Reviews

4.2 out of 5 stars from 2.1k ratings
  • As advertised

    10 minutes of mainly just international headlines, which is exactly what I want. That being said, this podcast has become “Daily updates on Israel/Palestine, Russia/Ukraine”. There are plenty of other headlines that are being ignored for non-substantive updates on these two conflicts; it is tiresome.

    Update: lowering the score after reporting that anyone in Australia that disagrees with the government are N***s. Are you kidding?

  • Biased and obsessed with Israel

    Biased reporting, and hyper-focused solely on one conflict day after day after day. Not to mention contributing to the disgusting antisemitic climate in Canada we see today. They seem to forget there are other news-worthy things going on in the world… Very disappointing and shameful

  • Liberal mouthpiece

    CBC never fails to provide their bias. Maybe they should also notify listeners how much money they get from the liberal government.
