Customer Reviews
Really great podcasts
Bite-sized, thought provoking conversations from passionate, persuasive people. Loved listening to Carol Off and Terry O’Reilly in particular, recently :)

Nothing more than group think
Fresh ideas welcome
I think the Walrus is one of those journalism sources you can count on for a new angle.
