From now until the election day, the Orchard will be releasing weekly election update podcasts with a different guest each episode. The entirety of each election update episode will be free for anyone to listen to or watch.
Joining me this week is David Moscrop, author of Too Dumb for Democracy? Why We Make Bad Political Decisions and How We Can Make Better Ones. He’s also a prolific columnist, whose work has appeared in the Globe and Mail, Toronto Star, Washington Post, Canada’s National Observer and Jacobin.
(Apologies for the poor sound on my end for the first bit. I don’t know what happened there.)
