Harbinger Showcase

Harbinger Showcase is a weekly podcast featuring highlights from Canada's #1 coast-to-coast community of politically and socially progressive podcasts.
On this week's episode:
Ever since Facebook banned Canadian news in 2023, the task of building spaces for independent journalism to thrive has become more crucial than ever. Last November the independent media community teamed up to launch unrigged.ca, a new website that posts hourly content updates from a coalition of 25 local, regional and national media outlets from coast to coast to coast.
In this conversation we take you to The Broadbent Institute’s 2024 Progress Summit for our Thursday, April 11th panel featuring The Breach, Briarpatch, The Hoser, Press Progress and the Pivot solidarity journalism cooperative in conversation with Harbinger Showcase host Andre Goulet and Invisible Institutions' Megan Linton unpacking the past, present and future of the project.
The Harbinger Media Network includes 69 podcasts focusing on social, economic and environmental justice and featuring journalists, academics and activists on shows like Alberta Advantage, The Breach Show, Tech Won't Save Us, Press Progress Sources & more.
Harbinger Showcase is syndicated for community and campus radio at CIUT 89.5FM in Toronto, CKUT 90.3FM in Montreal, CKUW 95.9FM in Winnipeg and at Vancouver Co-op Radio.
