Terry O'Reilly to host CBC Radio One's "Q" tomorrow (October 26th)

The CBC Radio One program on advertising and marketing, "The Age of
Persuasion", which normally airs for 20 weeks per year, is one of my
favorites.

Its host, Terry O'Reilly, will be hosting the CBC weekdaily
arts/culture/entertainment program "Q" on Tuesday, providing us "AOP"
fans a chance for a between-season "fix" of Mr. O'Reilly's wit and
wisdom.
