“I will miss Mary Hynes’s incredible talent to thoughtfully ask the most insightful queries.
You exude compassion, I’m sad. Take care Mary.

“Such a loss for Tapestry to be coming to an end!
And old episodes removed from the podcast-why?
You will be missed Mary”

“I appreciate their efforts to present shows that help us make sense of the extraordinary event we are experiencing and to provide us with coping tools and new perspectives. To the person who criticized the lack of emphasis on Christianity, Tapestry’s mission is to explore spirituality, religion...”Read full review »

“Gaining a wide scope of understanding the spiritual beliefs around the globe and our history on this show is truly enlightening. It fills my soul with a better understanding of our shared existence. The interviews are in depth but also moments of laughter and joy. Thank you CBC.”

“Tapestry used to be a must-listen for me but it’s been getting less and less interesting over the past couple of years. Was this a conscious decision to dumb it down or make more “fun”? Really too bad, and there’s nothing on CBC radio to fill the slot that Tapestry once did.”

“I enjoy that this podcast/radio show has many diverse backgrounds and religions. It’s not just for diversity sake, it’s a conscious effort to reflex real life and view point about ways of doing or practicing religions. I really enjoyed hearing people like Casper Ter Kuille, who I know from Harry...”Read full review »

“I happened upon this show on my car radio while driving through Ontario on my way to New York from Iowa. It was an interview with a Rolling Stone reporter who had visited Medjugorje to report on the alleged apparitions of Mary. I’ve been hooked ever since and listen in the States via podcast....”Read full review »

“The topics of summer episodes hosted by Christa Couture and Narcy Alsalman were marred by extraordinary self centred perspective of the hosts. Wow. Not since SookYin Lee have I heard such unbridled egos making each topic about themselves and scope limited by their narrow perspectives.”

“This show is always interesting and covers a very wide range of topics all centered on some aspect of spirituality and/or religion. Mary Hynes has an ease with the people she interviews which gives the feeling the listener is there visiting with the guest. I definitely look forward to each episode.”
