The fabulous Stylo Starr joins us this week to speak about her art, the importance of representation in art, and how she connects with creativity. It's a super fun conversation that delves deep into a beautiful heart.

Zena is joined this week by poet Janet Marie Rogers, who speaks about honesty and authenticity in exploring her roots as an indigenous woman through her connection with language and what writing has meant to her in general. Janet has recently begun her term as Writer In Residence at McMaster University.

The ever-delightful Karen Brown Burson joins Zena this week to talk about food, it's relationship to our wellness and immune system, as well as how to breathe and relax in these Covidian times.

Zena and Dakota explore what they are each doing during social isolation. Zena is meditating and explains how important and powerful it can be. Dakota is re-watching her favourite films, and gives a very deeply nerdy analysis of Hitchcock's 'Rear Window'.

Zena and Dakota listen to your messages this week! We heard from a beautiful bunch of former guests and friends about what theyre doing to manage social distancing and quarantine through COVID-19.

Just in time for the flood of plague conspiracy theories, we get the benefit of the insight of Fearful Jesuit. He does the good work of analyzing conspiracy theories, digging into the why and what the heck of conspiracies, and putting it out into the world in his podcast, The Paranoid Strain.

This week's victim is Madame X! Or is it you, dear listener? We talked about the magical, the weird, the unusual, and all with joy. Oh, and we didn't even get a chance to talk about the fangs. She'll be back soon. :)

Tim Schwartz is our favourite new guest. He sat down with Zena to discuss his life of dealing with blindness and the podcast that he's created to help both himself and others.

Zena is joined this week by Ryan McGreal, publisher and writer for Raise The Hammer. They speak of politics, justice, equality, and how to be a better human.

Fear slips into our hearts and minds, and transmits itself through our population. Dakota and I spoke this week about the recent fears about the Wuhan Corona Virus, and break down what's healthy and what's not, with a mind to why such fears come up, how rational they are, and what the impacts can be.
