Description

In this episode Luba Magnus and Chris Bumbray debate:



  • A new survey finds most Canadians under the age of 55 could not handle an unexpected expense of more than $1,000. Would you be able to handle an unexpected expense of that amount?

  • The first human to get an implant brain-chip from Elon Musk's Neuralink is said to be doing well. The goal is to help patients overcome paralysis and a host of neurological conditions. Would you trust this type of technology?

  • Fitness guru Richard Simmons is distancing himself from a biopic being made about his life. Simmons says he never gave permission for the movie, while its star, Pauly Shore says it's "all about love.” Do you care if the real-life subject of a movie gives their permission?
