Customer Reviews
This one fulfills the podcast promise
Not to gush too much about this podcast, but "Holy S**t!" this one rocks! If you only subscribe to one podcast, this should be it. Music is fresh every week and this is not a retread of an existing radio program. This podcast was created specifically to be a podcast. The DJ is funny, the format is great and the music always, always rocks. Reach out and love your Canadian brothers and sisters, becuase this is what makes Canada great: Culture elevated to art and music that transcends time and space :)
A cool refreshing breeze from up north...
I look forward to every episode coming in with some fresh, unpretentious music. From the countdown to Grant's stories and adlibs it is a pleasure to LOAD up with some tunes from Canada. Plus every podcast is broken up for you ever so nicely so you learn who you like and who you don't....not to mention the many benefits of the metric system!
This makes me want to visit Canada
I have sought out artists featured on this podcast, and I'm just in a girl in Ohio. So I guess it's doing it's job. I really look forward to this, even though I don't like all the music all the time. It's certainly interesting, and the music is too.
