get your daily dose

This week I saw a very funny show called Flight of the Conchords. In the same vein as Tenacious D, and The Lonely Island, these lads from New Zealand write the most hilarious tongue-in-cheek lyrics. The show is airing on HBO, but for a few more days you can watch the first episode online.

I think Jemaine is quite reminiscent of a young Mick Jagger.

If you need your mood lightened further, Ember Swift has a song that I can totally identify with today. Have a listen to the Underwear Song on CBC Radio 3.

I want my BNW

I read in the news this week that CBC is ditching Brave New Waves in mid-March. Their logic tells them that this will help them attract more listeners between 40 and 65.

I think their logic stinks.

Anyone in this age group that listens to the radio in the middle of the night may very well appreciate BNW.

Brave New Waves is the best radio show I have ever heard. Even without Patti Schmidt, it is still so worth listening to.

In between sobs, I am writing emails to Brave New Waves and CBC's head office begging them to change their minds.

Maybe we have taken BNW for granted, and haven't told them how much we love and appreciate them.

If you have ever enjoyed BNW, I encourage you to let them know. Especially if you are between the ages of 40 and 65.
