TORONTO – Global News is launching its first original daily news podcast that seeks to provide listeners with deeper context and understanding of current events.
Hosted by Global News journalist Tamara Khandaker (formerly a reporter for Vice and the Toronto Star), Wait, There’s More will be available weekday afternoons starting June 10 on all major podcast platforms.
“The world today moves incredibly fast and it’s easy to fall behind the news cycle,” said Khandaker, in the news release. “With Wait, There’s More, we’ll keep listeners informed by taking them inside the headlines to reveal the full story, explore new angles, ask tough questions, and talk directly to the people most affected by the biggest stories.”
A collaboration between Global News and the Curiouscast podcast network, subscription links for Wait, There’s More are available now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Castbox, and all other major podcast platforms.
“People are demanding more high-quality news content that goes deeper into the big issues of the day, that they can experience on their schedule – at home, at work or on the road,” said added Global News’ director of online news content George Browne. “With the daily podcast Wait, There’s More, Global News will do just that, and on a growing medium that is perfect for those wanting much more from their news.”
Global News and Curiouscast are Corus Entertainment Networks.
