Video recording now available!

Join us for an engaging evening with Adam Waiser, co-host of Muddy York: A Toronto History Podcast, as he brings his latest episode, “Battle of St. Andrew,” to life in a special talk.

This discussion, inspired by the recent February 27th provincial election, will transport us back to 1955, when an election campaign in Toronto’s St. Andrew riding became a battle to unseat Ontario’s last Communist MPP. The race was about more than just party politics—it reflected deep divisions within Toronto’s Jewish community, raising pressing questions about representation, political identity, and allyship.

Adam Waiser is a passionate history enthusiast who started Muddy York after being inspired by a podcast about NYC history. He co-hosts the show with Grayson Miller, a media professional with a decade of experience in content creation and storytelling. Together, they uncover hidden stories of Toronto’s past, from political struggles to cultural shifts.

Muddy York has grown into a widely followed podcast, offering in-depth research, engaging narratives, and interviews with local historians and authors.
