Where bad is good and worse is better. Amateur Hour features the best of the worst. Artists and bands that never got their fair share of airtime for how seemingly weird, aweful or cheesy they are will finally get their due. Tune in every week to outsider artists, celeb singers, and novelty bands square off in a battle for amateur supremacy.

Radio Free Winnipeg explores the intersection between art, culture and politics.
First hour: Weather report show listings with a mix of indie, folk, blues and BAM (Black American Music)

The Meta World Stoopaloop Show is a two hour spontaneously generated sound art program exploring media, culture and chance. It uses randomness and indeterminacy to create an extended “soundscape” that uncovers hidden threads and connections and casts old culture in a new, more relevant light. Simultaneously contentful and pointless, it takes the 3 Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle) and applies them to media content. Sometimes there are interviews.
