18 October 2024 at 13:53

Jeremy Hobson is the host of The Middle, a National Public Radio call-in show about the geographic middle of our country and how it’s overlooked, but it also reaches into the realm of politics and culture and philosophy to find places where Americans can connect.

WDET hosting live, international call-in special with CBC Radio, NPR this Sunday

17 October 2024 at 10:00

WDET will pre-empt its regular programming from 4-6 p.m. this Sunday, Oct. 20, to host a special collaboration between Canada’s national broadcaster, CBC Radio, and American National Public Radio to bring a special international call-in version of CBC’s Cross Country Checkup and NPR’s The Middle. 

The broadcast, titled America Votes: A Cross-Border Conversation, will air across Canada and the U.S., bringing international focus to the city of Detroit. The collaborative show will focus on the impending national election’s impact on the U.S. and Canada’s relationship; and WDET’s distinction as a cross-border broadcaster at North America’s largest trade corridor sets us up as the appropriate station to host this international conversation.

Jeremy Hobson, host of The Middle, and Ian Hanomansing, co-host of CBC’s The National and host of Cross-Country Check-Upwill both be present at WDET for the live interactive broadcast.
