Hello everyone and thanks for tuning in to our program. This is indeed a milestone – one that’s over six years and 98 previous episodes in the making. And while reaching the century mark is certainly a big deal, there is real significance in Canada assigned to the number 99. Just ask the Great One.
To note this auspicious occasion, we’ve spent extra time and effort putting together a one-of-a-kind commemorative program. So welcome one and all to the Marking Time Podcast Episode 99, a full ninety-nine minutes of exclusively Canadian content designed to celebrate a program born and raised right here in Canada.
MTP:99 features a wide array of songs from artists all across the country, spanning a variety of musical styles. Many performers are long-time MTP standouts and the rest are sure to become fan favourites as well. So join us in celebrating some great Canadian songs the MTP way – nothing but #RealGrownupMusic.
And if you’re concerned we won’t mark our 100th show with some fanfare, don’t worry. Next time out we will spin up our 7th annual Yuletide show with lots of fun songs for the season. So stay tuned and keep spreading the MTP gospel far and wide. Thanks for listening and enjoy the music!
