The Snark was a music variety show broadcast on CJAM 99.1-fm from 1 to 2:30 p.m. every Tuesday afternoon from the CAW Student Centre on the campus of the University of Windsor. This show is now retired.
Snark, Adapted
In Lewis Carroll's nonsense poem "The Hunting of The Snark: An Agony in Eight Fits," The Bellman assembles an odd crew for a strange journey. They set sail in search of a Snark.
It works the same on the radio...
We're always on the look-out for snarks, boojums, and other musical monsters...
We find them too. Every week.

"You may seek it with thimbles -- and seek it with care;
You may hunt it with forks and hope;
You may threaten its life with a railway share;
You may charm it with smiles and soap --
...
For the Snark's a peculiar creature, that won't
Be caught in a commonplace way.
Do all that you know and try all that you don't:
Not a chance must be wasted to-day!"
