Looking for suggestions for decent Canadian politics podcasts. Currently I’ve only found the House and The Backbench are good on the regular - but discoverability is a challenge with most podcast lists dominated by American content.

Recommendations?

If you're listening to the Backbench, you probably already know about the other Canadaland podcasts, but I'll add a plug for that and the Copernic Affair. CBC's Frontburner can be good from time to time.

I'm really disappointed that The Big Story dropped Jordan Heath Rawlings. That was a great show.

Actually I didn’t explore the other Canadaland podcasts - so I very much appreciate the pointer!

The regular show is fairly personality driven - if you don't like the hosts, it can be a slog.

But I highly recommend the Copernic Affair. It's a good true-crime type podcast.
