Jody and George talk personal change, then onto the federal election campaign, where Liberal leader Justin Trudeau may have pivoted in the direction he was hoping for during the French Leaders' Debate; then the intentionally provocative anti-vax and anti-passport protests focused around hospitals; and finally, Vancouver has a literal and metaphorical broken windows problem - but at least there's no plan to deal with it.

SWIM ON:
- Last week's UnSpun was a doozy. That's the promo line.
- Don't miss Jody's piece this week, about getting past assumptions, and then helping the vaccine hesitant to get past their own individual barriers. One shot at a time.
- Jody mentions her fantastic new opportunity at Al-Jazeera - she's not leaving The Orca, all good - and here's the piece and moment that started the whole thing.
