An update that will promptly be out of date.

The basics of coronavirus and COVID-19 and what that means for us here in the most densely populated area of Canada.

This is just a big ol' thank you to everyone and to encourage you to write in your questions about Toronto, and I'll do the leg work to bring you super mediocre coverage of the topic. DM me @416.101podcast on instagram and facebook or email me at [email protected]

With the federal election right around the corner, it's good to understand the fundamentals of our democracy, the potential changes in our electoral system, and how it all applies to Toronto. Follow me on a dark adventure through the human psyche and it's ugly society to find the part we - as individuals - play to help shape it.

Toronto has the privilege of calling itself one of the most multicultural cities in the world. "Diversity our strength" is our city's motto. But what does that really look like? Let's find out together.

How gay is Toronto, you ask? Pretty gay. In this episode we explore significant queer history in this city, which, unfortunately, is pretty dark. But that's exactly why we need to explore it. By understanding the tumultuous relationship between the community and the police, the important figures that helped the city understand, and the current issues surrounding a historically marginalized community in this ever changing city of ours, we can have a deeper appreciation for each other and maybe all have just a little more Pride.

Ever wonder about how our city came to be? Who's running the show? Or why everyone's running their mouth about transit because transit doesn't seem to run? This premiere episode of 416:101 discusses the establishing of Toronto, how it led to Amalgamation, and what's going on right now. I talk to journalist Jeff Gray of the Globe and Mail, rush through over two hundred years of the founding of this city, and find endless entertainment in John Sewell.
