    <title>Good Question with Amanda Lang</title>
    <description>Every great conversation starts with a good question. Not the kind that shows off, the kind that shows up.  A good question isn&apos;t trying to prove something, it&apos;s genuinely curious to hear the answer. 

These are the conversations host Amanda Lang has been having for more than three decades. Conversations about business, about politics, about the ideas and forces that shape our lives. 

Episodes of Good Question with Amanda Lang will drop weekly, starting September 9th.</description>

      <title>Heather Reisman on books, tariffs and the &apos;antidote to antisemitism&apos;</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Heather Reisman, founder and CEO of Indigo, believes that despite all the tech at our fingertips, reading is having a comeback. She talks to host Amanda Lang about many big questions facing Canada – how we should be thinking about AI regulation, what Canadians can do to reduce mounting antisemitism, and why she wants Canadian kids to be ‘the best readers in the world’. After everything she’s built, what keeps her going? As she puts it, she created “Disneyland”, and gets to go there every day.
