The 180 is a Canadian radio talk show, which airs weekly on CBC Radio One. Hosted by Jim Brown from the network's studio in Calgary, Alberta,[1] the show highlights issues in the news by interviewing guests with provocative or unusual perspectives that differ from conventional wisdom, in the hopes of sparking debate on topics of public interest.

Since its creation, the show has aired Sunday evenings at 8 p.m., and is repeated during the week in an afternoon time slot. In May 2014, the network announced that the show will move to a Sunday morning slot in September 2014, concurrent with a reduction of The Sunday Edition's running time from three hours to two.[1]
