Jerry opens the show with a message: go ahead and start a business. He takes on what he sees as common myths about capitalism, and wealth.

Next, Jerry speaks with Graeme Davis, co-founder of Pluto, a new community-focused space in Toronto that aims to bring people together in person rather than online. They discuss the idea of a "fourth space" and what happens when people prioritize real-world connections over digital ones.

As artificial intelligence continues to reshape the workplace, Jerry speaks with Tony Chapman, branding and marketing expert and host of the Chatter That Matters podcast, about concerns that AI is accelerating job displacement and changing the future of work.

Plus, Jerry weighs in on concerns from parents about an Ontario school choosing to hold an autumn party rather than a traditional Halloween celebration. He shares his thoughts on changing school traditions and where schools should draw the line.

It's Party for Two! Jerry is joined by Jim Richards, host of The Jim Richards Show on Newstalk 1010, to discuss the top stories of the day.

Should special interest groups have the power to influence who gets elected to city council? Jerry speaks with Amanda Galbraith, co-founder and partner at the Oyster Group, about the growing role advocacy groups play in municipal politics and whether that influence is helping or hurting local democracy.
