The series began in the summer of 2004 as a 10-episode experiment, after which it moved to its own regular time slot. WireTap has been described as "a weekly half-hour of conversation, storytelling and introspection, culled from equal parts real-world experience and the warp of Goldstein's imagination." Each show usually followed a particular investigative theme show titles include: "Life Lessons", "Reach for the Top", "Prized Possessions" and "Our Fathers". The show fell into what had traditionally been CBC Radio One's comedy slot on Sunday afternoons, replacing Madly Off in All Directions, which moved to a different time slot. The show was hosted by Jonathan Goldstein, former producer of This American Life, and featured stories that were told as if over the phone with Goldstein. An hour-long version of WireTap was distributed in the United States by Public Radio International. WireTap was a half-hour-long radio show which aired on CBC Radio One from 2004 until 2015.
