This weekly 30-minute show is a chance to talk with farmers, food producers, chefs, consumers, thinkers, gardeners, hunters, processors and many others about our relationship with food.

14:00 - 16:00 - Classical Tones - Classical Tones / Tonos Clasicos is a weekly two-hour bilingual show of classical music "with a Latin connection". Every work played has some connection to Spain or Latin America, typically the composer and/or the performer(s). Much of the programming is music that is rarely or never heard on most classical music radio shows. Each piece is preceded by a minute or two of interesting information about it, first in Spanish, then in English.
16:00 - 17:00 - One Art: A Fiction Podcast - Do you like great fiction? Would you like to write great fiction? One Art explores the craft of writing, with each episode tackling a different element of fiction. Created by Lisa Moore and Olivia Robinson, each episode also features a panel of local authors sharing work produced exclusively for the episode!

22:00 - 00:00 - 33, 45, 78 - Steve Fruitman has been programming Canadian roots music programs for 25 years. A folklorist and ardent Canadian music collector, his programs hit the nation's nerve centre passionately on each and every show. Connecting fiddle music with singer-songwriters, blues and jazz, country and folk seemlessly (very often in one program). It's the only radio program officially endorsed by Stompin' Tom Connors.
