Long time listener, first time caller



Welcome to the The Great Banana Hoax - a radio show dedicated to sports chat (re: hockey) and psychedelic music. Tune in every second Sunday (starting Jan. 11) from 2-4 p.m. MT on CJSR FM 88.5 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Turn your dial pretty much as far left as it can go, or go to www.cjsr.com to listen online.

You are invited to a psychedelic freakout. dale hunter cheapshots. imagining actually going to bret hart's house. could the jets come back? terry crisp. join IN for astute observations, witty banter and incoherant ramblings on anything and everything Oilers, hockey and sports and the mind-altering tickling clamboots, floating upon golden sheep skins. Thrown in the mix are favourite tunes of the psychedelic persuasion - past and present.

Yesterday was the first show. Thanks to Donald for calling in with a fun fact involving current Chicago Blackhawks' D-man Brent Sopel slipping on a cracker and injuring himself. Other topics discussed: The animated Glenn Anderson story in the Edmonton Journal, NHLers who look like Dali paintings, the tragic life of Clint Malarchuk, the 1987 World Junior brawl between Canada and the Soviet Union and the current situations plauging the Oilers lineup.
