A lot has happened in that time, both inside Canada and around the world: Impeachment drama in the U.S., Brexit chaos in the U.K., police crackdowns on demonstrators in Hong Kong, not to mention photos of the Prime Minister in blackface here at home. It's a lot to keep track of. So this week, we're playing all Canadian political podcasts, with a little help from Elamin Abdelmahmoud, co-host of the CBC politics podcast Party Lines. Party Lines – "The polls suggest that a majority of Canadians (9 out of 10) see addressing climate change as 'important or urgent.' But do they behave and vote accordingly?" Rosie and Elamin discuss political posturing and the state of the planet. The Big Story – "...we can absolutely reckon with the fact that photos of the Prime Minister in racist makeup have been uncovered, but we also need to reckon with the larger issue of systemic racism in Canada and in Canadian politics in particular. Can the first reckoning lead to the second? Or will we spend the next month pointing fingers?" Attention Control with Kevin Newman – "Francesca Fionda, AC's investigative correspondent, picks up the phone and finds out what our parties really do know about us." Front Burner – "Globe and Mail health reporter Kelly Grant explains how the pharmacare debate is unfolding and what we can expect from the Liberals in the coming year." Sandy & Nora Talk Politics – "Sandy and Nora talk about Andrew Scheer's racist/homophobic candidate problem, each of the party's strategies to win and why Brampton is such an important place."

The result is also highly personal. As host Nikole Hannah-Jones also weaves her own experiences into show. Uncover: Sharmini – Twenty years ago, 15-year-old Sharmini Anandavel disappeared on her way to a job that police believe didn't exist. Four months later, her remains were found in a Toronto ravine. The Open Ears Project – "Guitarist Miloš Karadaglić talks about "Lágrima," which Spanish composer Francisco Tárrega supposedly wrote as a response to the homesickness he'd felt while visiting London, England — an emotion Miloš connected with deeply when he moved to the same city to pursue his own career." Bandtastic – Bandtastic is a sci-fi musical adventure about the most popular band in the universe. Assembled by a super intelligent spaceship, D.E.B.R.A. and not so intelligent robot sidekick R.A.N.D.Y., the intergalactic musicians travel to new worlds with one goal - to solve all of their problems through their incredible songs. The Happiness Lab – Winning the lottery can ruin your life, while contracting an incurable disease can be 'a gift'. Dr Laurie Santos hears about dreams come true and nightmares realised, and talks with Dr Dan Gilbert about why human happiness isn't defined by these major events in the way we all assume. Great Moments in Weed History – Ever wonder what President Barack Obama was like as a pot-smoking teenager in Hawaii? This podcast digs deep into his time with his high school weed crew, the Choom Gang. Slumtown – A battle is brewing in Edmonton's inner city. Neighbours are terrified. Fights, overdoses and crime spill out from problem houses, many owned by a small group of people connected by one notorious landlord. CBC's Elizabeth Hames investigates.

There are scientists and behaviorists who work to make apps more addictive using the powers of persuasion." And one of the most well-known people in this field is a behavioural scientist named B.J.

Featuring:Every Little Thing – Hooks, eye patches, peg legs: are these classic pirate tropes fact or fiction? Pirate historian Laura Sook Duncombe tells us about the golden age of pirates. 99% Invisible – A modern day (radio) pirate, Roy Bates is the self-proclaimed king of Sealand. But he developed a bigger plan for his platform than a radio station: Roy Bates wanted to start his own country. The Memory Palace – Eugenia Kelly was a 19-year-old socialite in 1915. Not only was she in love with the cabaret, she also loved Al Davis, an older, married man known as the "tango pirate". But her mother, Helen Kelly, did not approve of their relationship. When Eugenia refused to end their affair, Helen took her daughter to court and the case scandalized the nation. StartUp – Mike Hallatt wanted to give the people of Vancouver what they want: Trader Joe's snacks. So every week, he'd head across the border to snag some contraband to resell in his own shop: Pirate Joe's. Lost Notes – WBAD in New York was among the most beloved pirate radio stations in the 90s. They played unsanitized hip-hop, most of which wasn't being touched by mainstream radio. Our Fake History – Anne Bonny & Mary Read are two of the most famous & ruthless pirates of all time. But their story is so tangled up in myth, it's hard to separate fact from legend. Shiver me timbers! This week we've got stories about all sorts of pirates.

Gangster Capitalism – Andrew Jenks uncovers the origins and inner workings of this unprecedented scam, introducing you to the people involved, and exploring the larger debate around higher education that has been brought to the forefront. 2­. Adulting – Did you ever think being an adult would be this hard? Hosts Michelle Buteau and Jordan Carlos talk it out with some of the funniest, most creative adults around. Plus, they answer the questions that haunt us all, like 'What is an acceptable amount of money to spend on pillows?' and 'Is it okay that I eat cereal three times a day?' 3. The Stakes – Drug wars, recessions and record violence in the 1980s had US cities in crisis. Hip hop artists responded by shifting from party music to a new style called "conscious rap." Artists like Public Enemy and Digable Planets championed a sound that was political, community-minded and deeply pro-black. But about six years after it started, that first wave of socially-conscious hip hop seemed to be over. Who killed it? And what does the story of its rise and fall tell us about the relationship between culture, politics, and commerce? 4. Gravy – What do restaurant menus have to say about the identity of a restaurant or the point of view of the chef? It turns out, menus are more nuanced and revealing than we might suspect. 5. Truth Be Told – What if you're a person of colour, and you only have crushes on white folks? From romantic movies to commercials, we are inundated with messages about what sex and love should look like. Unfortunately, people of colour rarely get to see ourselves in those narratives... which can have some real consequences. 6. No One Receiving – In this radio play, Beth Kane and her Buddy Ryan are music snobs hanging out at a record store when an alien signal interrupts daily life. Earth's pop radio is terrible, and the aliens demand the Earthlings shut it down, or the blue planet will be blown to smithereens. Beth and Ryan become activists and organize an anti-pop protest to save the Earth. We're sharing the top must-listen podcasts for this month. Featuring: 1.

Featuring: 1/ How I Built This with Guy Raz - As a refugee growing up in Tel Aviv, Haim Saban remembers not having enough money to eat. As an adult, he hustled his way into the entertainment business, writing theme songs for classic cartoons like Inspector Gadget and Heathcliff. But producing the mega-hit Mighty Morphin Power Rangers put him on track to becoming a billionaire media titan. 2/ Dark Poutine - In 1845 an expedition led by experienced explorer, British Naval Rear Admiral, Sir John Franklin set off northward to conquer the fabled Northwest Passage. After a stop in Greenland the two ships, HMS Erebus and HMS Terror, with 129 crew aboard were never seen alive by European eyes again. Over the next 170 years, the fate of the ships and their crews would finally be revealed, thanks to the help of the Inuit people and their oral traditions. 3/ Steal The Stars - Dakota Prentiss runs security at the secretive Quill Marine compound, run by private defence conglomerate Sierra. Today she's breaking in a new security staffer, Matt Salem. Which means Matt has to pass a crucial test: how he reacts to the secret at the heart of Quill Marine. 4/ History Chicks - Mary Pickford was the world's first "movie star." Actress, writer, director, producer, studio head and entrepreneur Mary Pickford was born Gladys Louise Smith in Toronto, Canada. 5/ Judge John Hodgman - Have your pressing issues decided by Famous Minor Television Personality John Hodgman, Certified Judge. In this episode: Allison brings the case against her husband, Jeremy. They are trying to make room in their home to accommodate the baby they have on the way. But, they can't figure out a way to accomplish this while maintaining Jeremy's workroom. With Expert Witness Nick Offerman! 6/ Decoder Ring - Paper dolls were a ubiquitous part of children's lives for decades, and then mostly disappeared.

"There's a flavour that is McDonald's, and I feel that sometimes when I'm listening to podcasts, I hear this flavour that is 'podcasts.' I can't put my finger on what it is, but it always bothers me. "So for this episode, Ian picked podcasts that don't have that fast-food-podcast flavour, but rather each have their own voice.

This episode is all about her relationship with the Pacific Ocean, and an encounter with something wild. The Memory Palace: Despite the anti-Semitism he experienced during his time, Hank Greenberg was a beloved Jewish-American baseball player known as "The Hebrew Hammer" who never strayed from his identity. The Big One: If an earthquake were to strike, would you have a survival plan at the ready? Host Jacob Margolis and Producer Misha Euceph break down everything you need to know to survive.

Featuring 1) The Dropout: Convinced of her own destiny even as a young child, Elizabeth Holmes would drop out of Stanford in her late teens, intending to model herself after the great tech icons of our time. Her obsession with Steve Jobs - down to his signature black turtlenecks - would become particularly pronounced as she launched her company Theranos. 2) The Dream: Multi-level marketing companies often promise you part time work and high salaries. But according to The Dream, it seems very few participants successfully make a living. Katie worried her work as a daily news reporter would be challenging once she had a family. She thought that being a Mary Kay consultant would offer the flexibility she wanted. She shares her story. 3) Believed: How did Larry Nassar, a respected gymnastics doctor, get away with abusing hundreds of women and girls for two decades? Believed is an inside look at how a team of women won a conviction in one of the largest serial sexual abuse cases in U.S. history. 4) Studio 360: In the mid-1970s, Jon Armond was traumatized by something he saw on "Sesame Street." It was a cartoon about a little girl who encounters creatures formed by the cracks on her bedroom wall - including a horrifying, screaming face who called himself "The Crack Master." Decades later, Armond wasn't sure if the cartoon actually existed... until he discovered a subculture of obsessives who remembered the exact same thing. 5) Uncover: The Village: Host Justin Ling investigates Bruce McArthur and whether he's connected to nearly two dozen murders from Toronto's Gay Village. 6) Over My Dead Body: Dan and Wendi are two good-looking attorneys whose wedding was featured in the New York Times. But when this "perfect" couple falls apart, it leads to a bad breakup and a terrible divorce. Then, a murder case involving a menagerie of high-priced lawyers and unexpected co-conspirators.
