You can't really call Regina a news desert. They still have a newspaper. But if you actually look under the hood you’ll discover that they stopped printing the newspaper in Regina. They stopped editing it in Regina. The editor lives somewhere else. And as far the CBC goes, well, that acronym is now synonymous with layoffs.
Everyone from the legacy media who purports to be telling people in Regina what is going on in their own community is doing so with less resources than ever before. These are zombie news organizations. That creates a news vacuum. A place for someone new to step in. And somebody did.
And that somebody peddles garbage. That's not a value judgment of this new news source in Regina. It's just the objective truth. They're a garbage company called Just Bins. They provide dumpsters and news to the people of Regina. And they may be providing news to more people in Regina than anyone else.

It’s all about the T.
“T” as in the T at the end of ChatGPT. That T stands for Transformer. And it’s already transforming many aspects of your life. Novelist and essayist Stephen Marche recently investigated that T for the New Yorker magazine. He came away from the experience saying that it is the most important story he’s ever written. His piece details what he calls the Manhattan Project of our time. He also calls it, simply, magic, and he then goes on to define magic as “the word we use for things that are hugely powerful but we don't understand why.”
Marche joins Jesse Brown to tackle the questions: why was Toronto a hotbed for A.I. (as marked by last week’s awarding of the Nobel Prize to U of T prof Geoffrey Hinton for his pioneering work in the field)? Why is the Japanese punk band Transformer at the very heart of this whole story? And why exactly does Marche equate T with magic?

Dans le Canada de 2024, beaucoup se sentent exclus, déshumanisés et se rendent compte que la place qu’ils croyaient occuper n’existe pas en réalité. Pour faire face à cet enjeu existentiel, et pour faire sens d’un monde hostile et brutal, Emilie Nicolas a invité le sociologue Philippe Néméh-Nombré. Le professeur de l’Université Saint-Paul (Ottawa) est auteur d’un nouveau livre, ‘Improviser le reste. Études noires, risques poétiques, relationalité décoloniale”, dans lequel il explore le rôle des études noires, de la débrouillardise et de l’inventivité pour se réinventer. Ensemble, Emilie et Philippe discutent de la manière dont les études noires permettent de critiquer et comprendre le monde contemporain et ses rapports de pouvoir. Ils montrent que les études noires peuvent nous outiller pour mieux définir notre place. La deuxième partie de l’émission s’intéresse aux campus universitaires: comment est-ce que les étudiants, notamment étrangers, vivent le contexte actuel? Et quelle place occupent les études noires dans les universités francophones?
In Canada, many feel excluded, dehumanized and realize that the place they thought they occupied does not actually exist. To tackle this existential issue and to make sense of a hostile and brutal world, Emilie Nicolas speaks with sociologist Philippe Néméh-Nombré. The professor from Saint Paul University in Ottawa has authored a new book, ‘Improvise the rest. Black studies, poetic risks, decolonial relationality”, in which he explores the role of Black studies, of resourcefulness and inventiveness in reinventing oneself. Together, Emilie and Philippe explore the way in which Black studies enable us to criticize and understand the world and its power relations. They show that Black studies can equip us to better define our place. The second part of the show focuses on university campuses: how do students, particularly foreign ones, experience the current context? And what place do Black studies occupy in Francophone universities?
