- Not posting episodes in a timely manner
I’ve been a regular listener of At Issue for years and while I like the panel, I am noticing that episodes are no longer appearing in the Apple Podcasts app for days. I see them posted to YouTube within an hour of the broadcast. By the time they show up here it’s old news. Please respect your podcast listeners CBC News!

Canadaa month ago - Excellent Political Analysis & Commentary
This show is fantastic. I greatly appreciate the depth of knowledge and experience the entire panel bring to the table; often offering unexpected and interesting perspectives on what originally appear straightforward issues. The format of friendly disagreement for sharing of ideas is a real pleasure to listen to in these highly polarised and combative times.
