The Canadian version of Auntie, the CBC, has locked out its employees during a labour dispute, so they’re showing BBC news nightly on TV there.

Enterprising journalists with time and creativity on their hands are producing underground versions of their daily radio shows as podcasts (available as a feed here).

I love the do-it-yourself effort with the pro radio voices, and there’s some cute satire about receiving the news from the UK everyday: “now for the weather in London, TottingHAM, Titmuss Sheds and Liverpool.”
