About this episode

Jerry Agar discusses e-bike battery fires, TTC safety upgrades, and honors military members at a community basketball game.

Jerry opens the show with a warm‑hearted version of his usual morning rant, by talking about what really matters.  He then turns to a shed fire that officials say was caused by lithium‑ion batteries in e‑bikes. Jerry weighs in on the growing number of fires linked to these batteries and what needs to change. Next, he looks at TTC safety upgrades as the agency says it’s advancing new initiatives, including AI‑driven monitoring and barrier pilot projects aimed at improving rider safety. Jerry closes the hour with a “Salute to Service” ahead of a special Honey Badgers basketball game honouring military members and first responders. Nainesh Kotak, from Kotak Personal Injury Law, joins Jerry to share details of the event.
