July 22, 2025
The music world is in a state of shock this afternoon, as tributes from rock stars and heavy metal fans pour in for the voice of Black Sabbath. Ozzy Osbourne, who lived well beyond his expected years, passed away this morning with friends and family by his side. He was 76 years old. Guest host Chris Holski sifts through Ozzy’s everlasting legacy with music journalist Alan Cross. When it’s all said and done, is he the most influential frontman in rock-and-roll history? We open the textboard and welcome your honest feedback. Plus, it’s been one full year since the ByWard Market Police Hub opened its doors at the Rideau Centre. Have things gotten better? Rideau-Vanier councillor Stephanie Plante provides her two cents on that subject.
