  • From CHEK News World HQ🌎

    Weekly (sort of) review of what happened in BC politics. I just hope the timing for the ad break is managed a bit better.

  • Great but panelists should disclose their clients

    Love the podcast, but wish the panelists disclosed their clients so listeners could assess conflict of interest. e.g. Framepoint Public Affairs… who are their customers?

  • Could be so much better

    Jeff really drags this podcast down. His partisanship is over the top.

    The premise and others are great but Jeff makes it borderline unlistenable (often have to turn off once he starts reciting NDP talking points)

    Great work Rob.. you call a “silver hat”, a “silver hat” despite the views of your pendants. Love your energy and calm yet focused sense of humour. A must listen for me each week.
