Midweek November 6, 2019: Remembrance Day Special

Midweek marks Remembrance Day with stories about conflict, cruelty, loss, recovery, resettlement and remembrance of what all that can teach us. We hear how painting masks can help heal unseen wounds, how music and poems keep memory alive, and how local children came out on a blustery day to make sure those below military gravestones were not left alone. All that and much more.

Midweek October 30, 2019

A mix of light and heavy hearts this week: Progress towards equality in the latest election, creative flashes at a film festival, the high of winter running, and some goofy Halloween celebrations — but also a special report on how addictions trap so many in the cycle of homelessness, a hard reality as winter sets in and being on the streets isn’t a choice or a high at all. This, and lots more.
