This week on Deep Dive we enjoy the talents of Australian singer Helen Reddy. We learn that I don't know how to love him, we are peaceful, and we leave me alone.

Tune in at 4 PM Eastern Monday, which is Tuesday morning in Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which is Wednesday evening in Eastern Australia. Tuning in is a snap. Simply tell that SmartSpeaker of yours to play Mushroom FM, and you will be there faster than a New York minute.

Sara Hillis here, eh, to tell you aboot this week's episode of Come by the Hills, which is gunna be beauty, because we're celebrating Canada as we do every year around the date of Canada Day, which is July 1. I'll be playing songs filled with Canadian place names, Canadian history, interesting Canadian figures and of course lots of songs by Canadian artists! So, don't take off, eh, because wherever you are, if you tune into the show, you'll be in the great white (because of all the snow and the polar bears of course) north, where still that mighty moose wanders at will and all that!

As you may have guessed, The Song Remembers When will be live this afternoon, beginning at 4 pm Eastern. My main theme is songs that contain names starting with the letter J, but of course, other requests are always welcome. I hope you will be able to join me. Please reach out during the show. Melissa@mushroomfm.com or @Melissa@Social.mushroomfm.com. Can't wait to be with all of you soon.

Greetings! Sara Hillis here to let you know what's happening on this week's episode of Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show on Mushroom FM! I've got another blast from the past for you, this time from June 22, 2025. Today, June 21, is National Indigenous People's Day, and on the nearest Sunday to that date, I like to play some songs from indigenous artists and about indigenous themes. And, Canada being the complex place that it is, this Sunday also falls close to Fete Nationale in Quebec, which is a celebration of Quebec history and culture.
