  • Oi! Wear a helmet Jesse! It's incredibly important and needs more people on board. Literally saved me from a serious head injury when biking. Dented the helmet and split my ski goggles up the center, that's how much force I hit with. Thanks to the two, not even a minor concussion.

    Also (at least in sask) if there is no dedicated bike lane, then you use the driving lane. You can hug the right side and let someone pass if there's space.

    But please, as an example/influencer, helmets are important.

Really important to do your research guys. Plus Jesse grow some ball’s and enjoy our national sport hockey. While you’re promoting the liberals I suppose you 2 will be paying my share of the debt they brought on this country?? Remember this debt will be insurmountable as a nation. The liberals doubted it during Tr... more

    Nice concept but too much meaningless banter off the top and way too much swearing.

    After spending the first 3 minutes of the episode listening to the hosts “joke”/insult each other, I decided to turn it off and go looking for something more interesting, and pleasant.
