Kids do Trump, genderless pronouns and moose-eating grizzlies
We put the American election into perspective by having children re-enact this week's hottest political quotes. Play our game and guess who said it?
Our panellists attempt the most dangerous game on the Internet: Shock Ball! Watch as Mary Walsh, Arisa Cox and Gavin Crawford play hot potato with the news while getting shocked.
A University of Toronto professor was recently scolded by the school for not calling students by their preferred gender pronouns. We don't know what all the fuss is about; moving to genderless language is surprisingly easy. To illustrate, let's play this week's hashtag game - #LyricsWithoutGender. Take gendered song lyrics and un-binary them - like the classic disco song, It's Raining Them!
This week's panel:
- This Hour Has 22 Minutes star Mary Walsh
- Host of Big Brother Canada Arisa Cox
- Author and broadcaster Tom Howell
