For people who work in the business of political satire and news comedy, there's no shortage of rich source material these days. But misinformation, disinformation and leaders who can seem stranger than fiction are complicating the craft. Piya Chattopadhyay speaks with two veterans of the scene – The Beaverton's Luke Gordon Field and a founding member of The Onion, Christine Wenc – about the challenges of skewering the news today, and how satire can help people make sense of the absurdity of real life.

Host Piya Chattopadhyay sets up the final week of the federal election campaign with political journalists Rob Russo, Emilie Nicolas and Ryan Jespersen, The Beaverton's Luke Gordon Field and The Onion's Christine Wenc talk about the craft of satire in an age of misinformation, linguist Michael Erard reflects on what our first and last words say about us, and The Sunday Magazine's Howard Goldenthal looks at the legacy of the Cambodian genocide.Discover more at cbc.ca/sunday

On the Saturday May 10, 2025 ediiton of The Richard Crouse Show we'll meet a living legend on the Canadian Comedy scene. The Winnipeg born, Chicago bred Kenny Robinson is often called the Godfather of Canadian comedy. His irreverent, socially conscience, intelligent, opinionated and profane style of comedy has made him a fixture and favourite with comedy clubs, festivals, radio, and television audiences for 3 decades. This year he celebrates 30 years of his live show Kenny Robinson's The Nubian Show, a monthly night of live comedy that has been the launching pad for many of Canada's Whose Who of Comedy and featured appearances by heavy weight comics like Dave Chappell, Kevin Hart, Russell Peters. A new documentary, “People Of Comedy: Celebrating 30 Years Of The Nubian Show,” now streaming on Crave, traces The Nubian Show's early beginnings at Toronto's Yuk Yuk's to its evolution into a powerful and unfiltered platform that has launched many careers, all under Kenny Robinson's watchful eye. Then we'll meet Luke Gordon Field, editor-in-chief of the Beaverton website, Canada's most trusted, least accurate news source, and co-executive producer of the critically acclaimed Beaverton television series. He has run The Beaverton since 2012, and is now the host of The Beaverton Weekly Report podcast, available wherever you find fine podcasts. Their press release says, “Every Wednesday Luke Gordon Field will assemble an all-star panel of comedians to talk, mock and riff their way through the news of the week. Their knowledge of the news will then be put to the test in a very important quiz where the stakes couldn't be lower. It's just like watching CNN, only funnier and with fewer erectile dysfunction ads.“
