One big problem with our country is that our own identity and culture has been eroded by American pop culture. It’s honestly good to get away from American media and focus on Canadian made content otherwise we our identity and culture just blends into American culture and I hate that.
It’s tragic too when there is so much Canadian media that gets overshadowed as a result. I’ve been picking up Orphan Black again which is a fantastic series, but too many Americans have never heard of it.

They only had a Twitter and FB, so there’s not really a website to link to. I don’t know if it still works but it was pretty fun back in the day.
Ah thanks, not one for podcasts but good to be aware of!
