July 3rd: Jowi Taylor and the Story of Six String Nation
It was during the lead up to the Quebec referendum in 1995 that Jowi Taylor came up with the idea for a guitar that would incorporate pieces of Canadian history, literally. He spearheaded a tremendous effort to find things as disparate and meaningful as Pierre Trudeau's canoe paddle, the sacred Golden spruce of Haida Gwai and Maurice Richard's Stanley Cup ring. Then, he had the 64 artifacts turned into a guitar. The guitar debuted three years ago....

July 1st: Stained Glass and Scannography in British Columbia
Today we have two items about British Columbia artists. First, Mike Bertucci, whose art is best viewed with a stream of warm sunlight. His stain glass creations shimmer in almost every corner of his house. The Prince George artist has been selling his work for over 35 years. Heading a bit farther south in B.C., an art show on Saltspring Island is exhibiting the work of six photographers who are changing their art. One, Janet Dwyer, doesn't even use a camera - she uses a computer scanner....

June 30th: Toys for Grown-ups Who Were Kids in the 80's and The Dangerous World of Butterflies
Let's go back to the 1980s when Saturday morning cartoons were little more than extended toy commercials. The Transformers, G.I. Joe, He-Man and all the rest found a way to keep the little tikes amused while pushing the latest action figures. We'll also hear about author Peter Laufer. Weary of writing about his usual topics of politics and war, he made an off-hand comment that his next book would be about "butterflies and flowers."...

June 26th: Letters From Beauly and a Gaelic Songwriter in Northern Ontario
It's not often that cleaning out the attic leads to writing a book but that's what's happened to Melynda Jarratt of Fredericton. When her family discovered a storehouse of letters written to and from her grandfather, she knew there was a story to tell. Then we'll hear from Dave Nicholson, a historian in Thunder Bay, Ontario. He has a story about a Gaelic songwriter who moved to that area from Scotland in the 19th century. He spoke with Gerald Graham on the program Voyage North....

June 24th: The God Debate - Terry Eagleton
Well, taking a shot at God seems to be a sure-fire way to get on the best seller lists these days. A vocal congregation of atheists has immerged in recent years, complemented by Richard Dawkins' book "The God Delusion" and Christopher Hitchens' book "God Is Not Great" but do they really know anything about the religions they so happily dismiss? Not really, according to Terry Eagleton's new book. Eagleton's one of Britain's best-known thinkers and critics....

For their thoughts, Anna Maria Tremonti hosted a panel discussion with three guests on The Current. They included the man who wrote the report that proposed this program, Charles Pascal....

At what point would you take the law into your own hands? At what point would you become so frustrated by vandals continually damaging your property, combined with a lack of response by the authorities, that you'd resort to making a citizen's arrest? That's exactly what Thomas Stamoulis had to do but how he did it is the real story behind this case. Thomas manages the Mystiko Greek Kitchen and Wine Bar in Ottawa.

For the most part, golf is a leisurely game. A round of 18 holes usually takes a good part of the day but Matt Barker was hoping to pack in a lot more than that last Monday. The assistant golf pro from Calgary, Alberta attempted to play 12 rounds in one day. That's 216 holes. He made the attempt to raise money for charity.

Today's highlight has to do with age and maybe a little ageism.

Most organized sports for kids are pretty expensive. With season's fees and the cost of equipment, activities like hockey and soccer can be pricey affairs. That's one of the reasons why flag football is taking off right now in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The kids don't need pads or helmets to play and the organizers have also put the emphasis on fun rather than competition. The CBC's Dan Kerslake reports on the growing popularity of the sport....
