The CBC is SO woke. Really a turn off. Media should give you information - it shouldn’t tell you what to think. They need to fire everyone under age 40! Haha.
Welcome Nil Koksal!

I’ve been an active listener since 2020. There is no news show like this. Nil is a formidable new force to join the show. Straight-shooting, intelligent reporting highlights the most important world news of the moment - talking with those IN the moment. I am learning every day without the annoyance of fluffy network news! They also tie in GREAT human interest stories along the way to keep things entertaining and light. But still newsworthy! Never a waste of my time! A++
I love hearing the Canadian perspective.
