2006 Programming and Management
Programming
U235 - CKDJ's heavy metal show hosted by Chris Chisamore and Andrew Elliot. Jesse Baker took Elliot's hosting duties in mid-March when Elliot went to intern at CILV-FM. The show was originally broadcast on Thursday nights, but was quickly switched to Wednesday nights at 10:00 due to scheduling conflicts. Mark Steigerwald and Don MacLean occasionally appeared on the show with short profiles of bands and music scenes. U235, or Uranium-235, was used as a title for the show because it is a 'heavy metal' and the hosts wanted a clever title. Uranium is a member of the Actinide chemical series on the periodic table of the elements.
Lost in Transition - Hosts Ian Durkin, Ian "Mister Wilson" Wilson and Chris Kellet spun their own electronica with turn tables for this show. The original timeslot was Wednesdays at 11pm, but this was quickly switched to Thursdays at 11pm due to scheduling conflicts.
Top 25 - Mondays at 6pm. Hosts Sam Rankin and Andrew Laughrin counted down the top 25 songs of the week, as voted by the listeners at CKDJ.net.

Famous quotes containing the words programming and/or management:
“If there is a price to pay for the privilege of spending the early years of child rearing in the driver’s seat, it is our reluctance, our inability, to tolerate being demoted to the backseat. Spurred by our success in programming our children during the preschool years, we may find it difficult to forgo in later states the level of control that once afforded us so much satisfaction.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
“The care of a house, the conduct of a home, the management of children, the instruction and government of servants, are as deserving of scientific treatment and scientific professors and lectureships as are the care of farms, the management of manure and crops, and the raising and care of stock.”
—Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
