Commotion (radio show) explained

Commotion is a Canadian radio program, which debuted January 30, 2023 on CBC Radio One. Hosted by Elamin Abdelmahmoud, the program is a half-hour daily magazine show on pop culture, featuring conversations with guests on current and trending topics in entertainment.[1]

The program took over some of the mandate of the network's existing program Q, which concurrently transitioned into a program more strongly focused on Tom Power's longform interviews.[2] It also replaced Abdelmahmoud's existing weekly program Pop Chat.

The program airs at 11:05 a.m. local time (11:35 NT) weekdays, following Q.[2]
