Mornings are hard, amirite?
Mornings suck. Bondo’s going to them suck just a little bit less one song at a time.
Join Bondo weekdays at 8am on CHSR 97.9FM every morning while she rolls out of bed and engages in witty banter with herself and chats about music and other nonsense while pulling tracks from CHSR’s library and her personal collection to spin on-air. Like pop? Rock? Weird jangly sounds that you’re not quite sure what it is? Bondo’s got ya covered.
This isn’t just another morning radio show…
