  • CBC Radio 3 is a radio station that consists of three major parts devoted to Canadian arts and music: a Sirius Satellite Radio station (channel 94), a weekly podcast from the CBC [http://radio3.cbc.ca/ Radio 3 website], and streaming audio on the same website. The satellite network does air some music by international artists in its playlist, but is primarily Canadian content; the webstream and podcast are 100% Canadian music. The podcast and the CBC Radio One program Fuse also air as programs on the satellite radio channel. The network evolved out of programming on CBC Radio Two, which also simulcasted the satellite network on Saturday and Sunday nights from its debut in December of 2005 until March 17, 2007. Radio 3 is no longer heard on terrestrial radio, but is still available through its satellite radio and Internet operations. The French equivalent to CBC Radio 3 is Bande à part. The network plays a relatively freeform mix of indie music, including rock, pop, alternative hip hop, folk, country and electronic music. An article on Nerve.com, published in October of 2006, called CBC Radio 3 "possibly the world's best radio station" [http://www.nerve.com/dispatches/doig/cbc3/]. CBC Radio 3 was nominated for a Webby Award in 2007 and previously won the award in 2003. The network's unofficial mascot is Bucky, a cartoon creature with the body of a duck and the head of a moose. Bucky is primarily seen in the introduction to the network's weekly R3TV video podcast, and also lends his name to the network's annual year-end music awards. (en)
