It’s Party For Two, and Jerry is joined by Jim Richards, host of The Jim Richards Show on NEWSTALK 1010, to break down the top stories of the day.

Next, Jerry previews this weekend’s FlavorPhiles and opens the phones with a food debate: What’s one food that can be made fancy, but you still prefer the processed, out-of-the-box version?

From Kraft Dinner to classic grilled cheese, listeners defend their comfort-food favourites.

Jerry then turns to energy costs where he speaks with Dan McTeague, President of Canadians for Affordable Energy, about reports that Ontario electricity bills could rise following a settlement involving Ontario Power Generation rates, and what consumers should expect.

The week wraps with Touchdowns & Fumbles! Jerry and Bob Reid, Principal at Broadway Strategy & Communications, review listener votes on the communications effectiveness of the bike lane removal protests in Etobicoke. With arrests made and demonstrators vowing continued resistance, was the tactic a Touchdown or a Fumble?

Jerry opens the show by answering questions about Alberta’s referendum proposals, as he would for an Ontario referendum.

Jerry then turns to policing and technology as he speaks with Patrick Watson, Professor of Criminology and Socio-Legal Studies at the University of Toronto, about Ottawa’s proposal to expand police access to radio signal jammers and the balance between investigative tools and civil liberties.

He then speaks with Greg Carrasco, host of The Greg Carrasco Show on NEWSTALK 1010, about why EV sales continue to grow in Canada, but not as quickly as some experts and policymakers had hoped.
