About Me:
I'm just a big teenager who moved to Toronto from Thunder Bay, Ontario in 2001 after meeting my New Yorker soul-mate Deena on the mighty Bomplist. We dig loads of trash culture and foisting our rockin' records upon an unsuspecting audience each week on our radio show - Real cool Time - heard every Tuesday at 6 p.m. (eastern) on CIUT 89.5 FM in Toronto or www.ciut.fm worldwide. Comments and requests welcome: realcooltime@sympatico.ca

I also happen to be blind, so please excuse the relative lack of visual stimulation!

Just bookmarked your blog. Too bad that the sound department is undergoing maintenance right now.

Hello Rocky,
Any chance of streaming your broadcasts over the net? Preferably here for all of us to hear?
I'm guessing that a lot of folks here think the same. My friend Lara from the world even agrees with me and she calls me "The Fonsz"....
At 8:57am on August 21, 2008, LARA said…
ah nice, I've bookmarked the blog! Cheers for that!
