  • Ticking sound

    Hey Charlie, don’t know why or what is going on but your podcast has this constant ticking sound. Makes it hard to listen to even though I enjoy listening to you.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

ANOTHER WILD WEEK IN POLITICS
Q: What can people do to put pressure on the federal government to defend public health care?
She outlines concrete actions: join provincial health coalitions, sign campaigns, come to Ottawa for lobbying, write letters to Mark Carney, and participate in organized demonstrations, with a focus on keeping health care public and resisting privatization.
ANOTHER WILD WEEK IN POLITICS
Q: So why are you in Moncton and what's the situation right now?
Anne explains she is in Moncton to discuss health care with Acadians and to cover how provincial measures like Bill 11 in Alberta could threaten health care nationwide, while she notes the Francophone communities along the Acadian coast are actively engaged in this fight.
EXPOSED: THE NEO-NAZI THREAT IN GERMANY
Q: How might Germany address the threat posed by anti-democratic forces within its political system, and what role could media play in that?
Germany could pursue legal remedies to outlaw anti-democratic parties through the basic law and constitutional provisions if there is clear evidence of anti-democratic activity, though political calculations and coalition dynamics currently stall progress. Independent media, especially transnational outlets, are crucial to provide independent, contextual reporting that counters misinformation and informs public debate.
EXPOSED: THE NEO-NAZI THREAT IN GERMANY
Q: What is the scale and mechanism of the AFD's rise in Saxony-Anhalt and how is it connected to broader East–West dynamics in Germany?
The AFD's growth is tied to long-standing East–West resentments fueled by austerity, economic precarity, and a sense of being left behind, which the party rebrands as a moderate alternative while maintaining extremist roots. External influence from Russia and supportive narratives from some Western actors further complicate the landscape, but the core driver remains domestic economic and social disenchantment.
MAGA Won't Break Up Our Country - We're Treaty People
Q: What was the issue about signing legal treaties with the Indigenous people of our country?
The discussion explains that treaty negotiations were meant to formalize Nation-to-Nation relations, but often involved coercive tactics and forced promises, including famine relief, which complicates the idea of fair agreements and has shaped current understandings of Indigenous land rights.
