A weekly documentary show for people who love narrative podcasts. These are stories you can't stop thinking about. That you'll tell your friends about. And that will help you understand what's going on in Canada, and why. Every week a journalist follows one story, meets the people at its centre, and makes it make sense. Sometimes it's about people living out the headlines in real life. Sometimes it's about someone you've never heard of, living through something you had no idea was happening. Either way, you'll go somewhere, meet someone, get the context, and learn something new. (Plus it sounds really good. Mixed like a movie.) One story, well told, every week, from the award-winning team at the CBC Audio Doc Unit. more
