  • Paying the bills

    We know you have to pay the bills, but this podcast has a higher advert-to-content ratio than any free podcast I’ve heard to date. A little frustrating for those of us too broke to pay for premium.

  • Unbiased

    Podcasters are the freedom fighters of our time. CANADALAND helps to inform us in a way that makes sense and reminds me of how “proud” I am to be Canadian. Worth the subscription cost.

  • Ok show, but …

    Ok show but the advertisements! It’s 70% adverts! They’re also annoyingly woke but since it’s majority opinion as opposed to actual reporting that’s their option - but the adverts are overwhelming.

  • Pro Genocide

    I have been a listener for more than a decade and was a paid subscriber as well. I can’t listen anymore, the Zionist pro-genocide rhetoric from Jesse is abhorrent. Arguing that a Palestinian child starved to death during a genocide not because the actions of Israel but because of pre-existing conditions? This is not journalism, it’s a personal agenda. Do the (much better) journalists on the Canadaland team a favor and improve your editorial standards. Jesse needs to step away.

  • I used to like this podcast

    Seems very pro-Israel without much sympathy for the Palestinians. That’s what has turned me off.
