Realtime (radio show)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Realtime was a Canadian radio show, which aired Saturday evenings on CBC Radio Two from 1994 to 1997.
Hosted by Leora Kornfeld, the series was a pop culture magazine and interview show which was billed as the first live radio program in the world to integrate Internet technologies such as e-mail and IRC into its program format. Listeners could interact with the show, either by Internet or telephone, as it aired: asking questions of an interview guest, requesting songs, offering feedback on the show, participating in on-air polls, and so forth. On one occasion, listeners were asked to vote on which of three different Sloan concerts would be aired that evening.
The last episode of Realtime aired on June 28, 1997. In the fall, Kornfeld and David Wisdom debuted as cohosts of the new series RadioSonic, which itself later evolved into today's CBC Radio 3.
