Subscribed! Been enjoying this podcast and newsletter since it was launched, and I look forward to each episode. It’s so refreshing to hear a balanced perspective. Reminds me of CBC radio back in the days of Peter Gzowski. So many voices are muzzled, or censor themselves. I’m grateful you were brave enough to step into the unknown and go off on your own.
