Arthur Newspaper

Having kicked Sebastian off the air for reasons pertaining to feminism, Arthur girl squad members Evan and Abbigale seize the means of radio production to bring you the hard-hitting stories this international women's day.

In addition to the just-released Issue 5, our intrepid co-hosts discuss recent pyrocentric developments on London street, the intricacies of Canadian Home Renovation shows, and the nu-metal persuasions of the late, great, Akira Toriyama.

The Editors reunite once again in the studio to bring you the hard-hitting news: creative writing seminars suck and Arthur's beloved Sally Rooney is releasing a new novel.

In an episode largely full of literary criticism, three editors who read too much and have too little in the way of social lives give their unsolicited bookish opinions (this is not a safe space for Colleen Hoover fans) that reveal a lot about their star signs (so we've heard).

In other news, what is going on with the Trent Central Student Association's One Stop Chop Food Pantry? Listen and find out.

This radio show is award winning, baby! Arthur Newspaper has won Best Online Media Presence for the 2024 JHM Awards For Excellence in Student Journalism and we are making sure everyone knows it.

While Co-Editor and Co-Host, Evan Robins enjoys time away from this award winning show for a week, Abbigale and Sebastian talk about the JHM awards, analyze each other's strange work dreams, and follow up on the Trent Central Student Associations' twice failed attempt to pass their by-law package in a new move on behalf of the association that has the editors saying ... uh ... third time's a charm I guess?

What a week, eh weary writers?

Despite the previous night's inordinate snow fall, the Arthur editors have endeavoured to drag themselves to Trent Radio House, as there's plenty of news which begs to be talked about.

After a quick refresher on this week in Arthur, they dig into what has been a week among weeks (if ever there was one) of TCSA business—namely said group's decision to put proposed By-Law changes to referendum following their being voted down at the Association's Feb. 14th SAGM.

Sounds democratic to me!

This week, the editors have a big announcement.

Thanks to Bill C-18, Arthur's hiring policies have been revamped and starting next volume, all applications and expressions of interest must be made through the paper's Bumble Bizz profile.

Thanks, JT!

Anyways, this week brings audio reports from members of the Arthur staff with David King reporting on the proclamation of February as Black History Month at an event organized by the Community Race Relations Committee and the City of Peterborough.

Following that, Ian Vansegbrook returns to the Trent varsity volleyball beat with more whimsical takes about everything besides what the score was; or in other words, all the important stuff.

Co-Editors Abbigale Kernya and Evan Robins stand witness to the proverbial crash course of Trent University in this Sebastian-lite episode, examining the ongoing fallout of the International student visa cap.

The duo also discuss Trent's recent announcement that after a "comprehensive, nationwide," search they settled on ... Trent's own Dr. Cathy Bruce! Three cheers for inside baseball!

ALSO: YOUR FAVOURITE RAG IS UP FOR AWARDS!

We're as surprised as you are, but Arthur is indeed nominated for the Canadian University Press' JHM Student Journalism Award for Best Online Media Presence!

The inimitable Evan Robins has also been shortlisted for no fewer than three JHMs: for Feature Writing, Op-Ed Writing, and Marginalized Community Reporting!

The Editors reconvene to discuss the newly announced cap on the number of International Student Visas issued by the federal government—a decision which promises to have some rather marked impacts on a certain university of note to them.

Along the way, they discuss everyone's favourite student union, and the latest in news from the very-real not-fake place that is Cleantech Commons.

SOMEONE WHO IS GOOD AT BUDGET PLEASE HELP MY UNIVERSITY IS DYING #satire

It's just one of those days, but nevertheless, we Arthur.

The Arthur crew are back, beleaguered, and in the studio for the first time this year. With a busy week of ReFrame reviews bogging them down, they discuss the entries for this year's documentary film festival, some exciting new about Cleantech Commons, and a brand new segment from the courts, courtesy of Arthur's own sports correspondent, Ian Vansegbrook.

NEW YEAR. NEW TIME SLOT. SAME OLD SHENANIGANS.

2023 may be so over, but the Arthur team is so back it's like we were never gone! In this remote start to the radio season, Co-Editors Abbigale, Sebastian, and Evan discuss the pressing matters of their weekly newsletter playlist, as well as the recent full enforcement of Bill C-18.

More importantly, however, our intrepid trio have recently reacquired their literacy, and by consequence deign to offer a lit crit of the curatorial selections of a certain student union...
