Starting point is 00:00:00 Thank you. more intimate feel of what alternative radio is all about. Our tape begins with the CFNY morning team of Humble Howard and Fred Patterson. Our morning show is about as conventional as the station ever gets. Two wacky guys, a bunch of clever contents, and some wonderful characters. Add to this lots of surveillance information, two news and sportscasts per hour, and a music mix that consists of past hits, current hits, and CFNY's specialty future hits. And you've got one of the most exciting morning shows in town. Live from Toronto, where the hula skirts and coconuts abound. Where Don Ho does his magical island songs and show every night atop the CN Tower.

Starting point is 00:03:59 Oh, new idea. Brand new thing. Mm-hmm. Oh, we got a million of them. Oh, yeah. Here's the thing. If you do any particular thing, like you can play the piano, or you're an art player, or you make sounds with your mouth or something.
Starting point is 00:04:10 Can you play the spoons? Yeah. We're going to have you perform on our show. As we do, we're going to make this like a Friday thing called Humble and Fred's Tiny Talent Time. Yes, we're going to give you several seconds to expose yourself, your talent. And after exposing yourself, we'll ask you to cover up. No, come on.
Starting point is 00:04:27 You know, maybe you can tell a joke. No, we don't want jokes. We don't want jokes. We want people who do some kind of talent, make some noise, sing a song. Well, you know, we used to do that little song thing. Oh, that's always fun. Humble and Fred's Tiny Talent Time, 870-7700. We're going to find out a little bit about you,
Starting point is 00:04:43 and then we're going to hear your little talent. You see, we can't actually play this game ourselves because, you know, we have no talent, that is. It's a beautiful sound. C'est la fin noire. That's right. The conversation we had Keep it all in Thank you. I kept it all in. I kept it all in. I kept it all in. Now, now, now. I kept it all in.
Starting point is 00:05:53 I kept it all in. Now, now, now. I kept it all in. I kept it all in. Beautiful South, and you kept it all in. From CFNY, FM 102, we've been having the Humble and Fred Tiny Talent Time auditions, and we just had a young man who unfortunately hung up, but he made these sounds with his armpit.
Starting point is 00:06:14 Yeah. Which we thought would have been fascinating, really. I haven't heard that since grade 10. Damn it. I haven't heard that since my last shower. Anyway, we have room for one more person with any kind of talent, singing, dancing, playing the piano. If you'd like to win a gift certificate from Lime Rickies
Starting point is 00:06:34 and you think you're that person, boy, oh, boy, give us a call, 870-7700. In the meantime, in traffic, it's 17 past 8. Karen Horsman is here. Just got off the phone with the TTC, and Ed tells me they're busier than usual because of a delay on westbound on Finch west of Bathurst. Their buses are having trouble getting through there, so so will you.
Starting point is 00:06:53 Again, stay clear of westbound on Finch west of Bathurst. Police are still on the scene of that accident on Lawrence eastbound at Brimley. It's in the right lane, but it's still a slow spot. The westbound Queenie is improving from Burrell Oak to Bronte. The Queenie is in good shape after Dorval, according to Bob. The eastbound Gardiner is typically busy around the Humber Bay, but no real delay. The westbound 401 is solid in the collectors from Don Mills to Young.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Now, the reason why is they have the transfer lanes closed from the collectors to the core, just west of Young Street, so you'll have to stay in those collector lanes all the way past Yonge. And that's CFNY Traffic. I'm Karen Horsman. I'll be back in 15 minutes. Well, Mr. Chicken, McDonald's white sale ends soon. True, Mr. Fish, and people won't be able to get my delicious McChicken sandwich for just $1.69 when you buy a medium soft drink and large fries. How sad. Look, Chicken Guy, they won't be able to get my tenderly filet-o-fish for just $1.29
Starting point is 00:07:42 when you buy a medium soft drink and large fries. But, hey, you swim with the flow. Till November 30th, that participating McDonald's is going to make chicken for just $1.69 or a filet-o-fish for just $1.29 when you buy a medium soft drink and large fries. You know, Mr. Fish, I need a vacation. Well, Mr. Chicken, how about across the road?
Starting point is 00:07:59 I've been there. It's time for Humble and Fred's Tiny Talent Time, where contestants aren't tiny, their talent is. And now, speaking of talentless, it's Uncle Fred and Uncle Humble. Why, thank you, Uncle Dan. Good morning, Uncle Fred. Good morning, Uncle Hum. We have a couple of very lovely young contestants with us.
Starting point is 00:08:28 And all the way from Oakville on line two, I believe this is Karen. Good morning, Karen. You. Pardon me? Good morning. How are you? Well, Uncle Humble and Uncle Fred are very good. Karen, tell us something. Okay.
Starting point is 00:08:42 What would you like to be when you grow up? I'd like to be a dancer. A dancer. A ballet dancer, I bet. That's right. Or one of those dancers you see at the airport. At the airport? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:55 You know what I mean. Anyhow, don't mind Uncle Humble and Uncle Fred, because Uncle Humble just had some cappuccino and he's starting to peak. Listen, what talent do you have? I can open a beer bottle and pour it with my mouth. You can? Wow. Wow, Uncle Fred.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Who taught you that? Your father? Your mother? My grandmother. Well, let's hear it, Karen, nice and loud for our home audience. Opening a beer bottle and pouring it with your mouth. Okay, hold on. All righty.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Did you hear it? Oh, very nice. Exceptional. Very nice. And you've got a $100 gift certificate from Lime Rickies, Karen. Great, thank you. Thank you. Hang on a second.
Starting point is 00:09:42 Oh, let's go to line one. And who do we have on the line? Hi. It's someone who'd rather not be known. Isn't that right? Yeah, well, I'm just a bit too young, you know, to be on the radio, so, you know. Would you care if we used your real name? Yeah, actually, I would.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Okay, Adam. Okay, Adam. Let me ask you a question, Adam. Do Mom and Dad make you practice your instrument too much, say, until you want to puke? Yeah, you know, they always ask me to play it, you know, and I just get tired sometimes. What's your talent, by the way? Well, I have many talents, but I play the guitar, you know. Can we hear that?
Starting point is 00:10:23 Sure. Would you like to hear a little song? You know a song called Luca? By Suzanne Vega? Yeah. That's a happy tune. Okay, here I go. Okay.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Okay. My name is Luca. I live on the second floor. I live upstairs from you. Yes, I think you've seen me before If you hear something late at night Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight Oh, very nice, Adam. Very, very nice.

Starting point is 00:11:13 If you have talent or just like to horse around with a couple of goofballs and win prizes, listen next time for all the little funsters. I'm Uncle Dan Duran. The future of rock is here. Today. CFNY. FM 102. Thank you. Take the silence, come crashing in, into my little world. Painful to me, it's right through me.
Starting point is 00:12:10 Can't you understand, oh my little girl. All I ever wanted, all I ever needed is here, in my arms. Humblin' Fred's breakfast show runs from 5.30 to 9.30 each weekday morning. It is followed by 102 Magazine, a current affairs magazine program produced by CFNY's news department. 102 Magazine is followed by Alan Cross, who offers a music-intensive midday show from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Within Alan's program is one of the station's most popular features, the all-request nooner. Here's an edited version of CFNY's 102 Magazine, followed by a sampling of Alan Cross' midday program. 102 Magazine. Good morning and welcome. I'm Mary Ellen Benninger.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Coming up on 102 Magazine today, we update the situation in the Persian Gulf, talking about dreams and negotiations and hostages. We compare crimes past to those present in Metro with a man who's seen it all. And our weekly medical checkup. That's all coming up today on 102 Magazine. There's a story going around in Bahrain that Iraqi intelligence is spreading a tale
Starting point is 00:13:41 about a dream that Saddam Hussein had. That the Prophet Muhammad told him in his dream that Saddam Hussein had, that the Prophet Muhammad told him in his dream that his guns were pointing in the wrong direction. There are some suggestions the story is to prepare Iraqis for a pullout from Kuwait. There are also some hints some of the Western hostages will soon be released, and the oil industry apparently believes something good's about to happen since the cost of crude has dropped noticeably in the past few days. Here to talk about some of these stories is Martin Shadwick. He is with the Canadian Institute for Strategic Studies. Good morning. Nice to have you back. Good morning. Thank you. Gas rationing began today in Iraq. Is that a sign the UN trade embargo is finally
Starting point is 00:14:18 working? Yes, it is. It's beginning to nibble away. It's an ironic place for them to have hit home so soon because, of course, the Iraqis are surrounded by what is quite literally a sea of oil. Their problem isn't a lack of oil, it's a lack of chemicals that are needed in the refining of automotive-grade gasolines. So do you believe that the gas rationing in Iraq will maybe strengthen resolve that may be wavering among some of the Arab nations that are taking part in the UN trade embargo? It might have that effect, but nothing dramatic, I don't think. It's going to take a while before the sanctions really begin to bear down on the Iraqis.
Starting point is 00:14:54 Now, there are suggestions out of Saudi Arabia that they may be willing to allow Iraq to hold on to some disputed Kuwaiti territory as a way to eventually end the standoff. How would Canada feel about that? The official Canadian position is still one that calls for no reward for the Iraqi invasion. In other words, they have to get out completely. What the case might be behind the scenes is still open to some question. Certainly if the Saudis and the Kuwaiti government in exile could live with something like this,
Starting point is 00:15:26 I think the Western multinational forces and others would come on board too. Thanks very much for joining us. You're quite welcome. Martin Shadwick is with the Canadian Institute for Strategic Studies and joined us from his Toronto home. Coming up next, the good guys and the bad guys from the guy who's seen it all. Game day. Los Angeles Forum, 235. guys from the guy who's seen it all. There is no glory in his job, only a lonely, fierce pride. Tonight, as always, his achievements won't be remembered in any record book. And tonight, like every night, he won't be sharing the limelight.
Starting point is 00:16:14 He will only shadow it. NHL Hockey on TSN. Real life, real drama, real TV. You're listening to 102 Magazine from CFNY. Jocko Thomas has seen it all. In more than 60 years as the police reporter for the Toronto Star, Thomas has rubbed shoulders with the city's top cops and crooks alike. He's retired from ambulance chasing now and is flogging his new book from police headquarters,
Starting point is 00:16:42 Tales from the Big City Crime Beat. And he spoke with CFNY's Barb Hanson. This is the city, Toronto, Ontario. He was a cop reporter. And this is his story. This is Jocko Thomas from Police Headquarters. From Police Headquarters, Tales from the Big City Crime Beat is the title of Jocko Thomas' new book, which chronicles Toronto crime then and now. And it documents one of the longest-running and most celebrated reporting careers from Jocko's days as a cub reporter at the Toronto Star in the early 30s to present day.
Starting point is 00:17:28 He is Canada's best-known crime reporter. How would you say that crime in Toronto has changed over the years? It seems to me it had more intrigue and appeal in the 40s, 50s, and 60s. Well, it was sensationalized more by the papers in those days because crime sold papers and circulation is the big thing in newspaper work. And so the crimes got a bigger play in the paper. Anything local got a bigger heading. It's got to be a pretty big story in Toronto now to get the headlines that we used to get on our stories years ago. So the crime was more sensationalized by the reporters then.
Starting point is 00:18:14 And it's more violent today as a result of the drug scene. The addicts have to get their money to buy their cocaine, and that's why there's so many muggings and hold-ups in which there's violence. I guess back in the 30s, though, even a store awning fire was news. That's right. We'd chase the fire trucks and write a story about the people that were forced out. They called them shirttails. The firemen used to call them I guess there were far fewer restrictions on police back then, too. on police back shots were fired. If it was a dozen shots fired, it'd get a bigger heading in the paper than if there was two or three shots. And I think sometimes the detectives involved knew that, and they'd exaggerate the number of shots they fired, they'd tell us, because they knew if they said they were fired 10 or 12 shots,
Starting point is 00:19:40 get a bigger heading on the story. Jocko, do you think that it's inevitable that Toronto will fall victim to the same sort of rampant crime and violence that prevails in American cities of the same size? Or is there anything that we can do to prevent that? Well, there isn't anything to prevent it, really, except the dedication of the police force, I guess. But as long as the drug situation grows as it has been growing, we're going to have more violent crime. I don't know whether we'll ever get as bad as some of the cities of its size in the United States.
Starting point is 00:20:16 I don't think it will because it would have by now. Was there ever any time during your career that you wanted to quit, to give it up? No, no, I didn't. I didn't even want to give it up at the end. But I got to be 75, so it was time to quit. From police headquarters, tales from the big city crime beat. Highly recommended reading. This is Barb Hanson reporting from 102 Magazine Headquarters.
Starting point is 00:21:01 CFNY's Karen Horstman is here now for our weekly medical checkup. Good morning, Karen. Good morning, Marielle. And I'm going to talk about Eating Disorder Awareness Week. It's the third annual week. And the theme of it is thinness isn't the answer, it's what's inside that counts. And I think it's a really catchy slogan, and I think it's really working. I went to a seminar last night, and the room was just jammed. It was sponsored by the National Eating Disorder Information Center. It was at the Toronto General Hospital. And the room was just standing room only, really. And they had three people up there talking about their stories
Starting point is 00:21:30 and their fight with weight. And all their stories were very different. Now, the whole evening started off by everyone in the room agreeing to, quote, what one of the speakers said, we are led to believe fitness will bring beauty, success and happiness. And this obviously can lead to obsession with food and weight if you don't reach that goal. Now, the two diseases they were talking about are anorexia nervosa and bulimia. We talked a lot about what's behind these diseases. Now, it's different for some women. This one woman was talking about how she grew up as a fat child and that other people around her labeled her as fat,
Starting point is 00:22:08 and she fought this image that everyone was telling her, her parents, doctors, her friends. So she went on these crash diets and therefore got the disease. There's other instances, which this is more popular, the psychological behind this disease, where a child might have divorced parents and they want the attention of the father, so they'll get sick. I mean, that's the way daddy will come and see you
Starting point is 00:22:31 if you're in the hospital with a tube in your arm, right? Yeah. So that's why there's not a lot of information or cures to these eating disorders because it's a very individual disease. Very personal. Yeah. So give them this number. This is the National Eating Disorder Info Center.
Starting point is 00:22:46 It's 340-4156. They can get you into some of these dynamite support groups. And after seeing what I saw last night, it was very moving and encouraging. Thanks very much, CFM Wise Care and Horseman. Coming up next, we're on base in Markey Magazine. This is Humble Howard. Fred? What? Introduce yourself. This is Humble Howard. Uh, Fred? What?

Register for your wake-up call between 5 a.m. and midnight, 870-CFNY. You know something, Fred? You're kind of cute when you pout.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Time now for Marky Magazine, a presentation of Super Scratch 21. As we heard yesterday, Tim Robbins is starring in a new movie called Jacob Ladder, and he won't tell us really what it's about or much about the character. And isn't a Jacob's Ladder something they use in a laboratory? It's biblical. It's biblical. It's a biblical reference. It's also something they use in a laboratory? It's biblical. It's biblical. It's a biblical reference. It's also something they use in a laboratory, isn't it? It was in one of the Frankenstein thing when the electrical shock goes up.
Starting point is 00:24:10 It's a Jacob's water, I think. All I know is that it is about a Vietnam veteran. He is in New York City, and he is being sort of bugged by his own personal demons, and he can't really tell whether they're real or just in his imagination. So it doesn't take place in a lab, then? No, it doesn't.
Starting point is 00:24:27 We cleared that up, then. But it does start Tim Robbins, who is better known for comedy, and who does try and get out and publicize his pictures, although after yesterday's encounter with him, we can wonder why. It ain't helping. And he is a little suspicious about publicity. I know people, and I know friends of mine,
Starting point is 00:24:46 that will be completely screwed over artistically on a film. And then when it comes around to publicity, and they don't want to do it because they were screwed over, but because they were screwed over, they get this, you know, it's this attitude of shock from the people releasing the film. Integrity in an actor? Come on, Tim.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Sheesh, welcome to Hollywood. You can tell he's married to Susan Sarandon. She spoiled him. He thinks actors are smart. Now, did they actually get married? Did they actually talk or not? Well,, welcome to Hollywood. You can tell he's married to Susan Sarandon. She spoiled him. He thinks actors are smart. Now, did they actually get married? Did they actually talk or not? Well, they had a kid. Yeah, that's exactly right.
Starting point is 00:25:30 Close enough. I think they're together. They cohabitate. I wouldn't ask Tim whether they were married. Technical, no. I mean, it would take an hour and a half and he'd never get an answer. And he wouldn't want to explain, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:40 Tomorrow we're going to talk to a woman with a little more on the ball, a little more lively. That's on Marky Magazine from CFNY. And that is it for today's edition of 102 Magazine. Our thanks to reporters Barb Hanson and Karen Horstman and to technical producer Greg Williams. Music this morning from the Thompson twins and Rosa and Schumann.

And this is just one of the many pieces of music I brought back. One of the things from another land, they are, of course, from Japan, the Flying Kids, and the song was Ware Omo Yui Ni Ware Are. And, of course, you all know what that means.
Starting point is 00:38:37 There's a phone number on this cassette sampler that I have. Maybe you'd want to call up and try to get something from them or just have the excitement of talking to a person who doesn't speak English. In Tokyo, the number is 03-746-5726. Or you can fax them at 03-746-5739. Let me know how it works out. Right now, let's continue on with another song from this sampler. Here are the Southern All-Stars with Manatsu no Kajutsu, Sukiyaki Kawasaki, and his orchestra.

And we now move to a different country. This is a country that isn't part of the Japanese chain. This is one of the Scandinavian countries, the northernmost, if I'm not mistaken.
Starting point is 00:41:52 We're going to go to Finland now. And this actual piece of music I got at a previous convention in New York, turning into a convention in New York kind of guy. This is from the new music seminar. We got a thing called Reindeer Rock from Finland and from Helsinki. We're going to start off the first of two selections. Here's Heart Hill with the Graveyard Party Blues from CFNY on Modern Music Magazine. Listen carefully. This one's in English. You may not be able to understand it very well. Peace. It's free, I'm part of the blues. That's what life is all about. Free, I'm part of the blues. That's what life is all about.
Starting point is 00:43:11 Free, I'm part of the blues. That's what life is all about. Free, I'm part of the blues. That's what life is all about. Free, I'm part of the blues. Life is all about.

Starting point is 00:43:30 The graveyard party blues The graveyard party blues. That's Hart Hill from CFNY on Modern Music Magazine. I'm the live Earl Jive with this, the final segment of the CMJ convention coverage. And a reminder to stay tuned because in February we'll have a ten part series of People I Met in San Francisco.
Starting point is 00:43:54 So stay tuned for that right here, right smack dab in the middle of the Fred Burns show. So, winding it up, the final selection here are the Jive Tones. I'm nuts over you. Yes, these guys are from Finland as well. Don Burns is next.

Starting point is 00:55:50 Too Dark Park, coming up tomorrow. Modern Music Magazine is produced by CFNY FM 102 and brought to you by Molson Canadian. CFNY. News Update. The 501 temperature, 17 Celsius. Good afternoon. I'm Rick Charles. U.S. President Bush this afternoon signed into law new clean air legislation that will, among other things, act on acid rain pollution. Bush calls it a red-letter day for Americans, but it's also a big score for Canada.
Starting point is 00:56:23 Newsman John McKay is in Washington. her day for Americans, but it's also a big score for Canada. Newsman John McKay is in Washington. And I am now honored to sign this clean air bill into law. To joyous applause from guests invited to the East Room of the White House here, Bush said today a long-awaited and long-needed chapter was being added to the country's environmental history. The new law will impose tough restrictions on smog and airborne toxics and will seek to cut in half the industrial sulfur dioxide emissions that cross the border and fall on eastern Canada. The legislation was passed by Congress last month after more than a dozen years of failed attempts
Starting point is 00:56:52 to rewrite this country's clean air laws. John McKay in Washington. Metro homicide detectives announced today that tests have confirmed and was Elizabeth Bain's blood found in her abandoned car last June 22nd. and was Elizabeth Bain's blood found in her abandoned car last June 22nd. And police, for the first time, are calling her disappearance a case of murder. She had last been seen three days before at the University of Toronto Scarborough campus. And with the assistance of the FBI, police have developed a psychological profile of Bain's abductor and killer. That profile will be used in the investigation,
Starting point is 00:57:25 but will not be revealed to the public. Police will not confirm reports that Bain was killed by a hard object, like a rock, possibly, by someone she knew. A severe backlog in the courts has put more pressure on the Metro Police, resulting in more overtime and higher costs. CFNY's Mike Cancelera tells us the police commission is concerned it may not be able to trim its budget as Metro Council had hoped. Because of Metro Council's budget crisis, the
Starting point is 00:57:50 police force was ordered to trim its own budget by seven million dollars. It's been successful in shaving about four million, but the police commission is still scrambling to make the difference. Much of the problem stems from extra overtime, a lot of it resulting from officers spending more time in court. As well, since many cases are being fast-tracked to be heard earlier, officers are spending more time serving notices to witnesses and those charged. Police Commissioner Derwin Shea says it seems as though they're paying the price for a system that's not working. Metro Deputy Police Chief Peter Scott estimates as many as 35,000 cases in Metro are at risk of being thrown out.
Starting point is 00:58:27 Officials from the Metro area municipalities meet with Provincial Environment Minister Ruth Greer this evening concerning the region's mounting garbage crisis. Metro and Peel particularly are trying to get approval for interim dump sites and had been told by the previous Liberal government that Ontario Municipal Board hearings and environmental assessments would be fast-tracked. But during the election campaign, the NDP said it would not speed up the process. Hence tonight's meeting. Peel Regional Chairman Frank Bean says the municipalities are hoping to convince Greer that fast-tracking is crucial because of the garbage crisis being so pressing. CFNY Toronto weather mainly clear and mild overnight. Low near 10.

Starting point is 01:20:01 Dumb, the show is dumb on CFMY. Woo-hoo! Thank you. Can't stop, keep on climbing, looking for what I knew. Let me tell you about Ahab, the Arab, the sheik of the burning sands. He had emeralds and rubies just a-dripping off of him and a ring on every finger of his hand. He wore a big old turban wrapped around his head and a scimitar by his side. ΒΆ. The Sheikah of the Burning Sands. You heard it here. First, CFNY FM 102. You can say that again. We're talking...
Starting point is 01:22:28 You know... We're talking, you know, we're talking, I think we're into a second segment already here. I better mark this down. I'll try to remember 925, something like that. That's where we went from Led Zeppelin into baseball. By the way, I'm Earl Jive, and this is the Weekend Wake-Up Show. We heard Dumb Dumb, the Dumb Show song by No Strings Attached, followed by Friends from Led Zeppelin's new four CD package, all remastered by Jimmy Page.
Starting point is 01:22:59 And then we heard Celebration Day from Led Zeppelin. Joni Mitchell was in there with the Jungle Line. And all of this sort of ties together in some way in that, well, Ahab the Arab by Ray Stevens followed. So it's sort of like from the jungle to the desert, and the World Series was dedicated to the boys in the Persian Gulf. Yeah. Which is Arabic land.
Starting point is 01:23:29 And then we went into the baseball situation. Dead Can Dance also with Garden of Zephyrus. And there in the background right now with the host of Seraphim.

It's a show and sale including bottles, trays, cans and labels from 11 until 3pm today and it's taking place at a

And the band is back together working on brand new material after splitting up quietly about a year ago. They're back. Probably we won't have anything from them. Probably spring at the earliest.
Starting point is 01:30:35 But it's good to hear they're back together. It'd be nice to hear some new stuff. Well, tonight, are you getting all set for our big showcase? I know we've been pumping it. We've been pumping it because we're pretty excited about all this new music, all these great new bands. It's been a bumper crop this year for music in Toronto and throughout southern Ontario, the best of which, the best we feel, will be showcased tonight at the Copa. Here's the deal. Doors open at 6 30 tonight. Showtime is eight o'clock. If you get there on the
Starting point is 01:31:03 early side, which we suggest, because there's a lot of people going. Consider there's like 10 bands involved here, and they've got all their friends and their family coming out. The whole gang from CFNY are going down there, bringing all our friends. And Don, I mean, if Don Burns is
Starting point is 01:31:20 going, you know how many friends Don has. Right there. Right there. There goes all the food, eh? So if you can get there on the early side, it'd be great. There's some food. And for $5, you see all the bands, and we're going to give you a copy of the CD and the cassette, the Modern Music Search release.
Starting point is 01:31:35 It has all the great music on there that made the finals. It's a deal. Tonight, the showcase at the Copa. We'll see you there. Tonight, the showcase at the Copa.
