At ten years old, the Canadaland network has had its share of successes: investigative journalism, powerful accountability interviews, thoughtful analysis, critique of the media when it’s at its worst, and telling the weird, often untold stories about Canada. 

It has also had a few misses, like hiring the voice actor for Lisa Simpson to advertise for the company.

Today’s episode features a few segments from the recent live show at the Hot Docs Podcast Festival, with hosts Mattea Roach, Jonathan Goldsbie, Allison Smith, Karyn Pugliese, Arshy Mann, and popular Short Cuts co-host Jan Wong interviews Jesse Brown.

Host: Jesse Brown 

Credits: Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Annette Ejiofor (Managing Editor), Karyn Pugliese (Editor-in-Chief)

Special Thanks: Crystal MacDonell, Michael Robinson, Patrick McKenna and the rest of the Hot Docs team who helped coordinate the event.

“Here's something that not many people know about the baby business.  There are ‘leg-men.’ We call them ‘leg-men’ though some of them are women, who make it their business to find pregnant women who are not married. The leg-men look for them in a million and one places. They meet them in bars and parks and cafes and all over. They hear things.”  - Eugene Moyneur (ex-wrester, ex-bodybuilder, baby-smuggler)
