Description

Breaking news - a new episode of the What Connects Us podcast is now live and we're chatting with someone who is no stranger to being on the air.

Alex Brown is a morning show host on CTV Morning Live in Saskatoon and is known for her incredible likeability and 100% authenticity both on and off the air. Alex talks about her journey into broadcasting and how she navigates the pressure cooker of live television while balancing the unorthodox lifestyle that comes with being a morning live host. She also chats about how she handles the constant stream of criticism, especially negative comments about her appearance, and why representation on the air is so important.
