Okay, this is shameless promotion, but for those of you not CBC employees who follow the blog, here are some highlights from CBC Radio One’s winter schedule:

• Dr. Brian Goldman will be back with new episodes of White Coat, Black Art, which was one of our most popular programs this past summer. The show takes listeners inside the health care system, demystifying the world of medicine, as healthcare professionals explain how the system really works, with a refreshing dose of honesty. The series will air Monday mornings at 11:30 a.m. and Friday evenings at 8 p.m.
• Advertising guru Terry O’Reilly will be back with Age of Persuasion. Every week, he will explore how advertising and marketing have come to permeate almost every aspect of 21st century life.  It airs Saturday mornings at 11:30 a.m.
• We’ll also be taking an off-kilter look at Canada – U.S. relations with our comedy series Canadia 2056. The show follows the adventures of the crew of the spaceship Canadia, the lone Canadian ship on a mission with the U.S. Space fleet as they set out on a pre-emptive strike against the planet Ipampilash. Canadia 2056 will air Wednesday nights at 11 p.m. and Friday mornings at 11:30 a.m.
• January also sees the debut of a new host for The Debaters. Steve Patterson takes over from Sean Majumder on the show that takes Canada’s best comic talent, gives them a topic, and lets the sparks fly. Steve has toured the world as a standup comedian.  He’s also made multiple appearances at Montreal’s Just for Laughs Festival, and was a finalist for top male standup at this year’s Canadian Comedy Awards.
• CBC Radio has extended the runs of two series that debuted in the fall–Spark and Search Engine. Spark is your guide to the Next Big Thing.  Every week, Nora Young looks at technology, trends and fresh ideas. It airs Wednesdays at 11:30 a.m. and Saturday afternoon at 4 p.m. On Search Engine, Jesse Brown looks at the surprising and significant ways the Internet is transforming our world. You can hear Search Engine Thursdays at 11:30 a.m. and Tuesdays at 3:30 p.m. (in select markets).
