About the show
The Really Big Show is an independent Canadian daily news and analysis program. We move past talking points to examine the real-world impact of decisions affecting Canada, British Columbia, and the wider region, delivering the clear-eyed commentary you will not find in mainstream soundbites.
Live every weekday at 9:00 a.m. Pacific / 12:00 p.m. Eastern. Distributed on YouTube (@thereallybigshow), X, major podcast platforms, and NowMedia platforms. The show features unscripted, in-depth conversations with policymakers, business leaders, and subject matter experts, asking clear questions and letting guests speak for themselves.
