Re: [Swprograms] Fwd: [ODXA] High Definition - CBC Radio One

["Peter Bowen" <peter_bowen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually, this programme has been running for several weeks now--two,
I think. This Saturday's show will be the third.

I haven't heard it myself, as the shows showcased thus far have held
no interest for me.

But the idea of doing radio show on a tv show is interesting...

73,
Peter
