Today, 6:15 Eastern time, 4:15 Central, I’ll be on Afternoon News with Cory Kolt on News Talk 980 CJME. We’re gonna be talking about Conan O’Brien — guess my post earlier about what O’Brien should do next popped up on someone’s Google Alert.
I have no idea how many readers I have in Saskatchewan. Not many, I’m guessing…
Hmmm…
I’ll try to listen, but 6:15E is 5:15 central, not 4:15. Can I assume the mistake was in the subtraction and not the 6:15? :)
What? You don’t have loads of readers in the home province of Leslie Nielsen? Surely you jest!
*nudge, nudge*
You’d be surprised – for a small province (population-wise), Saskatchewan is pretty culturally rich.
Yeah, you’re right. They said they’d call me at 6:15, which is just a few minutes away. And they didn’t call at 5:15. Could it be a difference in Daylight Savings Time?
Did you get to go on? Listening now (5:30 PM CST) and it’s just the news. Bummer if they bumped you.
Weather now. Thought I’d see if maybe it turns out to be 6:15 CST.
Looks like either it’s a nogo or I missed it. They have been talking a lot about weather systems, but it may have just been a scheduling problem. Guess I’ll go see about that podcast you mentioned.
Not that it matters now, but I would like to point out that Saskatchewan does not observe Daylight Savings Time: “Most of Saskatchewan has not observed daylight time since 1966 and stays on Central Standard Time all year round. Some border towns follow the time schemes of their neighbours in Manitoba or Alberta.”

I was on at 6:15 NYC time.
Ok, I just missed it. Got busy with some other stuff and didn’t get tuned in until 5:30 CST, which would have been 6:30 EST. Is there a recording of it anywhere?
You could try the site linked in the original post. If it’s not there, it won’t be anywhere else, I imagine.
