On Sunday, March 5th, 1933 at 1:30 PM, Spencer delivered a radio address over CKOK, a Windsor-based radio station founded only nine months prior. Despite it being a year and a half since his visit to the Soviet Union, Spencer continues to be very optimistic about the country's future. In addressing the famine of 1932, he dismisses reports of starvation and attributes the "agricultural problem" to crop failures and transportation issues, rather than collectivization— which, Spencer continues to insist is wholly voluntary.
In a few months time after Spencer's address, the CKOK would merge with a London-based group to be renamed CKLW, which it is still called today. Curiously, the only radio address Spencer gave was for a station which existed in its name for barely over a year.
The CKOK radio address is also viewable as a transcript.
