Idols are coming

I am producing Locked Out Idol, an all-in-good-fun talent competition of the locked-out CBC staff here in Ottawa. I am having difficulties finding local musicians and music-scene personalities willing to participate in a parody of the critical Idol judges (they’re concerned about how their comments on performances by the CBC folks may affect their careers).

Rained out???

For the first time in recorded history, on-air radio talent was rained out when lingering showers forced the cancellation of today’s noon-hour performances of Locked Out Live and Radio Cadenas. According to representatives of locked-out weatherman, Ian Black, we are expecting mostly sun tomorrow, with a high of 23 celcius.

Electric Sky, in cooperation with The Canadian Media Guild, Ottawa, is proud to host the recordings of Locked Out Live by the locked out CBC talent in Ottawa.

I was interviewed by Bloomberg Newswire last week after I released I Want My CBC. The article, Canadians Watch U.K. News, Silent Games After CBC Lockout, was published today. While it quotes me, it fails to provide a URL to this site.

Did you catch them? I made two incredibly bad, and embarrassing, mistakes on the I Want My CBC I produced yesterday. On this show, I seek forgiveness for my sins… my penance-cast.

  • Introduction
  • Seeking forgiveness from Julie Delaney
  • Seeking forgiveness from Rita Celli

Danny Elfman has never worked at the CBC
