Get Smarter About AI: THE GRAIN Podcast

Get Smarter About AI: THE GRAIN Podcast

Can we be normal about AI for a minute? Because most conversations about AI seem to skip right past the nuance. In this episode, we're adding THE GRAIN Podcast to our playlist. Hosted by Toronto-based creative strategist and director Ronit Novak, the show explores how AI is changing creativity, culture, and the human experience through thoughtful conversations with artists, technologists, journalists, educators, and more. Today, we're listening to Ronit's conversation with artist and designer Marian Bantjes, who started experimenting with AI when generative tools first became widely available. Together, they explore questions about creativity, authorship, originality, and what happens when AI becomes less of a tool and more of a creative collaborator. If you're curious about AI, art, or how technology is reshaping the way we create, this episode will give you plenty to think about. * Add ⁠THE GRAIN [https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-grain-ai-vs-creativity/id1771244643] to your playlist. * Watch this episode of THE GRAIN [https://thegrainai.substack.com/p/podcast-ai-vs-inspirationmarian-bantjes] in full video. * Subscribe to THE GRAIN [https://thegrainai.substack.com/] on Substack. * Listen to more The Walrus Podcasts [https://thewalrus.ca/podcasts/]. * Read The Walrus' Lead Podcasting Acquisition ⁠⁠⁠press release⁠⁠⁠ [https://thewalrus.ca/the-walrus-acquires-lead-podcasting/] * Want to submit your podcast to be featured on this show?

The Women of Post-Production: Tequity Talk

Post production is one of those worlds that most people never think about, and the people working in it wouldn't have it any other way. Today, we're sharing an episode from the brand new season of Tequity Talk, the podcast we produce here at The Walrus Lab for GALSNGEAR. This episode pulls back the curtain on what it actually takes to shepherd a film or series from raw footage to finished product, and what that process looks like in 2026. Host Amy Delouise talks with freelance post-producer Angela Victor and editor/post-workflow consultant Danielle Nell about AI in the edit suite, the realities of remote workflows, what's happening in the South African market, and whether the assistant editor role has a future. But what ties it all together is something harder to teach: the mindset it takes to keep going in an industry that is always, always changing. * Add ⁠Tequity Talk [https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/tequity-talk/id1839467180] to your playlist. * Listen to more The Walrus Podcasts [https://thewalrus.ca/podcasts/]. * Read The Walrus' Lead Podcasting Acquisition ⁠⁠⁠press release⁠⁠⁠ [https://thewalrus.ca/the-walrus-acquires-lead-podcasting/] * Want to submit your podcast to be featured on this show?

Oui, You Should Be Listening: Fréquences et images

This week on Add This To Your Playlist, we're doing something a little different. We're sharing a French episode. Specifically, a balado—because if you're going to discover the Québécois podcasting scene, you may as well learn the word for it. French Canadian audiences are tuning in more than ever these days, and the production coming out of that world is seriously worth your attention. Case in point: Fréquences et images, produced by our friends at Phonique, a podcast agency just outside Montreal creating branded content that has the same production quality and storytelling focus as the work we do here at the Walrus. Produced in collaboration with the OTIMROEPMQ [https://otimroepmq.ca/]—the organization that represents the people who run medical imaging and radiation tests in Québec—this episode demystifies radioactivity. Where we actually encounter it, what it means in a medical context, and why it's nowhere near as scary as pop culture has made it out to be. If you want a window into the French Canadian podcast world, if you're curious about a medical experience your body has probably already had, or if you're looking for a low-stakes way to dust off your French listening skills, you need to add this podcast to your playlist! * Add ⁠Frequences et images [https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/fr%C3%A9quences-et-images/id1849992398] to your playlist. * Learn more about our friends, Phonique [https://phonique.ca/] * Listen to more The Walrus Podcasts [https://thewalrus.ca/podcasts/]. * Read The Walrus' Lead Podcasting Acquisition ⁠⁠⁠press release⁠⁠⁠ [https://thewalrus.ca/the-walrus-acquires-lead-podcasting/] * Want to submit your podcast to be featured on this show?

Where Complaining Becomes Comedy: The Worst Podcast

This week on Add This To Your Playlist, we’re highlighting an episode of The Worst Podcast from The Sonar Network and Canadaland, hosted by filmmaker Alan Zweig and podcast producer Kattie Laur (creator of the Canadian podcast newsletter Pod The North). Each episode digs into the many small irritations of life with a notable guest. We're fangirling because in the episode we’re sharing today, that guest is Canadian comedy legend Colin Mochrie of Whose Line Is It Anyway? fame. The conversation veers from the absurd to the oddly relatable, touching on everything from the strange realities of being recognized in public to the worst moments Colin and his improv castmates have shared over the years. If you're a self-proclaimed curmudgeon, or if you just enjoy sharp, funny conversations that wander into unexpected territory—and if you’re looking for another standout show in the Canadian podcast scene—this is one to add to your playlist. * Add ⁠ [https://open.spotify.com/show/3bK1EkAKZcxW2OAosfk9hv?si=d7a0edd71de94900]The Worst Podcast [https://thesonarnetwork.com/the-worst-podcast/] to your playlist. * Read The Walrus' Lead Podcasting Acquisition ⁠⁠⁠press release⁠⁠⁠ [https://thewalrus.ca/the-walrus-acquires-lead-podcasting/] * Want to submit your podcast to be featured on this show?

Building a Platform With Purpose: Let’s Talk Thought Leadership

This week on Add This To Your Playlist, we’re sharing the premiere episode of Let’s Talk Thought Leadership, hosted by Amanda Cupido, founder of Lead Podcasting and Strategic Podcast Executive at The Walrus. In this new show, Amanda learns how some of today's most brilliant thinkers turn their expertise into influence—not as a buzzword, but as a practice. You'll hear the stories behind how guests's ideas are shaped, tested, and shared in ways that built their careers in ways they never saw coming . In the episode we're sharing today, Amanda speaks with Dr. Ivan Joseph about the long arc of his career after a TEDx talk on self-confidence surpassed 30 million views. The focus isn’t the viral moment — it’s what followed: building a brand without loving self-promotion, translating research into accessible ideas, and knowing when a prestigious role no longer fits. If you’re thinking about how your own expertise travels, and what it takes to build a sustainable platform around it, definitely add Let’s Talk Thought Leadership to your playlist! * Add ⁠Let's Talk Thought Leadership [https://open.spotify.com/show/3bK1EkAKZcxW2OAosfk9hv?si=d7a0edd71de94900] to your playlist. * Read The Walrus' Lead Podcasting Acquisition ⁠⁠⁠press release⁠⁠⁠ [https://thewalrus.ca/the-walrus-acquires-lead-podcasting/] * Want to submit your podcast to be featured on this show?
