ScootTalks

All episodes

ScootTalks started as a Canadian sports interview show — putting athletes and supporters in the spotlight, from the Canadian Premier League to grassroots sport. That's still part of the DNA.

But the show has grown. Now it spans technology, development, gaming, and whatever else is worth a real conversation. Whether you found your way here through football or code, you're in the right place. Honest, unscripted, and always evolving.
