Reg­gae, gospel, folk, soul, latin, meren­gae and so on are the the gen­res that we dish out. We also pro­mote home grown artists with inter­views and bring them to the pub­lic to show­case their tal­ents and work. We also bring you news and events that hap­pen in and around of our soci­ety as the radio is a Cam­pus and Com­mu­ni­ty Radio. In a nut shell, this is a mul­ti­cul­tur­al show that gives an oppor­tu­ni­ty to every­one to enjoy music from dif­fer­ent cultures.

  • Expansive Prairie Skies

    Expan­sive Prairie Skies draws inspi­ra­tion from the wide open vis­tas that sur­round Win­nipeg.

    Con­tem­po­rary clas­si­cal and actu­al clas­si­cal.
    Avant-garde and musique con­crete.
    Noise and ambi­ent music.
    Jazz and more jazz.
    The host pro­vides the son­ic stratos­phere,
    the music does the talk­ing, you do the dreaming.

  • Queer Quarks

    Queer Quarks is a talk and music show which exam­ines news, his­to­ry, cul­ture and cur­rent events through a queer lens. Host­ed by Ley Fras­er (they/​them).

    The goals of the show include show­cas­ing artists and cre­ators who are part of minori­tized gen­ders and/​or sex­u­al­i­ties (‘2SLGBTQIA+ peo­ple’) and dis­cussing how events around the world affect queer com­mu­ni­ties. Often the lat­ter top­ic includes mis­treat­ment and vio­lence; trig­ger warn­ings are pro­vid­ed but lis­ten with care. This is an acces­si­ble show, where aca­d­e­m­ic top­ics will be bro­ken down into plain lan­guage intend­ed to be prac­ti­cal­ly use­ful. Think crit­i­cal­ly about the issues, check out source mate­ri­als, lis­ten to mar­gin­al­ized groups about their own expe­ri­ences and respect the every­one around you.
