Midweek January 30, 2019 — A new season!
A brand new team launched a fresh season of Midweek on Jan. 30 amid an exceptional cold spell with a show that went from marching down frigid streets to blowing molten glass, right from the furnace.
A brand new team launched a fresh season of Midweek on Jan. 30 amid an exceptional cold spell with a show that went from marching down frigid streets to blowing molten glass, right from the furnace.
The team that has brought you Midweek all this fall closed out their turn on-air in style: Their final edition of the show was a rich mix of fun, insights, updates…and hard truths about the world around us that we need to look straight in the eye.
From puppy yoga through winter cycling to E. coli, tornado damage, diabetes and dementia — this edition of Midweek covered it all. Plus dirty dancing, dinosaur eggs, what forest fires tell us about climate change, and much more.
Radio ancestors, bark blight, storytelling carpets, SAD advice, manga, Re4med furniture, and cool dance moves … but also neighbours shaken by a gun killing, and tears over validation long overdue and far too late for far too many. Yup, sure sounds like a Midweek,
This edition of Midweek, hosted by Molly Pendergast and Katie Jacobs, was devoted entirely to themes linked to Remembrance Day: service, sacrifice, persecution, resistance, wounds, healing and never forgetting.
Midweek once again runs the gamut from soup to…you’ll see! We hear about serving soup to micro-finance causes, a push for an Indigenous elementary school in Ottawa, how airlines are helping save the whales, and how one young man confronts his anxieties by doing public readings…naked. Plus Halloween: zombies, Rocky Horrors, and treat tricks for diabetics. Plus much more!
