THE CURRENT PODCAST



Friends:  What is that white stuff falling from the sky?  It's certainly not seagull feathers nor down from a Canada Goose - darn, it must be - it IS - SNOW!!!  OK, so whose idea of a cruel joke is this?  The Olympics are over, we trucked in snow from all over the place to local mountains because there wasn't any there, and now, when we are just breaking out the lawn mowers, this happens!

What a crazy place to live!!

Oh well, fortunately for you, the weather outside can be forgotten as entertainment is but a click away with this week's podcast from your friends at DonsPodRadio/CKW.

Today marks the beginning of a brand new feature I know you will enjoy - around the 54 minute mark of the program, AL MURPHY begins what I know is going to become a very popular segment - SPORT DE JOUR!  And, to whet your appetite for more, more, more - at the end of each commentary, Al poses a trivia question - the answer of course, provided the following week.  (I have no idea what the answer is to this week's poser).  So, have a listen and enjoy!

Also, you can look to the main site of DonsPodRadio for this week's SPORT DE JOUR segment, as well as to the Best Of Murphy website for the whole collection, starting later in the week.

Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced in the speech from the throne that he was contemplating changes to the wording of O Canada!  The backlash was immediate and within 48 hours, the idea was shelved.  Dean and Hatch (ROCK 101 - Vancouver) had their own idea of changes to the anthem and they can be heard here, around the 30 minute mark of this week's show.

James Murphy drops by with the Motown Moments segment, Michael Godin with Rock and Roll News, Joey Day with the J-DAZE Double Play of the Week (Del Shannon), Al Murphy with Retrospective and Sport de Jour and me(??) - well I have the TV Tune of the Week.

Oh yes, somewhere in the midst of all this high priced talent, I also drop in with the "little rock" part of the show - music I know you are going to enjoy!

So, what are you waiting for - click on the link for A LITTLE ROCK, AND A LITTLE TALK.

YOUR HOSTS WITH THE MOST
(ONE FROM THE COAST)


Big Daddy Donald Roberts



The Little Irishman, Al Murphy

Donald Roberts:  I am a retired print plant manager, with a love of music and radio - in 1967 I went to broadcasting school, and earned a diploma. Then real life kicked in, and I found a job at a printing company, where I stayed for the next 38 years. I have always had some kind of home studio, and it is there where donspodradio was born. Now I can do what I love, and do it for people who also love the music and listen to our program each week.

Al Murphy is also a retiree from the same company - Don was in Manufacturing and Al in Human Resources!  Al resides in Fergus, Ontario, which is a little bit west of Toronto - Don on the other hand, lives in Coquitlam, British Columbia, a bedroom community of Vancouver. When donspodradio hit the web back in February, 2006, Al was the very first visitor - it wasn't long before he had recorded some promos for the station, and as they say, the rest is history. Now, every week Al drops by on the 20's with RETROSPECTIVE - his look back at issues of interest to him, and we hope, you as well.

Every once in a while, Al either co-hosts a program, or takes over entirely - and his love of the music and information of the times shows through!  It takes a bit of engineering to stretch the string tight between the two tin can microphones that link our studios, but it is well worth the effort! 

So, please join Al and me weekly, as we rock to the sounds of GREAT OLDIES - 65 minutes each week - right here!  Over THREE YEARS in podcasting, and still going strong!  We hope you enjoy the weekly program and will take the time to email us at dpr.adio@hotmail.com - dpr.ckw@gmail.com or through this service provider.

Rock on.

STUDIO A - CKW/DPR

THE HEART OF ROCK AND ROLL - THE DONSPODRADIO/CKW STUDIO

DONSPODRADIO/CKW STUDIO


After almost a year working from a rather confined space, I tore the studio apart and rebuilt it almost from the ground up.  The result is a studio that is very user friendly, and that has all the bells and whistles that I need to produce a very professional sounding podcast

The addition of a second turntable will allow for "all vinyl" shows any time the urge hits.

The shack out back is full of great old records, all just waiting for air play.
