Postal Code Chronicles is a Canadian podcast series dedicated exploring the stories of prominent people and its significance with our communities. We noticed that our media is saturated with American stories and wanted to provide a platform to see what success can look like in a Canadian context. We interview artists, academics, entrepreneurs, community leaders and anyone with a story to tell. Our team is mainly based in Toronto and Edmonton.
