Art McDonald - Exploring the Universe from the Inside, Out!
Season 8 · Episode 11
mardi 18 mars 2025 • Duration 40:00
Physics is everywhere—even if you haven’t thought about it since high school! In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Art McDonald, a professor of astrophysics at Queen’s University and winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 2015.
For forty years, Dr. McDonald and his team focused their research on neutrinos—tiny, elusive particles that help us understand the fundamental workings of the universe. Their research took place two kilometers underground in a nickel mine in Sudbury, and we’ll take you there to uncover the story behind it.
Join us for a fascinating conversation that sheds light on the mysteries of physics, space, and the unseen forces shaping our world.
Recorded: Mid-March 2025

Niki Boytchuk-Hale - Rector, Queen's University
Season 8 · Episode 10
mardi 25 février 2025 • Duration 33:30
The role of Rector at Queen’s University is truly one of a kind—no other Canadian university has a position quite like it. Rooted in Scottish tradition, the Rector has been a key part of Queen’s governance.
In this episode, I sit down with Niki Boytchuk-Hale, the 39th Rector of Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario, to discuss her journey to this unique role. We explore the responsibilities of the Rector, the challenges and opportunities that come with representing nearly 30,000 students, and the projects she’s championing.
Niki shares what inspired her to run, the student issues that land on her desk in 2025, and what she hopes to take away from the experience when her term is up.
Join us for a fascinating conversation about leadership, advocacy, and the student experience at Queen’s.

Christopher Fanning - Covering Local News
Season 8 · Episode 1
mardi 22 octobre 2024 • Duration 32:29
Welcome back to The Kingstonian Podcast! We’re excited to kick off Season 8 with a timely discussion on the critical state of local news. In a media landscape increasingly dominated by corporate ownership, many local outlets have been forced to close, leaving communities in the dark about the issues that matter most to them.
In this episode, I speak with Christopher Fanning, an English Professor at Queen’s University, who, alongside his wife, Karen Valihora, has taken a bold step to counter this trend. Together, they purchased the Picton Gazette, the oldest weekly newspaper in Canada, with a mission to preserve and promote local journalism.
Join us as we explore their journey, the challenges they face, and the importance of local stories in fostering community connection and awareness. Whether you're a long-time listener or new to the show, this conversation will resonate with anyone who values the role of local media in our lives.
