In this special episode, we sit down with the one and only Mark Connolly, the beloved, now-retired host of CBC Radio and the Morning Show.
Mark shares his deeply personal, Edmonton-based story, beginning with his family's immigration from Ireland and his first exposure to the world of broadcasting—cleaning the CBC building for his father’s janitorial business.
Hear about the unexpected twists and turns that led him through his first radio gig in Fort McMurray, a romantic encounter in a community production of Grease (where he met his wife!), and various stops in Red Deer and Edmonton before landing at CBC.
The heart of Mark's story lies in his incredible sports reporting career: from his breakthrough covering the 1995 Canada Games to reporting on 12 consecutive Olympic Games! He recounts thrilling moments, including the 1998 Bobsleigh Gold tie in Japan, before his memorable move to hosting the CBC Morning Show in 2013.
Tune in for an inspiring journey through local radio, Olympic history, and what it takes to build an unforgettable career in Canadian broadcasting.
