Storylines

Every week a journalist follows one story, meets the people at its centre, and makes it make sense. This is your news told narratively.

One story, well told, every week

The words CBC Storylines over a grey background and a series of coloured lines.
(Ben Shannon/CBC)

A weekly documentary show for people who love narrative podcasts. Stories you can't stop thinking about. That you'll tell your friends about. And that will help you understand what's going on in Canada, and why. 

Every week a journalist follows one story, meets the people at its centre, and makes it make sense. Sometimes it's about people living out the headlines in real life. Sometimes it's about someone you've never heard of, living though something you had no idea was happening. Either way, you'll go somewhere, meet someone, get the context, and learn something new. (Plus it sounds really good. Mixed like a movie.)  

This is your news told narratively, from the award-winning team at the CBC Audio Doc Unit
