As a regular CBC Vancouver listener, I'm wondering what's going on with Rick Cluff's extended periods of absence the last few months. For most of the summer he's been absent, I think he's been on
the air for maybe a week or two in the past few months. Is he preparing for retirement or are there some medical issues? He's been a fixture on CBC for eons now and the show gets great ratings.
Stephen Quinn has been doing most of the fill in and Gloria Macarenko has been filling in for Stephen in the afternoons. Both are good fits in the respective time slots.
If this will one day be the new lineup on CBU, they have done a great job in preparing for the future.
