Summary
The host of Canadaland announces he is stepping down from hosting duties to focus entirely on reporting the evolving Palestine issue, which he views as a major, misunderstood story. He explains that while he will remain as publisher and editor, new hosts will take over the weekly shows, including a mix of familiar names and new talent. To support this transition, the show hires Harrison Lohman as its new managing editor. The host acknowledges the financial risks of this move, hoping listeners value the journalism over his personal presence.
