The Best of Canadian Podcasting with The Great White Pod
Living in Canada means being surrounded by a wealth of creative expression, especially when it comes to podcasts. The Great White Pod is dedicated to shining a light on this vibrant medium and the incredible individuals behind the mic.
As your host, Danny Brown, I’m thrilled to sit down with fellow podcasters to explore their unique journeys, the craft of storytelling, and the episodes that have left a lasting impact on their listeners. Each conversation is a treasure trove of insights, providing a glimpse into the heart of podcasting in Canada.
We take a close look at a few standout episodes from our guests' shows, unpacking the emotional and creative processes that went into creating them.
- What makes a podcast episode truly resonate?
- How do personal experiences shape the stories we tell?
These are just a couple of the questions we tackle as we dive into the art of podcasting. Additionally, we take a moment to discuss the broader Canadian podcast landscape—what it means to be a creator in this space, and the sense of community that exists among podcasters across the country.
Before we sign off, we never miss the chance to recommend another must-listen podcast that showcases Canadian talent.
Released bi-weekly on Tuesdays, The Great White Pod isn’t just about highlighting great shows; it’s about fostering a love for the craft of podcasting and building connections within our community.
