Broadcast legend Larry King was in Toronto last Friday for the only Canadian stop on his book tour promoting his biography My Remarkable Journey. Larry King sat down with George in The Hour studios on Friday. Even if you're not a Larry King fan, make sure you tune in to this interview, it's one of George's best.
Also on the show is musician Steve Earle. His latest CD, Townes, celebrates the songs of Earle's friend and inspiration Townes Van Zandt. 
If you're in the Toronto area over the next three weeks, there is still time to pick up tickets to attend a taping of The Hour. Check out The Hour's ticket page for available dates.

I'm so excited about Norman Jewison appearing on The Hour. He is a great filmmaker and he just happens to live in the same small town as I do. :) Yay Mr. Jewison!
Hello - does anyone know if there is another way to listen to tonights Strombo show?
My connection went belly up and I missed the last half.
One tip about listening to the Strombo Show is The Fox in Vancouver begins the show 6pm (in BC)... So find the fox in Vancouver if you are late listening and you can listen online then.
Thanks Barbara. Ruling out driving around for three hours, I think I will invest in an actual radio.
I have more radios at home than TV's...computer works well for that too. So much radio you can listen to online. God bless 'em.
Man, it was all I could do not to end it after listening to Dr. Sunshine on Monday. We're totally doomed. Excellent. Would you like to Chair phase 2 of One Million Acts of Green? Yikes. Pardon me while I breathe into a paper bag.
