GET UPDATES FROM Carol Mott
 
For many years the Motts, Carol and Paul, have been a fixture on Toronto radio, entertaining, enlightening, and at times enraging (mostly Paul) audiences throughout southern Ontario.

Both Carol and Paul originally worked separately, Paul, as news director at CJRN Radio in Niagara Falls during its heyday of talk; and Carol, doing talk, hosting an interview program and writing award winning commercials.

They were put together as a husband and wife talk team and the rest is history.

Standard Broadcasting wooed the team numerous times and finally the Motts moved their brand to CFRB Radio. After 16 successful years, The Motts have taken their show to the World Wide Web and are carried by four radio stations in Ontario.

They can be heard weekdays from 11 a.m. until noon at www.themotts.ca.

Posted August 29, 2011 | 15:51:51 (EST)

He Says,

On a beautiful, sun-drenched, Saturday afternoon a nation bid farewell to NDP boss, John Gilbert "Jack" Layton... the Leader of her Majesty's Official Opposition laid to rest with all the pomp and pageantry that a state funeral offers.

While there were those who felt that Jack wasn't deserving...

Somalia's Image Deficit: Helping or Hurting Aid?

Posted July 25, 2011 | 12:06:25 (EST)

He says...

In case you haven't noticed, the war-torn state of Somalia has a PR problem... not one of those warm and fuzzy nations, thought fondly of by most.

With a weak, corrupt, UN-backed central government, large areas controlled by pro-al Qaeda Islamist rebels, and ports, home to...

The Naughty Nudist

He says...

Under section 174 of the Criminal Code of Canada, going bare butt in public or exposing one's self to public view while traipsing about naked on private property, is a criminal offence. I'm paraphrasing of course, but you get the idea... if we can see your 'stuff' you're...

Rob Ford Has a Better Idea? Picks Cottage Over Pride Parade

Posted June 28, 2011 | 09:03:47 (EST)

He says...

If I were the Mayor of Toronto (frightening thought) and had a cosy cottage up in the Muskokas, what would I be doing this July 1 weekend, the first long weekend of the summer? Chances are I'd be there with my family.

He Says...

I've always viewed Vancouver as a beautiful, welcoming city, the big jewel of our Canadian West Coast. And what transpired post-game of the seventh tilt in the Stanley Cup finals, did nothing to damage that image.

Squeegee Clean? He Says...She Says...

Posted June 13, 2011 | 13:14:51 (EST)

Paul Says...

The light turns red and suddenly they're upon you... like a zombie NASCAR pit crew, they pour onto the road, providing intimidated motorists with an unsolicited 'service.'

They're the infamous 'squeegee kids,' a bunch of lazy, ne'er-do-wells armed with buckets of brown water and black-sponged squeegees.

They muddy...

Paul says...

A few weeks back, NHL bad boy Sean Avery was in the news again, not for being an idiot this time, but for something totally unexpected... something "Un-Avery", like. Sean, it seems, had taken up a cause... advocating for gay marriage!
