In A Mellow Tone
Wednesday November 9th, 2022 with Ron Steeds
Funding Drive Episode #2 and a Fond Farewell
I've been a host at CKCU-FM for almost 40 years hosting four jazz programs. I've enjoyed every minute and learned so much along the way. There are too many people to thank for all the support and guidance to name here but it all began with Jacques Emond, who invited me into the station to co-host his show Night Train (that I would later go on to co-host). CKCU-FM is a special organization populated by special, dedicated people who give their time to maintain the "richness" of this station. Please consider donating to keep this station on the air for another year. Thank You!
