Ochre fest is a time when local book writers and book lovers get together. Its an annual event that has been going on for 14 years at Ochre Pit Cove.

 If you find yourself asking 'How can I protect my children from online harms?' Today's show is for you. We put it together following recent warnings about the extremist network 764, classified by the Canadian government as a terrorist entity. It targets, victimizes and recruits children. So today we talk about that, other online harms and what resources are available for parents. 

Seafarers, the folks who spend several months at sea and a big cog in global trade. We have a panel to talk about why ports with supports waiting for them on land is crucial, the risks seafarers face and N.L.’s history of supporting them. A conversation in the heels of International Day of the Seafarer.

It's been a slow gardening start for parts of Newfoundland and Labrador's grow season. On today's gardening show, Todd Boland and Mark Bowering offer tips and tricks to combat the cold weather.

National Indigenous People's Day is Sunday. It's a day to recognize and celebrate the traditions, cultures and contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis. And that is the theme for today's show.

We breakdown what led to his verdict.  

Today on the show we are talking to community members and advocates about men's mental health. They'll discuss breaking down stigma, supports for men and their families, and challenges of addressing mental health in the agriculture industry.
