The Tea Makers
They offered me the office, offered me the shop. They said I'd better take anything they'd got. Do you wanna make tea at the CBC? Do you wanna be, do you really wanna be a cop?

It’s a Bachman hand off to Stroumboulopoulous, and then the few listeners left fall into a drunken stupor until their clock radios with their single setting of last-station-played wake them up in the early morning host Bob Mackowycz takes over the R2 Morning mic.
There’s the target: Mackowycz in the morning. Strombou is just a lead-in.
The Ceeb even tries to lessen the blow on the eminent soprano and Tempo voice-follower Nesrallah by saying “So Shift will run from 1pm to 3:30 Monday to Friday. This means a shorter version of Tempo, which will now air from 9am to 1 pm. (Tom’s first hour on Shift will feature classical music though, so the music at that time stays the same.)”
But see the comments on the changes at http://www.cbc.ca/radio2/programs/r2morning/2009/11/06/news_flash.html where one of 76 comments is : …”Bob Mackowitz is more interested in himself than in music and I already tire of his voice and anecdotes.”
Meanwhile the George non-fans get their kicks in at http://www.cbc.ca/radio2/programs/strombo/2009/11/08/strombo_launch.html
I went up to check on them and they’re still up there.
Tat was nearly a full minute! Even the cameraman wasn’t too sure what to do, you can see him panning around in a quiet panic.
Oh my God! How embarassing! Did the A.D. get the timing wrong? Or was there a technical problem playing back the commercial? Dying to know.
