at 11 (11:30 NT) on CBC Radio One.
5. O'REILLY AND THE AGE OF PERSUASION:
According to one survey, six per cent of North Americans believe the
moon landings were faked. Given that degree of pervasive cynicism,
it's not surprising that it's hard to convince people that your brand
of laxative, athletic footwear or luxury sedan is worth buying. This
week on The Age of Persuasion, Terry O'Reilly traces the erosion of
people's trust in advertising, media, and institutions - from the
early S**** Oil salesmen to Orson Welles' infamous "War of the Worlds"
broadcast - the 1938 radio drama that caused a real-life panic. Terry
also explores some of the ways today's marketers try to break through
that distrust. Visit "The Wall of Cynicism" this week on Terry
O'Reilly and The Age of Persuasion, Saturday morning at 11:30 (noon
NT) on CBC Radio One.
6. QUIRKS AND QUARKS:
This Saturday, Quirks & Quarks offers an encore presentation of their
Canada 2050 Climate Change Special. The signs are all there:
disappearing polar ice, melting permafrost, extreme weather events,
raging forest fires, changing landscapes - and it's all kind of
scary. Some scientists say it will get much worse before it can get
better, but what does it mean for Canada? In this special full-
edition re****t, Quirks & Quarks looks at Canada in the year 2050, and
tries to imagine what effect climate change will have on this land,
its people, its animals and plants, its biodiversity and its weather
patterns. A dozen of Canada's leading climate experts give their
predictions for Canada in 2050. That's Quirks and Quarks, with host
Bob McDonald, Saturday afternoon after the noon news (12:30 NT) on CBC
Radio One.
7. DEFINITELY NOT THE OPERA:
Of course they're more than just something to keep your feet safe and
dry. Shoes are a fa****on statement, a treat and - in some cases, an
obsession. This week, DNTO looks down at the humble shoe. What do your
shoes say about you? Sook-Yin talks with innovative shoe designer John
Fluevog about what's hot and what's not in shoes... and why those foot
coverings are so darned im****tant. She'll also set out in search of
the elusive shoe ****ner, and head to a dance studio to take a lesson
in hip hop dancing... in stiletto heels. That's on Definitely Not the
Opera, Saturday after the one p.m. news (1:30 NT) on CBC Radio One.
6. FUSE:
Laura Barrett writes quirky songs for the kalimba, an African thumb

unusual instruments for a very atmospheric Fuse. Fuse, with Amanda
Putz, Saturday at 3 p.m. (3:30 NT) on CBC Radio One.
9. BETWEEN YOU AND ME:
Shakespeare got it right about four hundred years ago when he wrote,
"Oh Beware my lord of Jealousy. It is the green-ey'd monster, which
doth mock The meat it feeds on." This week on Between You and Me,
Josey Vogels looks at jealousy - often irrational, but very difficult
to deal with nonetheless. She'll hear from n evolutionary psychologist
about why jealousy exists, and how a hint of jealousy can actually be
good for a relation****p. Between You and Me with Josey Vogels,
Saturday afternoon at 4 (4:30 NT) on CBC Radio One.
10. TALKING BOOKS: ***Also heard in some locations Thursdays at 3:30
p.m. (4 NT) on CBC Radio One***
Brace yourself. Talking Books tackles one hot topic this week - Celine
Dion. Via a new book about the Canadian pop star, Ian Brown and his
guests take a deeper look at personal taste - why a musical performer
who obvious provides enjoyment to millions of people can be loathed
and despised by others. Does popularity make a performer "good"?
Does popularity automatically make a performer "bad"? Hear what Ian
and friends have to say on the subject on Talking Books, with Ian
Brown, Saturday afternoon at 4:30 (5 NT) on CBC Radio One.
11. THE WORLD THIS WEEKEND:
Uphill, downhill, and avoiding the potholes. Saturday on The World

quintessential Canadian pastime, camping, is good for the soul. So
pitch your tent in the Wal-Mart parking lot and tune in to The
Debaters, Saturday evening at 6:30 (7:30 AT, 8 NT) on CBC Radio One.
13. RANDY BACHMAN'S VINYL TAP: ***also heard Fridays at 11 p.m. (11:30
NT) on CBC Radio One***
Gerry and the Pacemakers asked the musical question, "How Do You Do
What You Do To Me?" It's a question North Americans could have asked
any of the British musical acts that swept across the Atlantic in the
Sixties and Seventies. How did they have such an appeal? It started
with Beatlemania, but the Fab Four paved the way for any number of
good, bad and downright awful British Invaders. And judging by your
reaction to the last edition of Vinyl Tap Randy Bachman did about the
Brits, you still can't get enough. This week, Randy takes another look
at some of the more influential British bands including Cliff Richard
and the Shadows, the Kinks, the Troggs, the Animals and many
more.Randy Bachman's Vinyl Tap, Saturday evening at 7 p.m. (8 AT, 8:30
NT) on CBC Radio One.

reaction she got from Dolly Parton (by fax!) after covering one of

favourite Springsteen song. All that plus an email from David Bowie,

"Young Americans". Under the Covers, with Emm Gryner and Danny Michel,

Saturday morning at 11 (noon AT, 12:30 NT) on CBC Radio 2.
16. INSIDE THE MUSIC:
African-American composers and performers have been the pioneers and
the backbone of American popular music, from jazz to blues to rock and
beyond. Some of the first people to promote, adopt or simply preserve
those traditions were Jewish. But how could members of these two
communities interact, in what was for a long time a deeply segregated
society? This week on Inside the Music, do***entary-maker Michael

--- WEEKEND HOTSHEET, SUNDAY JULY 20, 2008 ---
1. THE SUNDAY EDITION:
He's certainly the most quoted playwright in history. Phrases culled
from his works have become proverbs that have lasted for centuries.

nature and the workings of the human mind. But this week, The Sunday
