Podcast Festival: The Secret Life of Canada

Showings

Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema Mon, Nov 5, 2018 9:00 PM

Description

What do we talk about when we talk about Canada? In the wake of the Canada 150 celebrations, local playwrights and history nerds Leah-Simone Bowen and Falen Johnson agreed it was time to look at our nation’s untold and under-told histories.  The Secret Life of Canada was born and quickly rose to the top of the iTunes charts with its highly entertaining and richly subversive selection of stories— from what lies beneath Banff National Park to our country's mysterious wave of feminist bear porn. Meet the fascinating places and characters you didn't learn about in school brought to thrilling life on stage by two of our most dynamic storytellers. 

Special live episode "Toronto vs. Everyone: The History Behind Why Canada Hates Us," with onstage guests Brandon Hackett, Jane Luk and Kris Siddiqui, with live music by Matthew Reid.

Voted The Globe and Mail's Best of 2017, Nominee, Best Podcast — 2018 Digital Publishing Award
