The series is a replacement for The Weekly with Wendy Mesley and also is a successor to The Sunday Scrum, a Sunday political segment which aired on CBC News Network in the 2000s and 2010s. The Sunday Scrum was hosted by a variety of CBC journalists over the course of its run, including Nancy Wilson, Ben Chin, Carole MacNeil, Reshmi Nair, Asha Tomlinson and John Northcott, and continues to air as a segment within Rosemary Barton Live rather than a standalone program.
The series received two Canadian Screen Award nominations at the 10th Canadian Screen Awards in 2022, for Best Talk Program or Series and Best Host in a Talk or Entertainment News Series.[2]
