Barenaked Ladies’ Steven Page, Dr. Brian Goldman and Ian Hanomansing highlight diverse summer programs starting June 25
CBC Radio is offering Canadians a variety pack of programming this summer. From Monday, June 25 through Sept. 2, listeners will enjoy a diverse mix of topical, entertaining and thought-provoking original shows.
“From soccer, to music, to insights about our healthcare system and the environment, this summer’s programs give Canadians the choice they’re looking for-both fun and in-depth-and cover the topics that matter to listeners,” said Jennifer McGuire, executive director of programming, CBC Radio. “We’re showcasing new programming that entertains, inspires and challenges.”
Health and the environment are front-and-centre, with new programs such as WHITE COAT, BLACK ART, Dr. Brian Goldman’s provocative behind-the-scenes look at the healthcare system, and FEELING THE HEAT, a look at how individuals can assist in battling climate change, hosted by CBC News anchor Ian Hanomansing. Also new to the summer schedule is Steven Page’s take on fads and trends in ALL THE RAGE, and an inside peek into the hearts and minds of footie fanatics in the drama series Y SOCCER.
CBC Radio 2 continues its new mix of evening music programming over the summer, building on the momentum around CANADA LIVE with a seven-week special, Canada Live at Canada’s Festivals.
