Wanna know something even crazier?

There's a radio station here in City1 that has the same morning show hosts as the radio station in City2. They literally do two shows, or pre-record one, I'm not sure. They talk about local City1 news and such, so they try and make it relevant and local. But it's crazy! Are there no radio personalities in my city they could have hired?

Bonkers.

I'd love to see how this actually plays out, but respect your anonymity!
Cheers to that. I don't know why I am being cute about this, actually. I've almost definitely shared my city at some point or another.

Anyways the morning show is "Willy in the Morning" and it's in three markets now, Vancouver, Calgary and Edmonton.

I grew up listening to Vancouver radio stations so it was a bit surprising when I heard some radio personalities I recognized in Calgary.
