    I have recently started listening to this podcast again after a first try years ago.

    This time around is much different for me. I have a profound appreciation for these guys - they are sincere, funny, and show present compassionate views of all humans. This is an amazing true Canadian podcast.

    I could literally listen to these two all day…. Especially Matthew - He has the best radio/podcast voice.

    Cheers 🍻 😘

  • Between the ads, the depressing divorced host or his friend that makes everything about him, this is a terrible podcast. They mispronounced so many places where I am from, it made a case that was incredibly interesting unlistenable. On top of that they're pro genocide.

    Don't give them listens.

    Every episode ends up being about something to do with aboriginals or Métis. Just report the story and stop giving your opinions on everything.
