Next Saturday, September 13th, CBC Radio 2 will broadcast the opera ‘Regina’, produced by Pacific Opera Victoria. It will be the featured performance on the programme “Saturday Afternoon at the Opera”, from 1PM until 5PM EDT. Details of the cast can be found by scrolling down [here](http://www.cbc.ca/sato/schedule/september.html) and information on the time in your region is [here](http://www.cbc.ca/sato/index.html). Information on how to find a local frequency or listen to CBC through your computer can be found [here](http://www.cbc.ca/radio2/). Your very own **Le Ministre de l’au-delà** starred as Ben Hubbard.

Once again, a big 'Thank You' to all the dopers who contributed to my thread about ['List of films for learning an Alabama accent'](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=462037) - it was a great help to me, though I think to really nail the accent the best thing would have been a two-week vacation cycling through Alabama back roads. You may judge the results of my efforts by listening on Saturday. Please be gentle in your criticisms.

```

Also thanks to the Mods for granting their permission to post this. I hope some of you may be able to tune in. Best wishes, Le Ministre

I will make every effort to remember to switch the dial from CBC Radio 1 to 2! (Although the poor radio might be lodged on CBC 1; it doesn’t get changed often.)

(Nice to hear that Radio 2 is still going to have opera, as well.)

A blatant bump to attract the attention of the late Thursday night crowd. If I’m really lucky, it might stay on the first page long enough to get seen by the Friday at work folks, too. Best wishes, Le Ministre
