Hi Andree, Lisa, Celine, Jeff and all. Enjoying the show! Isn’t the CKCU listener takeover a ton o’ fun!? Everybody should do this at least once! So much great music in Ottawa and being created by amazingly talented Canadians. Signed, Bill, yesterday’s takeover host on tic talk. Thanks again tic, Nora and I super enjoyed the experience! Shout out to tic and his skill at the controls and guiding us through the show. Cheers!
