Hi Manmohan, I’ve been a bit of a stranger! This is one of those rare Sundays when I’m not at my weekly run. I often listen when I’m out and about but it’s difficult to dictate a message when I’m in a noisy place. Good to know that T.I.E. Is still going and that hosts are back in the studio—even if the door is a bit of a challenge.

Hi Shelley Ann! Great hearing from you. Yes, we're still at it and have added Alka to our collective. So happy you're listening live.

Glad y'all made it in Man'! Nothing beats real live, even those clever CKCU silence detector robots. I am picturing you leaping over pits of angry cobras, swinging over the Gorge of Death and Other Bad Things on a rickety rope, outwitting the dreaded Sarcasm Monster, and of course The Killer Rabbit!!

Hey PeeBee!!!! Can you imagine what it would be like if I was trying to get through the door? I’d probably still be on the other side, cussing and swearing. I’m glad that Manmohan got in. Clarice is also listening in.

Hi Neil and his dancing Labrador. I love the image of dancing dogs. I also love "Go global or go home" - should be our slogan for our program!

Hi Robert. Wow, thanks! LOL re. the 'door-wait'. I hope you weren't late. . I absolutely love Can. Future Days is possibly my fave, although the three classic LPs are all epic. I appreciate the feedback.
