You know what's funny, folks.
Tuse isn't even ready to go tonight.
He needs a few extra seconds, he says.
Not ready for his rant.
But everybody loves the rants, they say.
Not ready for the rest of it.
Oh, here he is.
Oh, maybe he is here.
Are you ready to go, Tuz?
Hey?
I fucking hate Bass Station Cheeseburger.
I don't even want to listen to this rant.
You know, folks?
He puts me on the spot.
Makes me come on, like, let's talk over the music,
which I don't want to be talking over the music, Tuz.
You're wrecking my...
You know what?
I'm not even.
You were going to laugh your ass off.
Mashup 66.
I guess next time he'll be ready to go.
After all the shit I've been through for not reading articles, not being ready to go.
Tews is going to sit here and try and scold me on how much I was going to laugh about his rant.
No, I'm going to wait a week.
That's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to hold up.
Maybe we'll do it in episode 66.5.
Maybe that's what we'll do.
How's Tew's doing on Mashup 66?
The Mario Lemieux.
I had a short work day, and yet it was absolutely full.
I literally, it's just been, I had enough time to eat half a chicken breast at supper, and that was it.
And so it's just mad frenzy.
Got here in time, good to go, but it was pretty tight.
Well, Sean on this side, almost missed it via sleeping because he's been under the weather.
So, you know, all that lake life really did a number on me.
And so, you know, but I was still here on time.
I was still here ready to go.
I was logged in like an hour and a half early, Toos.
I mean, come on.
Two minutes before we went live, you were like, hey, Tuesday,
can we go over every single goddamn article we're going to cover tonight?
I didn't say it like that, folks.
I didn't say it like that.
Now, I'm hoping.
You said, hey, big fella, do you think we could just go over this real quick?
It's kind of hurting my brain and you get the point.
Actually, that actually does sound like.
me folks i'm not gonna i'm not gonna lie um now this week is brought to you by uh renew production
optimization twos would you like would you like a shot at the title would you like a shot
what i like a shot at the title would you like a shot at the title would you're stepping on my
toes right i know i've had to step on your toes all mash up 66 all right we're step the fuck
back renew production optimization based out of rimby alberta these guys have had they've
bit in business for decades.
They do microbial insertions into well formations, and it does things like removal of harmful
chemicals, like H2S, for example, descaling.
They had this beauty of a success story out of a drum heller where the company was having
to pick the pipeline every two to four days.
And then they went in in 2012 and put in their micro, you know, the nutrient addition,
whatever, not the nutrients, but, you know, they put in the,
the yeast and whatnot.
And this thing got so clean that they were able to hear the check valve ticking every time it went over because of how clean this was.
And they got an extra 5 to 10% production out of the well.
And they've only had to work it over once since.
It's just it makes everything run clean like a whistle.
Basically, it's really cool.
In the 80s or something like that, a bunch of Texans discovered these microbes.
when they were cleaning up oil spills in the Gulf of Mexico,
and they realized that they could be useful for down coal applications.
And these are the guys that do it.
And so without having gone and done a very deep dive into it,
I imagine if you're the kind of person who has any sort of petroleum well,
these are probably an interesting.
I'm actually wondering how many people listening are like,
what the hell is who's talking about right now?
But I'm sitting here going like,
I completely get this.
that and that is a success story and I can just imagine the first time they heard the check
fellow they're like what the hell was that they probably I bet you there's a conversation
we had there of like what was that and then they had to figure it out because they'd never heard
it before because of how you know that basically their their pipe was when do you ever hear the check
valve right ever right so there you go that's pretty cool how do people get in contact with
the renew production optimization well they can get a hold of Kevin
and his office number is 403843-3-3-2847,
or they could go to renew.net,
r-en-u-u-net.
Companies always have to find clever ways to spell things.
We should have asked him about that.
What's up with the W?
Well, no, it's like how when companies say like clean,
when they've got clean in the name and it's always with K and two E's,
or when it's right and they say R-I-T-E instead of R-I-G-H-T,
or if their name is clean right,
they do all of it together at the same time.
And I don't know.
I feel like maybe I'm shit talking our sponsor right now.
But anyway, there's been no comments so far.
And we're going to move on for the show.
Mashup 66 is starting out like a banger right now.
Matt DeJong, three out of ten on Tuesdays or Advery.
Don't be hard on them, guys.
Don't be hard on them.
I like it.
I like it.
The only thing it matters is what Renu thinks of it.
know if they're like please never do that again then we will never do that again for all i know
know they're having fun with it i'm having fun with it anyways all right shall we start this sucker
are are you have i thrown you for enough curveballs this week too is that you're just like back
just like you know all right so anyways welcome welcome to the show tonight folks i'm really glad
you could join me sean and we're about to get to our first story so without any further ado
Oh shit.
Scroll down because I had to reset my computer.
Trafficking gets traffic.
Is that where you, that's where we're going?
Yeah, I just, I led you, this is the problem.
Oh, man.
This is interesting, folks.
I was expecting him to have like, you know, traffickers getting trafficked.
Anyways, it's totally Paul Brandt looking like a total badass is what it is.
I saw the picture.
I'm like, oh man.
So, Paul Brandt, the yellow.
I believe it's a flower on his shoulder.
And then they're all wearing them, of course, is not in my city.
That is the, you know, I don't know.
It's the Canadian version of what I interviewed there a week ago, which was Matt Osborne.
And that was Operation Underground Railroad.
Of course, that's talking about the hit now in the movie theater.
Well, now why am I forgetting it?
I've been making fun of twos for so long.
Three out of ten, Sean.
Three out of ten.
Three out of ten.
Three out of ten.
Anyways, so World Day Against Trafficking in persons, it's a little bit of a mouthful,
but I think the idea behind it is, you know, Paul Brandt's going to be over the moon
that they're getting buy-in from the Alberta government to shed a bigger light on what's going on.
Yeah.
And the fact that, you know, it started under, you know, nobody's going to like to hear this
because they got a lot of time to throw him under the bus, but it started under Jason Kenney is where this project started,
and now it's being seen through by Daniel Smith.
Well, it got government recognition from Jason Kenney.
Sure.
I feel like Paul Brandt kind of laid a decades worth of groundwork on this.
Fair, fair, fair.
And he probably has a whole bunch of people in his team, too,
is that laid a decades worth of groundwork into this.
That is a fair statement.
That is a fair statement.
You should get Ashton Coutcher to come on your show sometime and talk about this.
You know, it's funny, I've actually reached out to Ashton Coutcher's team
and have heard nothing back, which probably doesn't surprise anyone,
but certainly could do a little more digging on it,
because for those who don't know,
Ashton Coutcher testified back in like 2016, 2018, 2016, one of the two
in front of the house and Congress or whatever.
Congress, yeah.
And was trying to shut a light on it back then.
Yeah.
So it's been something.
He started a foundation kind of the same along the,
same lines of what Paul Brandt does.
Exactly. Yep, exactly.
Okay.
Here we go.
Cabinet shuffle goes fish without a full deck.
Here's from the Toronto Star.
Bruised egos and bewilderment about Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's revamped front bench
are surfacing in the Liberal caucus as the dust settles on this week's federal cabinet
overhaul.
Some liberal MPs, many of whom spoke to the star on the condition they not be named,
are perplexed and disgruntled by a cabinet.
Trudeau is touted.
as a fresher and more energized governing team that is ready to tackle the country's economic woes.
MP said assembling a strong front bench is something that won't happen until the Prime Minister's inner circle
undergoes a transformation of its own, including the exit of Trudeau's longtime chief of staff, Katie Telford.
We all know that there's a tight circle around the PM.
If you're going to convince Canadians that you're going to think differently and be different,
then you need to have to make changes around that circle as well, the MP said.
Now with speculation about whether Trudeau can,
lead the liberals to a fourth straight election victory,
something not seen in federal politics and generations.
MPs who spoke at the star have not lost hope that it's possible.
Yeah, because they want to keep getting fucking paid.
We've got so many ministers, and some of them are absolute,
like you've got Mary Ng, who you may remember from like eight weeks ago or so,
was the one who was convicted of the Conflict of Interest Act for her glad handing to Amanda Ovaro of like the $40,000.
Hey, we're really good friends.
Here's $40,000.
And then, but you know how the liberals aren't really smart people?
So they've got things like, like Minister of Economic Development and Minister of Finance and Minister of Climate Change and Minister of Addictions.
This is like, you know, people are doing.
doing fundraisers and they're like oh yeah we're going to go do a bike ride for cancer i think cancer's
doing pretty good on its own you probably don't know you need to go ride a bike for them or oh we're
doing a fundraiser for diabetes diabetes can't spend the money anyway don't worry about diabetes
here's here's paulo here's paulo here's paul rodriguez this nail comes from the train tracks
and lack magentic blah blah blah yeah it's passed from a train
railman.
The transport minister has a railroad spike, not a nail.
Yes, that's great.
First off, that's a railroad spike.
Yeah.
And here's the thing is if only there was a safer way to transport petroleum products, okay?
But going back to this whole ministers with stupid names, they don't even think about what they're doing.
They give it the same idiot things like, you know, runs for cancer and this for diabetes, although I will say,
that diabetic chicks are like probably the,
if I could pick the perfect girlfriend,
she would be diabetic before anything else.
Well, here's another one.
Gennasudds.
Ask me why, Sean.
You're killing me here.
Why?
Why?
Too's.
Because right when she's about to get hungry,
she's just going to pass out from little blood sugar.
It's a problem that takes care of itself.
Jenna Suds is currently projected to lose her riding.
Now you know why Trudeau has appointed her to cabinet.
He's trying to raise her profile to save the seat.
This was a tweet that came in from GM Forbes.
There's the predicted CPC.
They're trying to write the ship.
Because there's so much about name brand recognition, right?
It's not just who you are and what job you're doing.
Right?
I mean, look at how hard I had to work just to get that diabetic joke in there, you bastard.
It's not going to his way this week, you know?
It's just not conspiracy.
Conspirate, oh man, conspiracy theorists don't believe in aliens.
The news that government may be in possession of non-human biological matter and UFOs was met with a surprising apathy online.
Do I need to say any more?
Would you care to to?
Well, after being lied to so blatantly and perpetually for literal years.
And still being lied to, twos.
And still being lied to.
They say, hey, you know what?
actually aliens real there's this you can look it up on youtube it's like this two and a half hour
congressional hearing and even got aOC in there mad because she's not the center of attention
and and so they're like yeah we've got we've got non-terrestrial beings and we've got their corpses
we can't confirm that they're aliens but they're non-terrestrial beings and so they fly a hundred
million billion kilometers and then they break down on the side of the road in earth in
New Hampshire or New Mexico or New York
because they always pick
America to land in, which actually
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy covered pretty well.
They basically said it was a bunch of crazy college kid aliens
who like to go to random hick-ass backwards planets
and just buzz the stupidest people they could find
because nobody would ever believe them.
But anyway, now the government's saying, yes, aliens are real.
If they were real, you wouldn't tell us
because we can't believe a goddamn word you use.
say. It's nowhere this conundrum. What are the, like, what does Alex Jones have to say about any of this?
I don't even know. Yeah, I actually, the guy I would look to is like Joe Rogan at this point,
because Joe's been on this, like he's been trying to figure out if aliens are a thing. Like,
go back to when they were going to raid area 51 off of one of his podcast. There was like 200,
some thousand people in a Facebook group. They're all going to go to area 51. And they said,
that's not a good idea. You'll get shot. And Joe Rogan had to be like, whoa people, whoa.
now it's like you know what is it four years later let me give a shit and I'm like well
Joe's got to give a shit he's been on this bandwagon for how long he's gonna run for president
like 20 years and he's basically just gonna win the election be like okay I'm mr.
president and he's gonna go the okay so what's the deal with aliens and we'll write this way sir
and then he'll be like, okay, cool, cool, cool, cool.
And he's going to spark up a joint and be like, okay, I'm out.
I don't even think you'd have to wait 20 years.
He could probably run right now and win the damn thing, to be honest.
That could be wrong on that.
Maid comes in many forms.
Okay, on July afternoon in 2010, Anna Marie Fioco, then 62 underwent surgery to fix a leaky heart valve.
She woke up a paraplegic, the unfortunate victim, a judge would rule seven years later,
of therapeutic accident.
Why am I like this, Anna's husband, Donald McKnight, remembers his wife asking the heart surgeon when she arrived in her wheelchair for the first follow-up appointment three months post-off. Things happened, she was told, according to her family.
Nearly 20 years later, sorry, nearly 20 years after a watershed report estimated that up to 23,750 people experienced an adverse event and later die in Canada's hospitals each year from a preventable errors, mishaps, and clinical misadventures.
sometimes called patient harm in hospitals remain a deadly threat the true scale is unknown
one in 17 hospitalizations in 21 22 roughly 140,000 out of 2.4 million hospital saves
resulted in someone experienced in a harmful event significant enough to require treatment
or prolonged hospital stay according to the canadian institute for health information the
canadian medical back continue the canadian medical protective
Association, a defense fund for doctors and whose membership premiums are heavily, you got it,
subsidized by the taxpayers, the patients themselves, as researchers have noted, CMP lawyers have accused
of pursuing and scorched earth policy is defending doctors accused of negligent medical care,
though the CMP will recommend settlement if faced with hopelessly and defenseable.
Over the last 10 years, the fund has paid $2.29 billion in patient compensation.
Keep in mind that it is very hard to get any kind of accountability from that.
So the fact that they're paying a quarter of a billion dollars a year in compensation,
and you basically have to catch a doctor with a chainsaw in the operating room,
more or less in this country, to get any sort of fault and any sort of a judgment in this.
There was those families that someone in their family had gotten AIDS blood in the 80s.
They just paid out the last of those like five years ago.
Right.
Like this is a next to impossible situation and they're still paying out a quarter billion dollars a year.
So imagine.
When people ask me why I hate our health care system so much, it's this.
It's fucking this.
So now imagine.
all the people trying to sue the pharmaceuticals or the government or the CBC or or for everything
that's went on the last couple years and how long they're going to have to wait and the legal
battle they face.
We're taking that buzzer back.
I'm getting wound up here.
All right.
Most people say I've got the best doctors.
I've got the best nurse.
But there are others who say they killed my mother.
That's me.
Well, I remember it was about episode eight maybe.
We got an argument about this specific thing.
thing. And I remember you telling me that. It's like, well, I don't have a good rebuttal for that,
except they saved my youngest life. And maybe my wife's too. So I don't know. It's not an easy,
well, I mean, fuck twos. They got, how many did I say? You want to hear easy? All right,
she was in the ICU. They ran out of her blood type. And they had more 45 minutes away.
And then somebody made the executive call, like, no, it'll be fine. We got more blood coming in
the morning. We were all there. They didn't even check to see if any of us were matching donors or if they
could just get the blood from 45 minutes away, which is a very common thing to do. It'll be fine.
And then three days later, we pulled the plug. So yeah, this is what, so anybody who wonders
why I have literally nothing good to say about our health care system, it's the fact that they do
shit like that and there is no accountability.
Here's Matt.
Does Canada have a bunch of Dr.
Zoidbergs in the hospital?
Yeah.
Yeah, they do.
Well, how about we go from that
to they think we're stupid?
Yep.
Alberta Premier Daniel Smith says the fact that the
Environment Minister Stephen Gobol continues
to spearhead the federal government's climate agenda
means the minister around him will have to work harder
to achieve a balanced approach.
Quoted the fact that they have we have five cabinet ministers that we're dealing with four of them are reasonable one of them is not Smith told
The house airing Saturday I'm hoping that the four reasonable ones are able to carry the day because we can deal
Because we can have a deal with the federal government that is good for industry good for the environment good for consumers good for the planet
Good for our trading partners and it's a matter of making sure Gibal is not the one who carries the day because he's the one unfortunately who is sending mixed
messages and it's not helpful.
I have another article.
The chief executive,
Sonovus Energy says the federal government's plans to eliminate future fossil fuel subsidies
are little more than political rhetoric.
And then here's the tweet from Stephen Gilmull,
who says,
yesterday we announced the next steps to phase out fossil fuel subsidies.
Today I'm heading to G20, India to further advance our climate goals.
There are none in Canada.
And the closest to anybody comes,
is the NDP talk about capital cost allowances,
which are not the same thing at all as subsidies.
And it's part of just the standard tax code, right?
You find them a gap all over the place.
And it's kind of testament to the fact that the NDP are not a serious party.
So, yeah, he goes, it's like saying, hey, you know what,
we're the minister of keeping you safe from dinosaurs.
And we're killing off all the dinosaurs so that we can.
can keep you safe.
Say, motherfucker.
There haven't been any for years.
This is exactly what he's doing.
120,000 years of pre-boil.
July is likely to be the hottest month
ever, according to just released data
from climate scientists. Ever, twos, ever.
A group of experts
from around the world gathered Wednesday
in a media briefing to report new heat
data for July that suggests
month will break a record.
The average temperature is at least 0.2 degrees Celsius warmer than the previous record-breaking
month of July 2019, and the current projections suggest that the Earth hasn't been in this
hot in approximately 120,000 years.
To say it's, and then it went on to say, to say, in quotes, is it the warmest for the last
100 years or 1,000 or even 10,000 years?
It's a trickier question to answer, Hosten said.
Before 1850, we didn't have these observations, at least not enough to say something
meaningful about the global mean.
that's right in the article anyway so the article says it's the hottest has been in 120,000 years
and also we don't have sufficient data to determine that right and this guy on Twitter named Crum's Body
funniest dude on the whole app he says he just tweeted he's like I wonder how hot it would have
been 120,0001 years ago and it's a fair question it's a fair question I mean it's just you know and then
Here's United Nations.
The era of global warming has ended.
The era of global boiling has arrived.
And so we ratchet it up more.
They're going to run into trouble here because in another 12 years, when the Earth doesn't
die, they're going to have to come up with a new thing.
And it's going to have to be more extreme than warming.
And it's going to have to be more extreme than boiling.
And so, yeah, in 2035, they're going to talk about how we're now entering the phase of
global vaporization or global fusion or.
or global implosion or something like that.
And then, of course, here's the one that everybody loves to share right now.
Temperatures in 2017, all green, all nice, not a big deal.
And then the one from 2022, and it says cooler temps in 2020, but in red to scare you.
And you can just, you can just see the narrative playing out right in front of our eyes.
And on and on we go.
You know, did you see the meme of like, you know, it was like 2020, it was COVID.
2021 it was a vaccine and then 2022.
The one where the guys dangling the thing in front of the hypnotizing face.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I should have brought that one up.
That's a solid one because, I mean, you know, it's just.
Everybody just loves to be scared by the current thing.
The one that we missed in the middle was Ukraine.
Ukraine, that's right.
This started with Cecil the Lion, and it's been one steady thing after, like, one after another.
It was Cecil the Lion, and it was the Harlem Shake videos.
and then there was a gap, and it was the gold or blue dress,
and then we go on to the next thing, and the next thing,
and then people were like, what if we just weaponized Harambe?
And this is what we're in.
This is the age that we're in.
There you go.
Jamie Ingram said the Interior Health, Interior Health in BC killed my mom as well, too, so there you go.
So you're not alone, and I'm, I hesitate.
Well, I shouldn't say I hesitate.
I assume you're not alone.
the numbers would say you're actually quite a quite a group one in 17 one and 17 and that's and they
they talked a lot in that article about how it's probably quite underreported and i would say well i mean
once again look at if you look at our health care system and then you just see what they did
through covid and what underreported everything was and continues to be for a lot of things yeah it's not
It's no leap to think it's underreported all over again.
Oh, I miss Brombie?
Harambe.
I'm guessing it's, yeah.
He's from North Battleford, and they've got a weird accent there.
AI has determined CBC sucks.
So this was Christopher Balkran.
I believe just a podcaster out of Ontario, correct?
Well, I don't know if he's out of Ontario.
There's plenty of Ontario to go around, but that's where he's based.
based at whatever you jackass
CBC wrote
Here's what it says
CBC wrote 1740 articles
About the Freedom Convoy
All which were negative
Chat GPT
AI determined the reporting was filled
With selective bias among other things
So he wrote a long ass letter
To the director of the CBC
Saying hey like you know
Maybe you could not have such bias reporting
And like give a balanced opinion
I thought the letter was good
Because it broke down exactly where
CBC was falling short of journalistic standards, although I think it's probably fair to say that
the bar was intentionally set there. Like they couldn't have just accidentally missed that perfectly,
right? So yeah, AI looked at it and it said, here's where you did it in terms of confirmation
bias, selection bias. Here's where you timed it to coincide. You timed articles to coincide
with government announcements.
It was such an incredibly coordinated,
specific thing that it couldn't,
no reasonable person would have ever thought it was an accident.
No reasonable person does.
AI proved the CBC sucks.
Stupid.
Defund them.
Yes, defund them quicker.
This is a fucking disgrace.
I hesitated for a second.
I don't know why, folks.
Here it is.
The article reads,
I'm going to pull up this one,
Family forced to pay to ship their body of a Marine killed after Pentagon policy change.
Egregious injustice, non-profit stepped up to pay $60,000 to move a Marine Corps.
Sergeant Nicole G's remains to Arlington National Cemetery.
And then here is a picture of her.
I love my job shortly before Sergeant Nicole Lee.
LG was killed in a blast outside Kabul's airport.
The U.S. Marine posted this photo of herself.
if she was 23.
So this was the explosion
during the evacuation
of the occupation of the Afghanistan
situation.
This was
one of those soldiers who died
when Joe Biden
decided that it was no longer politically
expedient to be in Afghanistan
and wanted to get the hell out of there
as soon as possible
and left billions of dollars
of all kinds of guns and tanks
and helicopters.
And the body,
of over a dozen people who signed up to protect the Americans with their lives.
And they're like, oh, fuck it.
They said they might not come home.
Let's make sure it doesn't happen.
And then he said, okay, well, if you want to come home, we only pay them.
They've been off the payroll for two years.
What do you want from us?
This is just...
Well, you don't have enough words to say it, too.
Yeah.
I mean, it's about the most ridiculous thing,
but I should probably use a completely different word there
and if I was, you know, if I was an American,
heck, if this happened to a Canadian soldier, like, I'm pissed off about it
and I'm not American.
But I mean, like the Americans, no doubt, are pissed off about it
because, I mean, how many of them, well, I mean, just the difference.
How many of them even hear about this?
And you don't think so.
Probably a little bit.
I mean, it's not like CNN's covering it, are they?
No, well, CNN.
their viewership is way down.
And then, yeah, yeah, sure, Martyr Made is probably the best podcast in the world.
And I'm saying this on a podcast where I'd love to be able to plug myself and or you.
But Martyr Made is top.
But, I mean, like, he's still nowhere near the kind of attention that something like this deserves.
Yeah.
Anyways.
This is a shitty.
That's just a shitty hit.
Like, yeah, it's just shitty.
Union's going to union.
All right.
Okay.
Let's turn this around.
We're getting.
Let's laugh at stupid people for a while.
Yeah, can we do that?
Can we bring up?
We're pretty somber right now.
The federal government is seeking relief under the Canadian Labor Code to resolve an impasse
after union members of BC ports rejected a mediated tentative agreement.
Federal Labor Minister Seamus Oregon asked the Canada Industrial Relations Board to intervene
on Saturday hours after.
the union announced that its eligible voting members turned down the proposed pact that their
leadership agreed to accept last week. The BCMEA said the median annual income for longshore
workers would have jumped to 162,000 a year starting in the fourth year of the proposed contract
compared with 136,000 in 2022, not including benefits and pensions. The Greater Vancouver Board
of Trade estimates the first work stoppage led to the disruption of 9.5,000,000,000,000
$9 billion worth of goods between the morning of July 1st and the afternoon of July 13th based on a rate of $800 million a day.
I believe, I could be wrong, I believe they put people in jail for that in Ottawa.
And they cited the border crossings and everything else for exactly that.
So if you're unionized, don't worry about it.
We got your cup.
Yeah, you're above the law.
And you really are.
Like, this is insane.
Vancouver is the second worst port in the world in terms of efficiency.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
They are, yeah.
Yeah, they are the second worst port in the world,
which means that they get the second least amount of shit done.
These are the second either laziest inefficient or both longshoremen on the planet.
And their median income in here is $135,000, was it?
136.
What's the medium?
136.
I should have checked that.
And what's the median income of a Canadian?
41,210.
They are more than triple the median income in this fucking country.
They have decided it isn't enough.
They want to make only slightly less than Canadian fucking cabinet ministers in Ottawa to be the second worst in the fucking world.
How out of touch and stupid are these people?
Right.
And then it's funny.
Like I'll tell you how stupid and out of touch they are.
There was a guy on Twitter who is the longshoreman who's complaining because there was some guy at Global had said that half of the longshoremen in Vancouver make over $136,000 a year.
And he was like, well, how could you possibly know that?
Like the median income is $136,000 a year.
That means that half of them make less than that and half of them make more than that.
That's what the median is.
You don't need to get in-depth statistics.
Shit on you.
Shit hogs.
Big dirty shit hogs.
Hey man, I agree with you on this.
And one of the things I forgot to read came out of the Globe of Mail.
And it said Canada, a country relies on moving goods in and out of the country
from more than two-thirds of its GDP has just seen its largest port rank second to last.
No port did well in Canada.
St. John was the top port in the country placed 233rd.
Out of 348, Vancouver ranked 347.
And you're not wrong in anything you said.
I tell you what, that might have been two's best rant in a while, folks.
You've totally redeemed yourself.
I should have just gone with my original rant at the start.
Oh, man.
The left talking points are amazed.
Here we go, okay?
This is, just when you think you've seen it all,
and the Tuesday mashup has given you it all,
we bring up another one, okay?
the emminton and i we're shitting on emminton a ton lately but i mean they just keep giving us gold
no i can't actually the eminent corn maids real quick before you get into that speaking of
specific locations sean and i are going to be looking at the manitoba election this fall
same kind of thing like we did in alberta okay which means we need to start working harder to get more
up to date on manitoba and current events which i'm guessing someone's going to
invent the wheel in the next couple months or something.
So just if you're out there and you see something interesting that's worth talking about,
that's Manitobin, and we would appreciate it if you would send it off to us.
So shoot me a text or hit us up on probably Twitter or what have you.
The Emmington Corn Maze says it will give more thought to future themes to make sure the maze is a welcoming space for everyone.
On Friday, the Mays posted a statement on Facebook expressing regret for any pain this year's RCMP may have caused marginalized communities.
At the time of creating the design, our intentions was not to overlook or downplay the concerns associated with the RCMP.
We recognize that our approach did not adequately take into the account the hurt and the harm that the RCMP's history has caused various communities, including indigenous peoples and people of color.
We acknowledge that such a portrayal may be perceived as insensitive and dismissive of these valid issues.
We are sorry.
Yeah.
Okay, first off, how racist are you to just assume that if you've got something to do with police officers,
that First Nations people are going to be offended by it because of, yeah, okay.
But also, these are the same people who don't want Alberta to get rid of the RCMP.
And the city of Edmonton doesn't have the RCMP.
Most of these people say, keep the RCMP, have local city police,
in their cities.
Okay?
And now you've got this corn maze
that just started off
with an entire regular ass cornfield
and then they just got a horse
to trample down in nice shape
and people are like,
oh, it's offending us.
But they still want you to keep it?
It's not that they
like the RCMP
or don't like the RCMP.
They just knee jerk
push back against
anything anybody with any common sense has to say.
And let's face it,
The police of Canada have lost their goddamn minds for the most part.
What's the next article you have up there, Sean?
I bet you it's interesting.
Are we talking Sarnia?
Yep.
I don't know why I can't pull that up.
Give me a second here, folks.
Here we go.
The Sarnia police are getting justifiably dragged for this picture of less than $200 of groceries.
They're holding a poor person for bailover.
Every time you see a picture like this, ask how much money in policing it costs.
and jail someone over groceries that they are now getting going in the trash and then here's what the sarnia police had tweeted strike three you were going for uh you were going for bail a female was arrested today after she was caught for the third time this month stealing from the same retail store she was held for bail to prevent her from continuing to reoffend well at least they're finally holding some people for bail Sean okay and you look at that you look at that it's all just it's all regular ass groceries and um sex loo
back up.
Yeah, you got a whole bunch of regular groceries.
Oh, yeah.
And then on the left, you got the sex lube.
So, I mean, here's the thing.
We're all getting fucked by the government.
I don't blame her for any of this.
There's a lot.
I didn't even think to look through it.
I saw my eyes immediately just go to all the food.
And I don't even look on the on the left hand side.
She's stealing president's choice brand stuff.
Like, it's not even like she's going after.
the fancy frozen lasanas or the fancy canned sauces.
She's getting,
like she's even got the no-name Brad Cottage cheese back there.
That's good.
That's good.
Hey,
you know what?
I get the fact that I'm going to rob you guys,
but I feel bad about it.
So I'm just going to take the cheap stuff.
Oh, man.
Okay.
The NDP are not a serious party.
Are not a serious party.
Do you want to start with?
Well,
with this one. What the heck? Here's
Justin Trudeau out
making a fool of himself again in Toronto
today in front of Metro.
I can
Sean, did you ever notice that
union workers look exactly the way
you would imagine them to be? Leave that
up, leave that up, leave that up.
And obviously
this is a fairly new protest,
whichever one it is.
because you could tell that people in that picture
have not been doing any sort of walking,
let alone along a picket line in a while.
This is what you would call a high-calorie human.
And nobody can get mad at me for that
because that's the woke term.
That's the woke term.
Oh, man.
You know, actually before I go to the comments,
I'm just going to say that's what I tune in
for the Tuesday mashup for right there, you know.
Hi, Guy. Anyways.
Zane from Southgate said it would be great to have Jocelyn from Sundance Construction on from
Antelago election night.
No, it was the first name we threw out when we started talking about it.
Jocelyn's a total badass. Who are we kidding?
Like that lady is just went to, I should reach out to her about.
Who told you you should have her on your show?
I believe it would have been twos.
I believe.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
And here's Macko and Mass Outside still, wow, must be scary pictures.
kidding.
You know what?
I feel like if I breed the same air as some of those people,
putting a mask on would keep me from accidentally inhaling chicken wings.
Okay, here's some of the other things that the NDP put out, okay?
You work hard to pay the bills and put a roof over your head.
The conservatives don't understand this.
Instead, they mock the homes of hard work at Canadians.
New Democrats will always stand with you to make your life more affordable.
Of course, they're talking about the shack reference.
Yeah.
And how they represent the really, really hardworking people.
The people who work hard.
And then you shouldn't have to work over 40.
This is the same guy in both videos, by the way.
You shouldn't work hard.
Oh, man, I can't even read it.
You shouldn't have to work over 40 plus hours a week just to stay afloat.
Unlike the conservatives, we're fighting and make sure you have wages that pay the bills
and services that make your life better.
When the new Democrats say we have your back,
We mean it.
We know that you work hard,
but you also shouldn't have to work full time.
The NDP are not a serious party, Sean.
Although I will say this guy,
is Matthew Green, I think his name is.
I can't remember exactly.
A few weeks ago,
when we were talking about
how there was the one lone NDP person
on that committee who voted against
increasing the lobbying limits,
it was that guy.
So in his defense,
you know, he does,
you know, the light shining up
a dog's butt hole every once in a while.
And this is an old one, but I just, I saw
it and it fit in perfectly with this.
And for the people
listening, it's a, it's a picture
of a kid crying and it says Starbucks,
Starbucks employee breaks down
in tears after being scheduled to work eight hours.
Yep.
Tuse, what was your first job?
I worked for my folks.
So it was swinging a hammer.
building a much
wrought iron stuff
or you could say
mowing lawns
first actual job
working for
the man was at the
Willows golf course
I worked on a pressure truck
and I believe that was your first job
yeah well I mean it depends
where yeah I was a swamper
and I got paid
I believe it was $10 an hour
and I was
Christ.
I was over the moon about it.
I was like, this is the greatest thing ever.
Bought a stereo with my first 500 bucks or whatever I got.
I was over the moon.
My wife parents thought I was blowing my money.
I was like, I don't care.
I'm like 16 years old.
I've never had a job.
Well, I'd had jobs before that, but it was like working on the farm.
10 bucks an hour at 16.
She was a big day back then.
She was a big day.
Yeah.
That was oil field money, folks.
Oilfield.
I just drove by in Arby's here in Minnesota.
Wages is starting as high as $17 an hour for Arby.
That's US.
That's like $30 an hour Canadian.
Do I just give up on the mashup and just sign on and flip in some burgers and call it a day?
I don't know.
I know a guy.
I know a guy at an Arby's.
He's a beauty.
I'll introduce you.
You'll introduce me?
Yeah.
Dave will like that.
I thought we weren't going to talk about this girl anymore.
This is the last time we talked about the former journalist Rachel Gilmore.
This was it.
I want to make sure that everybody realizes if you go back to 65, you said we're not even going to talk about it.
it. And yet, here we are, twos. Here we are.
This one crossed a few fucking lines.
All right. Well, let's start here.
And so, but I mean, the thing about it was, was last week, it was I don't really want to give this person notoriety.
But is it that they're this out of touch with rural life or is it that they're just trying to farm for hate clicks, right?
Fair.
And so now her good friend.
Erica, I feel.
I've had my fill of Erica I-Fill.
She says, all this for a dog, question mark.
And underneath it, it shows Toronto Police have gathered outside of the emergency vet clinic on Yonge Street,
ahead of a procession for Bingo, the police dog who was shot and killed in the line of duty.
His partner, Sergeant Brandon Smith, is here with family.
And then Erica, I-Fill put underneath that, fuck Bingo, guess he ran out of luck.
And then Rachel Gilmore went,
Erica is far from a complete idiot.
She's one of the kindest, bravest, and most supportive people I've been lucky to call a friend.
She's a fearless and critiquing systemic issues that make a lot of white people uncomfortable.
The world is a better place because of her.
And then she went on to say, look, I love dogs.
And then the next one is, anyways, yeah, you get the point.
Yeah.
So here's the thing is if people are mad at you because you're gloating about a dog that gets fucking shot and killed,
It's not because you're black or Mexican or Zimbabwean or Montcatanian.
It's because you're an asshole.
Okay?
That's it.
And if I was to glorify the shooting of a dog and don't get me wrong, I've got a, you know, middle-aged puppy.
And sometimes I want to take that fucking thing to the train station, right?
But if I ever legit fucking revel in the shooting of a dog,
I would expect you to call me an absolute,
you name it, right?
Everybody's friends,
but you should be able to call your friends out on their bullshit.
And that was just about the shittiest take I have seen on Twitter
since that idiot bitch was glad about the humble Broncos
because they were white.
Who was that?
Oh, let's go down a fucking rabbit.
There was nobody that's celebrate.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, my God.
People have no end of just like...
Oh, okay.
Well, anyways, we weren't going to talk about Rachel Gilmore,
but then, of course, the whole dog thing comes up.
And I mean, a police service dog to top it off.
You don't think they're going to honor...
Like, man, a lie.
It's just...
It's just ridiculous, too, but you're telling me humble Broncos.
Brace yourself.
You're about to get hit with...
the fucking truth bomb all right can you can you zoom it in for me just a smidge i don't know why my
eyes are so bad today but they are okay this is a lot of money because the go fund we got past four
million yeah and then she says i'm trying not to get cynical about what is totally devastating tragedy
but the maleness the youthfulness and the whiteness of the victims are of course playing a significant
Oh.
Man, what a stupid thing to say.
Can I, like, I mean, I don't even know why I have to explain this, but I'm going to go anyways.
The reason why the GoFundMe goes out of the world is because everybody in their dog stopped.
Because hockey, you know, we go back to the, we go back to the U.S. Marine that died.
And what I was trying to get across with the U.S. is very patriotic.
And all of them have somewhere in their family, including.
including my in-laws that have served in the US military.
So I just assume that would piss off the whole country.
Like, what the hell are we doing?
Get our falling back over here and come on.
Have some.
Anyways, get the point.
Be a piece of fucking human.
Thank you.
When it comes to Canada,
hockey is the one thing that is just like, you know,
is Canadian.
That's what we do.
Yep.
And so when that happened,
everybody's got a family member that's ridden the bus
across forever and ever playing hockey
and ever, that doesn't mean, like,
and then it's just pointed out,
you're just like, fuck.
Can we just slams?
Can we slam somebody's head off the keyboard already
and be like, let's be an asshole about it.
Yeah, like, fuck, smart and up.
Like, just, uh,
the world just finds no,
no way of pissing me off.
Nora Loretta,
Lorado.
Is that her name?
Yeah, that's the one from,
uh, that's the one from the humble tweet.
But anyways, this was,
This was just a bridge too far, and it's just the last time that we're ever going to mention former journalist Rachel Gilmore.
Nora Loretta is a journalist. Am I right on that? Jamie Ingram, are you saying that Norrell was a journalist? Are we, but am I reading that right?
I don't know. I think she's kind of in the same realm as that Dale guy where she's just trying to find relevance and just just kind of, I don't know, worshipping at the feet of the leg.
liberals hoping that it'll land her some kind of a good gig.
Maybe she already got it.
I'm not sure.
I don't really have much time for people like that.
I don't really care enough to follow them that closely.
Loretto.
Well, now, now he's saying yes.
And global as well.
All right.
So she's not good.
She just jumps around because she sucks.
Believe it or not.
Anyway, okay, let's just find some happy things.
news here. Let's just skip ahead to the happy news. Or it just, well, I'm, oh my God, this is just a dark
episode. What is going on? Tews is never reading the start of this thing ever again. It's like,
we've got into the dark universe here. Anyways, I can't have goatees. Oh, God. My, my brain hurts
right now. Okay, fair enough. Can I hit the buzzer already? Oh, my goodness. That would be nice.
I can't even find the buzzer. I'm so rattled right now. Okay, how about the BC man plays the Chinese
police station side of front of the RCP detachment.
Seeing as we're talking about the RCMP,
a little while ago, you want to, you want to bring that up?
Okay, let's bring up a happy moment here, folks.
There's a happy moment.
Okay, we've got other happy news later on,
but here's a happy moment for you right now.
This is hilarious.
Now let's get, now let's go to UN.
Okay, UN gets mad at Singapore for acting like the UN.
Singapore conducted its first execution of a woman in 19 years on Friday,
and it's second hanging in this week for drug trafficking despite calls for the city-state
to cease capital punishment for drug-related crimes.
Sarjuji Di Jami 45 was sentenced to death in 2018 for trafficking about 31 grams of
diomorphine or pure heroin.
The Central Nicarics Bureau of Singapore said,
it said the amount was sufficient to feed the addiction of about 370 abusers for a week.
Singapore's laws mandate the death penalty for anyone convicted of trafficking more than 500,
grams of cannabis and 15 grams of heroin.
Okay, so the tweet itself said human rights groups from CBC who said that they were going
to stop tweeting on Twitter, but couldn't help themselves.
Human rights groups, international activists and the United Nations have urged Singapore
to halt executions for drug offenses and say there is increasing evidence.
It is ineffective as a deterrent.
I ask you this, CBC News.
How many fucking repeat offenders do you have in Singapore?
All right.
also there's a whole lot of people in the u.n who kill like there's a whole lot of countries in the
u.n where they still kill folks for being gay would you would you like would you like this this list
here's here's a list of the united nations uh peace dignity and quality on a healthy planet you got
here's all the member states yeah yeah yeah so it goes through it's pretty much all of them
but go on to the next tab the wikipedia one capital punishments for homosexuality
And you can find all these countries in the UN member states.
So they kill folks for being gay.
And I don't know.
Is it a deterrent?
They don't have, well, I don't know, unless somebody else is a homosexual slash necrophiliac,
you're not really going to have repeat offenders.
Okay.
The dark side of woke bullshit.
All right.
I feel like, you know, Budweiser's always going to find a way to come back on the mashup.
I mean, for the next five years, we've got to find a way, maybe.
Maybe I'm wrong.
Beer maker Anheiser-Busch said Wednesday that it'll layoff positions across its U.S. corporate staff.
In a statement on Anheuser-Busch spokesperson said that restructuring will simplify and reduce layers within its organization,
the layoffs will not include frontline staffs such as brewery and warehouse staff drivers and field sales, among others.
The job eliminates represent less than 2% of the Anheuser-Busch U.S. employment employee population, the statement said.
The company's website said that it employs more than 19,000 employees nationwide.
two percent of that figure would be a number around 380 positions.
Of course, this is the continuing saga of Dylan Mulvaney.
So here's the thing people don't realize.
Like, yeah, you're going to make a bad decision and you're going to try and when you're a big company,
like it's if you're, if you're a mom and pop shop, go as woke as you want.
Right?
But that whole go woke, go broke thing, if you're a big company, it's not just,
you that goes broke it's literally hundreds of people who also fall under that umbrella and now these
people are going home to their wives or their husbands or whoever else and saying yeah i got laid off today why
because our marketing team decided to fucking go woke right and now we're not going to be able to make
our mortgage payments so here's the thing when you're making these monumentally bad decisions
you really need to consider the ripple effects of the ramifications, right?
Because this isn't just the fact that you went on indefinite leave afterwards.
These people no longer have fucking jobs.
Yeah, I would agree.
I would hope, you know, I think it was a Zubi tweet.
I can't remember.
Was that today?
Was it yesterday?
It doesn't matter.
Where he basically said, I'm tired of people emailing me saying, you know, I agree 100%
with you, but I can't speak out because of this, this.
And he's like, you know, basically, motherfucker,
the reason we're in this situation is because you won't speak out.
It's because you don't speak out.
Right.
So one of the things that people can take from the Anheuser-Busch thing is, yeah,
people are losing their jobs.
But people also sat along and went with Dillam-Milvaney and a whole bunch of other things.
Now, that's not the frontline sales guy or the frontline brewery guy,
but there are people in the corporate side of this that we're sitting there going like,
this is, this is stupid.
And if you don't voice your opinion, this is where you land up.
I mean, okay, it's always in the last place you look, holy Mackinac, 66.
Here I thought Mario Lemieux was going to go in, split the D, walk in, toss her, you know, around the, I think it was it Casey in that, folks?
Anyways, it doesn't matter.
Yeah, well, I mean, in Mario Lemieux tradition, we had a real promising start that kind of got derailed by medical issues.
Okay, here it is.
A mother dolphin, I'm just going to pull this up, we'll see if I can get it to play here.
I don't really don't need the sound on that sucker.
Here, this is what went on.
Anyways, a mother dolphin and her calf were finally freed after being trapped in a Louisiana pond for an astonishing two years.
Wildlife officials believe the mother dolphin and her baby were pushed into the pond system near Grand Isle, Louisiana during Hurricane Ida in late August 2021.
So, I mean, how crazy is this?
You just go hanging around, you go look at a slew, and there's a fucking dolphin there?
And there's a dolphin?
Like so long and thanks for all the free fish.
Right?
It's, uh, I just,
it's, it's interesting how historically this is how you get some species that show up in different weird places across the world.
It's because they get blown in or, you know, like there was the, um, the, the elephants on the Greek islands.
And, you know, like, you, cases of insular gigantism and dwarfs.
are from things like this, right?
Where animals just show up,
they get some weird weather thing,
puts them in a completely different
place and they maybe last for a little while.
Maybe they don't. Right?
I mean, but,
but how cool is it that somebody was just like,
why is there a dolphin in this fucking slew?
Why is there a dolphin in this slew?
Right?
You know, I got told,
you think we should talk to somebody about this?
Do they know there's a dolphin in this slew?
I got told in Lloyd Minster.
There is a, I don't know, I can't remember folks, maybe I'm getting this wrong.
But in Budmiller Park, which is the nice beautiful park in Lloyd Minster,
living there is a giant snake.
Like, and I can't remember if it's red or if it's just a giant snake that got away from somebody or whatever.
And like, I guess people spot it from time to time.
I'm like, me personally, I'm like, can somebody please do something about that if that's true?
Or maybe that's an old folks tale.
But I'm like, ho.
Is it like, here's the thing is,
The biggest thing you'll find around Lloyd is garter snakes.
So when people say it's a giant snake,
is it something that's like two feet long or 20 feet long?
Well, I tell you what,
somebody listening to this is going to heard the rumor too,
and I'm going to hear all about it, I assume.
I don't know if it's a true story or not.
It's basically the local Bigfoot.
That's correct.
That's correct.
I don't know why we couldn't have Bigfoot.
We had to have a giant snake.
Anyways, mashup 66 in the books.
We labored across the finish line.
We will be carrying on to mash up 66.5 after hours on Patreon.
And so if you're so inclined, look it up, show notes, Patreon.
Come on, see the Sean Newman podcast.
And we're going to talk about today's episode on there tonight.
Yeah, there's a bit of deconstruct, right?
So this is the third week we've done this.
The first week we did kind of just an additional,
and we could have easily, we could have done a double header this week.
there was a lot of stuff we didn't talk about.
I actually had an article from Manitoba we didn't talk about, right?
And then what did we do last week?
It was, um, we, we, we picked videos off at Twitter.
Right, right.
We tried to find the craziest thing on Twitter we could find and talk about that.
And it ended up being something.
And, and this week, it's just going to be a debrief of the mashup, which basically is
going to start with Sean being like, what in the fuck was that twos?
Tire fire, tire fire.
Anyways, 66.
in the books to all you lovely listeners we'll catch up to you next week let us know
about Manitoba let us know about some giant snake in Bud Miller and you know what
if there's I said this and then now I got I'm gonna give a shout out to Caleb
Taves Renegade Acres on Wednesdays now I have a spot at a company by a spot
and add spot and start to do what we talked about doing on the matchup where like if
you got a community event going on let us know because we'll talk about it right
Anyway, so now, now, like, Slim got with, with Parwain, and their, you know, their concert coming up in, what is it, September.
They got this, but then I'm like, well, now you can.
Well, they got Wayne Steel and Gord Bamford.
Right.
Well, anyways, on and on it went, because now on Wednesdays, there's a specific spot bought for that.
So if you want me and twos to talk about anything, or you have a community event coming up that you think needs to grab a little bit.
of talking around, or if you're going to try and assemble the largest dino costume gathering in the world,
please let us know, and we'll help support it.
Or if you found a fucking dolphin, I'd love to be there.
Fair enough.
Two's.
We'll see you on the other side, buddy.
