Put it on the front burner
December 5, 2018 9:25 AM   Subscribe

Front Burner is a new(ish) podcast from CBC that goes in-depth on a issue currently in the news. Being from CBC, there is a focus on Canadian news, but many of the stories cover global issues.

It's a thoughtful, well-produced podcast, generally in the 20-30 minute range and released every weekday.

Some recent stand-out episodes:
* After seven months trapped inside an airport, a refugee calls Canada home.
* Is Canada ready for Russian election meddling?
* Viola Desmond's unfinished work.

Thank you for the recommendation! As a recent migrant to Canada, I've been looking for ways to Canadianize my news intake!
