The Corridor

On The Corridor podcast, we feature news stories created by Local Journalism Initiative reporters in Kingston and area including CFRC’s own Chris Lawrie with contributions from CJAI Amherst Island Radio, County FM in Picton, CFWN FM in Cobourg plus LJI print media journalists from The Kingstonist, YGK News, and the Brockville Recorder and Times. The Corridor broadcasts Thursdays at 5 PM EST on CFRC's terrestrial signal 101.9 FM and can be streamed at cfrc.ca. The Corridor has been made possible by our team of staff and volunteers, the Community Radio Fund of Canada, the Local Journalism Initiative, the Queen's University Department of History Internship Program, Queen's University Career Services, and of course our donors. Hosted by Dinah Jansen, Executive Director, Radio Queen's University. From Coburg to Cornwall, Westport to the Lake Ontario & St. Lawrence River waterfronts, we've got you covered.
