Well, here’s one by Deborah Walker, who worked for CKUA between 1984 and 1986.
On my first day as a newsperson at CKUA, I entered the old building on Edmonton’s Jasper Avenue at about 6:00 AM, went up the creaking stairs, past dark offices, and into the newsroom. There, I met
Ken Regan, who greeted me warmly and showed me the ropes.

Well, here’s one by our esteemed Natch’ Blues host, Holger Petersen!
My CKUA story begins back in 1968 when I started the two-year Radio and Television Arts course at NAIT.
I already had a passion for music and had been collecting records and following bands since my early teens. The British Invasion-influenced R&B and blues groups opened my world. That music pointed me in the direction of electric blues and eventually to all regional styles of blues and roots music. Happily, it’s an endless pursuit.
