Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Mass protests turn violent in France
Q: You're actually there in Ukraine. What's the latest on the fighting?

Four service members killed in massive fire at CFB Wainwright
Q: When it comes to that investigation, what are the next steps for the military?
David Common said a military board of inquiry would likely be led by a senior officer independent of the units involved and would consult technical experts to assess human error, equipment malfunction and protocol compliance.
What went wrong at CFB Wainwright?
Q: So what are we expecting? Are we expecting a rate hike?
Armstrong says the Bank of Canada's decision is uncertain: persistent inflation could justify a rate increase, but tariff risks and a slowing economy are reasons for caution.
