My application for a new show on CJTR
Title:
Rewind Regina: That’s My Wonderful Town
Style or content of program: Briefly describe the nature and aesthetic of your proposed program.
A light-hearted look at the people and places of Regina past. With a wide variety of local guests of all ages, we babble about the fun and strange events, people, and places that have occurred in this town. Part nostalgia, part silliness.
Please attach a detailed description of your program idea and/or an example playlist:
Lifelong Regina resident, author, and humourist David Robert Loblaw invites local guests of all ages to reminisce about the funny and bizarre stories of this town. His extensive list of fascinating people covers every decade of living memory. As every city and town has its share of secrets and scandals, this show illuminates Regina’s past in an entertaining, quirky way. Loblaw’s nonsequiturial style of conversation leaves guests off-kilter, leading to surprising revelations.
Broadcasting, programming, musical experience qualifications: What are your credentials for hosting a radio program?
From Radio/TV Arts classes to a near film degree at UofR, I worked in radio and television for several decades, mostly at CKCK-TV. I’m a published author (twice-finalist for Sask Book Awards), Fringe Theatre playwright & performer, professional scriptwriter, podcast interviewer, and media commentator. I have no musical ability, not even allowed to play the triangle in grade school.
Additional Notes: Please provide additional information you feel is important for the review of this application.
My preference is an hour-long show, but thirty minutes is fine. Showtime can be any weekday from 6pm onwards, plus most of Saturdays and Sundays.
