Top notch reporting and analysis

The CBC World Report team helps keeping me in touch with what’s happening in Canada, the US, and around the world

First listen

The first thing I listen to every morning for a great summary of what’s happening!

I hope the radio stations aren’t getting a stale newscast

Since this week, World Report drops once around midnight ET or something. Considering no radio station airs World Report until 5 Eastern Time and some as late 11 ET (8 PT), nobody better be hearing a newscast 11 hours old. That’s if you’re putting it in the can at midnight and bailing. Before this week a fresh broadcast dropped hourly between 5 & 11 ET. If this is the result of cutbacks and layoffs, you might want to let people know.

Really Appreciate World Report!

An essential listen for me, daily. Thanks for this

I was submitted to an anti-choice ad this morning.

It is super disappointing that the CBC would sell ad space to anti-choice groups. Wow. This is so frustrating and upsetting.

Please fix the set up

My favorite news cast. But recently even though I’m subscribed new episodes don’t show up on iPhone podcast app. Must be something about how it’s posted. Please fix this for your loyal listeners.

No new podcasts

No new podcasts since 3/3/21. Other CBC podcasts stop updating on the same day. What happened?

Posting without times

These aren’t showing up in my feed anymore as you’re posting without times. Please fix!

You’re posting these without times, so they don’t appear in subscribers’ show feeds

You’re posting these without times, so they don’t appear in subscribers’ show feeds (it’s been this way for the last few days I think)
