Midweek October 2, 2019
Bad news for birds, good news for bees, help and a kind word on the streets, and a skeptical eye on politics — all that and much more on this week’s edition of Midweek!
Midweek Season Opener September 25, 2019
First show of the season! This Midweek took us deep into dark matter out in space, around the corner to the flea market, and to a BeYou workshop to help young girls build confidence. Lots on art that moves, melts, washes away in the rain, or…isn’t real — plus therapy dogs, climate change and lots more!
Midweek’s “Pre-season” show — September 18, 2019
A new September, so a new Midweek team takes the helm! Our dry-run show was meant as practice, not for airing — but went so well we’re sharing it. Stories on workplace mental health and believing those who report abuse, through to the endangered Rocky Horror Picture Show — with malaria, memory and mass transit along the way. A great start!
Midweek April 10, 2019 — another season ends!
A terrific teams ends a terrific season with a terrific show: the Day of Pink, and pics of a Black Hole; refugees from North Korea, and the alt-right in Germany; tartan and bagpipes on Parliament Hill, healing West African rhythms in Ottawa, beer and wine in corner stores, and a helping hand for the homeless in the local libraries — all that and more!
Midweek April 3, 2019
A very full show ranging from global warming and carbon taxes to male contraceptive pills, with stops along the way to find out why online Avenger movie ticket sales crashed and what goes into mounting a museum exhibition on the evolution of food — plus much, much more!
Midweek March 27, 2019
Spring is in the air (as are other aromas), so we probed how climate change causes headaches for cities, how attempts to counter it cause headaches for truckers, how pot shops may alter neighbourhoods, why pot gives the munchies, why geeks love old-school delights, and why arm wrestling is not for the faint of heart. All that and more!
