Sam, Chris, Alexi and Kate look back on 2019 and discuss what was to love (sorta), what worried us (lots), and what we thought was over-reported and under-reported in the news. We also bid adieu to Kate Hammer as she steps back from the pod, but send her off in style.

Sam and Chris sit down with veteran political operative Pat Sorbara to talk about her life in politics, where the Wynne government went wrong, the Ontario Liberal Leadership race, and her thoughts on whether the Ford government can recover from its..... less than ideal poll numbers.

Chris, Sam, and Alexi check in on the Ontario Liberal leadership race, what the process has been like so far, and how the campaigns are doing. How will the party pick its leader?

Chris sits down with Ontario Liberal Leadership candidate Kate Graham to talk about her vision for a government focused on well-being, and how that means using the gas tax to build green transit all over Ontario.
