  • The International Press Institute recently released a report created by three Palestinian and three Israeli journalists that attempts to create a glossary of "neutral" terms for reporting on the conflict in Gaza. The report's editor, Naomi Hunt, talks to Q guest host Stephen Quinn about her group's efforts to create shared meaning in one of the most polarized issues of our time. [FULL POST]

  • Toronto jazz trio Bad Bad Not Good have forged a unique sound that's as much inspired by contemporary hip hop as it is by Miles Davis, which has led the group to collaborate with some of the best rappers working today. The band drops into Studio Q to perform live from their newest album, "Three". [FULL POST]

  • Best of Q: Jian's interview with Caroll Spinney, subject of the new documentary film "I Am Big Bird." at Toronto's Hot Docs film festival this week. For almost 50 years, the now 78 year old puppeteer has performed the roles of Sesame Street's Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch...and his dedication and inspiration have entertained and educated generations of kids. [FULL POST]
