Canada5 months ago This is the podcast I recommend consistently to people who want to learn about Indigenous worldviews, because this podcast isn't Indigenous people doing labour to educate colonizers, it's Indigenous people talking to each other about the things they love. I have learned so much about the way Indigenous people view the world from this podcast
Podcast Addict510 months agoTheNihilistbear- Marginal podcast at best
Every time I catch this on the radio I wonder why, with such a large cbc budget, it is such a terrible podcast.
Every story seems to be making a story out of something that is not actually an interesting story. I am left wondering what the point is other than making settlers feel guilty about being here.
Surely there can be some worthwhile tales of First Nation life to tell.
