Sex and the ancient Greek city: Saint John poet and director Clyde Wray is staging 'Lysistrata' at the Saint Arts centre. He spoke with us about Aristophanes' play about Greek women who withheld sex from their husbands in a bid to end the 27-year Peloponnesian war. Also on this edition of 'Serf City: 'Telegraph-Journal' columnist John Chilibeck and CHSJ news director Gary MacDonald give us a progress report on the mayor's race in Saint John. Brenda Murphy, coordinator of the Urban Core Support Network, talks about the Statistics Canada report that showed a 4 per cent drop in Saint John's poverty rate. UNBSJ economics professor Rob Moir joins us for a discussion on how corn crops are hurting, not helping, efforts to feed the world's poor.
