The How Do You Do Revue on CKUW 95.9 FM

On this week's Revue, it's off to Toronto to play some music from the Big Smoke. Plus a salute to Kris Kristoffersen, who announced his retirement this week.

On the show this week, we chatted with Churchill musician Roy Mexted about the upcoming online Churchill Variety Show. This, plus a happy 20th birthday to the Times Change(d) High & Lonesome Club. Short ‘n sweet!

I’ve always said my memory lane is a well-worn path. If you’re a regular listener to this show, you’ll know that to be a fact! This week, I recall the time the World Wrestling Federation came to Winnipeg back in February of 1994, which was the same weekend that our Churchill Atoms hockey team flew down to the city to play some games, and by a crazy coincidence, the wrestlers were in the same hotel as us. Incredible. Between that and some video game tunes, this is right in the ol’ wheelhouse. We also showcase a new project by Elliot Britton called Data Tonka, and we’ll let you know all about the Manitoba Book Jam coming up next week featuring good pal Darren Ridgley. Waxing nostalgic always.

I suppose the holidays are over now. What does that mean in 2021? Well, it means the NHL season is only a week away! We’re still living in Bizarro World, that’s for sure. We start the show with some songs from the 1996 compilation album “Hockey Rock: Winnipeg Style”, and along the way we’ll celebrate best friend of the show Tim Friesen’s birthday, and we’ll travel back and forth between Winnipeg and Brandon (songwise, that is). Go Jets Go!

Happy New Year, everyone! I don’t think people have been so anxious to let a year go than 2020. So, 2021 it is. And it starts off with another fun episode as we’re joined by Sonny Ennis for another round of bullshitting and playing some of our favourite tunes from the east coast. I sure hope we’ll hear him on this program some more. Go Canada Go!

This was our 2020 Newfoundland Christmas Special! Sonny Ennis is my former co-host on a show we did almost 15 years ago on CBC Radio in Churchill called Shot For Shot Wednesdays and he also is no stranger to the airwaves in Central Newfoundland as he hosted Homebrew on 650 VOCM, and Sundays With Sonny on K-Rock. He joined us from Gander, NL to talk about the holidays on the Rock, and what make them an absolute riot. We also played some of our favourite Newfoundland Christmas tunes. And yes, we yammered on just like old times. Music & Friends! I hope your day was filled with that also.
