    This week, we're changing things up, here at Lean Out. We are pleased to be able to bring you an episode of Tara's new media criticism podcast with The Hub.

    Her co-hosts are Harrison Lowman, managing editor of The Hub, and Peter Menzies, a former newspaper executive. On this show, they discuss an interview with the new president of the CBC, the use of anonymous sources in Canadian media — and why some women may object to being referred to as “pregnant people.” Enjoy!

    EP 174: Scott Oake on Addiction, Loss, and Hope
    Feb 12 2025

    Negotiations over border security and the Trump administration’s tariffs have once again highlighted the opioid crisis that’s taking so many lives on both sides of the border. Today on the program, we’re going to leave behind the political and instead focus on the personal. My guest is a beloved Canadian sportscaster who lost his son to an overdose — and who has managed to transform his family’s pain into hope.

    Scott Oake is an award-winning sportscaster for CBC Sports, Sportsnet, and Hockey Night in Canada. He’s the author of For the Love of a Son: A Memoir of Addiction, Loss, and Hope, and a founder of the Bruce Oake Recovery Centre.

    EP 173: Jeff Rubin on Economic Warfare
    Feb 5 2025

    It’s been a whirlwind news cycle here in Canada, in the wake of President Donald Trump imposing 25 percent tariffs on Canadian goods. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has now announced that these tariffs are on hold for 30 days, as Canada implements its 1.3-billion-dollar border strategy, aimed at stopping the flow of fentanyl. The American tariffs have come as a surprise for many in this country. But our guest on today’s program says they have, in fact, been in the making for some time.

    Jeff Rubin is a Canadian economist, bestselling author, and a former chief economist and chief strategist for CIBC World Markets. His most recent book is A Map of the New Normal: How Inflation, War, and Sanctions Will Change Your World Forever. Jeff Rubin returns to the program.
