Mother Corp.’s Radio One and Two have unleashed a slew of new programs coupled with the return of many of the listeners’ favourites. Making a debut on Radio One is The Omnivore, a show about culture, history, science and social relations of food and drink. Summer debut program, Wire Tap and Bill Richardson’s popular Bunny Watson both move to Saturday evenings.
On Radio Two, Eric Friesen’s new show, Studio Sparks, debuts from the new Ottawa digs, which will allow listeners a chance to join Friesen in the studio for music and discussion. And sliding in on weekdays at 9 a.m. is Here’s to You – the newly formatted edition of the hugely popular request portion of Take Five.
Special programming features for the fall include Faint Hope, a docudrama that explores the story of an Ontario prison inmate who died under controversial circumstances in 1988.
