Hi, I used to live right across Annandale Rd from the Community Center. You used to have a show called 'Journey Without Distance', which was ahead of it's time for a meditation/relaxation show. Do you still have it in your archives and, if so, can it be obtained on DVD format? Thank you!
Anybody know if there is a problem with the Radio Fairfax Internet stream???
