10:18 | New Zealand's Prime Minster is stepping down, in somewhat of a surprising move. Jacinda Ardern hasn't specifically said why she's leaving, but that's not stopping pundits from speculating. Supriya Dwivedi says it may be proof of a problem plaguing politics around the world. Plus, NDP leader Jagmeet Singh faced fire again this week for talking about poverty while wearing a pricey watch. Is this something the average person should care about? Supriya has something to admit! 

33:10 | Grocery costs are way up across the country. This week's Real Talk Round Table presented by Urban Timber focuses on farming and food. Farmers Jeff Nonay and Steele Perrett and journalist Marc Fawcett-Atkinson give us a fascinating look into the factors driving cost increases. We learn how the carbon tax actually presents a huge opportunity for Ag producers, and how disinformation is polluting much of the national conversation around food.
