Episode Notes

In Hour 1, Former diplomat Gar Pardy, says "catastrophic", "horrific", and "intolerable" are not words usually used to describe the policies and actions of a state with which there are close relations. But they are increasingly used in describing the policy and actions of Israel in its policies affecting Palestinians. Dr. Neil Hammerschlag, founder of Atlantic Shark Expeditions,  says great white sharks are often misunderstood, especially as an increasing number of them begin to appear in the waters off Atlantic Canada. Dr Abraham Nunes, a psychiatrist at the QEII's mood disorders clinic and who leads the ketamine therapy program, discusses how the drug ketamine is safe at low doses in a medically controlled environment. Thomas Arnason McNeil, Climate Policy Coordinator at the Ecology Action Centre, Sustainable Transportation, discusses Nova Scotia's ambitious plan to dramatically expand its fledgling offshore wind energy industry. In Hour 2, it's the Open Hour, and Todd takes your calls! In Hour 3, Dr. Rob Thacker is back for The Science Files!
