  • Great podcast; when Vassy hosts

    Can we skip episodes instead of these awful stand in's? Absolutely unlistenable...I've tried many times to give them a try but spoken word isn't their thing. Please stick to Vassy only. Otherwise great!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Prime Minister Carney signs MOU with China
Q: Is there a direct line, do you believe, or do you have evidence to show that if ultimately Doug Ford does follow through, the Premier does follow through with this and remove Crown Royal from the LCBO, that workers in Gimli will be laid off, or that operations in Manitoba will be affected?
Premier Kinew argues that removing Crown Royal from the shelves would significantly harm the job market in Gimli, which is heavily reliant on the Crown Royal distillery.
Death toll in Iran rises as U.S. considers military action
Q: Do you support the concept of US military intervention in Iran?
Ehsassi responds that there are differing opinions in the community, emphasizing the blackout in Iran complicating communication. He advocates for actions that ensure the populace has the necessary communication access.
'Unwillingness to even broach the confrontation': Analyst says local and state officials could take more action following Minneapolis ICE shooting
Q: What do you attribute the lack of local action against ICE officials?
There is a level of fear and political performance, with local officials not ready to confront federal authorities directly.
'Unwillingness to even broach the confrontation': Analyst says local and state officials could take more action following Minneapolis ICE shooting
Q: What does the takeover of the FBI investigation into the shooting mean?

Cost-of-living crisis hitting Canadian charities hard this holiday season
