I use parts of this in my social studies class. Well-researched and beautifully delivered by these talented women. Thank-you!
Terrible podcast
Aug 10
I now understand why people say “defund the CBC”. This podcast should be named “why I hate Canada and the people who made it”. What exactly is the point of even doing this podcast. So one sided. I agree with other reviews on how juvenile it is.
Stick to the topic
Jun 27
The topics are really interesting and could be great show - but often the hosts get sidetracked and make jokes that are so distracting. It’s a little too much. We get it, you’re trying to be edgy and irreverent, but it’s at the expense of the history you’re trying to represent.
Juvenile
May 6
In the very first episode the women are laughing about cannibalism and minimalising the Hudson’s Bay Company. I know what they are trying to say but it comes across as unreliable, biased, and juvenile. This can be done with decorum.
