I've got a bunch of CBC podcasts that I love.
Under the Influence has great storytelling and talks a lot about the history of marketing in very interesting ways.
We Regret to Inform You is by the same people and talks about the hardships some people have had to go through before making it big. I really only listen to episodes about people I already know about though.
The Debaters is a great comedy podcast. I also listen to Laugh out Loud and have been caught laughing my head off in the middle of the dog park.
Backstage at the Vinyl Cafe is going through Stuart McLean's Vinyl Cafe stories and adding a bit of background about each story. I thought I'd skip the background stuff, but it's actually not bad to listen to. Stuart McLean was such an amazing story teller and I always love hearing these stories about Canada.
Quirks and Quarks is a great science podcast although I kicked it off my list for a while until I can clear my other backlog.
One US based podcast I would still recommend (They're not political, but still not pro Trump) is Go Fact Yourself. Great podcast in a trivia game show format. The central idea is really cool. Pick 3 topics outside your field of work that you're an expert in. They then quiz you on one of those three topics with a special guest expert in the topic who comes on at the end. And the people they get are absolutely amazing! They had Walter Koenig on as an expert, and then he liked the show so much he came back as a player.
When I would travel up to northern Ontario there were basically 3 stations on the radio, 6 of them were CBC.
I love each and every one of the programs you listed. The debaters is always hilarious and quirks and quarks, well, I'm a nerd and being in the middle of the wilderness and geeking out on that show was the pinnacle of existence.
Some people had mix tapes, I had my CBC.
Great recommendations! Cheers!
