Hosted by former CBC journalist Adrian Harewood, In Bed with the Elephant is a podcast for people who are passionate about ideas, and crave conversation and debate. Each week, Adrian (now a journalism professor at Carleton University) interviews a guest, or guests, with special knowledge and a unique perspective on what’s happening in Canada — and around the world. The goal is to enlighten and entertain, and we’ll talk about everything. From politics to sports, and from land grabs to trade wars. We will tackle big, uncomfortable questions, and wrestle with taboos. We will disrupt preconceptions and challenge convention. We will transport you to distant lands each week, and bring you home again. Welcome to a podcast that always tackles the elephant in the room. Ricochet Media, an award-winning non-profit outlet known for public-service journalism, is the producer of this podcast. Our funding comes from readers and listeners like you, and charitable foundations. We want to hear from you! Send us your feedback to [email protected]. Who would you like to hear on the show?
