Hey friends! 👋😊

This is the last week to vote in @CultMTL's annual Best Of Montreal poll and I'm asking you to find in your booming, glowing hearts to consider radio weirdowonder @CJLO1690AM for Best Radio Station.

But that's not all...

1/x
Last year, when the results were announced, I noticed that there wasn't a SINGLE woman/nonbinary/gender non-conforming host in the top ten for Best Radio Host.

That's..... wild! There's so much talent in the city! And there's so much talent at @CJLO1690AM

2/x
Take Julia Warren, host of Jazz Island, every Sunday at noon. Not only does Julia have great taste, but she helps diversify our music programming by introducing us to great jazz performers making music in the city.

Masheyla Anderson used to be our Women's+ Collective Coordinator (yes, we have this and it's FABULOUS) but now hosts Gothic Runoff, every Tuesday at 11:00AM. The show is wildly entertaining, hypnotic, and hilarious as hell. https://www.mixcloud.com/gothic-runoff/1091719/
Renita Bangert hosts @5SongsWith, every Tuesday at 3:00PM. I'm always so excited to listen to this show because Renita crafts her program like an Easter Egg hunt. So richly rewarding and informative.

OK, whenever I play Dad Rock on my show, it's kinda dumb. But whenever Jasper, host of Party at Marpiter every Tuesday at 5:00PM, plays it, it's so cool. Jasper digs through our vault and plays CDs + records we forgot we had to bring you a wild-ass show

The most pure show on radio, it's Last Stop This Song on Wednesdays at 11:00AM with your lovely hosts Lisa and Jessica Rupnik. Two sisters with amazing taste and most wholesome banter. They asked my opinion about The Band, so I have no choice but to stan

Gotta give it up to @aviva3636, host of @thealleycjlo on Wednesdays at 2:00PM. Her theme song is one of my favourites on our lineup and she loves Nick Drake as much as I do so game recognizes game, Aviva.

What can I say about @patriciapliang host of Fatal Attraction on every Thursday at 11:00AM? She recently got a nod from Montreal superstar/funniest person alive @TrannaWintour. A ridiculously engaging show with soothing meditations on just about anything

There are many, many, MANY people in the @Allisono340 Fan Club, and I would be fighting MANY people for the position of President. But, here I am, making my case, because Transistor Sister, every Tuesday at 6:00PM, is one of the best programs around.

And finally, there is I, the little dumb host of Superconnected on Mondays at 11:00AM, etc. etc.

But please, take a moment to reflect on the great women/NB/gender non-conforming people making amazing radio in Montreal before you cast your ballot in the @CultMTL poll!
