-days on Jazz FM and Jaymz Bee is back Thursday nights from 9-Midnight doing "Jazz in the City"...
It looks as is today was Ross Porter's last show...his contract ended and won't be renewed.
The new management/board of directors is taking action and there does seem to be a renewed vibe.

These are two Toronto jazz stalwarts. Glad to see!

Is this the grumpy old raspy sounding man usually on Saturday mornings? If so, thank goodness. What a dreadful creepy voice.

Good to hear they are back. I am looking forward to a live voice in the morning. Whenever that happens.

Hey Lesleyville Bill I heard about Walter but Bill King as well?
Wow...awesome!
Thanks for your posts man!
Cheers!
Great. Bill King can go on and on about how awesome he is.

Bill King coming back. Now that makes Bill a first I think for Toronto radio. He will be on Jazz FM, two weekly shows on CIUT and CFRB. That never could have happened in the past. BTW who is doing the hiring? The new board?

You may have more current information than I do, however, my understanding is that his contract goes until sometime in May. Whether he's heard on air between now and then may be another matter.
