I mentioned a few weeks ago that Dave Pratt was in contract negotiations with the Team 1040 radio in Vancouver. His contract ended on August 31 and up until today, it appeared at an impasse. Well it’s official apparently. The Vancouver Sun has just reported that Dave Pratt is no longer on the Team 1040. […]
I want to list some of the best apps for mobile devices which give you great listening to the various Vancouver radio stations. If you’re one of the lucky people who got in on that cheap tablet, the HP TouchPad, you just got yourself a nice little Vancouver radio player. I got in on the […]
Not sure what it is but this past Friday I once again called into CKNW afternoon show. Ever done a call in to a talk radio program? The topic was with Sean Leslie and the security cameras that the city has, but doesn’t use often. This is a real burn my britches type of topic […]
File this one away as baffling. I read a recent Vancouver Sun article which discussed the politics and behind the scenes issues that arise from massive corporate ownership. You know, the companies that own a bunch of other companies and there becomes overlap and competitive issues. It’s like a big rats nest of ownership and […]
I’ve been checking in more lately with the CKNW afternoon show. What can I say? It’s slow in Canucksville and sometime it’s more interesting listening to stuff that matters. Well I’ve heard some rants from Gord MacDonald. As in, over the top style rants! Whatever the case last week he had me swearing at the […]
I’ve said it before but when it comes to Vancouver talk radio, if you’re boring as a person, you are going to be doubly boring as a talk radio host. The furthest example you can find on the Vancouver airways right now is Dave Pratt from Team 1040 sports radio. You want an interesting personality? […]
I really have started to enjoy Sean Leslie on the weekends. I must say I was terribly disappointed when CKNW took David Berner off their station. If you don’t know who David Berner is, I suggest you check out his website here. I just learned that Mr. Berner now has his own show on Shaw […]
Update: You can now see the official Simi Sara host page on CKNW here. Wow, talk about funny. Just a couple days ago I posted regarding CKNW and your favorite hosts. In addition I mentioned how amazing Simi Sara is and that she would be an amazing addition to the CKNW line-up. Well I’ve just […]
Personally I love talk radio. It’s hard to find a much better station than CKNW 980 when it comes to talk radio. I can’t say there is a host right now that I’m disliking, at least of the local hosts. The national shows I could do without but for our local CKNW AM980 hosts who’s […]
What’s your choice for Vancouver Canucks radio post game show? I generally go with Dan Russell and CKNW. It’s been my own tradition but what about yours? Do you stay up past midnight listening to Vancouver Canucks playoff post game shows? I will say that Vancouver radio does a great job at covering the Vancouver […]
