It is the week of Christmas and for many people the holidays are in full swing. Hope all of you will enjoy your radio programming over the holidays. Whether its reviewing the great selection of holiday music available, classic favourites from your most loved stations or the wide range of specials happening on different channels.

I will be tuning in to the History of Howard Stern Act III for the duration of the holidays. This has been in the works since the beginning of 2009 and Stern nerds like myself are anxiously awaiting this great global premiere.

Sirius 18 the Spectrum recently hosted John Mayer playing a great set of tunes from his new record “Battle Studies” and he also spun several of his personal favourites. There will be one more re-broadcast of this special at 3:00 eastern today. The Sirius website on this lists incorrect dates however it is apparently 3:00 today for the final re-broadcast. 

Let’s return to a quick review of the holiday programming still running on Sirius right now.

Radio Hanukkah just wrapped up another great run on Sirius 76.

Channel 3- Holly, contempotary and traditional holiday favourites. Online listeners unfortunately are still getting the Sirius Love feed for reasons myself and several readers here have not been able to find out. Holly runs until December 31.

Channel 4 – Holiday Traditions, playing traditional and memorable recordings from the pre and post formative rock and roll years. Running until December 31.

Channel 79 – Holiday Pops, classical carolling sung by some of the greatest choirs and vocalists in history. Running until Deceber 31.

Channel 62 – Country Christmas, great Christmas country classics sung by some of the best country artists.

Enjoy the week everyone!
