CHART #175

Have you ever wondered what The R3-30 would sound like if Pedro watched a King Crimson video on YouTube right before we start recording? Well friends, you're in luck this week! Actually, it has no sonic effect on the show, but Pedro is wearing a wizard's hat throughout. To be honest, it left me feeling a little confused and anxious. The prog-rock, not the wizard's hat. Pedro looks good in hats.

Where was I?

Oh yes, this week we're celebrating the 175th R3-30! And while hardly a mention is made about it, we do feel it in our hearts. We'll chat with Mark Sultan (BBQ), Woodpigeon will be subjected to The R3-30 Questions, and I'll play a Broad Way Sleep track that a bunch of you requested over on The R3-30 FunClub! I'll also be revealing who The Most Thumbed-Up and Most Searched For artists were for this week! And, of course, we'll be counting down the Top 30 most popular tracks on CBC Radio 3!

The full-length, three-hour version of The R3-30 (which has even more in it than mentioned above!) debuts every Friday at 11 am ET. The R3-30 Podcast drops directly afterward!
