Today we’re visited by singer/songwriter/radio host Sean Burns. He hosts a great show called Boots & Saddle on Winnipeg’s other great campus & community station, CKUW. That station is in the midst of their annual FunDrive, and one of this year’s most exciting station incentives is a deluxe CD recording of a star-studded show that took place late last year, called A Night of Country Music. Sean came by to talk about that in hopes of drumming up some support for their station. We sat around and swapped stories and listened to great country music for the rest of the show.

Consider supporting CKUW this week (or any time, really). With a $95.90 pledge, you can get a copy of the great CD! Visit ckuw.ca/donate

Over the holidays, most sensible UMFM hosts stay home or pre-record their shows, but I’ve never been accused of being sensible so I not only come in to do my show but usually stretch it out a little longer as well. In the past, I’ve done 5 or 6 hours, but this year I noticed something unusual: a day where nobody had signed up to come in or pre-record. That got the wheels turning and a ridiculous plan was in motion. What if I came in and did an ENTIRE day? We’re allowed to broadcast live from 11 am to 11 pm, so I asked if there was a chance that I could take it on, and they went for it. Enter: The Epic Mudge Marathon, where I got to play all kinds of stuff that I don’t normally play, including some forgotten gems and a whole pile of weird stuff that I couldn’t get away with otherwise.
