I really miss the traditional 40 minutes of uninterrupted folk. That was the cornerstone of the Canadian Spaces success and it seems to have become a rarity. We used to look forward to 10 am on Saturdays but now we often tune out after the 7 to 10 Saturday morning show. yes, there are interesting people to talk to, but 1040 to 12 is still a long time. Thanks for hearing me out. Ken

Thanks for your comments, Ken. I've received various opinions about the format and content of the show. It's nice to see the level of interest! I believe you signed up a while back to co-host an episode. That would involve selecting and commenting on the music, and suggesting and interviewing guests. Please contact me at chris@folkzone.ca and let's make it happen.
