He was on last Monday and hasn't been seen or heard from since, Might have something to do with this?

He's still listed under the title on the CBC Gem website, for whatever that's worth.

His name is gone from the opening graphics. I realize his picture is still on the website.

The entire episode is still on the website. And his name isn't in *any* opening graphics of the episodes available - but he sure is - as the host, the first person you see.

This is conspiracy theory bullshit - stop it.

He hasn't been on in eight days and his name has been removed from the opening and he hasn't been mentioned. Nothing conspiratorial about it.

Yes,  the last few days are there and his name has been removed and he has not been mentioned. This shouldn't be that difficult to follow.

You literally said yesterday's show was taken down.

I actually never drew that conclusion that you did. When cash wrote:

I just interpreted that as the "with David Cochrane" branding/tagline is no longer used. Those three words are gone - not the show itself or any video of the episode.

That's a wild interpretation. They took the branding off that episode but no other elements that mention him? Why just that? This is so stupid.

Well, I think you're the one with the different interpretation to what cash meant and I got. Admittedly it grammatically could've been written better in cash's post.

It's actually not unusual to have a show's webpage and graphic elements lag behind actual broadcast changes, since what goes out on the broadcast remains the priority and I'd expect that to reflect current decisions and everything else to lag behind. Wrapper content for online presence is down the list of priorities. Happens all the time with, say, radio station websites. Limited staff to change that, on-air graphics being done by a different team than web graphics, etc.

Are you suggesting Cochrane is maybe just on holidays?
