    long live the Fourth Estate (with Allan Thompson)

    our guest today is the Director of the School of Journalism and Communication at Carleton University and head of Carleton’s journalism program, Allan Thompson. Professor Thompson is a lifelong journalist who's reported from newsrooms around the world—from Washington, to England, to Rwanda. Thompson joined us to examine the current state of American political journalism in the Trump era, and to tell us why he still has faith in the future of news media thanks to the passion and energy shown by the next gen of j-schoolers. ■■■■ City and Nuuchimii is an independent, non-partisan current affairs podcast created and co-hosted by Maïtée Saganash and Jenn Jefferys. we are entirely listener-funded, so please subscribe now to keep us on the air. ■■■■ City and Nuuchimii podcast is currently seeking new partnership opportunities and advertisers. if your brand is interested in working with us, helping us grow, or in sponsoring our independent podcasting, we'd love to hear from you! please get in touch today : citynuuchimii@gmail.com

    smashing patriarchy through shine theory (with Julie S. Lalonde)

    Our Galentine's Day guest this year is the magnificent Miss Julie S. Lalonde—a dear friend of ours as well as a bestselling author, an internationally recognized women’s rights advocate, and a public educator. Franco-ontarienne du nord de l’Ontario, elle est basée à Ottawa. Julie holds a BA and MA in Canadian Studies and Women’s Studies from Carleton University with a focus on the lives of economically disadvantaged elderly women. Julie and Jenn discussed how to discuss Epstein while centering survivors, the many brosocialist losers lurking on the left, harassment and bystander intervention, and the urgent need for strong millennial feminist friends (like us!) to lift eachother up and stop tearing eachother down (shine theory, baby!).

    simply yearning to coexist (with Jesse Brown)

    the mensch behind Canadaland has launched an investigative podcast series called What Is Happening Here? which documents the frightening rise of antisemitism in Canada.

    collapsing empires and mayoral rizz (with Supriya Dwivedi)

Supriya is a political pundit on CBC's Power & Politics and a columnist for the Toronto Star and National Observer. she joined us from Toronto in December 2025. ■■■■ Sources and further reading Rob Gillies for the Associated Press: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVPc4aSbCakBeisan Zubi for the Ottawa Citizen: https://ottawacitizen.com/opinion/columnists/zubi-this-is-why-we-need-journalists-of-colour-covering-politicsAshley Burke for CBC News: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qU_wG-uDBPYThe Bridge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJaiL8DDG7M&t=5sGlobal News: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I74-xp2TBkIToday Show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3T-OA3C218New York Times: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4X0hI40a8AMeidasTouch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ammj-V7YXK8CNN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zq2x-Tm7dICarole Cadwalladr on The Daily Show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vG7CvbccdVMCanadian Press: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPhXLWPndUE■■■■City and Nuuchimii is an independently produced non-partisan podcast created and co-hosted by Maïtée Saganash and Jenn Jefferys.
