(07/04/2011–06/28/2021)

TVO (CA)30 min

The Agenda in the Summer with Nam Kiwanuka engages public-minded individuals in current affairs and social issues in an absorbing and insightful manner with a special series of in-depth one-on-one interviews. From literature, to the collapse of globalism, to homophobia in the NHL, to our relationship with food, to Internet freedom, to war photography, to ... look, you're just going to have to tune in. We've got a little bit of everything in store for you this summer. Airs 8 ET.
