Episode Party for Two | Lithium-Ion Fires | School Attendance | Back-to-School True or False
It's Party for Two! Jerry is joined by Mike Kakuk, Co-Host of Mornings with Mike and Meg on AM800 Windsor, to break down the top stories of the day.
Toronto has already surpassed its all-time record for lithium-ion battery fires. Jerry looks at the growing safety concerns surrounding e-bikes, scooters, and other battery-powered devices, and examines what can be done to reduce the risk.
Ontario schools are grappling with chronic absenteeism, but some experts argue that tying attendance directly to grades may create more problems than it solves. Jerry discusses the debate around student attendance, accountability, and educational outcomes.
Plus, it's back-to-school season, which means it's time for a special True or False segment. Producer Cristina Galle puts Jerry's knowledge to the test with a back-to-school themed Q&A, separating facts from fiction on education, learning, and school life.
