Curse of Politics
Air Quotes MediaPolitics. It’s a blessing and a curse. On good days, it’s about your friends in the foxhole with you. On bad ones, it’s the mountain of votes that went the other way.

Canadaa month ago - Drivel
It is amazing you guys have a sponsor, or maybe it’s because you have a sponsor that you can keep this up. This is the cringiest, most disingenuous drivel I have had the displeasure of sitting through. Do you guys ever listen back to how you sound?
Apple Podcasts1YunaLove85Canadaa month ago - what happened?
I’ve listened to this show for a long time, and it used to be great. Lots of entertaining ideological friction. Now, it’s a boring Liberal echo chamber, with two Liberals, a Tory who is clearly a Liberal, and the most Liberal “leftist” imaginable.

Apple Podcasts1OfficemattCanada4 months ago - Stop taking advertising money from big tobacco
Been a huge fan of the show and a regular listener for years now, but I’m very disappointed to hear an ad from Rothmans, Benson and Hedges promoting deregulation for their nicotine products. Unsmoke.ca is not about health or going smoke free, it’s a thinly veiled effort to protect big tobacco’s interests and maintain nicotine addiction. Do better, Herle!
