| Broadcaster Profile |
| Ruby Slippers |
|  Ruby Slippers has a particular focus on humorous, clever tunes that are brilliant or potentially a bit silly. Songs that simply entertain with a catchy beat or melody, songs that have a message about environmental protection, or issues that effect our lives-and songs that may invoke a positive outlook on life are also played on the show.
