Tuesday, January 25 - 7:30 PM (EST)

Featuring an exclusive preview of a brand-new limited series by Anna Maria Tremonti

We all have a secret or two. Why are some hard to keep, and others hard to share? What are we still afraid to talk about in 2022? Are some secrets best kept hidden? Building on the theme of their highly entertaining and richly subversive CBC podcast, The Secret Life of Canada, co-hosts Leah Simone Bowen and Falen Johnson return to the festival with a star-studded storytelling showcase. Alongside a wild, weaving story from The Secret Life of Canada, hear intimate accounts from CBC’s Pop Chat, the acclaimed White Hot Hate (recently named one of the Top 50 Podcasts of 2021 by The Atlantic), and Anna Maria Tremonti’s soon-to-be released Welcome to Paradise, a deeply-personal six-part memoir in which the renowned journalist reveals a 40-year secret. Come join some of Canada's top podcasting talent for a night of eye-opening revelations.

With stories by:

• Elamin Abdelmahmoud, Amil Niazi and Kevin Fallon (Pop Chat)

• Leah Simone Bowen and Falen Johnson (The Secret Life of Canada)

• Ryan Thorpe (White Hot Hate)

• Anna Maria Tremonti and Farzana Doctor (the all-new CBC podcast, Welcome to Paradise)
