Apologies for the late episode - both Dan and Riley have been on tour, but we've got this one for you (recorded a while back). Contained herein: ideas for new recipes, Nazi statue watch, and the Tory leader "uniting the country" with a very thin gruel of vibes alone.

Chuka Ejeckam joins Dan and Riley to discuss "The Freeland Doctrine," friendshoring, and the mysterious professor of mealtimes.

Dan and Riley remember Canadian politics keeps happening. Queen's Dead, Pierre's in Charge, and our allies abroad are as cool headed as ever.

Riley and Dan were in the Trashfuture studios last week, and we spoke to certified indie superfan and sometime producer Nate Bethea about synthesisers, what it means to like music others find offputting, and (according to Riley) definitely making up at least half the band names.

Well, the mad lad did it: Canada's oldest young conservative Pierre Poilievre is head of the Conservative Party. We talk about what makes him a particular threat to Canada's comfortable governing consensus, which is essentially that he has matched the energy and madness of his crazy ideas with the permanent grinding crisis in which Canada is stuck.
PS: Sorry about late episodes, everyone! Riley, Dan, and Milo (who produces this show) have all been away, and Riley's internet has been down. But we're back in regular, fine form!

Dan and Riley are recording together in Montreal for the first time (temporally) and the second time (as far as you know). We discuss the emerging scene around the happening "Donald Duck Tavern Quadrilateral," and how all of Montreal's coolest people have become Orthodox Catholics. Additionally, we take in the newest phenomenon in Canadian politics sure to sweep the nation: Centre-Ice Conservatism.

Note: this one is mentioned as the premium but we decided to make it a free one!
Peter Korotaev (known by an alias on previous episodes, while he was in Kyiv) rejoins us to talk about the strange war economy that Ukraine has found itself with. Heavily indebted, heavily privatised, and *still* citing the disproven/disgraced "Growth in a Time of Debt" hypothesis.

The War Nerd is back to discuss why Canada can't seem to learn to stop buying the F35, and why the boring bureaucracy of military spending bloat is the "banality" to the "evil" of the world bestriding colossus.

Riley and Dan speak about the history and politics of fertiliser with Matt Huber, author of Climate Change as Class War.
But first, we review the strange world of the Pacific Northwest that Dan saw on tour. Long story short, a lot more shantytown and a lot more of the wreckage of a scooter based economy.

Dan is off being a rock star, so Riley and Tech Won't Save Us's Paris Marx take a look at That Rogers Outage and question how "more competition" could have stopped this, but first - a few developments in the mad world of self driving cars, a concept that only makes sense when you assume money is free forever.

With Bitcoin done, Canada's putative conservative leader becomes absorbed by the forest, and emerges as an esoteric log-o-crat. Also, we look at the emergence of "UltraFast" delivery in Canada - a business model that never made any money or sense anywhere else... but that we didn't want to be left out of. Finally, we review some expert testimony on Eastern Europe that the NDP's most prominent theatre fan was not so keen on. Forget it Jake, it's Starship Troopers.

It's a Canada Day Bonus! Dan and Riley talk about Canada's cheerleading of further escalation in Eastern Europe, as well as going back to the Trucker Protests, who have now identified some war heroes who are going to go and tactically cry at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Ottawa.

Dan and Riley reflect on what the crypto crash means for Canadian bitcoin maxi's like Pierre Poilievre, as well as other scurrilous programmes designed to part musicians from their worthless fiat currency and art in exchange for valuable database entries. Also, we look at a list of Bad Tweeters assembled for the purposes of national security.

On this rare Riley-less episode Dan is joined by Michael Barclay, Arlen Thompson and Tim Kingsbury to discuss Michaels new book on the rise (and rise!) of Canadian Indie Rock 2000-2006. Why do these bands have so many members? Did Fugazi brain poison a generation into self sabotage? Are the rents too damn high to facilitate another scene? All this and more as we survey The Half Decade When Canada Was Cool*
*Canada was not and never will be cool

It's in the title, folks - as the Ontario election comes to a close, Dan and Riley reflect on the musical highlights of the campaign, specifically the Doug Ford campaign song Get It Done. Then, we go West to investigate police forces in BC's lower mainland taking a turn for the Salo.

Bye bye to the very nasty Jason Kenney! Sorry the base of hooting suburbanite fascists you created slipped out of your control! Bad luck! Don't let the door hit you on the way out! Dan and Riley reflect on the life and career of Alberta's former premier, and how he's part of a large machine that ratchets politics to the right by living in a fantasy world of ice cream for dinner. Also, we look at developments in Ukraine.

Riley, Dan, and Liv all got nickel poisoning from our deep dive into Pierre Poilievre's long, strange history on youtube. Come for the giant novelty nickel, stay for the giant novelty penny.
