“2022 Hunger Count” & Food Bank Demand, Shaw-Rogers Deal, World-Class Tennis inn YYC, and the Perfect Marriage of Beer & Pizza

Food banks are struggling to keep up with demand. How does Calgary and Alberta compare to the numbers across the nation? We get details on the nationwide “2022 Hunger Count” from Betty Jo Kaiser, Communications Coordinator with the ‘Calgary Food Bank’.   It Looks like Rogers 26-billion dollar merger with Shaw has been put on ice, at least for now. We discuss the future of the deal and how you may be impacted, with Ben Klass, PhD Candidate from Carleton University’s School of Journalism and Communication.   Top tier tennis will be served-up in Calgary next month. We find out how you can get ‘up close’ to the action with Danny Da Costa, CEO of the “Osten & Victor Alberta Tennis Centre”.   Finally, if pizza and beer wasn't already a perfect marriage, a local business is improving this ‘perfect pairing’. We speak with Kyle Heier from “Half-Hitch Brewery” on the transition from Pints to Pizza and the birth of “The Mash” restaurant.
