They talk about the recent decision by the Toronto District School Board to not promote the book club to its students if they choose to discuss a new book by Defence Lawyer Marie Henein, and why that is a bad decision for the students.
Next, Alex talks with Dr. Chris Keefer, the President of Canadians for Nuclear Energy. They talk about Dr. Keefer's video of him questioning Minister of Environment and Climate Change Stephen Guilbeault at COP26 about his position on Nuclear Energy, and why the Minister failed to give an answer.

His name is Alex Roy, and he explains what happened, how he got involved, and how the experience left him feeling.
