MEDIA-RELATED STUFF

    Enjoyed listening to CHVN Winnepeg the other day. They also appear to be a good source of Christian news.

Glad 91x Belleville has "Harrowsmith Radio" and "The Earshot Daily."

97.7 Moose FM Bancroft has Blue Jays baseball. Were this any other year, I'd be happy about that.

Enjoyed Sean Kelly's "Weekend Magazine" interview with former CFRA jock Ken "The General" Grant, right up until they got into talking about U.S. politics.

However, I've got nothing but good things to say, based on what I heard, about the program Sean Kelly and Greg Molton had on CJBQ playing independent musicians for the first couple months of the pandemic response.

If anyone is interested in buying a radio station 2 million dollars in debt, G-98 Toronto is for sale.

Curious Westwood One News is being shut down. You would think that would be something that could make money for Cumulus.

Have been reading some nostalgia blogs the past couple weeks, the blogs themselves being nostalgic because any present-day things to which the blogs I've been reading make reference are from around ten years ago.

I've also been downloading a lot of videos from channels dedicated to TV clips, mainly from the seventies to the 00s and somewhat the past decade. Glad there are so many folks on YouTube preserving this broadcast history.

As far as current television goes, I've watched some via U.S. TV Go the last few weeks. It's a nice, easy-to-use platform. Wish I could find a Canadian equivalent.
