  • Love Noor, Meh Jesse

    I support independent Canadian journalism. Canadaland’s coverage on the election was chef’s kiss. Noor is an excellent and relatable journalist. Jesse incessantly brings every conversation about Israel’s genocide in Gaza to centre anti-semitism which is beyond tone deaf 23 months into this genocide. Keep up the great work, Noor. Do better, Jesse.

  • Ok show, but …

    Ok show until they get on the subject of gender ideology - they talk about it like it’s 2020 and never present the feminist stance - I could never financially support a news outfit that is essentially pushing propaganda rather than presenting the complexity of a subject which is legitimately controversial. They’re either biased or ignorant and both are shameful for a serious news organization.

  • Pulling support

    I’m pulling my support for this show. Too much tepid both sides-ism on Israel/Gaza from Jesse. Saying we don’t know Anas al-Sharif was not a Hamas fighter. Give me a freaking break.

  • Love it

    I really like the podcast and I am a supporter. I like how it covers many topics and shows different opinions and point of views. From the scams online of virtual stores to debates about productivity in Canada with two economics with different point of views … I feel I am getting enough information to either look for more or critically consumed other news. Thank you for your work

  • Typical Canadian propaganda

    I was hoping for a non biased opinion of world politics but it’s the same anti American, climate change nonsense.
