ICYMI this week ...

A round-up of headlines from the Daily News podcast

This past week, The Daily News reached the top of Canada’s politics news chart. Somehow, this little podcast that is DIYed to the max, is riding at the top of Canadian politics podcasts. To say thanks for listening doesn’t seem like enough, but I’ll say it anyway. I didn’t grab a screenshot of the days we hit number one but if you remove the US podcasts from this list, we’re number one.

Here are the headlines that were featured in this past week’s episodes of the Daily News Podcast.
