The Paul Wells Show
Veteran journalist Paul Wells interviews the leaders and thinkers tackling the world’s big problems — war and peace, democracy and dictatorship, making governments and communities work. Paul draws on decades of experience as a reporter and columnist at Macleans, the Toronto Star and elsewhere to bring you smart, intimate conversations with newsmakers and people who deserve a higher profile.
