Adrian Harewood knows In this brave new world of misinformation, context is everything.
In Bed with the Elephant is Canada’s new favourite interview show. Each episode, host Adrian Harewood connects with newsmakers, policy wonks, authors, and cultural figures who can speak to the moment, and help us see the big picture.
Now more than ever, Canada needs strong journalism that articulates a distinct view of Canadian identity. In Bed with the Elephant, named after the iconic Pierre Trudeau quote about U.S.-Canada relations, proudly reflects a uniquely Canadian view of the world.
A 20 year veteran CBC host, Harewood is one of the country’s most accomplished interviewers. Through meticulous preparation, finely honed questions and a naturally disarming style he gets more out of his guests than most interviewers can — and never shies away from asking the tough questions.
But don’t take our word for it. Press play on an episode. Any episode. You won’t be able to listen to just one. Whether you’re on your way to work, making dinner at home or hitting the gym, this is the interview you want in your ears.

David Suzuki turns 90.

His most recent book is a memoir called Lessons From a Lifetime: Ninety Years of Inspiration and Activism.
Looking back, Suzuki says he’s ultimately “failed” to communicate the urgency of the ecological crisis.
“We always have to choose between the economy and the environment, and the economy wins every time.”
