Welcome to Far Too Canadian, a Canadian music radio show based in NYC. The longest-running show on WBAR (since 1997!), it can be heard at 87.9FM on campus, or with RealAudio at www.wbar.org, Mondays, 4-6pm EST. Give me love: fartoocanadian@hotmail.com.
News updates:
Listen this coming Monday, July 15th for the first installation of Radio Madlibs on Far Too Canadian. I'll provide the story skeleton, you provide the nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, sound effects and, of course, Canadian music soundtrack. We'll collect the missing parts during the first hour, and piece it all together during the second. You can Instant Messenger the words over (using A*L Instant Messenger) to WBARRequest, or call 212-854-9944/212-854-4773. Life's all fun and games when the Immigration Office doesn't let you work full-time.
For the love of Trudeau, please ENTER THE GADDAM SONG CONTEST. To find out more about the long-over contest, look here. The dates are old, but you can still submit to the compilation, which will hopefully be ready before the end of this summer.

Check out the Rei and Vern Galleries.
Just who is this Vern anyway?!?
A section devoted to Karl Mamer, President of the Vern Fan Club (West Coast chapter)
Franglais tutorials during the Francophone editions were adopted from Karl's Petite Cage Match Lessons.
On my mailing lists, I would allow recipients an "out," if they ever wanted to remove themselves from the mailing list. The removal lines changed each week. Karl made more.
If you want to hear more of Karl himself, you can explore his own college radio archive of White Label Humour.
