CBC radio is an absolute treasure. And Carol Off is so relaxing to listen to.

I'm a huge fan of Writers and Company, too. Eleanor Wachtel has introduced me to so many great books.

Randy Bachman's Vinyl Tap and This is That (which is in its last season -- it fooled a lot of people with its satire).

We also tune in to Cross-Country Checkup some Sunday afternoons.
