CBC News In Depth: Tech: Internet - Podcasts: "Most of us of are busy people — we run from one event to another, multi-tasking madly, and this frenetic pace comes with benefits and costs. However, the toll these demands take on our ability to form well-reasoned opinions is one that's considerably under-appreciated. This can have consequences, not the least of which is the susceptibility to being blindly led by those who agree with our 'gut' feeling or are merely skilled at conveying their message."

. HIDDEN CITY:

One way to get a different perspective on any city is to see it through
the eyes of people who have disabilities. What's it like to get around
if you need a wheelchair, if you're blind, or if you suffer from mental
illness? What kind of help is available, from sidewalk ramps and
"singing traffic signals" to clinics and support services? This week on
Hidden City, host Nick Purdon looks at the disabled city. Head out with
him - and see the city in a whole new way. That's on Hidden City,
Saturday morning at 9:30 am (10 NT) on CBC Radio One.

Peter Gzowski: Voice of Canada - Life and Society - CBC Archives: "For three hours a day, five days a week – for 15 years – millions tuned in to CBC Radio's Morningside and Peter Gzowski. Despite Gzowski's dishevelled appearance, this beloved radio host cast his folksy charm across the country. When Gzowski died in 2002, Canadians paid tribute to the broadcaster whose stammering informality and comforting voice had become a symbol for Canada."

Assorted Nonsense � “Q” The Arts And Culture Show and Tell

Assorted Nonsense � “Q” The Arts And Culture Show and Tell: "We had a special recording from Margaret Atwood that we wanted to play during the show. It was Margaret telling Jian “not to mess up… the arts are important!” Unfortunately, the recording was done in stereo and we were using a mono computer program to play back audio material. Playing back a stereo file would require exiting the computer program and loading a stereo version of the program. I asked the studio director if there were any mono files that had to be played after the Atwood clip. He said no. So when the time came I exited the program, loaded the stereo program, and played the Atwood clip. It was about thirty seconds long. During the Atwood clip we learned that through some quirk of fate it would be necessary to play a mono file directly afterward. When the Atwood clip finished, I immediately got out of the stereo program and began loading the mono program. Jian began reading the intro to the stereo clip. Jian finished reading the intro to the mono clip. The mono program loaded at the exact same time, giving me one second to load the mono clip and fire it. Insanity! But it all sounded good on air… I think"

In From the Cold - Ryerson Review of Journalism

Ryerson Review of Journalism: "Late one morning last October, Carol Off, the new host of CBC Radio One’s evening flagship As It Happens, prepares to interview Zemedkun Teckle, spokesperson for the Ethiopia Ministry of Information. Ensconced in a recording studio in the Canadian Broadcasting Centre in downtown Toronto, she dons her headset. The wall behind her features a groovy 1970s AIH sign and photographs of past hosts such as Barbara Frum, Elizabeth Gray, Michael Enright and Mary Lou Finlay, who collectively have interviewed quirky oddballs alongside serious newsmakers for the past 39 years. Watching through a glass window in the control room, the producer and technician are thrilled with how clear the line is to Addis Ababa. Off has been to Africa many times as a reporter and knows from experience how to cover stories of war. Ethiopia has just sent military personnel into Somalia, ostensibly to train the fragile transitional government there. The goal is to prevent the Union of Islamic Courts, the group that has controlled the Somali capital of Mogadishu since June, from making headway into the country. Off is in her element."

CBC.CA - Seven Wonders of Canada - Your Nominations - Saugeen Shores Sunset, Ontario: "The people of Saugeen Shores, Lake Huron, wrote us in droves to tell us about the amazing sunsets in their neck of the woods. People in the area cite an old national geographic article as the reason there’s so much buzz about their sunsets. Upon closer investigation, no such article was ever proven to exist, but the sunsets speak for themselves. On summer evenings, locals and tourists end their day at Saugeen Shores with “ice cream and sunsets.” What could be more wonderful?"
