It’s a weird feeling to have Canadian indie music follow you all the way through the Appalachians, but CBC Radio 3 knows no bounds! While we don’t have a new podcast to post this week or next, CFMU 93.3FM in the Hamilton area will have a couple of new and classic mbtrg shows to listen to on-air, instead.
