The broadcast will feature two long-running shows from the CKCU schedule. At 4 p.m., check out Communautés croisées hosted by Patrick Auguste, that focusses on social and cultural issues in the francophone community of Ottawa-Gatineau. And at 5 p.m., get on The Guest List with host Joe Reilly, featuring interviews with musicians and performers who are making appearances in the capital region. Both programs will feature special guests talking about cultural events in our listening area.
