If you catch this in time (before 10PM Atlantic time, Friday night) - tune into CBC Radio One (RealAudio). The program IDEAS is running an interesting feature on a Toronto composer who interviewed his grandfather about his life, and set the recordings to music.
Don't worry if you missed it. When it becomes available, I'll post a link to the archived version of the program.

Not directly on point, but my only chance to tell my only IDEAS anecdote: on the way home from cello practise, soccer practise, hockey practise, etc., my little brothers John and Steve were forced by our father to listen to IDEAS on the CBC. At the time, and for years after, they thought the introduction was "Hello, I'm Mister Sinclair" rather than "Hello, I'm Lister Sinclair." This confusion is one of the bedrock anecdotes of our family, something you can only understand if you are a member of our family.
