What's it like to live in Antarctica around Adélie penguins
28/05/2026 | 27 min
Adélie penguins are the smallest and most widespread penguin species in the Antarctic, and one place you find them is Cape Royds. Conservation biologist Louise K. Blight is one of very few people who's spent time in the remote field camp in Cape Royds, living alongside those penguins, and doing field research. We’ll talk to the author of “Where the Earth Meets the Sky: A Story of Penguins, People, and Place in Antarctica," about the magic and mystery of Antarctica, the power of solitude, and what it’s like to be courted by an emperor penguin?
B.C politicos on the rocky road ahead for Premier Eby

Conservatives are picking up steam as they get set to elect a new leader this weekend. Katie DeRosa, CBC’s provincial affairs reporter in B.C., and Rob Shaw, political correspondent for CHEK News in Victoria, take a close look at the complex political picture in the province.

27/05/2026 | 12 min
Artist and coder Kyle McDonald has created an apocalypse early warning system. It tracks billionaires' jets to see if they are fleeing to their private doomsday bunkers. If the end really is upon us, it won't save you. (The super rich will probably be toast too.) But he hopes the social commentary it provides might make you feel less helpless and nudge you to do something about the mess he says we're in.
