What a joy it was to join the brilliant @SusanBonner on @TheCurrentCBC to discuss the bluefin's trash-fish history, the glitzy 1930s sport fishery for the species, and what its remarkable recovery can tell us about saving our planet. Listen in! cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…

Believe whatever you want, but don’t look away. Ceasefire now.

As Israel’s war on Hamas enters its sixth week, hospitals in Gaza are on the front lines. Three doctors working in Gaza describe what the war looks like from inside their overwhelmed hospitals. Listen to “The Daily.” nyti.ms/3QWxXSM



“Uniting science, history, food, and biography with compelling investigative journalism, Pinchin creates an engaging and powerful narrative that explores the past, present, and future of Atlantic bluefin tuna.”

It's @karenpinchin day on the @cangeo #ExplorePodcast, in conversation about her new @PenguinRandomCA book, "Kings of their Own Ocean." It's a fascinating and ultimately uplifting deep dive into the history and future of the bluefin tuna. Great talk! canadiangeographic.ca/podcasts/kings…

This is why I left J-school feeling as though young ppl interested in pursuing journalism as a career should not study it in undergrad. That time should instead be taken to study history, political science, philosophy — to broaden your relation to & understanding of the world.

It’s been shocking to see the lack of historical context provided in too many stories about the #Israel- #Palestine conflict. As journalism educators we need to prepare our students to tell critical stories. They need to be studying more history/philosophy/political theory.
