  1. Number 1: A Divided America and other stories

    Our roundup of the week begins with a discussion on the state of division in the United States and whether it will trigger a civil war. Then, should Ontario just let Omicron rip through the province to come closer to "community immunity?" Has society and its individuals lost the ability to look forward, strive, and be hopeful about the future? And author and journalist Ethan Lou discusses his book, "Once A Bitcoin Miner."

  4. Number 4: The Seduction of Cryptocurrency

    Journalist and author Ethan Lou spent some time mining cryptocurrency and meanwhile learning about the darker, shadier elements of the new way to make (or hoard) a new kind of money. In "Once a Bitcoin Miner: Scandal and Turmoil in the Cryptocurrency Wild West," he lends his journalist eye to his personal experiences in what has been called "millennial gold." He talks to Steve Paikin about how it all seems so much like the frontier experience in a new world. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  5. Number 5: Is the U.S. on the Verge of Civil War?

    "The United States is coming to an end," says Stephen Marche. In his new book, "The Next Civil War," the Canadian author insists rising inequality, racial conflict, environmental destruction, and a lack of unified national purpose, means another American civil war is now inevitable; it's just a matter of how. A year following the storming of the U.S. Capitol, The Agenda asks whether these fears are overblown, questions how divided America is and whether its undergone healing, or if its angry factions are headed towards serious violent conflict.
