Synopsis

Hosted by veteran comedians Peter Oldring and Pat Kelly, This is That uses the same serious audio techniques for comedy as others do for journalism: phone interviews, narrative documentary, archival news clips, witnesses on location, found footage, and so on. But on this podcast, everything is fabricated: this is a completely fake in-depth look at the issues, culture and personalities shaping our world today.

This Is That ran for 9 seasons on CBC Radio, published a national bestseller This Is That: Travel Guide to Canada, garnered 60 million views with their YouTube series This Is That Video, and played to packed theaters across Canada with This Is That Live. They are now breathing new life into the series by unearthing stories for a podcast audience that haven't been available in over 5 years.
