Mornings at the Cabin

The Alberta Government has recently been under fire for releasing a proposed list of books to be banned from school libraries, with titles from the legend, Margaret Atwood, among them. Big mistake.

The breakfast wars have been dormant for some time now, with Kellogs reigning supreme. But an aggressive assault from the General Mills camp threatens to throw everything into disarray...

We lost a true legend yesterday. If you don't recognize the name, you will certainly recognize the face. It was everywhere, and likely brought at least one smile to yours.

Finally...The reigning, DEFENDING, Adult Spelling Bee world champion HAS COME BACK to Cabin Radio.

No, not "signs that you are getting old," (although there are plenty of those on this show everyday) but OLD SIGNS! From Yellowknife businesses of a bygone era! Got any??

The Yellowknife Solid Waste Facility Amnesty Days is in danger of being DUMPED. Yes...yes, that'll do.

You want these frequent power outages to end, Yellowknife? Then upgrade your plan to POWER PLUS! Or, take it to the next level with the new POWER PLUS PREMIUM.

We just had the nicest weekend of weather that we've seen all summer in Yellowknife, so it's probably time to look ahead toward winter.

Yesterday on Home to the Cabin, Jay Bear followed up on our YK drivers rant with a few driving pet peeves of his own. Let's keep the blood boiling! What else to YK drivers suck at?!

The City of YK is hosting a Splash Bash to celebrate the grand opening of the new Aquatic Centre! Look for us somewhere down the laaazy river.

It's officially sign-up time! Cabin Radio's Adult Spelling Bee 2 competition is seeking out the territory's biggest know-it-alls and smarty-pantses!

Not only is this apparently a real world, but also a real creature! AND a real cute children's book!

Objectively, it may have been the nicest goal in Canada Summer Games history. Subjectively, it's the GOAT.

Can you have too much rizz in one studio? Cabin Radio bussin this morning fr fr.

A locally shot (no pun intended) and posted "music video" featuring mostly fellas and guns has been raising eyebrows, and has now triggered (again, sorry) a police investigation.

Is "Home" by Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros the worst song of all-time? Or is it simply suffering from a bit of Nickelback syndrome (i.e. too popular to tolerate)?

...But there's always a chance it could sleep in.

Back in the 90's, when FM radio was already a well-established medium, we were just being introduced to the wonderful world of dial-up internet. Now, one is about to die. Try to guess which!

Cabin Radio got Zuck'd. Again. So what do we do now? We march right back in there and create yet another Facebook page! Because we know, "Yellowknife runs on 'bookin."

Chrissie is headed west. We shall miss her dearly.

Wheeler just got back from two humid weeks in New York. Mooresy doesn't want to hear about it because he neglected to get her a coffee. And now we fight.

Lekter wanted birthday pancakes. He didn't get them. Jasmine would like to stop receiving parking tickets. She keeps getting them. We can't always get what we want.

After waiting nearly 24 hours to allow time for yesterday's huge news to reveal itself as some kind of cruel prank, or the dreaded "wrong press release" gag, we're now nearly ready to believe that we got our FM licence for realsies. Maybe we'll wait out the long weekend, just to be sure.

Yep, we got it. Cabin Radio is now OFFICIALLY your next northern FM radio station. However, that all happened AFTER this morning's show, making this arguably the quickest-to-become-obsolete podcast episode we've ever produced.

This weekend in Yellowknife: A return of the Tale of Two Fests... IN THE OLD SCHOOL CORNER; The Old Town Ramble n Ride ... IN THE NEW SCHOOL CORNER; Ribfest.
