This week on What Happened Next, host Nathan Whitlock is joined by National Magazine Award–winning journalist and author Bonny Reichert. Her first book, the memoir How to Share an Egg: A True Story of Hunger, Love, and Plenty, was published by Penguin Random House Canada’s Appetite imprint in 2025. Bonny talks to Nathan about her initial resistance to writing the book that became How to Share an Egg, about how publishing a very revealing memoir can lead readers to demand that authors reveal even more about themselves, and about her newest work in progress, a work of fiction, which she is finding both difficult and a relief.

Independent lawyer and consultant Jesse McCormick argues that making any meaningful progress with Canada’s major projects will require building trust with First Nations by prioritizing their consent and establishing regulatory systems that put First Nations behind the wheel. McCormick spoke at The Walrus Talks Sovereign Canada in Toronto on October 28, 2025.
