Show Notes
David and foreign correspondent Tony Five debrief the US general election debate. Then, it's The Science Appliance with Dan Riskin. Dan talks about how we're meaner to people in our own country than those who are far away, how engineers are working on the sun-slingshot maneuver from Star Trek, and how if you're bad at recognizing faces, it may hurt your social life. After that, It's Time for Technology Time with Carmi Levy. Carmi shares that Canada joined NASA in the fight against asteroids smashing earth, and the story of a toddler rescued from a Tesla. David rants about music and video piracy as the two discuss the five men convicted for an illegal Netflix clone. Kristine Seguin – the owner of Axel the cat, an overweight cat and TikTok star – makes an appearance. Finally, supply networks and aviation lecturer at McGill John Gradek explains why things are going from bad to worse in the airline industry.
