How can I request a song?
- There are a couple of ways to go about this. First, go to our
“Music” section and click on “requests”,
or go to “Contacts” in our navigation menu (on the left)
and e-mail the CHUM FM announcer directly. Of course, the easiest
way to make a request is to simply click here!
How long will it take for you to play my request?
- It really depends on the request. We get such a wide variety
and large volume of requests, it would be impossible to play them
all (or even half of them, for that matter). The absolute best way
to get a request played on the air is through the “Back In
The Day Café” and “Lost ‘80s Brunch”…
and you can even make a dedication! Which brings us to our next
question…
How can I get a request on the “Back in the Day Café”
or the “Lost 80’s Brunch”?
- Well, you can click here
or go to the “Music” section and click on “requests”,
then fill out the form and click to submit.
- The “Back In The Day Café” and “Lost
‘80s Brunch” are the best vehicles for getting your
request played on CHUM FM. For the “Back In The Day Café”,
you can send your request by clicking here
or you can call us at 416-870-1045, Monday-Friday from 10 am to
noon. You can even make a dedication on the air!
You can also contact us by text message. Simply text your request to us at 1045FM (that’s 104536 on your phone). There’s a 50 cent charge on each message.
- For the “Lost ‘80s Brunch”, you can click here
or reach us at a couple of numbers. During the show (Sunday mornings
from 9 to noon), call 416-870-1045 and talk to Maie Pauts directly,
or call our 24-hour “Brunch” hotline at 416-967-1045
and leave us a message. We could play your request and dedication
on the air!
Again, you can also reach us by text message. Simply text your request to us at 1045FM (that’s 104536 on your phone). 50 cent charge per message.
How do I email a CHUM FM DJ?
Simply click on “Contact” from the menu on the left,
choose the person you want to reach and then send your message.
It’s that easy.
We seriously try to answer every single e-mail message that we get.
In the off-chance that you don’t receive a reply, try this
e-mail: 411@chumfm.com

the closest subway stop?
