Raina Douris of World Cafe

On this episode of the podcast (and my last for 2022), I’m joined by a former colleague of mine who I’ve been admiring from afar. Raina Douris is an award-winning radio personality from Toronto, Ontario who packed up and moved down to Philly to host World Cafe after her time at the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation), where she was host and writer for Mornings on CBC Music. Raina and I first crossed paths at 102.1 The Edge (CFNY) where she trained me on how to use the board! I was SUPER anxious to be moonlighting shifts in Toronto during my time at FM96 in London and I was grateful for her kindness back then…and now. In this episode, we discuss the differences between the Canadian and American radio markets, private vs. public radio, great interviews and great lessons.
