Riffed From The Headlines - Guest: Gavin Crawford
Gavin Crawford pops in to try his hand at our Riffed From The Headlines news quiz, and to fill us in on his new quiz show "Because News", which airs on Saturday mornings following Day 6, starting this week.
Riffed From The Headlines is our weekly quiz where we choose three riffs linked by one story in the news. Guess the story that links the riffs and you could win a Day 6 tote bag! You can listen to this week's clues and e-mail us your answer at day6@cbc.ca. Make sure to include your mailing address and put "Riffed From The Headlines" in the subject line.
Last week's clues were Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers with "Roadrunner", "Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba and "Lightning Bolt" by Joel Plaskett. The headline we were looking for was about Usain Bolt getting "knocked down" by a cameraman on a segway after winning the 200m final at the World Championships in Beijing. And our winner is Miriam Pyett of Dundurn, Saskatchewan. Miriam says she's glad the World's Fastest Man "got back up again" unhurt! Congratulations, Miriam!
