  • 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!

Q: What happens if Prime Minister Carney doesn't return with any tangible results?
There will be significant political backlash and pressure from the opposition for not meeting expectations.
