Reviews

4.2 out of 5 stars from 2k ratings
  • As advertised

    10 minutes of mainly just intentional headlines, which is exactly what I want. That being said, this podcast has become “Daily updates on Israel/Palestine, Russia/Ukraine”. There are plenty of other headlines that are being ignored for non-substantive updates on these two conflicts; it is tiresome.

    Update: lowering the score after reporting that anyone in Australia that disagrees with the government are N***s. Are you kidding?

  • Unpalatable Bias

    Usually has great stories but increasingly pushing hyper biased ones. Constant updates on Gaza but never updates on Ukraine, Sudan. I can easily find unbiased news if I look beyond Canada but I shouldn’t have to. Canadians deserve unbiased news, please do better you are publicly funded.

  • Best Canadian Morning News

    I listen to this every morning (either as the podcast or live radio) and it is always excellent. 10m is the prefect amount of time to get the big stories.
