It's Family Day weekend, and that means it's one of two annual opportunities to venture out on Alberta's lakes and drop a line without needing a fishing licence. And while you may be wary of the windchill and life's other stresses, it's worthwhile to take a note from the winter-wise Finns, who regard ice fishing as a form of meditation.
As you step out on that placid tundra with your cohort, bring along your podcatcher and the week's new listens from the team at APN.
