Description

What does it mean to share a bed with power, whether it’s a corporation or an empire, when every move it makes shakes your world?

If that question keeps you up at night, In Bed with the Elephant is for you.

This is where honest, challenging conversations happen — the kind that make you think, and maybe rethink what you thought you knew.

Each week, veteran journalist and educator Adrian Harewood sits down with bold and brilliant guests at the top of their fields to unpack the forces shaping Canada and the world.

These guests aren’t afraid to name names and challenge consensus. So if you’re curious, critical, and just a little bit done with the status quo, have a listen.

In Bed with the Elephant is produced by Ricochet Media, a non-profit national outlet with a focus on investigative and context-rich journalism. If you like what you hear, pour your heart out at editor@ricochet.media. If you didn’t, you didn’t see this.
