Named one of Audible's Best Canadian Podcasts of 2025. 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).

Unreserved

Who are the cookie people in your life? They bring light and calm in moments of chaos and darkness, and their gifts – whether they’re delicious treats, kind words, or time – hold lessons for us all. Rosanna digs into the season of giving and hears that some of the best gifts are those that come with lessons and stories. These gifts connect us to the past and give us hope for the year to come.

Lessons in Giving

Beaver mimicry is helping scientists on Blackfoot territory keep water on the land and put an end to decades of drought. It’s one of many ways Indigenous people look to our beaver kin for lessons on restoring balance to ecosystems. Rosanna hears how traditional knowledge and stories about beaver make us more nurturing, generous and wise.

Sacred Seven: Beaver is nurturing, giving, wise

Forget the birthday candles, some celebrations call for dynamite! Salmon are returning to river systems all along the Pacific coast where they are the lifeblood of communities. Along the Klamath River, one salmon warrior fulfilled a lifelong dream to blow up one of the dams that had blocked salmon for decades. Rosanna hears how efforts around destruction and restoration are bringing the salmon home.

Welcoming Home the Salmon

Siibii means river in Cree – a body of water with no fixed form. That description resonates with the pop singer/songwriter now known as Siibiii. Rosanna sits down for an intimate conversation to hear how Siibii’s questions around gender, sexuality and neurodiversity have helped them to heal and come into themself.

From Kookums on campus to artists with new names, Rosanna explores what it means to know your story, be grounded in yourself and share all the love (even if it takes a little rage to get you there).

Unapologetically Indigenous

The dress will never be worn by anyone but the names that adorn it. Hundreds of names of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls line a haute couture gown at the Winnipeg Art Gallery. That’s where Rosanna captured the stories of many designers at a special event.

An old cigar box full of memories helps Maidy Keir learn about her uncle Welby who died in World War II. Now some of these treasures are on display in the Netherlands in an exhibit honouring the Indigenous soldiers who helped liberate the country eighty years ago. Rosanna hears stories that honour our veterans and those who continue to serve today.

Legendary Anishinaabe artist Norval Morrisseau is at the centre of what might be the biggest case of art fraud in the world. On the new podcast Forged, Siksika artist Adrian Stimson dives into the dark and layered story behind it. Rosanna gets the real scoop on what he learned about the fakes. Plus, Rosanna speaks with two filmmakers who are shifting the lens in their new adaptation to bring an authentic Inuit perspective to a strange piece of Canadian history.

A podcast and a film share twisted truths

Rock star Kevin Hearn of the Barenaked Ladies is doing rock star things — like buying paintings. And what better painting for an iconic Canadian rocker to buy than one by Norval Morrisseau, one of the most iconic Indigenous artists in Canada? But when Kevin’s Morrisseau painting is featured in an exhibit, it gets taken down because the head curator says it’s “questionable.” Kevin tries to get some answers but every answer leads to more questions. Host Adrian Stimson traces Kevin’s dogged quest to find out the truth about his painting — and learns how this one painting is the key to cracking a whole underworld open. Forged is a six-part series, from CBC in Canada and ABC Australia, host Adrian Stimson, an artist from the Siksika Nation, travels from Thunder Bay to the Northern Territory of Australia, to reveal what's believed to be the largest art crime fraud in the world.

In Mi’kmaq Spirit Talker Shawn Leonard’s experience, ghosts and spirits aren’t actually all that scary. As a psychic medium he likes to show people how their loved ones who have passed still walk with them. On this spooky season edition of Unreserved, Rosanna speaks to Shawn and other lovers of the supernatural – from ghost hunters to scary story-tellers – about the lessons we learn from our connections to the spirit world.

The Haunting of Unreserved

Stephanie Sinclair thought it was a parenting win when she explained residential schools to her kindergartener. When it didn't go quite as planned, she looked to the greater community to explore ways of sharing culture and important family histories with future generations. Rosanna speaks with Stephanie and her sister Sara Sinclair as well as award-winning writer, katherena vermette, about what it takes to be a good ancestor.
