Thanks for listening!



Thanks for listening! It's been a great pleasure to do this show for the past five years, and I will miss coming into CIUT every week.

A big 'thank you' to everybody who helped make the show over the years, including Dan Berube, Carol Barrett, Jeanette Cabral, Siobhan Ozege, Stoney Baker, Lily Ames, Kristian Pedersen, Navi Lamba, Sean MacKay, Simon Borer, Laura-Louise Tobin, and of course, Rob Duffy.

And a special thank you to everyone at CIUT for helping over the years, including Steve Birek, Erik Betlem, Jonathan Hawkes, Michelle Johnson, Binny Colvin, and Ron Burd. Double thanks to Ken Stowar, CIUT's program director and station manager, for believing in the show, and allowing it so much time to develop a unique voice on air.

And thank you for listening! And donating!

Much love,
