This is about to start airing as I post this. Still, I can't help but wonder - they're not changing format until midnight Monday. 

Why are they airing this special at 10 AM on a Thursday morning? Wouldn't Sunday make more sense? 

I'm on Nord VPN and it's working fine. Are you able to try choosing a "second location" on your network? Sometimes a different city works, especially NYC. 

Only other suggestion is try another site for the audio. There are many that provide WCBS on air. That might work. They also announced it will be repeated on the weekend, so you might be able to hear it then. And they say it could be posted to their website eventually. 

The weird thing about this special is it's all about these veteran news people fooling around on air, replaying bloopers and memories of their famous moments together. There is no news at all, but they're still stopping for weather and traffic.

I just heard SOWNY member Chris Mavridis reporting on the Canadian rail strike from right here in Toronto during the top of the hour CBS newscast. Nice that he got on the final few days of Newsradio 88. Sorry it had to be about that!

He's a really decent guy and I'm glad to see he's achieved such heights. 

I couldn't get the entire three hours - which consisted of employees past and present saying a fond farewell to the old gal at 880 and playing some memorable moments and bloopers. But here's the last minute of the great goodbye, which led into - what would you expect? - the top of the hour CBS News. 

Hear it here.

Thanks BB. I knew someone would eventually post it.
