About the show
Beyond the headline.
WJ Talks will feature thoughtful, direct conversations with the people who know their subjects best: community leaders, public officials, researchers, creators, advocates, entrepreneurs and residents with stories worth hearing.
Each episode will make room for context, curiosity and honest discussion. Some conversations will begin in Waterloo Region. Others will connect local readers to larger national and international questions. All will share one purpose: helping our audience understand the people and ideas behind the news.
