Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Fri. October 24th, 2025

In Hour 3, it’s all about the Toronto Blue Jays, as guest host Andrew Pinsent tackles today’s Question of the Day.

Some weren’t even alive to witness it. Will you be watching Game 1 of the World Series? If you’re a Jays fan, how did your fandom first begin to take shape? And if you get your hands on a World Series ticket, are you heading to the Rogers Centre? Text into the show and let us know!
