Join us on 09/09 as we switch off something old and switch on something brand new

When I was a kid, I was fascinated by any radio station making a change. Whether it was a move to a new studio, a change of frequency or a new format, I wanted to be there for the moment of the transition to see what it was like. I think many blind people who have grown up with a love of radio feel the same.

That’s why we’re making a bit of an occasion out of a big change at Mushroom FM.

Revisiting Buffy Saint-Marie and More, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Yes, it's time once again for another encore presentation from the CBTH archives. This one's from this past June, and it features the amazing career and artistry of Buffy Saint-Marie, as well as some songs from Quebec. We were celebrating National Indigenous Peoples' Day here in Canada, as well as Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day in Quebec. It was an interesting episode for me to do, I think that Buffy's work is very topical right now, and I hope you enjoy reliving it, or perhaps living it for the very first time!
