I use parts of this in my social studies class. Well-researched and beautifully delivered by these talented women. Thank-you!

A great podcast that should be a entry requirement to enter Canada ( even 4 vacation) 🎉💯✔️

I started listening to your podcast a few months ago and instantly fell in love! What a great podcast - informative, fun, but with an appropriate seriousness for the tough topics that we otherwise don’t ever learn about (or topics that we learn wrong). I appreciate the hosts SO much, and all the...Read full review »

I LOVE your pod cast! I have an hour commute to work everyday and I so look forward to your episodes! You are both so funny and have such important things to say! I just can’t get enough! You are my first podcast, and every other podcast I listen to, just is not you and can’t compare! Thank...Read full review »

Californian here. This pod entertains and informs about so many varied aspects of Canadian life and culture - stories I haven’t heard elsewhere. Kudos to the hosts!

I heard this episode via Front Burner and provided great information; even details I had never heard before (thank you Ms. Kim!). One detail made in jest I felt lacked important context. Lieutenant General Charles “Tick” Bonesteel (pronounced ‘Bonn-uh-stel’) was not at all the backwoods hick...Read full review »

This is the best Canadian podcast of 2023 and I’ve been saying this since 2019. Using historical facts to inform modern discourse, I never fail to learn something!
Alcanadanow via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/23
Only thing wrong with this podcast is that new episodes frequently enough. Our history is embarrassing but we have to expose the truth so as not to repeat. Great work!

sub to brynjarmorris via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/13/23
Amazing content aside, I often get excited when a new episode drops into my feed because I just want to hear Leah and Falen’s voices. After 5 seasons, I feel like their my smart friends I don’t get to see enough of. I recommend this podcast to anyone who gives a damn about the work that needs...Read full review »

Thanks for doing such an incredibly good quality and invested job with this podcast Falen and Leah! I am learning so much and I really REALLY appreciate the way you both seem to bring your whole heart and your fun humour to these valuable topics and challenging pieces of our history.
BrieKMP via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/12/23
As a newcomer in Canada I can’t stress enough all the gratitude I feel for listening amazing information. I just heard this episode, I live in BC and love the nature around me. Thank you for spotting the lights to one of the most valuables things that make Canada beautiful: the animals. Amazing!

and evolving. This season has been phenomenal so far!
this.name.has.not.been.taken via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/28/23
Really good, usually learn things in each episode.
Green Shirt via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/26/23
Insightful, Relevant, and Entertaining. I would recommend that show to everyone with a curious mind.
Kofi3801 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/18/23
Great podcast lots of history I have learned so much about Canada
🦅🐣🐧🙊🐷🐯 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/07/23
I’ve been looking for an easy fun way to learn more about the history of Canada and this is it!
smurlex via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/19/23
It’s always exciting to learn new and informative things about the country you live in. But most of all, I love the hosts. They make the podcast come to life!
Sj12345678) via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/22/22
Poor editorial choices. Weak interviews. Pass.
TVdonyoung via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/11/22
Falen and Leah are an absolute delight! They are incredible storytellers that demonstrate and allow learning, naming, and calling out alongside basic human-ing (aka self care) in a wonderfully accessible way.
CuriousLindsay via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/30/22
Just discovered the podcast and can’t stop listening! Ever thought of doing an episode on the ‘mysterious’ indigenous village of Hochelaga, from Cartier’s first venture into what is now Montreal.
Nelson Daves via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/29/22
I love this podcast, it is great for learning new things about Canada and it’s history. I appreciate how you two talk about important topics to raise awareness on them.
Mikayla Bear 913 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/10/22
Thank you for your time, hard work, and creative. This show was a huge eye opener for me.
ThAbyss via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/30/22
I have learned so much about so many histories that haven’t been told.
Chris9654to via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/19/22
Leah and Falen do an amazing job of making Canadian history (including the uglier parts) fascinating. I never considered myself a history buff, but The Secret Life of Canada has taught me so much AND inspired me to find out more on multiple occasions. These two hosts bring storytelling skills and...Read full review »

This podcast should be played in history classes
elizhb via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/16/22
Love learning about Métis,First Nation and Inuit peoples of Canada thanks. And now I’ve been on the podcast
spinning chair via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/15/22
I had a lot of hope for this podcast. I love history. I have really enjoyed other CBC podcasts like Escaping NXIVM, Satanic Panic, On Drugs, etc. I find that the content falls short however. There is banter between the hosts that frankly I can’t relate to and seems to be used to fill time that in...Read full review »
Different_Drummer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/07/22
Great idea to interview historians, but perhaps try spending more than two minutes of an episode with them // Nothing about the incomparably brutal XY Company and North West companies spreading false rumours about infected blankets, nor about the Hudson’s Bay Company’s role in vaccination (let...Read full review »

Really informative without being dull! Made me want to go and read more about things I thought I already understood.
kpotterquebec via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/14/22
I think I started listening to this podcast sometime in its first season. It’s such a great podcast and even though I list track of it for a while it’s still a good thing to listen to to learn things that aren’t known or are hidden.
yuiureu via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/06/22
My first podcast as others have said and I am hooked! Love the hosts, and I love all of the stories. Canada is definitely an extremely diverse country. You’ve encouraged me to start listening to other indigenous broadcasts, as I am Métis and continuing my journey of knowledge about who I am....Read full review »

I’m not Canadian, but appreciate my neighbors to the north. I find this podcast very informative and super appreciate the work that goes into it. Keep up the great work.
Joybeaginger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/22
When I decided to try out podcasts when the pandemic first started, I wanted to find one that would reconnect me to my home country. I was living abroad for 15 years, was homesick, and remembered Canada as perfection. Leah-Simone and Falen brought me back down to Earth, and I faced the truth...Read full review »

I love the hosts, they are relatable and have so much fun.
ShaunnaL32 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/06/22
Definitely one of my favourite podcasts. It is way more informative and interesting than anything that I learned in my high school social studies class. I appreciate that the information and subjects addressed are not “sugarcoated”. But there are still funny and inspiring episodes and moments....Read full review »

As a homesick Canadian living stateside I find this pod just warms the cockles of my Canuck heart. Keep up the wonderful work, guys!
Lord Networthington via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/01/22
I love this podcast! Have lived in the US for over 30 years, but originally from Toronto. I love this content and the witty and irreverent hosts. Thanks for being an emotional link to home! It’s not just the content, it is the uniquely funny and self deprecating Canadian delivery 😍🇨🇦
icbtaiji via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/29/21
Easy to access good Canadian history. Well balanced and not from the usual historical perspective.

Thanks! So great.

Found the podcast in preparation for a road trip with a serious lack of radio signals. So so thankful I did. My 12 yr old & I learned so many things about Canadian history and really appreciate the suggestions for how to help improve our country as it is currently. You have some new fans and...Read full review »

Enjoying this podcast immensely and learning so much. They manage to tell these stories with candour, humour and lightheartedness, without sugarcoating anything.
