    It’s another Halloween and time for the Annual A-PAC Halloween Special of 2010. Practically every Halloween since 2002, Tim Morgan, the Almost Professional Amateur Comic, has been scaring the laughs out of listeners on his yearly spook special. This year he’s got a new spooky sponsor, a spooky prediction for the future, the always spooky, and usually gross, Darwin Awards, spooky yet funny ghost stories and rumour has it Tim is going to be returning to the haunted spooky town of Corpston after 8 long years.

    What do Winnipeggers know about this company? CKUW volunteer and Council of Canadians-Winnipeg Chapter Chair, Michael Welch, will present his research on the pros and cons of dealing with this firm.
