About this listen

A fearless space for Indigenous voices. Join Rosanna Deerchild every Friday for vibrant conversations with our cousins, aunties, elders, and heroes. Rosanna guides us on the path to better understanding our shared story. Together, we learn and unlearn, laugh and become gentler in all our relations.


Our award-winning show is rooted in radio, where we’ve spent the last decade becoming a trusted space for Indigenous-led conversations.


We are based in what is now known as Canada. Rosanna hails from O-Pipon-Na-Piwan Cree Nation at South Indian Lake in northern Manitoba, and now lives and works in Winnipeg (Treaty 1).

Guest host, Don Amero, speaks with Emily Wurramara, Al Cardinal and Jasmine Collette at the Winnipeg Folk Festival about what it takes to be brave, speak truth and re-write the occasional rule.

    A conversation with the creators of North of North
    Jul 18 2025

    Canada’s Arctic was the only place the series North of North could be shot – because there’s no other way to capture the humour, culture and modernity of the people there. The show gives us a glimpse of Inuit Nunangat through the fictional town of Ice Cove. Rosanna speaks with Stacy Aglok MacDonald, Alethea Arnaquq-Bariland and Anna Lambe about how they’re putting community at the centre of their storytelling.
