Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

CHUM 104.5's new morning show duo 'Nat & Josie' with PD Christian Hall
Q: Why two women leading the CHUM morning show?
It wasn't framed as a gender-driven choice; instead, CHUM sought the two best broadcasters for the market who could carry forward the brand with credibility and energy, acknowledging Marilyn Dennis's legacy but focusing on the future.
CHUM 104.5's new morning show duo 'Nat & Josie' with PD Christian Hall
Q: What can we expect from the new CHUM morning show?
The hosts promise authentic, real, and inclusive programming with strong on-air chemistry, a collaborative dynamic between Nat and Josie, and a focus on listener participation to keep the show feeling current while honoring CHUM's heritage.
Rogers Sports & Media alumni Sheldon MacLeod, Robert Linden, Lisa Blackburn & Amanda Wawryk on station closures and the future of broadcast news
Q: Do you think the CRTC should bring back the requirement for local news, Robert?
Robert Linden argues that the requirement was part of the original promise of performance and its removal undermines the core purpose of local news; the absence of such requirements could weaken accountability and trust in broadcasting, suggesting a re-evaluation of policy may be warranted.

Q: How do you define success for podcasts, especially when funding bodies look at downloads?
Success isn't just downloads; it's whether a show effectively serves a specific audience and achieves meaningful outcomes for that niche, even if overall reach is smaller; engagement and measurable impact matter, and funding criteria are evolving toward broader engagement metrics.

Q: Why did you take on the Canada Best Podcasts Ranked project, and what methodology are you using?
I wanted a clearer, centralized view of the Canadian podcast landscape and turned to AI tools to pull data from multiple sources; the initial version surfaced many great, previously under-the-radar shows, and I plan to refine the ranking with public data and community feedback.
