As it Happens - Friday Edition
Part One
Manitoba men switched at birth
For the second time, two men have discovered they were switched at birth by a hospital in northern Manitoba -- and our guest says that's nothing short of a crime.
Modest swimwear
A French court says one town's ban on the burkini violates civil liberties -- and our guest, who designs swimwear for Orthodox Jewish women, couldn't agree more.
Part Two
ISIS recruit: lawyer
It's unusual for a convicted criminal to thank the FBI agents who caught him -- but that's what a Mississippi man did this week, when he was sentenced for planning to join ISIS.
London Underground sound
According to a British artist, every station in the London subway has its own particular sonic character -- and the sound map he's helped create is becoming an underground phenomenon.
