    • Performance Politcis (Summer rerun)
      Aug 15 2023

      To wrap up the first season of Hot Politics, host David McKie's guest is no other than Canada's National Observer's columnist and sister podcast Maxed Out's host, Max Fawcett.


      Recent days have witnessed politicians recognizing partisanship. Former leader of the Conservative Party Erin O'Toole and former Conservative prime minister Brian Mulroney both delivered speeches about divisiveness and nastiness, particularly on social media.


      Max joins David to discuss how the divide is not just hurting the public perception of politicians but democracy itself.

The land, its skies, and the bodies of water around it have been protected for thousands of years by local Haida guardians. Protecting Haida Gwaii is a story about a First Nation that continues the fight for its rights, despite having inhabited the territory for thousands of years.

    • Seabed mining: The next frontier or the next disaster? (Summer rerun)
      Aug 1 2023
      Harvesting critical minerals from the ocean bottom — five kilometers below the surface — is the newest frontier. The minerals found in rocks on the ocean floor are the lifeblood of solar, wind and electric batteries. But what do we know about the ocean bottom? Does anything live there? David McKie explores the issues around seabed mining. How important is it to the efforts to stop using fossil fuels? Can it be done without damaging the seabed? And with companies ready to start harvesting, do we know enough about the risks to the underwater ecosystem?
