Alright Herle Burly-ites, time for the pod.

For Part 1, we’ve got Amanda Lang in the ZOOM square today! A high-profile business journalist in this country, Amanda helped launch BNN-Bloomberg’s predecessor, ROBTV, over 20 years ago. She’s worked at CNN, the Globe and Mail and the National Post. And she was senior business correspondent for CBC News. We’ll talk about the state of journalism in this country and the state of the nation's finances.

For Part 2, it’s the Political Panel, with our cussin’ cousins, strategists Jenni Byrne and Scott Reid.  We’ll pick up on the Amanda conversation. Plus, we’ll get into:

The Liberal Climate Plan – the carbon price hike, and the what the political implications are for all parties...

The changeover at the Finance Department with Freeland and Sabia. What kind of new thinking are we in for here...

A Spring Election. Will there be one? And if so, what’s the prime imperative for each party.

And finally, we’ll each throw our “Hey You!” question out into the void.
