Episodes under the past host were pretty good. Now the episodes are tacky at best. The Alberta separatism episode with Barry Cooper was disgusting. Why would you platform someone who says something as divisive as "nobody cares what happens in the Maritimes"? That interview was full of misinformation and should not have made it to publication.
I used to love this Podcast. Not a fan of the new host so deleting it.
Why are you stuffing extra bulls—- into this feed? Can I not just have what I signed up for?
Having a separatist on is one thing but to have very little pushback on it? No thanks I’m not listening anymore.
Too much commercial time. Topics are too varied. Most don’t interest me. Stick to news instead rebroadcasting other podcasts
