The Tideline, with Tara Thorne

Duane Jones, a Black man in a black t-shirt with a tiger graphic on the front. He's standing in front of a chain link fence on a summer day, and behind him you can see green trees blurred in the background.
Episode 61 of The Tideline, with Tara Thorne, is published.

Art Pays Me’s founder Duane Jones kicks off the new year with hope and advice as he details his journey from failed accounting student to founder of Halifax’s favourite streetwear line. He beams into the show to chat about his years at NSCAD, what happened when he realized his talent was being exploited, and how he turned that into a brand that demonstrates his personal ethos. Plus he and Tara discuss the series finale of Insecure, and whether Issa’s choice was the right one.

Uncover: Dead Wrong

In 1995, Brenda Way was brutally murdered behind a Dartmouth apartment building. In 1999, Glen Assoun was found guilty of the murder. He served 17 years in prison, but steadfastly maintained his innocence. In 2019, Glen Assoun was fully exonerated.

Halifax Examiner founder and investigative journalist Tim Bousquet has followed the story of Glen Assoun's wrongful conviction for over five years. Now, Bousquet tells that story as host of Season 7 of the CBC podcast series Uncover: Dead Wrong.
