For a lot of creators, output slows down over the summer months. But not CBC Podcasts! Today we share some of their newest releases. The Kill List is a six-part series hosted by Mary Lynk that centres around the death of human rights activist Karima Baloch. When Baloch was found drowned off the shores of Toronto, an investigation into her mysterious death led all the way back to Pakistan, the country she had recently fled. Leah speaks with The Kill List's host Mary Lynk to find out why she was so determined to share this story despite the many risks. Next, Kuper Island is a new eight-part series that returns to one of Canada's most notorious residential schools. Hosted by Duncan McCue, the series tells the stories of four students: three who survived and one who didn't. Plus, we share a clip from Someone Knows Something's timely new series The Abortion Wars, and to add a bit of levity to the mix we turn to Tai Asks Why to explain why our memories are so imperfect. Featuring: The Kill List | Kuper Island | Someone Knows Something | Tai Asks Why For links and more info on all these shows, head to http://cbc.ca/podcastplaylist.

Since Lindsay and Marshall are on a break for the summer, we thought we'd share with you one of our favorite other podcasts! We present to you: Tai Asks Why. Fifteen-year-old Tai Poole won't rest until he's uncovered the mysteries of the universe, one probing question at a time. In Season 4 of his Webby-winning podcast, Tai talks to everyone from NASA scientists to stand-up comedians to his equally curious little brother. If you've ever wondered what we can do when we're anxious or if we're alone in the universe, Tai has you covered.

It's Earth Day, and fifteen-year-old Tai Poole, host of the CBC podcast, Tai Asks Why, joins us to talk about its new season, which includes episodes about issues related to climate change. On his podcast, Tai asks questions to expert scientists in their field, whether it's about recycling, meat eating, energy, and how young people can get involved in solving climate change. This segment is guest-hosted by WNYC's Matt Katz.
Megan and Michelle ponder deja vu, wish fulfillment, brain misfires, The Truman Show, semantic satiation, tartlets, and having two feelings at once.
Ever wondered why nothing feels better than a deep belly laugh? Or why it's impossible to not inhale a bag of chips in one sitting? You're not alone — and you bet Tai's got you covered. Season 4 of Tai Asks Why starts April 20, but you can hear episodes two weeks early on CBC Listen with a free account (web browser only). See ya soon!

In 2011, she was selected to take part in the United Nations Human Rights Fellowship Program for people of African-Descent. She was the youngest and only UN delegate from the fellowship to also receive a scholarship with the Organization Internationale de la Francophonie (OIF). This became the starting point for her to pursue her career in journalism and filmmaking. She produced the audio-fiction podcast The Shadows which won Gold in the fiction category at the 2019 Canadian Digital Publishing Award, and the CBC podcast Tai Asks Why, which won a Webby people's choice award.

The film stars Josiah Wilson who was adopted as a baby in Haiti and raised in an Indigenous family in Calgary, Canada. Years later, when Josiah is racially profiled at an Indigenous basketball tournament and refused the right to play a sport he deeply loves, his experience makes the news. This honest portrayal of complicated family dynamics interweaved with basketball, boldly asks us to create space for non-linear paths to self-acceptance, while revealing the empowering experience of being accepted and loved by your community.

During our conversation, Ms. Mathurin talked about: – Some of her background including being born in Haiti, living in Montreal, Calgary and Toronto – Her transition from Haiti to Canada – Where her passion to do media and social justice come from – Her experiences and awards making her a better content creator – Living in different cities impacting on how it impacted how she views the world – The story behind One of Ours – Basketball being important in Indigenous culture – The history of the adoption of Haitian kids being adopted – Various aspects of the film – Some of the impacts of colonization on Indigenous culture – Being accepted by the Indigenous community – Her and the Josiah's family's feelings when everyone first saw the film – The film changing her and what Josiah has said about the film – What is next for her You can find more about One of Ours via: One of Ours You can find out more about Ms. Mathurin via: Website Twitter Instagram Email Visit The Dr. Vibe Show™ at https://www.thedrvibeshow.com/ Please feel free to email us at dr.vibe@thedrvibeshow.com Please feel free to “Like” the “The Dr. Vibe Show” Facebook Fan Page here God bless, peace, be well and keep the faith, Dr. Vibe 2020 Podcast News Award Winner – Canadian Ethnic Media Association 2018 Innovation Award Winner – Canadian Ethnic Media Association The Dr. Vibe Show™ At “The Good Men Project” One of the first Brand Ambassador's – Cuisine Noir Magazine Dr. Vibe – Producer And Co-host of Black Men Talking On WJMS Radio Dr. Vibe on HuffPost Live – August 2, 2013 2013 Black Weblog Awards Finalist (Best Podcast) 2012 Black Weblog Awards Winner (Best International Blog) 2012 Black Weblog Awards Finalist (Best Podcast) 2011 Black Weblog Awards Finalist (Best International Blog and Best Podcast Series) Black Blog Of The Day – Black Bloggers Network – June 23, 2011 Twitter Twitter hashtag: #DrVibe The Dr. Vibe Show™ – iTunes The Dr. Vibe Show™ – Spotify Dr. Vibe Media – You Tube The Dr. Vibe Show™ – Stitcher Radio The Dr. Vibe Show™ – TuneIn Radio The Dr. Vibe Show™ – Google Podcasts The Dr. Vibe Show™ – iHeartRadio The Dr. Vibe Show™ at Anchor Linkedin – The Dr. Vibe Show™ Instagram The Dr. Vibe Show Facebook Fan Page
It seems like kids always ask the silliest questions. Why don't humans breath fire like dragons? Do dinosaurs have jet packs? Parents usually just brush them off and never give the curious kid the answer. However, Tai Poole gathers up all of his questions (no matter how silly) and seeks to find the answers on his podcast Tai Asks Why. He has episodes that discuss questions that most of us have probably wondered about at least once in our lives. Listen in as we talk to Tai about his podcast, juggling school and podcasting, and following your curiosity.
