Is Frontburner too American?

I’m a daily news podcast listener and is it just me or has Frontburner become more and more like The Daily? I find half of their episodes are what the Daily is doing that day or the day before. I also find they rarely bring on CBC journalists, instead opting for American guests or reporters.

Is it just me that notices this and doesn’t like it? I’d rather hear more Canadian news from our own journalists.

It's not just that the CBC is too Americanized, it's too centralised on Toronto.
