This week’s show focuses on how we perceive and subjectively experience the world around us. Matt Street chats with Mark MacLean, a Certified Trainer of neuro-linguistic programming (NLP). They discuss how our view of the world is shaped by our own thoughts, words and gestures… “the map is not the territory!”
John Wall and Carol Hunsberger have a live, in-studio discussion about the ‘science’ of happiness. Carol sums up how researchers have tried to measure and explain how happy we are, and shares their tips on how to be happier.
Nate Prier returns to the show to investigate the labour conditions driving the California strawberry industry, which provides most of Canada’s off-season berries.
Did you hear there’s another planet a lot like Earth? It’s true, and it’s only 20 light years away. Find out about this and more with Paul Martin’s roundup of the week’s environmental news.


That was an interesting story about the strawberries and the NLP. Maybe we should use NLP to rethink the way in which we buy food?
