Join humorous guests and Cheryl McKenzie-Hoar every Thursday from 7pm until 9pm on CHEV Radio, as we lounge around with the latest A-listers and B-listers and everything in-between for candid, frank, one-on-one chats about suffering for your art form, the art of publicity with no money, how to kiss butt and get what you want while talking about the industry and the various art forms within which we have chosen to make our beds!We will also discuss local politics, environmental issues, who’s wearing what and who’s doing who in the crazy world of showbiz asking ourselves, ‘just how much is too much?’ as the central mantra for our debates. As a champion of homegrown Canadian talent, especially in the Toronto area, this will be mixed with music from upcoming and established artists from Canada, the UK and beyond who will also occasionally guest on the show. With all of the great topics and subjects that the media has been exposing our fragile souls too, there is no shortage of subjects for healthy, funny discussion and debate – just like you would do on your own couch back home in your own living room!About the host… Cheryl McKenzie-Hoar is a former television producer and radio guest booker who has over 8 years experience in media related arts and entertainment and who has spent over 5 years running her own media, arts and entertainment company, BritGirl Productions.
