    February 23 2025-Former Israeli PM Ehud Olmert on the Return of Hostages & Retro Cooking with Chef Cori Doern Will the latest horrific revelations around the release of the bodies of four Israeli hostages affect the ceasefire? Or is the release of all the remaining hostages held by Hamas terrorists imminent and would it mark the end of the war in gaza? I asked Ehud Olmert, Israel's 12th Prime minister who served in that role between 2006 and 2009 and as a cabinet minister before that. He began his career with the ruling right wing Likud party but broke to the centrist kadimah Party under then Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, who he succeeded. On the one year anniversary of the October 7 massacre, just a few months ago, he presented a joint proposal to end the war with former Palestinian Authority foreign minister Nasser al-Kidwa. When we spoke earlier this week, he predicted that the Hamas terror group would offer to release those remaining hostages if the second phase of the Gaza ceasefire goes ahead. And What’s old is new again at least in the kitchen! Vintage recipes handed down from Grandma are making a comeback! Casseroles, baked pastas, creamy chicken dishes. But these retro dishes are being reimagined for today’s tastes. And the really good news is that they are usually affordable. I got some tasty tips about retro cooking from Chef Cori Durn.

    February 16 2025-60th Anniversary of Canada’s Flag & Rethinking Cancer Drug Trials Were you flying our flag this weekend? February 15th marked the 60th anniversary of the red and white Maple Leaf and with Donald Trump’s continuing threats against our sovereignty and economy, Flag Day took on a special meaning. I talked with Historica Canada’s Anthony Wilson-Smith about the history of the flag that was first raised on Parliament Hill in 1965. And It seems obvious that new cancer drugs and the clinical trials that test them should put the needs of cancer patients first but according to a group of oncologists, in the last decade, many new treatments have had very small benefits. They have laid out the principles for improving cancer trial design in the influential online journal The Lancet Oncology. I reached Dr. Bishal Gyawali in Kingston.
