An era in Regina and Canadian radio is coming to an end.
CC and Lorie, from our sister station Z99, are announcing they plan to retire this spring.
They’ve been waking up Regina for 32 years. CC has been the morning host since Z99 first went on the air in 1982.
When Lorie first joined CC in the morning, the Berlin Wall was still up, Brian Mulroney was prime minister, and the Riders were about to win their second Grey Cup.
A lot has happened since then, but CC and Lorie have been a constant in Regina, on the air and in the community. They’ve emceed, hosted, and promoted countless events and causes. The one closest to their hearts has been the annual Z99 Radiothon for the NICU at the Rawlco Centre for Mother Baby Care.
Every year, CC has stayed awake for many hours as they’ve helped raise over $10 million to help save babies’ lives.
CC and Lorie will lead one more radiothon before stepping away from the mic.
Lorie revealed she’s dealing with some health issues that have her wanting to spend more time with family. And CC has decided not to go on without his long-time partner, ending one of the longest-running morning show pairings in Canadian radio history.
A date for their last broadcast hasn’t been determined yet.
