INSIDE THE VILLAGE: How 'The Trillium' came into bloom

Village Media has expanded to Queen’s Park, where our experienced team will cover every angle of provincial politics. Here's how the new site came together — at warp speed

Welcome back to Inside the Village, a one-of-a-kind podcast where all news is local — and no topic is off-limits.

On this week’s episode: Introducing The Trillium, a new Village Media website devoted to in-depth, insider coverage of provincial politics at the Ontario Legislature.

Led by Editor-in-Chief Jessica Smith Cross, The Trillium boasts a talented roster of experienced Queen’s Park journalists, including Deputy Editor Charlie Pinkerton and reporters Aidan Chamandy, Sneh Duggal and Jack Hauen.

In typical Village style, this exciting new venture came together at warp speed. Joining the podcast from Queen's Park, Smith Cross and Pinkerton take us through the full story.

It’s a must-listen for anyone who cares about independent, fact-based journalism.

Hosted by Scott Sexsmith and Michael Friscolanti, the Editor-in-Chief of Village Media, Inside the Village is a news and current affairs podcast that provides a weekly window into some of the best local journalism from across our chain of Ontario newsrooms. Produced by Derek Turner, the program also explores bigger-picture issues that impact people across the province.

Every episode is available on this news site /insidethevillage. If you prefer the audio version, it is available wherever you find your favourite podcasts.
