Encyclopedia > Go (radio)

Go is a Saturday morning entertainment show on the Radio One network of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, hosted by Brent Bambury. This show includes interviews, music, and comedy bits.


The show is produced in Ottawa and starting in 2004 is recordered in front of a live audience.


The show sometimes includes the game show Groove Shinny, also hosted by Bambury, which sets a Canadian musician against a "perfect musical mind" (Richard Crouse) and a "perfect stranger", for a trivia match.

purevolume™ | GO RADIO (771 words)
We were to play the GO RADIO songs I Live for You and Goodbye, Trigger Happy Earth, however during one of the few rehearsals it was discovered that the former sounded similar to Run by the popular band Snow Patrol, so it was decided that the two songs should be united, which they then were.
A third song, Napoleon vs. Peel (referring to both Napoleon Dynamite and the late John Peel, legendary entity and radio DJ), which was an improvised song made up of whatever we felt like doing at that moment with a drum machine going at crazy-crazy tempos, a phaser pedal, and a pitch shift/delay pedal.
GO RADIO is now, as a result, a household name, regardless of the fact that all the songs recorded are unfinished demos and really don't sound that great.
Radio Waves (566 words)
Radio waves have the longest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Radio telescopes are dishes made out of conducting metal that reflect radio waves to a focus point.
Because the wavelengths of radio light are so large, a radio telescope must be physically larger than an optical telescope to be able to make images of comparable clarity.
