And here's what made the researchers stop cold — the pattern closely mirro... In today's episode, Alex and Maya explore how Toronto's economy, AI's rapid evolution, and behavioural science intersect — and what it all means for how we live and work.

[warm] Nineteen kilometres. Fifteen underground stations. One of the largest subway openings in North America in decades. And half the city still can't believe it's actually real....
