When it began, DNTO was a four-hour magazine-style program about pop culture, aimed at a slightly older audience than Brand X had targeted. In September 2002, Young was replaced by Sook-Yin Lee as host. In September 2007, Young, Elizabeth Bowie, Tom Howell, and Dan Misener launched Spark on CBC Radio One. The show, which Young hosts, focuses on "the way technology affects our lives, and the world around us". The show utilizes a unique format, in which users can contribute to future shows by posting ideas, interview questions for upcoming guests, and stories on Spark's blog. Young also hosts a podcast called The Sniffer with Cathi Bond. The podcast focuses on technology and trends and airs five-minute segments two or three times a week. In 2012, Young wrote a book called The Virtual Self. She has spoken about her experiences in various media at events such as the Podcasters Across Borders and Northern Voice conferences, and has contributed to the Toronto Star. (en)
