Adam Cohen takes the Culture Quiz

Musician Adam Cohen came by the studio to take the Cinq à Six Culture Quiz.

Listen to his conversation with Jeanette to discover why he's not reading books (and what he's reading instead), what he doesn't leave home without when he travels, and what songs get stuck in his head.

Chelsea Smokehouse

The often-overlooked Outaouais Region is in the spotlight for the Montreal Highlights Festival.

Jeanette went to the Marché Jean Talon to meet with James Hargraves and Line Boyer, the owners of the Chelsea Smokehouse.

They "don't smoke beavers" (listen to the audio to see what we mean) but they do smoke everything from butter to oysters, in addition to running a small restaurant called Le Resto.

James and Line tell us about their business, the remarkable story of how they got together (It involves a trip to the North Pole...) and then take the Cinq à Six Culture Quiz.
