Radio Topics for October 28th
October 27th, 2008 Radio

Welcome to the last Tuesday of November. It is also the start of our annual funding drive. We’ll have a series of giveaways for those that call and contribute during the show tomorrow, but as an added incentive for every $50 raised during our program, Adam will run up 1 level of stairs at Dunton Tower while discussing some finer point of the topic of the day. I was the lucky bastard last year, and Padraic Ryan suffered the year before. You can here Padraic’s ascent here. So, even if you don’t listen to CKCU much, if you want to help make Adam’s lungs explode, donate a little bit. For information on how to donate click here.

At 8:15 Mike will be speaking with Andrew Cohen about his new biography on Lester B. Pearson. We will also have our usual mix of news, music, concert listings and community announcements.
