“Editorial meeting: “Hey guys so the two Michaels were released should we do a story about that?” “No let’s do a story about the United States.”
Recent episodes have approached complex issues in a totally uncritical and one-sided manner. This is not a podcast for nuance or risk, especially when the subject matter might tread into politically or culturally sensitive waters. More bland middle of the road content generation that dares not to offend or challenge the listener. …
The Mark McKinnon episode on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was better than The Daily’s. Struck a balance between news, analysis, and modern history. Excellent. Hope it continues to lean on the best reporters and stay focused on a subject. …
Coming here with high hopes and expectations. The first episode was alright because Andre Picard is a knowledgeable reporter, but the questions were scattershot and it made for a very unfocused, too high level episode. If you have any media literacy whatsoever, then you’d find literally no new insights or points of view or analysis here. Hoping that it gets better.
Thanks In the second episode, Roma Luciw makes totally speculative claims about savings and the CERB based less on any evidence or analysis and more on what sounds correct. Rob Carrick delivers but overall this show continues to disappoint, so far.”

“I’m just so disappointed in this series : I had hoped for really insightful discussions about current affairs . I thought it would be a mixture of At Issue and The Daily …..instead it just sounds so bland , I often just stop listening. ( I don’t fall asleep but that’s because I’m usually driving...”Read full review »
