John discusses Trump calling off trade talks with Canada after an ad aired in Ontario featuring Ronald Reagan's critical thoughts on tariff policy. Canadian PM Mark Carney said in response he'd have an easy time finding trade partners in Asia instead. And he talks about the Pentagon announcing it had killed 6 people in yet another airstrike on a fishing vessel in the Caribbean, adding that an aircraft carrier is being sent to the region which is a major escalation of an already egregious American military buildup. Then, he interviews social gerontologist Jeanette Leardi on her latest book "Aging Sideways: Changing Our Perspectives on Getting Older". Next, John speaks with former EPA Scientist Dr. Tracy Woodruff on her declaration that the U.S. is “fast-tracking chemicals that cause cancer, infertility, and brain damage”.
