For years, Liz worked for the Globe and Mail, where she was a reporter, an editor, and a columnist. Her latest book, What She Said: Conversations About Equality, has just been released, and we are really thrilled to have her on the podcast to tell us all about it.

The first episode of BOOKSPO begins with a splash as I'm joined by the authors of brand new mystery novel BURY THE LEAD, co-written by bestsellers Kate Hilton and Elizabeth Renzetti, whose “bookspo” was the smash-hit novel THURSDAY MURDER CLUB, by Richard Osman. In our conversation, Kate and Liz tell their origin stories as mystery readers, discuss what inspired them about Osman's book, outline just what makes for a great mystery series, why feminism is a necessary part of their world-building, and share their strategy about how to keep that series from getting too preposterous (ie keeping dead vicars to a minimum!).

With the attention of the world on Port Ellis, this story could be Cat's chance to restore her reputation. But the police think she's a suspect, and the murderer wants to kill the story—and her too.

With Molly Hayes, national reporter with The Globe and Mail. Women and equity-seeking journalists investigate under-told stories. We need them to give voice to gender justice matters that otherwise go unheard.

It's named after iconic journalist and author, Michele Landsberg. Journalist and activist Gloria Steinem said, “Those who make a revolution and those who write about it are usually two different people. Michele Landsberg is one of the few on earth who is trusted and effective at both.” Past winners of The Landsberg Award include such journalists as Connie Walker, Robyn Doolittle, Christina Frangou, and more. Today we're joined by Molly Hayes, who won the 2023 Landsberg Award alongside Tavia Grant and Elizabeth Renzetti for their series on intimate partner violence and femicide in Canada.

Equity-seeking journalists including women and racialized reporters investigate some of the most important and hidden stories. Whether writing articles for newspapers or magazines, editing, posting on social media or digital media, or blogging, we need them to give voice to issues otherwise unheard. This makes the harassment and abuse they experience at disproportionate levels particularly vexing. It's harmful to them as people and media workers, and it runs counter to the goal of making things better and fairer in Canada. We can't achieve that goal without a diverse news media landscape and truth in reporting. Every year, the Canadian Women's Foundation presents The Landsberg Award in partnership with The Canadian Journalism Foundation to acknowledge and inspire feminist journalism It's named after iconic journalist and author, Michele Landsberg.

Robyn Doolittle is member of The Globe and Mail's investigative team and a two-time winner of Canada's Michener Award. She has probed suspicious business contracts, political corruption, and Canada's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Her “Unfounded” investigation, which explored the ways that Canadian police services handle sexual assault cases, prompted a national overhaul of policy, training and practices around sexual violence. Her latest book, “Had It Coming – What's Fair In The Age of #MeToo?” was shortlisted for the RBC Taylor Prize for non-fiction. Doolittle was named Journalist of the Year in 2017. Christina Frangou is a journalist, writer, and editor based in Calgary, Alberta. Her reporting has garnered multiple awards and nominations. She specializes in writing about health, medicine, and social issues: in 20+ years as a journalist, she's written about addiction, bereavement, refugee health, firearm violence, safe consumption sites, and medical assistance in dying.

Every six days, a woman in Canada is killed by an intimate partner, and yet the topic of intimate partner violence (IPV) – more commonly referred to as domestic abuse – is rarely talked about. Because of this, many of the red flags that precede physical violence are often missed. These warning signs can include a pattern of controlling behaviour, which is called coercive control.Elizabeth Renzetti is a columnist for The Globe who has been reporting on and off on violence against women for over 30 years. She tells us about the stigma surrounding IPV, how to recognize coercive control and the debate surrounding the criminalization of it.Warning: This episode discusses domestic violence and may be upsetting to some listeners.If you think you, or someone you know, may be suffering from intimate partner violence, you can find support through the following resources:Crisis lines for each province and territoryAssaulted Women's Helpline: Toll-free: 1-866-863-0511Canadian Women's FoundationShelter SafeSOS in Quebec: 1-800-363-9010 or text 1-438-601-1211

Gender-based violence often doesn't get reported to authorities, and the signs that someone might need help are easily missed by friends, family and even the person experiencing the abuse.

She explains how the hand signal came to be, why it matters that it went viral on Tik Tok and what we need to know about the more subtle signs of abuse that often go overlooked.
