“Wiretap is the benchmark in which I compare any other radio/podcast. I’ve yet to find a show that is comparable. You should go look on the internet and listen to them all.
This podcast, is hot garbage. There was a trickle of content, and now just puts out ads for other cbc shows.”

“Endless creative entertainment! Daily mundane life made fascinating, by way of absurdity exaggerated, but only enough to maintain the reality of our quirky and disturbing humanity.
Thank you so very much!”

“This is one of the best radio programs/podcasts of the modern era if not all time. The fluctuation between side-splitting laughter and gut-wrenching emotions is remarkable. Goldstein is a master storyteller, often leaving you walking around your day thinking of the dark or funny or darkly funny...”Read full review »

“When the show was originally on the radio years ago, it kept me entertained during long drives for work. The timing of this coming out during the pandemic gave me happy-nostalgia. The mix of silly phone calls between Jonathan and Gregor interspersed with introspective stories is great.”

“Found this show back in 2008 and became a loyal listener whenever a new episode I could find aired. I loved it, it was really well written and well acted and sometimes felt like it wasn’t. I was incredibly sad to see it go off the air. I still listen to it years later, kind of in the same...”Read full review »

“Wiretap is a unique and brilliant show, I am a huge fan, but this CBC podcast format stinks. Inane commercials keep interrupting Jonathan’s carefully created flow, the shows being advertised are ill-serviced by the extremely poor and obnoxious ads and I have to say that Tony Ho appears to be the...”Read full review »

“I love Johnothan Goldstein, he is a fantastic storyteller and an extrememly funny human. Howard is my spirit animal. The only problem with this podcast is that the COMMERCIALS ARE SO GODDAMN LOUD! Keep UP the good work and turn DOWN the commercial volume. Thanks.”

“I was really sad when Wiretap was over. Back then, I had only recently gotten into it, and it felt like saying goodbye to a good friend that I’d just met. It’s so nice to hear old episodes that I was never able to listen to in my original listenings. Thank you for bringing them back. I feel like...”Read full review »

“This is one of those bizarrely contrived shows that decision makers at CBC seem to want to push despite having no redeeming qualities.
Weird is not the same as funny, nor is obnoxious behaviour necessarily funny. Sometimes it’s just boring and stupid.
It’s not that I don’t “get” the humour. I...”Read full review »
