US/Canada tariffs can’t stop this cross-border partnership
Summary
Canada’s new tariffs on US goods take effect, straining cross-border business partnerships like that of two tea companies collaborating after Hurricane Helene. The episode also honors Cree filmmaker Georgina Lightning, who died while filming a documentary, and features a German politician discussing the far-right AfD’s historic election win in Saxony-Anhalt. Additionally, a Finnish metal detectorist shares his discovery of the country’s largest Viking-era silver hoard, while a bioacoustician explains how scientists reconstructed ancient insect sounds from 165-million-year-old fossils.
