  • PLEASE stop doing this

    The 1-2 minute long intro music is so incredibly irritating and pointless; it sounds like the elevator music telecom companies make you listen to when they put you on hold.

    Please, please just stop adding music. You don't need an intro longer than 10 seconds.

  • Wrong

    I enjoyed the latest episode but the former judge was incorrect about the racist slavery component of the USA. Initially Africans were not considered inferior. In fact the first slave owner in the USA was an African. It wasn’t until well after the USA became established that African racism began. And…there were always opponents to the racist ideas regarding slavery. The majority of the USA was not in favor of slavery and were not racist. Read, “Not Stolen”, by Jeff Fynn-Paul. It’s a common mista... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Cartels Are in Canada, and No One Is Talking About It
Q: What practical steps should Canada take to strengthen security?
Enhance enforcement, strengthen intelligence-sharing with the United States and allies, improve port and border controls, and increase public awareness about security risks and policy actions; address corruption and money laundering more effectively.
The Cartels Are in Canada, and No One Is Talking About It
Q: What is the Kingpin Fallacy and why does it matter when addressing cartel leadership?
The Kingpin Fallacy argues that eliminating leaders disrupts but does not end cartel operations since leadership and operational networks are designed for continuity; thus, strategy must address succession planning and broader organizational structure, not just individual leaders.
The Cartels Are in Canada, and No One Is Talking About It
Q: Are the cartels in Canada, and how significant is their presence here?
Yes, the cartels are in Canada and have been for years, with documented ties to major groups like the Sinaloa Cartel; their presence spans most major cities and involves narcotics trafficking and money laundering.
“Unlawful. Illegal.” Why the Emergencies Act Decision Matters to Every Canadian
Q: Why do these rights really matter to us as Canadians?
These rights exist in recognition of the fact that each individual matters and has equal worth, allowing them to live their own lives free from government intrusion.
Tariffs, Fraud, and ICE: The US You’re Not Being Told About
Q: Is this immigration issue linked to domestic politics?
Yes, there are systemic issues with immigration policies that connect directly to how political power is maintained and challenged.
