While in my teens in the 70"s CHOM was THE radio station with amazing on air personalities and a dynamic up to the minute music news programming and contest format. CHOM listeners now include a broader range of listeners from teenagers to baby boomers.... a coup in the radio world these days. There are not many radio legends left in Montreal these days and bringing Terry Di Monte back to CHOM is an opportunity to revive the station to its former glory. Fans love Terry for his big heart and music savy, and relate to his every man way of being. I for one am very excited about his return and look forward to what he will bring to the table!

When I was a kid in the 80's, I watched a show called "Shoe-in" or something like that. I'm pretty sure it was hosted by terry, with a female sidekick. I think it was on Sunday monrings (or maybe Saturday). Kids could call in to win prizes for some reason. I even went to a taping, maybe in Maison Radio-Canada? That seems strange to me, because I also feel like it was on CFCF.. Does anyone here remember this show, and what it might have been called? Was it Terry who hosted it?
