Sunday's Radio Classic
Sunday Night on CJNU means Jack Benny and all the gang on 'The Lucky Strike Program'. This program, from April 27, 1952, stars with Mary Livingstone, Dennis Day, Phil Harris and the Orchestra, Rochester and Don Wilson. The comedy skit is based on the movie, “Bend In The River”. Jack plays the role of Buck Benny, and his special guest for the show, is Jimmy Stewart, who starred in the movie. Mel Blanc is also heard. For our musical offering, we bring you a 'G. I. Journal' broadcast in 1945. The show took the format of a newspaper, and each week they had a different City Editor. On our show tonight, Kay Kyser is the editor of the paper, and brings with him his orchestra and his regular female vocalist, Georgia Carroll. More.
CJNU features nostalgia music and feature programs 24 hours a day at 107.9 FM in Winnipeg, on MTS TV Channel 725 throughout Manitoba, and everywhere in the world through the streaming live audio available through this website. Just click on Listen Live in the left hand column.
We've been on the air now for over five years, but there are still many people who remain unaware of the existence of Winnipeg's only Nostalgia Music station that plays the music that was popular in the 1940s, '50s, '60s, and '70s. That why we take every opportunity to let people know about CJNU and the unique sound we offer.
We were out spreading the word at the Age and Opportunity Housing Expo on May 4. We greeted hundreds of people at the event, and gave each person one of our fridge magnets. We also signed up a couple of volunteers and enrolled 20 new members who each took home some wonderful rewards donated by our generous sponsors - the Winnipeg Goldeyes, McNally Robinson, The Oakwood Cafe, Eco Green Lawn Services, The Shiners' Khartum Circus and the Gimli Fish Market. We'd appreciate it if you could help us Spread the Word about CJNU Nostalgia Radio.
Our host sponsor for May is the Canadian Mental Health Association, Manitoba Division, part of a nationwide, charitable organization that supports the mental health of all and supports the resilience and recovery of people experiencing mental illness. The CJNU broadcast studio is located this month in their offices at 2633 Portage Avenue.
