As long as our “i”‘s are dotted and our “t”‘s are crossed, there will be a New Year’s Eve special on WBCQ on 5.110 MHz from the production team at Erie Looking Productions in concert with the team behind the\u00a0Ubuntu\u00a0UK Podcast.<\/p>\n
The Joint New Year’s Eve Special will be airing at 7 PM Eastern on New Years Eve, 12 AM UTC New Year’s Day.\u00a0 The show is a variety hour with a retrospective on the world of Linux and\u00a0Ubuntu\u00a0more specifically, poetry and music by Ashtabula-area musician Mike Kellat, and a policy essay on global communications in the aftermath of the World Conference on International Telecommunications 2012 in Dubai.\u00a0 Other PSAs such as “Profile America” from the US Census Bureau and some silliness is included as well as a music break.\u00a0 Cleveland-area life studies artist Big Ed Kellatis assists Mike Kellat with the poetry reading.<\/p>\n
