Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
So about that having my WWE Network subscription up and running in a few minutes business. I did get it yesterday, but not until close to 10 PM. For reference, that hang tight a second post went up around 2. Looking back, the fact that I called Rogers and got through to a human being …

No thanks to the people at Rogers or WWE who’s job this is supposed to be, I’ve learned a little bit more about today’s Canadian launch of the WWE Network. According to this post from the Fight Network, it sounds like I’m not going to have to throw things. The regular network and the on …

I really don’t want to jump to conclusions, but it looks a bit like some of my fears about Rogers having its hands in the WWE Network might be justified.

Here’s the latest CKCO flashback. This time, David Imrie, who’s been a reporter there longer than I’ve been alive, looks at how much the news team’s technology has evolved over the years.
Here’s the second part of CKCO’s series on its history. It’s a fun one, looking at some of the shows produced by the station over the years, back when local programming was an actual thing that existed rather than the tired marketing cry of massive corporations that don’t feel like they make enough money that …

We’re supposed to call it CTV Kitchener now, but it’ll always be CKCO to me. But whatever your name of choice, this year marks its 60th anniversary. All this week, they’re doing flashback segments on the news looking at the history of the station. I love that sort of thing especially when It’s something I …
