Folks, you're getting a doubleheader rant this week.
That's right.
Shoes is doubly pissed.
First off, fuck March 18.
I have taken one sick day since 2018.
Pardon me, since 2014.
And it was in 2018.
And I totally would have today, except for yesterday was St. Patrick's Day.
And no one would have believed me.
And they would have been like, oh, he's just hung to the tits.
Secondly, fuck the internet.
It is the worst place to find information.
Yeah, we've got the collective knowledge of our entire civilization here.
But I'm trying to take this thing and I'm trying to get it to have a weathered, corroded look.
And so I look and some lady with some ridiculous long-winded blog, the gist of it is put it in salt and vinegar for a day.
I do that.
It comes out fucking shiny.
Look at how shiny that is.
It came out even more shiny than when I bought it.
If you look closely, you can even see exactly, I don't know if it'll still focus.
You can see the exact line right near the end of the stem where the old stuff is and where the water line was.
This is fucking chicanery.
It's the exact opposite of what it said it was going to do.
Fuck the internet.
Was that too?
You're upset because you didn't take the day off because nobody believed you and then and then making this thing look old didn't work?
lies. This is the misinformation and disinformation that we need to fight on the internet, Sean.
Sure, folks. Sure. All right. Mashup 98. The Connor Badd
of the... Oh. Well, I mean, we haven't done a Connor in the last little while, so...
Mikhail Surgachev, maybe. Maybe that'd be helped. Supposedly somewhere, yes, he Polly R.V.
War 98, too, but we're not going to go there.
Who's that? Um, let's start.
start here. Coutts, 2, 764 days, still locked up. Although I was just, I want to pull this up,
Moka Bersergan, he's been covering the, the pretrial. Today, this was earlier today. Earlier today,
today the week-long pretrial continues for the two members of the Coutes for in Lethbridge,
Tony Ollianick, and Chris Carbord are accused of conspiring conspiracy, sorry, to commit murder
on police, and they've been held in remand since February 22.
So there's, it says there's a publication ban in place prevents media from sharing details of the proceedings.
But what I can share is that for the first time the accredited media row is full.
And supporters have filled all five remaining rows in the medium size courtroom.
So there you go.
That's, uh, that's an update on, uh, the Coots 2, uh, that still remain behind.
Uh, Friday, April 5th.
Okay.
For everybody, everybody paying attention who's been along for this journey for 98 of these, uh,
we're getting close to the last night show.
We've been doing these at 9 p.m. on Monday nights now,
twos for how long?
I don't know.
Probably about 40, 50.
Yeah.
And so what we're going to do is starting April 5th.
We're going to have the first mashup.
Daytime show.
We're going to remove the Tuesday from it because obviously it's not going to be happening on Tuesday.
It's going to be on Friday.
But if you're sitting here Monday night watching the live stream, you're going,
this doesn't make any sense.
It's not the, it's not, it'll be here next week.
Yes.
But that'll be the last one.
No, no, two.
Two.
We got two more Monday nights and then we're going to start pushing to Friday.
So if you're a fan of the show, what we want to know, you can start commenting now, or you can text me.
You can do whatever you want to do.
We want to know what time during the day you would like to see it.
Do you want to see a morning show?
No, Earl.
Earl is saying evening boys.
No, we're not doing evening.
We're removing the evenings.
Literally any other time than what you're suggesting are things that we will consider, Earl.
We're going to be doing.
I appreciate the enthusiasm, enthusiasm, but literally any idea other than yours is what we want to go with.
So what we want to know is this morning, like 10 a.m.
Do you want to see the live stream then?
Or are you more of an afternoon, 2 p.m. kind of thing?
You, you, uh, yeah, we realize Jennifer.
Oh, Jennifer, most of us work during the.
day boys.
Uh-huh.
You could flick it on in the background, Jennifer.
We, we know what you're doing.
You're sitting in your office, twiddling your thumbs.
You need a couple laughs.
Just turn it on low.
It's all good.
Girl,
Earl says, no, no, no.
That was a greeting for fuck things.
Okay.
Good evening, Earl.
Good evening, Earl.
My bad.
So, April 5th, we got multiple Mondays coming.
But in a couple weeks' time,
we're going to be moving from the Tuesday mashup to
the mashup, it's going to be on Fridays.
If you're following along on the podcast,
that means in the Friday morning on the Sean Newman podcast,
you're going to wake up to nothing,
which is going to be really odd because we've been rolling Friday content,
and also your Tuesday morning is going to change.
So I realize this is going to be a huge change.
We're going to have some fun with it.
Let us know 10 a.m. 2 p.m.
or a variation that isn't even.
Yeah, something like that.
Yeah, all right.
Okay.
Shall we get on to it?
Mashup 98 to Connor Bredard.
Nobody
Go woke
Go sad
woke people more likely
To be unhappy to's
Anxious and depressed
A new study suggests
This is from Finland
The gender divide was probably most surprising me
Latin and told
Sypost of Finnish
Attitudes
Three out of five women
View woke ideas positively
But only one out of seven men
Okay
So as somebody who lived in Finland
did you find them to be incredibly woke and or incredibly happy?
I thought they were wonderful people, honestly,
but that's like 2011.
You're dodging the questions.
I didn't think they were woke at all.
I don't know.
One of the things that sticks out to Finland about me twos was they had no fast food.
Like where I lived, there was no like, you know, there was no.
So everybody was relatively healthy.
Did everybody drink Fisk there?
I don't know.
I can't remember.
The fish liqueur?
Once again, can't remember.
Okay.
All right.
So we got, by the way, a vote for 2 p.m. please.
And midday, your time would be good for us out east.
And.
I'm waiting for dudes to have something about woke people.
He's reading the comments.
All right.
What's the next headline, Tuesday?
Oh, God.
You realize that I've got a lot of stuff to do now,
now that I'm doing all of the work.
He's doing some of the work.
You'd have to be drunk to believe this.
You might have to be drunk to believe twos as well.
here you go here is uh pablo ragriguez all right on friday at le memfrey in magog
we announced that we are cutting the excise tax rate on brewed beer that's good news for
a craft breweries these local businesses create good jobs and our source of pride in their communities
twos what's wrong with this picture they're cutting it from 4.7% to 2% so you're still getting an
increase on win it's a win the exact same thing we were talking about last
week and they're like they're just trying to rebrand it and just trying to be like hey you know what if
everybody's smiling at a bar and we announced this is it going to go over well well yeah if everybody's
drunk in a bar sure but come on like you're just you're trying to put lipstick on this pig so many
damn times stop stop helping that shouldn't be that funny except i know what it's about here it is
oh that's well this is this is an entry so so so so jan art and
put out a video, I'm jumping around here.
She put out a video saying
Nenshi for Premier
of Alberta, he's responsible,
he knows what he's doing, all these
lovely things from Jan Arden.
And of course, it was on the same post
that Kevin Petitie
put this Jan Arden?
Also, it is
very worthwhile noting. So, for those of you
watching, it says, how about you fuck your eye socket,
Jan Arden, replying to
somebody saying, how about you keep your
opinions yourself and your like-minded friends, Twitter conservatives would be grateful.
hashtag free country, hashtag bacon lover.
I think this was about her lack of vegan options on a fucking flight or some stupid shit.
She's not exactly awesome.
Anyway, it's worth noting that this tweet that Nenshi put up is the third version of that
tweet because he put up the original tweet, just the way it was, forgot to turn comments
off, got ratioed, deleted the tweet, put it up again, got ratioed again, put it up for a third
time with comments off.
So this is such an unpopular thing that that's what it is.
And by the way, it's probably worth noting.
I hadn't planned on this, so give me a quick sec, but I just, I had this idea as, as we're
talking here.
I wonder why he even, why, why he even comments, like puts anything on Twitter?
like why why he just doesn't go somewhere else.
Yeah.
I'm going to turn off all interaction with the message from Jan Ard.
Yeah.
And it's funny because the whole point of it is that Jan Arden is saying,
then she's going to build a party for everybody.
It's for everybody.
Let's turn off comments on this party for everybody.
So polling Canada released this.
Somebody did a study, Palace data polling.
And they looked at the prospective candidates.
how the writings would go
depending on which
NDP candidate won.
And so Nenshi
is by far the best
for the NDP in this
in that they would only lose
seven seats if NNCHI won.
Seven seats would flip to
to UCP if NNCHI
I'm getting what you're saying now.
I'm like, why does it say UCP?
Anthony Gannley would lose the NDP
31 seats,
Stonehouse, 33 seats.
Pan Choli and Hoffman,
39 seats each.
Gil McGowan,
the Alberta Federation of Labor leader.
51 seats.
Would cost them 51 seats.
Hoofta toos.
Hovda.
And that's pretty much all their seats,
actually.
So,
yeah,
I mean,
I've never,
I never thought I say this,
but I hope Gil McGowan wins.
They didn't even analyze mine,
but whatever.
They literally have no choice,
is what you're saying.
And no, no, no, no, bring this back on.
If you look over on the right hand side, it says that 222 minutes is hosting the Tuesday mashup number 98 and 221 people are watching.
For the love of God, can we get one more person?
Just to irritate him.
That's fantastic.
All right.
What do you got for me?
Give arrest arrest.
Peter Andrew Warren was first arrested on February 21st in Stevenston Community Park and charged with two counts of telecommunication.
with a person under 16 through the Snapchat app.
In just over two weeks, Warren allegedly breached his bail condition three times,
which included going to public parks where youth are present,
possessing or consuming alcohol, and failing to report to his bail supervisor.
Yeah.
And then he gets arrested finally for luring a child.
So, yeah.
Moron pedophiles.
Yeah.
And, oh, this person's a menace to society.
let's let him out on bail.
Let's let him out three fucking times.
Come on, people.
Putin, a vote for me, comrade.
Vladimir Putin has won the presidential election in Russia with a whopping 87.8% of the vote,
according to an exit poll by the Russian Public Opinion Research Center.
Well, we know that when people question elections,
they get labeled as far-red extremists,
and I haven't seen any legitimate criticisms of this.
So as far as I can tell, it is every bit as legitimate as the last U.S. presidential election.
I didn't even know there was an election.
I'm like, where have I been living under a rock?
I really was there?
I don't know.
Probably not.
Oh, well, I mean, everybody else was killed off.
So, I mean, you know.
I mean, seriously, like, he's basically the Hillary Clinton of the East Block.
You'll rent nothing and you'll be happy.
Stephen Schier, who ran for her.
Sorry, folks.
If you didn't tune in last week and you're just tuning in tonight and you're wondering why I keep laughing.
I haven't read any of these and on top it off before we started.
What do you haven't read any of these?
Two's hadn't like uploaded the headlines.
The headlines.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
So it's, it's taking my brain a second to grab what he's said to what I'm about to read.
Stephen Scher, who ran hurts for just over two decades after three decades at Goldman Sachs Group Inc.
Has decided to step down.
Two years after three decades.
Sorry.
The rental car company said late Friday in a statement.
Sure, and 59 joined Hertz several months after it emerged from bankruptcy and started making splashy wagers on electric vehicles.
Under new owners, Nighthead Capital Management and Serraeraz Management, the rental company announced plans to order 100,000 vehicles from Tesla, sending the automakers market capitalization soaring past $1 trillion mark at the time.
Hertz announced its EV sell-down plans in January, setting lackluster demand.
costly depreciation and expensive repairs.
The Florida-based company took $245 million charge
and reported its biggest quarterly loss since the pandemic.
So the thing about rental cars is that a big part of the way that they balance the books
is by being able to sell those vehicles,
even though they depreciate a fair bit from when they got them,
a big part of their business is selling the used vehicles.
now does anybody even the most ardent supporters of e vs even want to look at a used eb no do you know why
because in seven years the batteries are no fucking good you got to throw it out and it doesn't
fucking fit in the blue bin shan i wonder what a what a used tesla is worth after it's been
about tree fitty tree fitty and i said damn it you lock this monster i get you
giving you no tree, fitty.
You get out of my electric vehicle car.
This week and the Oilers suck.
You must have had a lot of fun writing that.
Although I feel like my heart breaks for this.
She had to have taken this back, right?
What's she going to get?
What's she going to get?
More fries.
Sarah Jones puts up a picture.
So the people watching can see this.
It says, I know that being at Rogers Arena,
I'm in the land of overpriced food,
but this is the saddest bunch of fries for 79.
799 plus stacks.
And how many,
how many are there?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13.
Like, is there 13 fries there?
But there's about six half fries.
Yeah, that make up, yeah, it doesn't.
This is, this is sad.
Like, you got screwed over.
You basically paying like a buck of stick for these French fries.
Correct.
And so, you know,
there's got to be better.
Not only on top of that,
but you got to sit there and watch a bunch of fucking.
idiots and blue jerseys fall all over themselves getting fucking scored on.
Says a flames fan.
You're just angry.
You're going to be angry for like the next 10 years.
It's fine. It's fine.
It's fine. It's fine. Fine.
Oh, wait.
Buzz me.
Women drivers impending epiphany.
From the CBC, women represent 50% of the drivers on the road and are said to decide the majority of vehicle purchases.
Yet when they get behind the wheel, there's nowhere to put their purse twos.
The male-dominated designers haven't made it a priority,
quoted Sam Furiani.
But the rise of electric vehicles could usher in a better error for purses.
Another reason to buy an electric vehicle.
Laptap bags and all the other belongings we cut around with us in our cars,
that's because with smaller motors and no transmission tunnel,
there's more room for designers to potentially devote to storage,
particularly if consumers demand that they do.
A transmission tunnel?
The transmission tunnel?
Let me just, oh yes, Brandy Weichel wrote this.
The transmission tunnel.
What was the last time you had the transmission tunnel checked on your car, Sean?
Just last week I had the old transmission tunnel checked twos.
Yeah.
Okay, so ladies, I do not want to blow your minds.
So please make sure you're sitting down for this.
And you shouldn't be driving.
Okay?
But also you shouldn't be driving while you're listening to this.
I'm going to blow your mind.
There's a glove box and there's a trunk.
Just because you don't know which buttons open them doesn't mean that they're not there.
And they've been there for a long time.
This is not a newfangled gadget.
This isn't something you can't find on the new Tesla Roadster.
I want to be clear.
This is a well-established piece of automotive machinery.
Don't you think this article was written by somebody out east, right?
Probably.
Okay.
And you're talking to the women who listen to us.
And where do they live?
Randy Weichel is based in Toronto.
And where do most of our listeners live to?
They live out west.
And how many of our women listeners do you think know a few things about cars?
All of them, I imagine.
Right.
So we're actually pissing off our listenership by saying they don't know anything about cars.
but I'm like, but this is written by some of the Oat East.
Sean.
Just saying.
We piss off all of all.
I piss off all of our listeners.
It's just that it was their turn this time.
And Stevie B, by the way, classic, the three O's of Bad Driving.
And then he actually spelled them out, which is awesome.
Old Overreys and Oriental.
And Nadine Ness, whom we love, who lives basically just down the road from where I grew up.
Actually, it was making me laugh.
So in your face, Sean.
All right.
All right, I stand corrected.
He's the nicest lady who's ever listened to this show, and she found it to be funny.
All right.
All right.
Sean loses again.
All right.
Now I've got to go back to the banners.
It's tough for them, folks.
We'll get him working on this banner thing.
You know, it's a new concept for Tuesday.
It's a slow learner.
Gratitude can't be airdropped.
US aid to Gaza, Palestinian activist Ahmed Kuda
exposed the contents of the U.S.
airdrops to the starving population of Gaza,
and he's not at all happy,
basically saying it's worse than what's going on there.
It's like, you know, the genocide's bad enough,
but also, I've got to eat food that I don't like.
What an ungrateful fucking prick?
And he's from Canada, too.
He was talking about how the peanut butter was the only thing that was good in there because it's like the peanut butter back in Canada.
So this Canadian dude who's over there just talking shit about the airdrop of food.
Imagine that.
Like you're in the middle of this war zone and everybody's genociding you.
It's just genocides all over the place.
It's just it's like when you go to a bar and you get a beer with a side of gin.
It's just genocide, genocide, genocide, genocide, all over.
then somebody just gives you food, but it's not the food you want.
And so you're mad.
What an ungrateful fucking prick.
Fuck that guy.
The American Society of Magical Negroes.
You know, if you had written that headline, and I didn't know the article of,
but what are these morons about to do?
Here we go.
Two art house plays are opening across more than thousand screens to less than stellar
results.
A24's critically acclaimed legendary.
be in crime thriller, Love Lies Bleeding. No, I did not write that headline, has the edge in
1362 venues with industry rivals projecting a $2.5 million weekend grows for the Kristen Stewart
Star. Focus features the American Society of Magical Negroes earned much worse reviews and is
faring poorly seeing a little over $1 million from 1147 locations. I watched the preview of this,
and Tews has it pulled up. I'm going to quote,
What is the most dangerous animal on the planet?
One character says.
The next one says, a shark.
And then he talks over him and says,
white people who feel when they feel uncomfortable.
That is the gist of this movie.
Well, I mean, on the bright side now,
literally everyone feels uncomfortable.
It is, you should check out the trailer.
6.9 million views.
And I've got this up.
I've got the extension.
You can get the Chrome extension so that you can still see
how many people have disliked YouTube videos.
So it's fun to go back to that.
Ghostbusters trailer from back in the day.
But this has got to be pretty fucking close.
9.5,000 likes,
129,000 dislikes.
This is the worst fucking thing ever.
Seriously, can you guys just give us a good movie?
You guys could have even had fun with this.
You could have taken this exact same concept and just gotten silly with it.
And it could have been really funny.
But it was like,
if it's anything at all like the trailer,
it's just preachy, unentertaining bullshit.
And how many more times is this going to happen before, you know,
they just lose too much money doing this stuff.
Anyway.
A few more times.
A few more times.
You know,
you remember when we read about the,
it was the Oscars,
right,
the Oscars and how their specifications for how they were going to award,
you know,
the movie of the year and different things,
best motion picture and how they were changing it
so that it had to be more diverse.
and all these different things.
We're just starting to see it play out.
Am I wrong in that?
We're just finally starting to see this.
I don't think that was trying to go for Oscars.
I think it was just trying to be preachy and woke.
And here's the thing.
It's so interesting because you've got Hollywood making all these movies that presumably they want to see.
Like I feel like they would want to see this movie because otherwise, why the fuck would you make it?
Like, they have to think that there's a market for it.
And so all these movies that flop, like that gay rom-com that we talked about, like 80 episodes ago, everything in the MCU, if they're so sure, if everyone in Hollywood is so sure that these are good movies, why the hell isn't every theater in Los Angeles just packed to the nuts?
And then, yeah, sure, every other theater in the world is empty.
but why aren't there that many people watching it in Los Angeles?
It just baffles me.
I'm a loss for words.
Other than I just think we're starting to play it out.
We're starting to see it play out.
I mean,
Tews has been saying this for years.
Frank James,
a man arrested for Tuesday's New York City subway shooting
is a black nationalist and outspoken racist
who rallied against white Jews and Hispanics.
Geez, this is quite the headline that started off the way
I'm reading it. A careful reader of the New York Times could be forgiven for overlooking that.
In nearly 2,000-word article on the attack, James Race is not mentioned. The same is true for the coverage offered by routers.
The Washington Post only mentions James Race in relation to his condemnation of training programs for low-income black use.
The free beacon collected data on nearly 1,100 articles about homicides from six major papers, all written between 2019 to 2021.
Those papers included Chicago Tribune, Los Angeles Times, New York Times, Philadelphia,
inquire San Francisco Chronicle and Minneapolis Star Tribune.
White Offenders race was mentioned in roughly one out of every four articles compared
with one in 17 about black offenders and one in 33 about Hispanic offenders.
Yeah.
So whenever, you know, it's they talked about murders specifically, but it would be interesting
if they looked at mass shootings as well.
Because like I've been saying, how many times on this show?
if ever they don't say what race somebody is,
it's because they're not white.
Because if they're white, it's the first thing.
This white supremacist, this far right white, white,
something or other white, white, white, white.
And if they're not, then it just gets left out in Canada.
And in the States, apparently, it's the same damn thing.
And these people don't realize that there's a whole lot of different white people.
Recall, recall politicians against recall legislation.
The Alberta government says it's reviewing the province's recall legislation after complaints for municipal leaders that it is being used in a way that was not intended.
Alberta Municipalities President and Mayor of Wataskwin, Tyler Gandam, said more oversight is needed to recall petitions.
Quoted, it's been weaponized by members of the community who don't agree with maybe a decision made by a member of council or even counsel as a whole, he said.
It's a distraction and a waste of time.
He said of a recall campaign, adding he believes there should be no due to.
for elections and the counselors and mayors are already held responsible every four years
you're held accountable he said every four years you've got a review of the job you've done
that's not accountability and it also goes on to say that he's facing recall legislation as well
which he is yes yeah so it's interesting like it would be i don't know like if you had robert
Picton on your show and he said, I feel like I was personally targeted by the anti-murder
laws in this country.
The whole fucking point of it is that if you don't like the job that that elected official
is doing, you can get him out in slightly less than half a decade.
I don't know what it is about Robert Picton.
It is coming up everywhere lately.
And once again, there it is for the audience to just grapple.
with old Robert Picton. What was
Piggy, Piggy, piggy parties?
What the heck was it? We were just talking about
it the other day. Regardless,
they had giant parties there. I'm
sidetracked, but you're not wrong.
You're not wrong. The whole part of recall
legislation is so that you can
hold your politicians accountable. And what's
everybody's problem with it right now?
It's almost impossible,
even if they're a complete nutter morons,
Gondack, and you
need so many people that's more
than got them voted in the first
bloody place.
In smaller, you know, RMs and whatnot, it's okay, well, yeah, you need 30 people to sign the
petition. Oh, well, that makes it way too easy. Yeah, but here's the thing is it's not as
though you just ask 30 people and they're going to sign it. You need to find 30 people
who think that they suck at their job enough that they want them out of it. So it's not
just you ask 30 people and 30 people sign it's you need to find 30 people who want that
fucker out of the chair fucking tomorrow. The other part of this in the article,
It said Smith defended her government's plan, but hinted the addition may not be applied to all municipalities.
This is a party, government parties said it may not apply to everyone.
It may just be a pilot project.
It may just be targeted to the larger cities.
This is at this Premier Daniel Smith spoke about her government's plans to allow political parties to be listed alongside candidate names on municipal election ballots.
What is your thoughts on that, too?
Honestly, you're a guy who stared at politics for a lot longer than me.
Why the heck would we want that?
because you don't have people like Nenshi who ran as a fiscal conservative.
And then when you got in, he was like,
ha,
I guess what?
I fucking lied.
I'm going to give the taxi cartels everything they wanted because they supported my campaign.
I'm going to waste a shit ton of money on the ring road.
I am going to have ludicrous budgets for any city project.
But let's just say we, I agree with you on,
then people have to.
It's a double-edged sword too, right?
Yeah, well, I just think, like, can you imagine everybody's UCP?
So now everybody just falls in line with the, like,
are we going to have zero independence from, like, just a one-tier government party?
And, oh, great, it's UCP.
But now, like, why would we do that?
Why can't we just drill down on NACC and be like, this guy's a moron?
And we don't want it.
Conduct didn't say a fucking word about it until the ballots, like the machines were still spinning down.
Yeah, but isn't that more on Calgary voters that they need to pay attention and start holding their politicians who are running for accountability?
Or was she an absolute, like, magician and nobody knew who she was.
Nobody could figure out that she wasn't going to be who she said she was.
People who are watching it knew, but the problem is, is that it's your Democratic.
duty to vote. It's not your
Democratic duty to vote intelligent.
It's not your Democratic duty
to make an informed
vote. And it absolutely fucking should be.
I mean, Calgary's getting what
they... Sorry, Calgary folks.
They're getting what they voted for. Right. And they're not going
to learn their lesson. Let's put NDP so we
know not to vote for. That's the easy way
out of this that causes more problems down the road.
But you have to realize, Sean,
that most people don't
stay up late Monday nights
ranting to the internet
about politics to the point where they're
following this show. Well, wakey, wakey
folks, it's time we got a little more
involved and realized that you were
duped by a moron.
And putting NDP in front of it
shouldn't solve our problem.
It just shouldn't. It kind of will,
but it band-aids
the problem. It doesn't,
it fixes a symptom,
not the cause. Right? I mean,
look at Eastern Canada. They're like,
Well, what do you mean?
Everything's unaffordable now.
What do you mean I can't afford to pay for my heat pump in my house after everything got so expensive because of the carbon tax?
Right.
Justin Trudeau literally said, I will break you fuckers financially with carbon tax upon carbon tax.
And they said, oh, Lord Tunders, my, it's best call.
I'm going to go over that, Justin Trudeau guy, for sure.
And then they voted for him.
And then he makes it expensive for them.
They're like, well, what happened?
Where did we go wrong?
You fucking voted for it.
And then Pollyab's like, oh, we need to cancel the carbon tax.
No, you need to give them all of the fucking carbon tax.
You need to give them every fucking carbon tax they voted for
because that's the only way that they're going to fucking learn their lesson.
You're yelling, dude.
You're yelling.
Welcome to Monday nights, folks.
I'm going to miss these Monday nights when we switch over to Friday.
Friday's going to be great.
If this is twos where he's worked,
a full day and he's under the weather and everything else.
I can just imagine what he's going to be like on a full
night of sleep. Long COVID gets team
colors. Like, are you kidding me?
Here's the CNN Tower. Tonight,
the CN Tower will also be lit teal gray and black for
international long COVID awareness day.
How is that a thing?
By the way?
True. They didn't even think this through.
Like, they're literally just not going to light some of it.
And that's going to be the same as colored black.
Fuck. You can't take these people seriously.
seriously on anything.
Right?
This is the same time,
New York Post, okay?
Here's the New York Post.
The term long COVID should be tossed aside
like a stack of expired N95 masks.
That's according to health experts
in one country who found the symptoms
of those reportedly suffering a year on
weren't any different than your typical virus,
such as the flu.
You don't say.
Government-backed medical researchers in Australia
say it's time to stop using the fear-inducing phrase.
Quoted, we believe it's time to stop using
terms like long COVID.
There you go.
You know what?
I think we should just start calling, you know,
speaking and getting rid of...
Here in Canada, we're lighting up the CN Tower.
There you go.
The N Tower for long COVID.
But if we're going to get rid of inaccurate phrases for things,
rather than calling them immunizations,
we should start calling them the McDavid's,
because it's just ineffective shot after ineffective shot.
Let's have an
unsirious talk about Islamophobia.
All right, MP for Oakville.
I'm going to pull it up to the tweet.
Anita Anand said Islamophobia has no place in Canada,
yet it is sadly a lived experience for many Canadians.
Today and every day we were a farmer commitment
to working with Amira El Jawabi,
Muslim communities around the country to build
communities that are safe for everyone.
Yeah, so that Amira Al-Jabwe,
that's the lady we talked about who got that job.
And then all the tweets came out that, oh, surprise, she's racist and fucking hates Jewish people.
So they don't really have a phobia for Jews.
I think they got to come up with one.
But in the meantime, whatever it is, she's got it.
But also, you know, you keep hearing about this stuff all the time.
And let's have, like, honestly, all right.
So Terak Elnaga, he's been on the mashup, he's been on my show, he's been on your show.
I had literally known the guy for years.
I invited him and a couple other people over to play some poker.
And I was taking care of the dainties, the hors d'oeuvres.
But I didn't really know.
And so I asked him.
I was like, Terek, I feel silly asking this at this point in our friendship.
But do you have any religious dietary considerations?
Because I had no idea.
It didn't matter.
It never came up.
Neither of us really gave a shit about the finer points of it.
It's just we enjoyed hanging out with each other and we spent time together and got to know each other and that was it.
Did it matter what religion anybody is or is not?
No.
No.
And then when it finally came time to be like, okay, well, I'm going to feed this fucker.
I should find out if I'm going to step on any toes, right?
That's what I finally asked.
And it was years down the road.
And I feel like most people around here are more or less the same with a lot of that stuff.
You're way too reasonable, too.
Can't be reasonable.
New Twitter show A Real Lemon.
The ex-CN anchor sent over an astronomical wish list to Elon Musk during contract talks to host a show on the billionaire's social media platform X, including a free Tesla cyber truck, a $5 million upfront payment on top of an $8 million salary, an equity stake in the multination.
billion dollar company and the right to approve any changes in X policy as it relates to news content.
Lemon was expected to air an interview with Musk for next week, debut on episode on X, which it is there,
and had also demanded a private jet flight to Las Vegas, a suite for him and his fiancee,
and the company paid for their day drinking and massages.
Yeah, I mean, at least it didn't ask for anything crazy.
Have you watched it?
Yeah, I watched it.
It was fucking painful.
Did you watch it at all?
I've watched a bunch of clips of it, and I was trying to get through it all.
I got through the first 15, 20 minutes.
I found it fascinating to us.
Fascinating every time, like, CNN collides with somebody where they're trying to, like, put their own, like,
and then Elon Musk is sitting there going back and forth.
I'm like, this is, this is wild.
This is, it's wild.
It was, it was a lot like that Kathy Newman interview with Jordan Peterson.
With Jordan Peterson, where you can just see what they want.
Oh, yeah.
And it's just so clear.
We're going to get them.
Okay.
So what?
You don't think black people and women are competent pilots?
Is that what you're trying to say?
He's like, no, I just don't think we should lower any of the standards for any reason.
Oh, what?
So you know that there aren't a lot of black doctors, right?
Motherfucker.
I'm putting it really simply.
And you're just either intentionally not understanding or too dumb to pick it up.
In either case, I don't think this business partnership is going to.
to work. And no, you can't get
a free fucking cyber truck. What's
great about it is, they literally
stop talks, all right?
Nope. No, whatever
Elon wanted out of them for bringing it over to Twitter.
And then, after
contracts just dissolve,
Lemons still brings
the show over to Twitter
to air it there. I'm like,
yeah. Well, of course, because he's
trying to make more money doing
it. I understand. But he just
broke off talks and thinks Musk is an
idiot, but he's still going to release it on his platform and draw people to X.
Nadine Ness, Terrick and my husband have a bromance going on.
I could totally see that.
I, yeah.
Yeah.
Okay, back to banners.
4H loses funding.
4H Canada says it had to make the difficult decision to lay off seven staff members
following a major cut to the funding it receives from agriculture and agger food Canada.
The move comes after 4H Canada was informed midway through the fiscal 2023, 24-year
that its funding under the federal agra competitiveness program was approved,
but at a significantly lower level than requested and passed funding.
And you know what?
First off, this sucks.
Like, I mean, yeah, you're going to cut 4H.
I don't know, what's it going to be after that 3H?
But seriously, like, it's a great program.
You weren't in it when you were a kid, were you?
Yeah, it's a long.
story. All my siblings were except for me.
Okay. Well, I was in Light Horse and
small motors and I thought it was wonderful. It was
great. And I'm sure there's some kind of
a 4-H program somewhere
around me. I haven't seen or heard anything
from them. So
they're probably not doing a great job of getting the message out
as of late. But also
where's places like Cargill on this?
Louis-Dreyfus. Like all these
uh, Monsanto.
You know, we should bug Vance and be like,
how much does Monsanto help out with FFA and 4H?
My, uh,
niece and nephew do 4H.
It's wonderful.
Well, and a whole bunch of others,
it is wonderful.
It's wonderful.
And all the things to get funding cut,
you're like, 4H, really?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Really?
What?
Sorry, guys.
We spent all the money on a rive can.
Fuck off.
But seriously,
it shouldn't have to come from,
the government.
It should be community-led, but also at the same time, these businesses that work in these
communities, like co-op should be a huge sponsor of it.
Maybe they are.
I don't know.
But it should be a pretty damn easy sell.
Easy.
Easy sell.
Yes.
All right.
I'm scrolling over the comments real quick.
Who cut the funding?
It was the government of Canada.
4-H is one of the best programs over ever, great life skills.
4H is the most wholesome program, but you're right to,
is they should solicit corporate support.
Everyone is paying into 4H to be self-funded.
What the fuck they need funds for?
I'm guessing that what you pay doesn't cover all of the costs.
QPee is getting super cereal.
Now, there's an organization that doesn't really have a presence in rural Canada,
so they probably don't need to support it.
Today, members of Saskatchewan's largest union,
QP, Saskatchewan elected Kent Peterson as their new president.
Quoted, every worker in Saskatchewan has been short change by Scott Moe.
In this year's elections, bigger paychecks are on the ballot, respect is on the ballot,
fixing the health care crisis is on the ballot out of Peterson.
The gig is up for Scott Moe and bad bosses.
We are mobilizing for change and we will win.
QP was founded in 1963.
They've been doing contract negotiations at most every four years.
since then.
In 61 years, that makes 15 different contract negotiations, maybe 16,
depending on which.
The point is, is that these motherfuckers, at this point, the contracts, assuming that they
did a good job of setting them up and not making them unsustainably expensive, he said
very pointedly, this should just be maintenance at this point.
You should just be checking the odd box here and there and maybe helping out the
odd person who had an error on their paycheck.
And that's about it.
That's just about it.
It should be more or less just coasting at this point.
The fact that they need multi-million dollar campaigns, how much do they fucking suck?
Imagine this.
You're paying union dues to an organization that has been advocating for your interest
for the last 61 years and your entire fucking industry is in disarray?
Why the fuck are you still paying those ass hats?
Toronto Police playing two DHS.
In remarks to citizens at the meeting,
a Toronto police,
uh,
uh,
oh boy,
at a city council meeting,
a Toronto police causeful said this,
quoted,
to prevent the possibility of being attacked in your home,
leave your fobs by your front door,
because they're breaking into your homes to steal your car.
They don't want anything else.
The advice now being given by Toronto police isn't what to do
when someone jabs a gun into your ribs in a seat back alley,
but how to avoid being harmed by bad guys in your own home.
And the police advice is make it easy on them that they have no reason to hurt you.
They even started handing out door stops in different neighborhoods, too.
Okay, so the cops have basically said, we can't really stop this.
We're not going to stop it.
They're going to continue breaking into your home, your castle, your safe space.
And it's just going to keep happening.
So you need to learn to live with it.
And the best we can offer you is a little bit of advice so that maybe things go well for you when someone breaks into your fucking house.
People deserve and protect.
People have been putting their fobs in Faraday, Faraday, right?
The cases that were they can't steal the signal and everything and they said, don't do that.
Put them by your front door.
So if they boot it in, they can just grab the keys and go.
Now, I think the guy we need.
Yes. Is this guy okay?
I didn't tell you, but I was like, you need to play this video.
And I want to say, as to the person, we don't know what homeowner, which homeowner shot at him.
I guess they think that they did something wrong, which they did not.
If somebody's breaking it in your house, you're more than welcome to shoot him in Santa Rosa County.
We prefer that you do, actually.
So whoever that was, you're not in trouble.
Come see us.
We have a gun safety class we put on every other Saturday.
And if you take that, you'll shoot a lot better.
and hopefully you'll save taxpayers money.
And I will...
It's so refreshing to see elected officials
talking about saving taxpayers' money.
And the fact he's just like,
we're going to improve your aim
and you're not going to miss next time,
but please come see us.
You're not in trouble.
What kind of government program do you have for crime reduction?
We're going to give you shooting glasses.
All right, Earl Whaley.
Ford actually said you might as well leave the milk
and cookies too. Basically, it's like Christmas for them.
Carbon tax proof less than one
PPM. Keep one thing in mind
when watching seven of the country's ten premiers
battle with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau over the 23%
increasing carbon tax coming on April 1st. The Trudeau
government has no idea whether the carbon tax is
reducing emissions. Back in November, Derek
Hermounen, oh man,
Hermanitz, the Director of General of Economic
Analysis for the Environment and
climate change can to test fight at the common commons environment committee man like what is up
with all these committee names anyways that would we quoted i can't even spit all this jargon
out we could say with some rough analysis that up to one-third potentially of the emissions reductions
that were projecting to 23rd would come from carbon pricing potentially projected no hard facts
environment minister stephen go go bo debarthe conceded the government does not measure the annual
amount of emissions that they're directly reduced
by federal carbon pricing.
It's a bunch of word mumbo jumbo twos, and I can't
even spit it out.
Basically, all they're saying is that
we haven't looked into it. We don't
know. Imagine spending
how many billions of dollars
the collective
economy of Canada puts towards
this fucking carbon tax.
These billions of dollars
go towards it.
And the first logical
question would be
how could we tell if it's being successful or not?
Because then you can tweak it.
You can modify it.
You could step it up.
You could scale it back.
Fuck, maybe it's going to be ineffective
because punitive taxes on goods and services
with inelastic demand
cause negligible reductions in consumption.
But you would want a way to measure it
so that you could judge it going forward.
And they don't even do that.
Now, if it's,
was successful, I'm sure they would measure the fuck out of it.
So what does that tell you?
Trudeau shows up, hung to the tits.
Sophie Trudeau is appearing on the cover of L. Candace.
You skipped ahead.
I skipped ahead.
Did I? What? What are you talking about?
No.
I might have split this into two things, but whatever.
Well, Tews is going to tell us what the heck we're talking about today, folks.
So, Justin Trudeau, I don't have sound, but Sean does.
he said
Justin Trudeau
said druds
floods and droughts
he was talking about
the prevalence of druds
in our current society
and look at this guy's eyes
they're
redder than the fucking liberal flag
he waves
this is insane
this guy looks like a piece of shit
he was I have been there
I have totally been that guy
on occasion
where you just
you know what
You're hanging out in Dave's garage till 6.30 in the morning.
You go in to get more beer and you're like, oh, shit, we've got to go to work.
And then you go, you get the Derek Hen and wake up and come over and come grab you
because he'll be the only guy who's okay to drive.
And then you, hypothetically speak, right?
Okay.
We've all been there.
And this guy, this guy does it at a press conference.
a start to its forest fire season in February this year.
We had one of the worst years for wildfires ever on top of some of the worst years for druds, floods, and droughts in different parts of the country.
Now, I will say, okay, two things.
First off, yeah, honestly, I would say that last year was a really bad year for druds.
I mean, we didn't hear a single fucking thing about them the whole time.
Right. Secondly, apparently it's standard operating procedure in Alberta to start the wildfire warnings in like the start of March.
And so they basically started them like a week or two early by having them in February.
It's just the the optics of it seemed a little bit off because nobody's ever really expected it to.
Not to mention the worst season for forest fires after everybody got charged for starting them.
We talked about this an awful lot.
Sophie Trudeau is very important.
Sophie Trudeau is appearing on the cover of L Canada's April 2024 issue.
She said women shouldn't expect the minimum in what is being interpreted as a veiled swipe at Justin Trudeau by international media.
Yeah, it's about a dick.
She has been making media appearances ahead of her publication of her debut book, closer together, knowing ourselves, loving each other, which will be released on April 23rd, 2024.
I can hardly contain my excitement.
She is going on a global tour promoting this book.
She's got this huge puff piece in Elle magazine, which I guess apparently still exists.
And it's just nauseating.
It goes on at infinitive about how important she is and how serious she takes all this stuff.
And how very recently, like in the last few months, she became some unofficial spokesperson for mental health.
and how she's known right from the start
that First Lady of Canada isn't an official title
but you know she still feels all this responsibility
remember the prayers for Sophie thing
where she wanted like the extra two assistants
and the extra maid and the extra cook or whatever the fuck it was
because she has such a difficult life
okay
and then and then so that was that was her in what
2016, 2017, and now here's her in 2024.
I've known right from the start that it's not an official title.
Bullshit, you totally try to just get a few hundred thousand dollars worth of paid staff annually for your bullshit title.
And now you've got a global tour for this sanctimonious diatribe that you're going to try and, you know, somebody fucking ghost writ for you.
Fuck off.
I'd be willing to bet that there is either, if you did accidentally.
SOTOMI is somehow getting some stupid grant from some fucking Canadian content thing.
Or, or she's just got a backroom deal where Trudeau's like, yeah, so me and Sophie aren't
together yet.
We're going to announce it in a couple of years.
But I kind of need her to get off my ass about some stuff.
So I'll give the dairy cartel a bunch of free butter markups.
If you guys just buy her a trip to fucking Abu Dhabi.
You know, I didn't on the dairy cartel thing.
I didn't realize it until I was watching Hockey Night in Canada the other night.
But milk sponsors the Toronto Maple Leafs.
It's on all their jerseys.
Jersey's, helmets.
One of the two.
Can't remember now.
I was like, oh, interesting.
Presumably, yeah.
Interesting.
Female athletes put the class and action in class action.
16 female athletes have launched a class action lawsuit.
against NCAA over the allowance of a trans-identified male
males into female locker rooms and competitions.
The center of the suit is former UPenn swimmer and trans-identified male Leah Thomas,
who rose to prominence over the 2022 swimming season culminating in a 22 NCAA swimming championship win.
Win in quotation marks.
Asterisk.
He managed to overcome the drag of his penis and testicles in the water.
and was able to be the fastest swimmer
amongst a bunch of women that he vastly outsized.
Yeah, it's really quite an accomplishment.
Yeah, it's very impressive.
He trained so hard in the offseason.
He was literally in the hundreds.
He was in the top hundreds in terms of NCAA swimmers.
And then he decides, I'm a girl now, and he's the best there is.
I could see if LeBron James went and played the NBA and he was the best player.
Okay, sure.
Fair enough, right?
Okay.
Wayne Gretzky scores a few goals on Main-H-R-Rey-on.
All right, I could see that.
Okay, but this stuff, it's, where's your sense of accomplishment?
I know I've said this a bunch of times, but they're fucking pathetic.
Well, here, here's something for...
I'm glad that there's the class action now.
Here's something for the listener around the Lloyd area, Alberta, Saskatchewan.
April 12th in Lloydminster, for the kids' sake, is bringing in April Hutchinson and Linda Blade to talk.
And if you don't know who those two are, they've been on the podcast, but I'll give you just a little background.
April Hutchinson, the power lift from Team Canada, who is banned from competing because of speaking about transgender athletes.
And then Linda Blade, she's a former president of Athletics, Alberta, former Canadian track champion,
and author of unsporting how trans activism and science denial are destroying sport.
And so with the class action lawsuit, always good to highlight what's going on in the world of sports.
And then on top of it, all the insanity that's happening.
And Lloyd's going to have a couple of, I don't know, Linda Blades, an unreal speaker.
And then to top it off, April Hutchinson, her story and what she's been going through is pretty surreal.
That's going to be April 12th in Lloyd Minster.
So that's a Friday night, if anyone is so inclined,
there's going to be more and more information coming out about that.
But it seems very pertinent on what we're staring at here with this one.
I think it's great that these women are actually fighting back about this.
The week that you were gone, you know, like the good episode week.
Yeah, the good episode week when Vince Cotee was in.
Yeah, I remember that one.
We talked about how a dude and chick ended up in the finals in billiards or snooker, whichever one.
And then the woman just forfeited.
So I'm glad that they're finally pushing back on this.
They're punching above their weight and I'm happy for them.
Hands off our pensions.
An open letter to sent to finance minister and deputy prime minister,
Christia Freeland on March 6,
urged the liberals to amend rules governing pension funds
to encourage more Canadian investment.
It has been signed by nearly 100 current and former executives
from Canada's business community.
Quoted, Canada's great companies, true global champions.
These competitive businesses deserve our support,
and we must create many more,
increasing investments in Canada should be a national priority,
reads the letter sponsored by Montreal-based investment management firm,
Leco, Brosseau, and Associates Incorporated.
Roughly 4% of Canadian funds equity investments were allocated domestically
at the end of 2022, down from nearly 28% in 2000.
So what's the whole point of the Canada pension plan?
To make money.
To make money.
and the people who we pay to manage the fund
whose main goal is to make money
and granted their MERs are off the fucking charts
but that's another discussion
their job is to make as much money with that money as possible
and where are they deciding to invest it Sean
anywhere but anywhere but here
right okay
and so our logical response to that
is if we hire some of the best people in the world
obscenely high wages
to make as much money with this as possible,
and they don't see this country as a viable investment.
Correct.
Rather than us changing it,
like, well, what if we just set it up?
Like, what are we going to invest in in Canada?
Are we going to give Bombardier another fucking bailout?
We're going to buy a few fucking solar panels from China that don't fucking work?
Where are we going to go with this?
Are we going to get another arrive can app for $60 million?
dollars is that is that going to be a good good way to spend our pension money i don't think so i don't
think so one bit and yet here is not just you know it's funny you got all these business leaders
and you know telecoms industry there's like three fucking companies that run all the telecoms in
canada and they're like you should invest more in canada well of course if they're going to invest
canada they're going to invest in telecom so you basically got the um the dingoes saying give us more
chickens.
That's basically what this is because it started off with this petition amongst business
owners saying, give us a bunch of free capital.
Right.
And then, and then you've got Christopher Flynn floating it around.
And the funniest thing about this whole thing is that I haven't seen a single person
from the Alberta NDP speaking out against it.
And their main argument against the Alberta pension is that Daniel Smith is going to risk
it all on Sweden.
heart deals and investments locally when it should be globally spread out so that you've got
proper distribution and everything else like that.
This is the exact thing that the NDP has been saying is why they don't support the Alberta
pension plan.
And they're doing it with literally, or they're throwing out the idea of doing it literally
with the Canada pension plan.
And they aren't saying a fucking word about it.
You know, the other thing, first off, that's a good officer.
The second thing I would say, and I haven't got there yet, is I can't remember a different article, I believe, but it said last year Mexico became the United States biggest trading partner surpassing Canada and China for the first time.
And the value of the U.S. trade, Mexico, not Mexican.
Oh, all right, there it is.
The value of the U.S. trade with Mexico in 2023 was $798 billion.
That's $1.1 trillion Canadian surging past America's other two major trading partners.
increase will continue as offshore factories in China and elsewhere relocate to Mexico in order
to cash in on the tariff-free North American free trade arrangement.
So Mexico is winning right now when it comes to where investment is flowing.
It ain't flowing up here.
It's all leaving us and going elsewhere.
What are the three most expensive parts of manufacturing?
Raw materials, power, and people.
Okay?
All of the manufacturing in Ontario.
is union red which makes it artificially expensive and you can find the most far left
economist anywhere and they will tell you no matter how much they love left wing policies they
will tell you that unions artificially inflate labor costs and then you've got a carbon tax
on everything that generates power which makes it artificially expensive so there's your two
main, two of the three main components in manufacturing are made artificially expensive far and above
what the market would bear in Canada. And as a result, Mexico is eating our lunch. Think about it
this way, Sean. Siesta. Okay. The Mexicans have their own fucking word for taking a nap in the afternoon.
And that country is working harder than we are right now. Renewables announcement lacks
surprises. Assuming all renewable development locates on some of Alberta's best land, the percentage
of such agricultural land loss is estimated to be less than 1% by 2041, says the Alberta Utilities
Commission Report released Wednesday. The Commission takes a similar view of concerns that solar and
wind facilities could leave landowners and the public with big bills for reclamation at the end
of their lives. Quoted, compared to some of other forms of industrial development, renewable power
plant projects have well understood and relatively contained reclamation, it says.
The risks associated with groundwater and offsite contamination are generally low.
The report is the first of two, the United Conservative government asked the commission to
produce as part of its inquiry into the province's booming solar and wind power industry.
The release of the reports come shortly after the government removed its six-month
moratorium or on approvals for renewable, new renewable, generating.
generations generation can't can spit it up and it also said that uh what did it say that
the new rules can potentially impact 42 projects valued it over 11 billion and several
thousand jobs this is yes the indp quoting it well yeah it's of course it's going to affect them
that's literally the whole point of this moratorium to come up with new rules so that it does affect
all of the new projects going forward that's literally what they do it's what they set out
to do. That was the whole fucking purpose of this. And the NDP are like, look, they did what they
said they were going to do. Can you believe these assholes? Also, also, just real quick,
I wanted to point out that the big striking realization as far as reclamation goes is that there
really aren't a whole lot of rules involved with it. And so they put a six month moratorium on it
so that they could study and analyze it.
And literally all they had to do was go back and listen to my 222 cents.
The first mega special I did was the green people are hypocritical idiots, mega special.
And I had all that information in it like three years ago.
In case the hundreds of new viewers didn't know this,
twos is a really smart guy and he's really smart and he knows a lot of things.
And he better give himself a pat on the back.
And I'm not sure your head's going to fit in the screen here soon enough.
Carry on.
All right, fine.
I'm just looking at bobble heist.
Bobble heist.
The Pittsburgh Penguins had to cancel their bobblehead promotion
because someone stole the truck that was delivering the bobbleheads of retired player, Yommer, Yager.
Yeah.
Apparently whoever was driving, it just left the keys by the door.
Why the hell would you steer that?
You were stealing for the vehicle.
And then you looked at the back and you're like, I got a bunch of bobbleheads.
What are you going to do with the bobbleheads?
Does it matter?
You've got a lifetime supply of Yomr-Yer Yager bobbleheads.
Like honestly, just you can't always pick the coolest, most expensive heist.
Sometimes you just got to work with what's in front of you.
What was the heist we had about a month ago?
It was taxidermy, wasn't it?
There was the guy who stole the polar bear.
The polar bear.
And it was like the third thing that had gotten stolen from that lodge.
We covered the jewel theft at the Flying J in California.
We talked about the iconic painting of Winston Churchill that got stole from the hotel in
Ottawa, I want to say.
As far as I know, that was never recovered.
And now you got bobbleheads.
Hey, I mean, yeah, I guess we're kind of on a downward trend.
We got to, but I just, whatever we find for heist, we're going to talk about.
They can't all be flashy and sexy, but I would say that this one is definitely awesome
in its own way.
We'll take anyone.
The military, the Canadian military has dropped its aptitude test from the application process
for dozens of jobs and plans to start accepting recruits.
with pre-existing medical conditions,
trial efforts meant to boost
the Canadian Armed Forces,
dismal recruitment numbers.
The Department of National Defense
projected in February that Canada's military
could be short,
15,000 people in both the regular
and reserve forces by the end of the fiscal year.
I can go on, but I think you get the point.
They're going to reduce the way to get into this place
because nobody's joining.
Yeah, so they're just going to be like,
okay, well, maybe we'll take infantry people in wheelchairs,
maybe we'll get pilots with diabetes
because yeah, low blood sugar is not going to be an issue or anything like that.
And I mean, I don't know how much,
how many calories are in a crayon, right?
But these are supposed to be our best and brightest.
And we've turned away those to the point where we're just like,
fuck it.
It doesn't even matter.
We'll take anyone.
Like they tried to genocide all the transgender.
gender people by making them join the armed forces.
And when that didn't work, they're like, okay, well, let's get rid of, let's, this is just
advanced eugenics.
Franken Sheep, a Montana rancher pleaded guilty this week to two felony wildlife crimes,
conspiracy to violate the Lacey Act and substantively violating the Lacey Act as part
of an almost decade long effort to create giant sheep hybrids in the United States to sell
species to captivate hunting facilities.
Quoted, this was an audacious scheme to create massive high.
hybrid sheep species to be sold and hunted as trophies,
said the assistant attorney general, Todd Kim, after,
and then he went on to say, in pursuit of this scheme,
Shoeberth violated international law and the Lacey Act,
both of which protect the viability and health of native populations of animals.
This guy was making giant sheep twos.
He was.
He was making giant fucking ridiculous sheep.
And you know the crazy thing was,
so it was this,
it was this mix of,
you know,
some far-off,
sheep and the local ones.
What was the country he pulled them out of?
So it was Montana, but it was like
Kyrgyzstan.
Kyrgyzstan, that's right.
So he cloned the semen
of the Kyrgyzstan sheep
and then put it in the embryos
of the Montana
big horns, right?
Now, I get
that I like to oversimplify things
sometimes,
If you've already got the semen and you want more, you just, you don't have to clone it.
You could just do whatever the hell you did to that sheep to get the first semen, which obviously you're okay with because you have the semen.
So are you calling him a more?
Are you calling him a morrow?
Was it such a traumatizing experience that some farmer in the middle of nowhere in Montana had to get an advanced genetics degree and learn how to clone semen so that he would never have to do it again?
When Toos gave me this story, I'm like, I wonder where he wants to take this, Franken's sheep, you know?
These giant sheep, he's worried about the ejaculation process.
That's what Toos is concerned about with this evening.
Welcome to the Tuesday mashup.
Neil sticks to his guns.
Two years after the Heart of Gold musician launched a boycott of the streaming music service over vaccine misinformation on Joe Rogan's podcast.
Young says he intends to end his protest and return to the platform.
Young says on his website that the same disinformation podcast features once exclusive to Spotify are now available on various streaming platforms, including those owned by Apple and Amazon.
I cannot just leave Apple and Amazon like I did Spotify because my music would have very little streaming outlet to music lovers at all.
So I have returned to Spotify.
He wrote a message posted Tuesday.
Yeah, I mean, if you don't have your principles, what else do you have?
You got to stand for something.
And so basically he's like, well, Joe Rogan's everywhere at this point.
And so if I boycott it all of them, I'd be fucking broke.
So let's just pretend like this whole thing never happened.
The rot, don't stop.
Canada's Auditor General recently fired and called in police to investigate two employees
who had been privately earning money from government contracts they had not declared.
In a statement to national post this week, the Office of Auditor General said
it is still investigating a third employee that also discovered had contracts with another arm of the federal government
the employee had not disclosed to their employer. The firings, which occurred between September and December last year,
come to light as questions swirl about how a federal public servants company was able to obtain nearly $8 million contract to work on the Arrivecan app.
It also indicates that no federal organization, including the biggest watchdog of the government contracting,
who recently published a scathing report on Rivecan, is immune for.
from employees breaking the code of conduct and potentially law by failing to report all secondary
employment, particularly, particularly government contracts.
These are the people who are tasked with making sure that this kind of thing doesn't
fucking happen and they're the ones doing it.
Is there anyone in Ottawa who's not corrupt as fuck?
For those of you listening and not watching, I have a picture from the Zach Snyder movie
watchman and they're all standing there and it's obviously early.
on in the movie because Dr. Manhattan's still
wearing shorts at that point.
Spoiler alert, you see his dick later
on, and it's blue.
But it says who watches the watchman.
And nobody
is watching our watchman.
And I can't believe this many people are watching
me talk about dicks and ejaculating
sheep.
Me and twos are having a little bit of fun.
We're up to 795 people watching
right now.
And we've...
That's just on the live stream, let alone how many
people are going to tune in later, right?
That's right.
And it's insane.
For people who've been here for a long time,
it's like, we had like, we had like 30 people.
At one point we had like 22.
I'm like, where is everybody?
Why are we even live stream?
We're shadow bad because Tews brings up penises all the time on, you know,
and that I guess isn't allowed on Facebook.
It makes things really hard.
CBC gives $50 million in boners.
I mean bonuses.
What is all your?
fine tonight, Sean.
Just months after CBC announced it would be cutting 800 jobs,
access to information records obtained by the Canadian Taxpayer Federation,
which we have a ton of time for,
shows the Crown Corp handed out $14.9 million in bonuses in 2023,
and since 2015, the CBC has issued $114 million in bonuses.
We're working for the wrong organization, too,
as we probably could have been millionaires by now.
They're the smart people and we're idiots, basically, at this point,
because they laid off 10% of their staff
got an extra $100 million in just taxpayer money
and gave themselves a $14 million pat on the back
for a job well done while literally record low people
watch their fucking stuff.
Correct.
Correct.
Boeing whistleblower blows his top.
stop. This is a wild story. So if you hadn't heard this...
How much of this surprised you, Sean?
I guess fair, but I mean, I still think it's wild that it's like playing out right in front of us.
62-year-old Boeing whistleblower John Barnett found dead in his truck after he didn't show up for a legal interview linked to a case against Boeing.
Burnett worked for Boeing for 32 years and retired in 2017. After retiring, Barnett spoke about Boeing was cutting corners on their airplanes.
Just days before his death, Barnett gave evidence in a lawsuit against Boeing.
Burnett accused Boeing of deliberately fitting substandard parts on their aircraft.
He also accused Boeing of having faulty oxygen system saying one in four breathing masks would not work in an emergency situation.
You may recall that they were having, you know, things come off their plane, twos, and he winds up dead, self-inflicted, self-inflicted, self-inflicted wound, self-inflicted.
Yep, right.
So he has been talking about all of this chicanery, there's the word again, that Boeing has been up to for years, all these issues with manufacturing.
And then he speaks to the Boeing lawyers in a deposition and gets cross-examined by his counsel.
And before the follow-up, so he retires, what, a decade ago, something like that.
and he has been constantly trying to bring this forward.
Okay.
And now all of a sudden, Boeing shit's fallen from the sky like it's grant money in Ottawa.
And he's finally at the forefront of it.
He is on the victory lap, the final lap before the victory lap for all of this work that he's done to try and expose all of the bullshit that Boeing has been up to for years.
And then right before he gives his second deposition, he says,
you know what, I kind of changed my mind.
I'd rather just, and he shoots himself in his car.
A totally normal, reasonable response.
Okay?
And I would just like to show everybody a completely unrelated picture
that has absolutely nothing to do with any of this.
Here is Hillary Clinton in 2016 at an event with Boeing CEO Jim McNerney.
Totally unrelated.
Let's get back to this whole thing.
I was going to say he got Clinton or Hillary.
Yeah, he got Arkansasided.
Deadspin in tailspin.
You may recall, all right?
I'm going to pull it up.
You remember the article about the kid?
We talked about this on here, right?
The NFL needs to speak out against the Kansas City Chiefs fan
and blackface native headdress, right?
And it was a kid.
They purposely got the picture of him from the side
where all you could see was the black on one side of the face.
and not the red on the other.
Right there.
It is the black and red of their team colors.
Okay.
So for the person watching, you could see it.
There's what they put out, right?
Just the side of his face?
It's basically like in the dark night where...
And then there's actually...
In the hospital and you just see half of his head.
And then he finally turns it and, oh, there's the other half of his head.
They had that picture of him.
So it just looked like he was in blackface.
And they intentionally misrepresented it.
Correct.
So sports website Deadspin has been sold and the entire staff laid off.
Anything else?
I just think that that's just, uh,
it should almost be the happy news.
Fuck them.
Fuck all of them.
Two.
You know,
a sentence comes to mind.
A sentence comes to mind.
Fuck around and find out.
That's,
that's kind of.
So,
all right.
Here's the last minute edition, Sean wanted thrown in here.
Me so
Me so harder.
Me so harder.
Yeah, here you go.
Everything you want.
The Department of Canadian Heritage
paid thousand to Toronto pundant
Dylan Horner who disparaged conservatives
in a series of profane TikTok posts
Access to Information Records show.
Shut the F up.
This is exactly why you can't trust conservatives
is one of his things.
This is Blacklock's reporter.
As everybody knows on this show,
we got a ton of time for Hollywood.
and, oh, and Tom, thank you.
I'm spaced on his name for a second.
Black, Locksparter, they're fantastic.
And wouldn't you know where our taxpayers money is going to?
Get old Canadian heritage.
Okay.
Blown it on TikTok videos.
Is Canadian heritage paying podcasters to swear about Canadian politicians?
Because, and then the other question is, is, like, is it a flat rate?
or do you get paid pursuer when it comes to Canadian politicians?
Because I happen to know a guy.
Tuesday is celebrating right now.
I was like,
who could probably use a little bit of that CBC money.
That guy.
I can't even point.
That guy.
That guy would take,
that guy would rack it up real fast.
Yeah.
Like the attorney general on a plane,
you know,
going somewhere.
Like if the attorney general had a baby with the arrive can app,
and then they got wee charities to promote it.
Happy news, dudes, happy news.
What is your happy news?
Do we have happy news?
Oh, you want this, you want this.
Okay, apologies, apologies.
So Dave Muir in Calgary, I don't know if you guys have seen.
He's done a weight loss transformation over the past several years.
He was a big dude, and he decided that enough was enough,
and he wanted to get himself back to fit.
And so he, his daughter and another girl wrote a book about his dad's process.
And so they, they have this book out now, basically.
And so he reached out to me, I don't know, we've talked a little bit.
I've never met him in person, but we've talked a little bit in DMs over the years.
And he was like, hey, man, my daughter just wrote this book.
Would you want to talk about it?
Fuck yeah.
All right.
So a kid wrote a book about her dad's positive experience.
And there it is.
And the only thing missing from it, God damn it, Dave.
I don't know.
Can you buy it on Amazon?
Maybe.
I don't know.
Do you have to go to a store?
I have no idea.
But there's a book.
It exists.
You kid wrote it.
I'm happy for them, even if I have no idea where we can get a copy.
Well, I tell you what.
We'll update next week.
How's that?
Sure.
Yeah, that's pretty, that's, uh, that's pretty cool.
Um, community notes.
What, uh, what do we got going on this week, twos, uh, that people should know about?
Well, April 27th, I feel like there was something going up.
SMP presents the Cornerstone Forum is going to be, uh, in Lloyd Minster on the 27th.
Let me just, let me just pull up, uh, the image for people.
We got, uh, Alex trainer, Tom Luongo, Mikkel Thorough, Curtis Stone, Chris Sain.
Chuck Prodnick and virtual guest Martin Armstrong.
They're all going to be in Lloyd Minster.
On top of all those lovely speakers, you got 222 minutes,
Drew Weatherhead from the Social Disorder.
Well, I'm hopping on this podcast tomorrow, Tuesday.
Layton Gray, the cowboy preacher.
There's going to be a whole host of different people rolling in
that I think it's going to be a fantastic day.
And then I got a group of preachers going to preach Sunday morning.
So I tell you what, we're really going, well, it's going to be an interesting weekend.
How's that?
Hey, I'm looking forward to it.
There was a time where you could have bought a table with me, but somebody else bought it.
Oh, yeah, that worked out well.
You know who else is going to be there?
St. Louis Jack is coming in.
So St. Louis Jack does the editing of the podcast.
He's going to be coming in.
So there's going to be quite the group of people in Lloydminster, April 27th,
Saturday. Tickets are available. If you're interested in that, we're, well, I don't know,
I can't remember the total now. We're over half sold with 40 days to go. So if you're interested,
it's going to be an electric day in Lloydminster. Absolutely. April 20th,
Real Canadian Wrestling is in Erskine Curling Rink. So just outside of Stettler. I've heard that that is a hell
of a good time. April 24th, April 24th, April 12th, the 12th annual PBR in the Marwan Arena, June 22nd,
Aaron Goodvin and Garrett Gregory, also in the Mariner. Are you on sale now? Yes, they are. May 11th,

Society and the clunker dunker.com March 23rd,
2024, ice mini golf burgers and polar prunges.
That's dust.
So if you're wanting to do a little gambling on a vehicle going through the ice,
clunker dunker.com.
And that's a ton of fun.
They marries a bunch of money there.
They're building a community.
I think that's for the community center.
Community plaques.
Yes.
It's going to be,
it's going to have a lot of stuff in it.
Anyway.
Yeah.
So lots of community events.
And yes, I wonder indeed who got Toos table.
We'll have to try and figure that out.
Looking forward to meet you.
Can I get a single seat at Chuck's table, Earl?
You know what's funny?
I've had multiple people reach out about that.
Well, I guess we'll see if Chuck's table sells.
Chuck Pradnik has it.
So is what Earl's asked.
I want to buy Chuck's table.
I know.
Chris Sims reached out to me after listening to us.
I shouldn't probably send me.
and say this. So he's like, you know, if my table doesn't sell, that's, that's totally fine.
And I'm like, Chris, your table's going to sell. You're, you're fantastic. Everybody who sat
with you last time said how much of a hoot you were, uh, it's going to sell. So there's three
tables still up right now to sell Chuck Prodnick, Chris Sims and the cowboy preacher of the latest three to go up.
I've been updating it as more and more people are showing up if you want to buy a table with one
of the speakers. I would have assumed that, that Chris and Chuck would have been the first two to sell.
Well, I thought Chuck for sure. I, in my brain,
I just thought, oh, people are going to want to sit with the military man and hear
his things.
Chris Sims is probably a close second because I'm like, holy crap.
Like that woman, when you sit and chat with her for 20 minutes, your brain explodes.
Oh.
And you're going to get the whole day to do it.
So there you go.
And we got a whole bunch of, like, we had a whole bunch of, are you wanting to go through
some of the comments?
Are you good tonight, Tuesday?
I mean, we've been going almost an hour and a half.
I hit a bunch as we went and we've been going a little bit long.
so yeah um earl are you seriously going to fly in from ontario for this that would be awesome
and uh okay well how about this this one just came up so you guys should get rachel gilmore on
that can be fun possibly one of the most viewed shows this year who the fuck wants to listen to her
can you imagine twos and rachel gilmer she would never come on one i i personally don't think
she'd ever come on i wouldn't be interested in it but that would last six and a half minutes
I think maybe less, probably less.
Probably less.
Yeah.
Folks, thanks for tuning in.
You know, I asked twos before we started.
I said, you think it last week was like a one-off?
We hit what?
350 people?
Was that what it was, twos?
I think it was somewhere in that range.
And I was kind of like, where the heck did that come from?
Because, you know, when we do the show, we were pushing 60 one week.
We're like, oh, we hit 60.
I don't know what we did, right?
Or whatever.
We hit 350.
We were like, oh, so I was saying a twos before we started.
I think we're going to hit it?
Yeah, I don't know.
Maybe there's 150 people tune in tonight.
Next week, let's hit a thousand.
Let's hit a thousand for live stream.
Hey?
Tell two friends.
Tell a couple friends.
Thanks for tuning in, folks.
We're going to get out of here.

We want to hear from you.
That's going to do it for,
this week. Next week,

do with that one?
Probably the great one. Probably.
Until then, twos.
You mean, Mike Fern?
Leave it to a flames fan
to pick the goalie that got it
blasted over his shoulder.
Iconic slap shot from the great one.
No twos. I'm talking about Wayne
Grexky.
Oh, really? Oh, really? That's such a
surprise. I didn't realize that that...
Haunted.
planes, dreams.
You were so happy when Peter Pocklington was a complete nutter moron, broke everything else.
They sold them off.
That destroyed the old, uh, oiler community.
I'm going to stop jibber jabbering.
99 next week.
We're going to hit 1,000.
We're at 824 as we're closing this thing off.
A thousand next week.
Invite a friend or two.
We'll see you then.
All right.
Bye.
