It’s almost show time! Q’s new fulltime host Shadrach Kabango, better known as Shad, will take to the stage at Toronto’s Glenn Gould Studio on Monday, April 20. In a two-hour special recorded before a sold-out theatre, Shad will unveil several changes we’ve been working on behind the scenes. 

The show will be live streamed from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. ET at CBC.ca/q. It will air on CBC Radio One at 10 a.m. (10:30 NT). Those in Toronto who couldn’t get tickets to the show are invited to watch it at a live public screening in CBC’s atrium, starting at 8:45 a.m. 

Our exciting line-up of guests include: 

• Marc Maron will take the stage to discuss his smash hit podcast WTF, and how he gets comedians from Louis CK to Jerry Seinfeld to open up about their life and craft. 
• JUNO Award-winning Inuk throat singer Tanya Tagaq will perform from her Polaris Prize-winning record Animism. She will be joined by her celebrated producer/collaborator Jesse Zubotand Toronto’s Element Choir.
