Tune in, Canada. I’m going to be on CBC Television’s “The Hour,” tonight at 8pm.
It’s “an irreverent, ’round-the-world, mile-a-minute look at news and current affairs that’s actually fun to watch,” the show’s website promises. Even when they have jerks like me, flapping their gums.
“Our host is named George Stroumboulopoulos,” adds a producer. “[K]ind of like Stephanopoulos, but with Strombo at the front of it.”


Strombo actually used to be the producer of Spider Jones’ radio show on the Toronto all sports station the FAN 590. At 3:00 Saturdays, he’d host a show called “Game” about irreverent sports topics, mostly wrestling and old TV shows. That was the best radio ever.
