Christian (the maker of Apollo) is from Norway, and if the recordings was done in Norway it’s legal as far as I know.

Even a specific point in the law that specify that you can record audio without informing about it, as long as you are part of the conversation yourself.

§205 : https://lovdata.no/dokument/NL/lov/2005-05-20-28/KAPITTEL_2-...

EDIT: See now that he was in Canada when it was recorded, and they have the same kind of laws.

Isn't he a citizen and current resident of Canada?

Yep and it's completely legal here too as long as one participant knows and is fine with it being recorded (him in this instance).

It might be legal from Canada's perspective, but that doesn't necessarily mean legal action couldn't be taken in the US. Is there something specific to the law on recording phone calls that makes this not a problem?
