The Wavelength
Monday November 15th, 2021 with Joe Reilly
It's CKCU's 46th birthday so some songs about the radio and lots of indie music. And it's the 19th anniversary of my Mom's death so some songs for Mom!

Today's show is dedicated to CKCU, as the station started broadcasting on the FM band 46 years ago today. The show is also dedicated to my Mom, because 19 years ago on this date, she passed away after a long battle with Alzheimer's Disease. So in the first hour of the show we feature songs about the radio and lots of independent music for you to enjoy. Hopefully this music will inspire you to make a donation to our annual funding drive. We've fallen short of our goal and need everyone to please make a donation if you can afford to do so.

Some songs are sad, some are inspirational and some are complex musings on life and death. I hope you enjoy them. Thanks to everyone who has donated to the station to date. Your support is greatly appreciated.
