Despite a career that's included being heard Saturday mornings on CBC Radio for nearly a quarter century, Brent Bambury will eternally be known by a generation of kids as the host of iconic late night CBC Stereo show Brave New Waves - the overnight radio show he was a part of from 1984 through the early '90s that for many Canadians was one of their only exposure points to underground and alternative music.

With Bambury's final episode of Day 6 set to air Saturday, Oct. 24, we invited him to join us on Broadcast Dialogue - The Podcast to talk about his career, pop culture, the future of media, and more.

Dielectric president Keith Pelletier rejoins Shawn Smith to talk about how broadcast TV is becoming an IP-based data service, and what it takes to build the infrastructure behind it.

He also walks through the TV Globo rollouts in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, which went from order to shipment in about three months to make the World Cup deadline.
