We're experiencing some technical difficulty. For some reason, the audio is coming through my speakers and not my headphones. So maybe we just kill this so we don't get an echo. But these things, God damn it, people, they get smaller and smaller every year. And then we end up putting like four, five of them in every kid's pillowcase or jack-a-lantern box or whatever. because they're so small that they're practically pointless. Let's have some decent-sized candy. I mean, I get the fact that going to the full bars is a bit of a stretch,

but these things are just absolutely, like, look at this. Look at this. There's just nothing there, right? And it's not just one bar. Reese's? Same thing. There's the tiniest thing ever. Oh, there's a crispy crunch.

You can probably hear it. There's the Reese's. What is this? Candy for ants. This goddamn shrinkflation is hitting everybody everywhere, including the Halloween candy. Go to a regular-sized thing. Pudding cups are just as bad for this. These people are pissing me off.

Next year, Tews is going full-sized chocolate bars. So come by. Ring the bell. My ex isn't working again. Like, are you freaking kidding me, Stream Yard? Candace gracious. I doze is worried about small chocolate bars. My ex doesn't want to work.

I like that deuce. Anyways, mashup 131. It's going to be a day. Okay? I'm already annoyed. And, yeah, okay. All right, fair enough. Small chocolate bars.

X doesn't want to work. I got to drive three and a half hours to see. See that guy right there. This guy. Matchup 131. For those of you who don't know today, we're going, we've got hospitality suite at the,

UCPA jam. So everybody who's going to say, hey, you know what, I do or don't like what Daniel Smith has or has not been doing. Now is your opportunity.

We're going to come and say hi. We'll have a few beers. Have few laughs. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Hey, you know, before we get too far,

me and you were talking about our theme music, our walking tune, you know, and don't we have to change it now? Because Eminem is like, like, what the hell is going on?

So we're throwing this out to the mashup people because you people are wonderful. We want, I don't know, maybe I'm talking out loud. I'll let two's chime in here too. Are we like, let's get somebody from Alberta to make us a kick-ass tune or are we seeing Canada? Are we just saying, hey, we want to kick-ass tune? Why would we even restrict ourselves? Okay, we're not going to restrict ourselves. Okay, fair enough.

I just don't want to hear it in fucking French. I think a French dude. Can you imagine it was a badass French? Edge Tune every time Tuesday. If it was badass. That would be great. That would be great. Hey, all right.

I'm not restricted. If you got somebody, uh, you know, we're looking for a tune. Essentially we're looking for a tune because, you know, eminent and now it's like,

ah, man, why is, why do people have to be, yeah. Well, I can't, I can't believe, I can't believe X isn't working on my end.

I'm just like, what a, what a shit show. Uh. Here, let me see if I can, if I hit the button up top four. it what happens what happened i just tried i just literally tried renewing uh the thing on my end i you know

i got to get on the show i got lots of driving today this won't be this is not going to ruin my day all right an error occurred wait a moment then try it again okay yeah we try it we let's just move forward coots six and a half of course we always bring up uh christopher carbert anthony olinic two of the coots four sentence to six and a half here's your weekly reminder that shenanigans continue to occur all across our country. Happy Airborne Friday to Jamie Sinclair and all the other boys up to Johns. Yes.

Jamie, it was great having you on the live stream every single moment that you were on the live stream, whether you knew it or not. So if you haven't listened to the SaaS collection coverage, I put it out on the podcast. Who gave me a rough time because I hadn't put out the BC one on the podcast? And I was like, well, it's like six hours. Anyways, it doesn't matter.

So I put it out there. and I still have people text to me like every, you know, twice a day going, man, I just got to the end of the SaaS live stream. That might be the funniest thing I've ever heard. And so if you have no idea what we're talking about, go back to the SAS live stream. Just check it out. Go to the last. Our 44 minute mark and just listen to the last 16 minutes.

I promise you, you will not laugh any harder than what you're about to all week long. You're going to, you're going to cry yourself. You're going to have a great time. And shout it to Jamie Sinclair, because obviously, We got a lot of time for Jaby on this side, and it couldn't have gotten any better for us at the end of the side. Live stream. Did you talk to him about that afterwards?

Yeah, I did. I called him the next morning. Yeah, I called him the next morning. I'm like, did you listen to the live stream? He's like, what? And of course, he was laughing. We should have had a live update. We should have brought him on today.

But mashup 131. As 2's pointed out tonight, we're at the UCB, UCP, UCP, AGM, We got AMC electrical bottom hand rant services, both sponsoring that. There are going to be two of the companies that are showcasing our hospitality room and our live episode, probably that we're going to, we're going to record tomorrow is my guess. We're kind of waiting to see what the setup is so we can get our brains around what we're going to do. But those two companies stepping up for not only the hospitality room,

but the episode we're going to record in Red Deer this weekend. So that once again is the AMC, electrical group, that's Truman McKay, and bottom hand rant services. That's Terrick El Naga. So, yeah, hospitality room, cash bar, and pretty cool people. Come hang out with everybody. Yeah, basically everybody except Blake Richards is welcome to come by. Anything else before we get rolling twos here on.

That's basically it. Yeah, we're just really looking forward to seeing everybody who's coming out to see the AGM. I, much to my personal chagrin, had to pull the pin and buy a membership so that I could attend. And yeah, if I can do that, you can too, although it's kind of too late at this point.

But everybody who did get tickets, we're looking forward to seeing you guys. Absolutely. And I suppose I should pull up the mashup collection. Hey, I heard there's going to be one of, not those, one of these float, round this weekend. I've been told that one of these shirts

is showing up. Obviously, I'm talking about you go online, you can go see the mashup collection and grab one of many different shirts. I'll toss it in. Are the Tuse ones on there yet? No. Tuse ones are not. I sent you that weeks ago. I don't know if Tews is ever going to be on there, folks.

I'm going to be honest. I sent you that weeks ago. Let's move on. All right. We're going to have an echo because Tews can't figure his stuff out today. Well, why is everything but that going through my headphones? Welcome to my issues up today. You're through my headphones right now. Welcome.

And that is getting played on the speakers. Tickling your eardrums, am I? I don't know. I got issues on my side. I can't get X to work off of here. I'm just like, whatever. This is going to be technology today. Fine.

Fine. Chrome did an update and then all of a sudden, Streamyard just doesn't line up with it anymore. I think we need to storm the gates. All right. Just walk it off. Josh said his dad, this is Prince Albert, correct? I feel like I should have had that marked in.

I mean, it's weird that it was a shooting and not a stabbing, but yes, this is Prince Albert. Josh said his dad got to work site about 14 kilometers north of the city around 6.45 a.m. And he was driving a company Dodge Ram truck. It's pitch black because it's a rural job site. So he'd get the lights and electricity. He was filling up the generator with gasoline. And then all of a sudden, he saw two vehicles come screaming into the job site. He talks about seeing the dust in the air.

and the headlights. All of a sudden the guys come running up to him, shoved him the shotgun in his face and said, get down on the ground. Where is all your stuff? And his father, Orlin, said, it's all in the truck. Take it. Take the truck. It's yours. And then the guys hit him in the back of the head with the stock of the shotgun. And then his dad said he could feel the cold barrel in the base of his head like neck. And he just started praying. He thought his life was over.

Instead of pulling the trigger, the man ordered Orland to his feet into the trailer. Once they got in the drop trailer, the assailant said to him, sorry bro i got to shoot you and his dad said he just buried his head and started praying he got shot and with a shotgun and then survived all of this yes i mean that's that that's the that's the and then he was worried that they knew he was still alive and so he found some bailing wire tied the door shut waited an hour till he was sure they were all gone and then walked back to town correct this guy is this guy is like legit and um and yet they still have haven't found the two suspects well they found two they've found two of the two sorry two

two are still missing i should have said yeah so that that there's your state of uh saskatchewan right now and if you're wondering who the guy is of course he's a beauty because he's no wonder they shot him hey there he is no wonder they shot him i had a kid come by last night dressed as gretzky and i was like oh who are you dressed up as he said well it's went gretzky and i was like i never heard of the guy but uh we only give him half as many canny Oilers fans. That's because you blacked it out,

all you flames fans just blacked out that guy for how many years? Okay, honestly, when it comes to 80s hockey players, you saying that other people are blacked out isn't really the argument you think it is with Grant Fier playing net.

Sure. It's still coming through. It's going to be interesting today. Oh, okay. Here, real quick. Still awaiting my three maps. I'm a ship shirt. It seems it is a shipping issue. I heard that from somebody else. So what you're saying is, it's time to throw this thing to the wind, get a Canadian company to deal with our Canadian stuff.

Let's talk to Quick Dick. We're going to talk to Quick thing. Fine. Done. Done. Too's you're cruel. Tell me I'm wrong, though. Tell me I'm wrong. You're wrong. The softer side of the economy. We need to get one thing clear. GDP is an imperfect measure of productivity despite its ubiquity and economic conversation. This coming from Brian Lewis. He says it especially falls short when comparing two nations with different structures and economic priorities. While GDP measures output, it misses many factors that contribute to quality of life. It turns out that when we look at other measures such as incomes, health, fairness, and happiness, Canadians are doing pretty well compared to other countries. Two's? It's really interesting that you could make a decent argument,

or at least a slight argument, that GDP, because there's, is really nebulous, but you could kind of say that because there's a different structure with us having health care and them not having health care as part of the taxes we pay, that it's not totally reflective. But then he goes on to complain that the public sector isn't accurately reflected in GDP. And from here, I'm saying, why should it be at all? But he goes, like, even at one point, he's like, it doesn't, GDP doesn't even measure how happy people are. The point of an economist, well, there's a few points.

One is to weigh tradeoffs against each other because that's all economics is. But to do that, you need to be able to accurately measure things. Okay. And for you as an economist to talk about levels of happiness stretches credulity a little bit because if you can't measure it accurately, you can't discuss the tradeoffs with it. And I think it's fair to say, that happiness is a pretty fucking tough thing to measure. So this is just a giant fluff piece in McLean's saying that, oh, hey, you know, even though you're all poor and broke and going to food banks, the economy isn't as bad when you compare it to comparable nations like the United States

because happiness. Oh, that echoes driving me nuts. Why is everything coming through here except for the buzzer? I don't know. The NDP are not a serious party. One day after Block Co-Ect bloat leader Francois Blanchet said they'd be joining efforts to bring down the minority liberals. And we all thought, hey, maybe we're going to get an election. Jagmeet Singh comes rolling in and says he wants nothing to do with it.

Quoted, I will not let Pierre Piliab, the king cut or the block to call the shots. He told reporters Wednesday afternoon. I don't want a liberal government. I don't want Justin Trudeau's prime minister. There will be an election. And when that election comes, people have an important choice. You know, in that election that's coming after he passes his pension date? That is the only time that's coming.

It is just painful at this point. A pension vest in point. And then he also needs to, he absolutely needs to have a little bit more money because, I mean, we covered this a few weeks ago. They're broke as shit. Yes. Now, just, look, I think this is about the only time I'm ever going to say this. But I think there's a decent argument to be made right now for donating to the NDP. If you've got some spare money lying around, odds are not because we live in fucking Canada.

But on the upside, it's basically worthless. And so if you want to get rid of some worthless stuff, send some of your Canadian money to the NDP so that they're not so damn broke that we can't have an election. because literally the only thing holding this bullshit coalition together right now is the fact that the second place party or the third place party in Canada is too fucking broke. That's it. They're idiots. And because they're idiots, they're broke. And because they're broke, they can't afford an election.

And because they can't afford an election, we can't have an election because they decide. I'm not donating to the NAP. Neither am I. No. Fuck that. I'm just saying it's just like it's the best argument I've ever heard for someone to donate to the NDP. You don't hate the media enough. Toronto Star, we'll start there.

No wonder Pierre Pollyev wants to defund the CBC. The public broadcaster has barely shown them any deference. Let's start by noting that contrary to the conservative leaders claim, the CBC is not the propaganda arm of the liberal government. Okay. Overall, its reporting appears balanced, right. Now that doesn't even... Nothing backing up any of this, by the way.

Now that doesn't mean that the CBC treats climate denial as a legitimate point of view rather than what it is, the rejection of a well-established science. This is coming from the Toronto start, Linda McQuag, who ran it for an NDP twice, lost twice. Don't want to go any further than that. She did work for the CBC at one point in time. This is a big old, like, how is this in the- It's a big club and you're not in it. Oh, yeah. And then the Denver Post wrote the Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on Tuesday hurled a series.

of personal tax at Vice President Kamala Harris calling her lazy, a word long used to mean black people in racist terms, and repeatedly questioning her intelligence and stamina. Isn't that interesting? Just like, oh, well, she's lazy.

Oh, well, obviously you're being racist. I know lots of people who are lazy. Most of them live in Toronto. Okay, does that mean I'm Toronto? I mean, yes, I am. But that's a side point. Okay. The other thing is we've got this, do we need the CBC, a national survey of Canadians on public media? And this, this asked a very small handful of questions.

It asked basically how satisfied are you with local and national news coverage. So, I mean, the idea is you want to start off with flower pots. You want to stack flower pots. So this was a good flower pot stack question at the start. And then it immediately goes to for each scenario, where would you go to learn more? and the options are local news, national news and social media. Forest fire evacuation. The Olympics, E. coli outbreak.

The king is ill. Your mayor has an affair. Stock market crash. I get the fact that we've got a lot of forest fires, but out of all of those other things, how many of them are even remotely relevant in day-to-day news? And then it asks, you know, what journalists out there are journalists you can trust. and its big focal point is that there was lots of them that were in the mainstream media but the big takeaway should be that fewer than 50% of the people surveyed could name

a journalist that they trusted and then they had this highly skewed graph i'm going to show this real quick this is this is why canadian polling is garbage okay so here look at this zoom it zoom in on it twos um let's see here Oh, shoot, I'm on the wrong page. Okay, here we are zooming in. There you. Now, I would just like to note the scale of this graph is between 20 and 60%. So if you were to have an honest scale of this graph, it would go all the way to the end of the right hand margin.

Yes, yes. But it doesn't because, hey, why be honest about this stuff? And so it's interesting. Some would agree or strongly agree that. CBC should be a reliable source of accurate information. High trust levels has a large audience, popular, strengthens the country. How do you define strengthens the country?

When you have these nebulous questions that people don't know how to ask, you just get answers all over the place. And if you're honest about it, then your margin of error ends up being higher. But they're not. Their margin of error was actually really low, given how bad these questions are. And then here's the funny thing. Do you agree or disagree with any of the following criticisms of CBC Radio Canada?

It's irrelevant. It's too woke. It doesn't speak to me or my interest. It tells people what to think. Biased reporting shouldn't have ads. Does not receive enough reliable funding. What does reliable funding mean? Is that public funding? I don't know. And so you've got these bastardized questions that nobody knows how to answer. And then you use this survey as results as to why people trust media. The thing you definitely don't need to trust in this situation is this. And by the way, more people, people said that they agree that they have biased reporting, then people did not agree with it. It didn't even actually even say where it came from or where the people surveyed were. It said that it just normalized the questions across demographics. This is bullshit.

And yet it's being presented as a legitimate reason why we need to keep the CBC afloat. Well, and the other thing going back to the, so that's on the Canada set on the American side with Trump calling or lazy and repeatedly question. her intelligence stamina. What did they do to Donald Trump? They, they question his stamina as age on and on and on. And so it's, it's just, it's just interesting. You know, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we're trying to, um, portray. And defending the CBC is about a big of a non-stutter today as ever. And, um, you know, you go down to the states and you see what the writing. And it probably goes both ways, but it just seems to be, we see an awful lot that is just absolute. BS. Oh, that buzzers pissing me off.

The whistle stops here. The owner of the whistle stop. Chris Scott is suing the Alberta government for the imposing mandates on businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic. A class action lawsuit on behalf of the businesses was certified by the Alberta Court of Kings Bench on Wednesday. The lawsuit is open to all businesses in Alberta that were impacted by pandemic closures. All individuals who owned an in-hole or in part a business or businesses in Alberta that was subject to full or partial closure or operational restrictions mandated by the chief medical officer of health orders between March 17th, 2020 and the date of certification court documents read.

So to all you, Alberta businesses, if you're listening, that's big news. Now, the question I want to know is how can people get on that? Well, you know,

maybe what we should do, because that's Rath and Eva. I'm going sure. I'm pretty sure we could, reach out to one or both and have them come on maybe next week and just give an update of like, hey, if you're a business in Alberta, this is how you can get on it. I can't see it being that hard of a thing twos because they're going to be looking for businesses and you think here in Alberta there should be thousands of people reaching out, I would think. Yeah, yeah. Well,

I mean, that's the thing is you say, okay, well, you know what? You had a business. Okay, well, who do I talk to? Well, you got to look forever, forever. Ever, ever, ever, ever, ever? It's his song. Yeah. RCMP officer has a giant bust. Her CMP in BC say they have taken down the largest, most sophisticated drug super lab in Canada. The police force says federal investigators focused on combating illicit drug production in Canada,

busted the lab, which is believed to be run by a transnational organized crime group, involved in mass production and distribution of fentanyl and methamphetamine across Canada and internationally. According to police, the amount of fentanyl and other materials seized would have amounted to more than 95 million potential lethal doses and worth an estimated 485 million in profit. To put it in context, the fentanyl seeds could have taken the life of every Canadian citizen twice over. And aside from the drugs, which included 54 kilograms of fentanyl, 390 kilograms of methamphetamine and 355. kilograms of cocaine. Police also seized 89 firearms, several small explosive body armor, and 500,000 in cash. Those guns look brand new, hey? And the interesting thing is that there's only one revolver, which, I mean, presumably these people have them for, you know, defending,

protecting their territory and their stuff. And they would want to be able to have a loaded firearm and short notice, in which case you would want to have a revolver, because, you would want to have a revolver, because if you have any other of those semi-autos there, you know, eventually the spring in the mag is going to start to wear, and then you experience potential for jamming. And so you've got a bunch of people who bought guns to protect themselves based on what they saw in movies. But also, that's a shit ton of guns.

And look at all that MDMA. It's all MDMA and guns. It's basically like they rated Joe Rogan's house. and it's a lot that is a lot 95 million doses well yeah this is

it was a street value of over half a billion dollars yes which is quite quite a bit and so even for BC that's quite a bit

yeah yeah that's a fair point I feel like every street corner drug dealer probably has all of that but yeah are you going to to discuss Chris going to AGM because of the change in the Alberta Bill of Rights. Actually,

you know what? That's good mentioning real quick. So this Alberta bill of rights is being proposed right now. There's a nice little clause in it that basically says these are inalienable rights that the government can never impose upon unless the government decides that they need to impose upon them in which they will, which makes it totally worthless. The whole point of this is to have a check and balance against the government. And if you give the skeleton key for this thing to the government, it's completely pointless. They'll never use it to's.

They never do such a thing. Isn't it funny how that goes? Yeah. If you're never going to use it, take it out. It's like, why would you go to the trouble of making such a pointless document? Like how much time and effort have you tied these bureaucrats up with with saying, we are going to write this thing that just gives lays out all of the things that we can never do towards Alberta citizens as members of the government unless we as the government decide to do these things to Alberta citizens. Somebody explain to me what the hell the point of that is.

I need late and gray to come on. Maybe we're just going to have a whole roundtable next week about all this stuff. We're going to see hopefully this weekend, folks, we run into a bunch of these people. we put the mics on and we get to talk about a bunch of the stuff. That is the hope while we're in Red Deer. We're going to find out. We're going to find out. So hopefully while we're going to get around out of that place.

Mike, everyone else's podcast. This is funny because I've been joking about how much money could we get from the mashup to do, you know, exactly what we're doing. The Trudeau government is facing criticism for spending millions of taxpayer dollars on podcast productions across federal departments. According to recently obtained records, of course, it's the taxpayers foundation that uh uh uh a federation sorry the got these these taxpayer funded podcast labeled by critics as make work projects for bureaucrats no kidding have sparked public debate about government spending

um and here's a couple statistics canada's the a sayers podcast for example has covered topics like gender identity okay this is statistics Canada right gender identity climate change and misinformation across 21 episodes since january 20 21 you know how much that cost a million dollars for 21 episodes. I'm like, okay, think about that. We've done 131. We could have had six and a half million dollars. Correct.

Correct. Like, honestly, if you gave us six and a half million dollars, I would be on a catarad somewhere and I would never come back to Canada and I would be besmirching your idiot government anymore. I'd be like, good luck, fuckers. See you guys later. Like, that would be money well spent. If I was the government.

another high cost production, the CCI and C-H-I-N in our words podcast from Canadian Heritage aimed to preserve department history through staff interviews. The seven episode series produced from 2019 to 2021 cost approximately $155,000. That's more than $22,000 for episode. I'm like, what? 22 grand an episode? Does anybody else think it's weird that with all of these allegations of foreign interference, we have a department in our government that is C-H-I-N.

We literally have C-H-I-N as a department. I feel like maybe that's where the investigation should start. Meet the new ads, same as the old ads. The Liberal Party is preparing to launch an ag campaign to fight back against the high-flying conservatives and close a polling gap that suggests it's on track to lose it big if an election is called soon. You think, like, I want to know how they're going to try and close it. Oh, my goodness.

Liberal, like, I just can't imagine writing this. Liberal MPs heard today from Andrew Beaven, the parties recently appointed campaign director, about what the party has planned to try and claw its way back in contention. Maybe getting rid of your leader would be a start. Hey, just saying, I think we sort of brought a knife to a gunfight so far. on how that's not a knife that's not a gun that's a knife that's the wrong movie

but yeah that's the simpsons that's the knife that's a spoon ah see you've played knife is spoonie before um I'm having fun on this side folks I think we sort of brought a knife to a gun fight so far as on how we're approaching advertising and how we're approaching

the campaign in general said liberal MP Erskine Smith as he told the reporters after the meeting with Bevin and then as the article went down in 2023, you know, this is really interesting. The liberals just spent

381,000 on advertising. Any guesses on how much the conservative spent in that time? I mean, I know because I read the article. 8.5 million folks. 8.5 million versus under 400,000. So here's the thing is that

the conservatives have shit tons of cash right now because everybody's donating to them because they want the liberals to lose. And you're limited in how much you can spend And once the writ gets dropped, you're limited on how much you can spend. Can't even the playing field out? And so if you can only spend this much money, you set aside that much money. And then for the whole rest of it, you're like, okay, well, let's just spend as much money as possible leading up to it.

They should donate some of that to the NDP. Give them a million. Give them a million bucks and be like, listen, but you call the election in two days. Yeah, you can afford to have an election now, you fucking bums. but okay well here's i'm just i'm really looking forward to seeing what they come up with because the guy they've got putting this all together used to be the strategy manager or whatever his specific title was for Kathleen win who as you guys may recall was an absolute dumpster fire and a disgrace on her way out as liberal fuck everything up of toronto before she was succeeded by

dug ford who does not can we make it illegal for parties to be calling themselves conservative if they don't do anything conservative. Do we just start with that? That'd be interesting. Okay, but anyway, I'm curious to see how this unfolds and if any of it actually comes across as being good

or if they look like a bunch of idiots. I feel like they're going to try and take things out of context that Pollyav said 26 years ago. Probably. D.C. goes down the drain. The Canadian dairy farmers sent more than 6.8 billion liters of surplus milk down the drain between 2012 and 2021. Think about that.

That's a lot, folks. A rate of milk dumping higher than the U.S. and other major dairy countries. That's the estimation researchers who compared the total milk production of Canada's national dairy herd with the actual amount of milk that goes out at the farm gate. The quantity of wasted milk, 6.8 billion liters, would be worth 14.9 billion fill over 2,700 Olympic-sized swimming pools and feed 4.2.2. million people annually. The lost milk equivalent is 7% of Canada's milk production, and that exceeds on-farm milk dumping rate in the U.S., which is at 0.5%, Sweden, 0.3%, Finland, 0.5%.

In Scotland, 1.8, France, the closest 3.5. Okay, so the reason why, if you talk to somebody in the dairy cartel, like our friend D.C., he'll say that the issue is, is that they're really limited in capacity for the not refineries, but whatever the hell you call, you know, the place they take the milk from the farm to treat it and pasteurize it and put it into cartons and send it off. That's their choke point. And when there's not enough capacity at those plants, then the farmers just have to dump the milk out. And, you know, you might argue that it's poor planning on their part.

They've got too many cattle or they're just whatever else, right? thing about it is, is that the main argument is that milk needs to be protected for consumers' sake so that the consumers can know when they're buying a jug of milk that they're getting something that's safe and it hasn't gone bad and that they can trust that what they buy is going to be a quality product. Now, I don't think there's a single product in the world less deserving of that sort of protection than milk. Because if you open up a jug of milk, you go, oh, milk's gone bad, bitches.

that's it and you dump out the milk and you're out $2 and then you don't buy that milk again or you take it back and you say hey you guys sold me a bad jug of milk and then they give you another one okay and if it happens enough you stop buying that milk you don't go there anymore and so why the farmers can't just sell directly to their communities is absolutely beyond me because it's illegal in Canada you can't just sell raw milk because god forbid that you could just sell something that you rate like from your actual farm directly to people who don't want to see it be processed and if you sold them a bunch of bad milk they would just stop buying your milk you know it's funny i feel like at this point there's a huge black market of milk right now like

raw milk being sold surprise me at all it probably always has been there but i think i think the freedom movement really like i think there's some money to be had in raw milk i mean how many times do you go over to a, you know, a friend neighbor's house for coffee and they're like, hey, you want some milk? I'm like, what kind of milk you got? Yeah, it's a good kind. And then you guys have some milk. The good kind.

And that's the thing. It's not, oh, it's just raw milk. They're like, oh, yeah, sorry, all we have is just the stuff that came directly from the cow. We don't have any of the store-bought stuff. It's like, you got to check out this raw milk every single time. And so, anyway, your cost of getting. a shit jug of milk is very low.

This past summer when I was at the Bitcoin Rodeo, went to like, I don't know, after party with the Bitcoiners. And you know what was there? Raw milk. I'm like, what is this? I'm like, you know, and they're like, oh, it's raw milk.

You ever tried it? I'm like, yeah, yeah, I come for the, yeah, I've had it. Do you want some? I'm like, well, yeah, I feel like it's kind of like orientation right now. If you're not going to drink the raw milk, you're out the group.

I just feel like they're probably traded Bitcoin for raw milk right now. You know, it's great. Well, I mean, well, that's exactly it. So you've got this product that has very little cost of consumer protection, right? You know, worst case scenario, the consumer's out a couple bucks. And he never goes back to that place again. And instead, you've got a multi-billion dollar industry regulating it for no purpose whatsoever other than to enrich themselves so they can further donate to the establishment parties

and prop up fucking Quebec. U.S. election update. There's two things here. First, two American women were dragged off a British Airways flight, but I believe after having a brawl over one of them wearing a bright red mega hat, according to her report. So there's that to women of all. Yeah.

So this woman was wearing a maga hat on the plane, and then some other one was like, you need to take that off. And then she wouldn't. And so the other woman started throwing fist to cuffs. she started defending herself. They threw both of them off the plane and they both weren't

sent on their flights. So just like imagine that. It's not, it's not the the woman who wore the MAGA hat got punished. Yes. And then the other part of this is MSNBC showing video of Trump's rally at New York

in Madison Square Gardens and comparing it to what happened with the Nazi party and Hitler being there What would that be 80 years ago? That's what they compared it to. That is wild. Oh, it's insane.

Just check this out here for a sec. But that jamboree happening right now, you see it there on your screen, in that place, is particularly chilling. Because in 1939, more than 20,000 supporters of a different fascist leader, Adolf Hitler packed the garden for a so-called pro-America rally. That was literally. an MSNBC. And here's the thing. In the middle of COVID, I was so hesitant to like bring up

Nazis, Hitler, right? Because I'm like, that's a pretty strong comparison to make. Right? It's like you've never seen the left wing talk about anything. And then the left wing, you know, they come out and they're like,

they're like Hitler. And they literally show old, you're like, oh my God. This is unbelievable. This is the same building where there was a Nazi rally 80 years ago. Like, how many places in Germany can you say that about? Probably all of them.

Like, basically anything that's 80 years old, you can say that. Let's get on. Let's get on. I want to get some. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. I want to get it on to you. Covindication.

Covindication. Idaho's Southwest District Health will no longer offer COVID-19 vaccines after its board voted four three last week to pull the shots from the 30 locations where it provides health care services. It's the first health agency in America to do that. Laura Demeray, a southwest Idaho resident and nurse who attended the October 22nd vote said. That's pretty cool. Now, obviously in the state, you can still get the shot.

That's not what it's saying. It's saying at these locations they no longer offer it. That is the first spot in all of North America to do that as far as we know. That's big news. The argument being that by offering the shot, you're providing a tacit endorsement to it. it and they didn't want to be associated with that given the fact that there are some unsubstantiated claims that things aren't exactly going well for everybody. Unstantiated claims.

Yes, yes. There's starting to be some reports trickling in, Sean, of people feeling a little bit woozy afterwards. The Empire Strikes Back. Canada Post has presented its latest contract offer in labor negotiations of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers, less than. in a week after the union received a strike mandate from workers in a bid to reach

a new deal without a labor disruption. The latest proposal includes annual wage increases of both amounting to 11.5% over four years. This is the same Crown Corporation that has said in recent news it lost $490 million in the first half of

2024. In addition to the $3 billion, it lost between 2018 and 2023. 748 million of that was in 2023. So this is a company, a crown corporation.

So when they lose money, hand over fast, guess who pays for it? We do. You, me, everybody watching. So we're on the hook for them sucking

because they do. They suck the money right out of us, if nothing else. They lost half a billion dollars in the first half of the year. And they're striking because they want more money.

They're getting an 11, half percent raise and guarantees, job guarantees, because let's face it, nobody's using the mail anymore. At what point do we cut themselves, at what point do we cut them off and say, you guys are no longer relevant? Like, this is, this is the buggy whip argument with the buggy, like, they're just, they're just this anachronistic remnant of the past that's no longer relevant at all. And even within their limited scope, they fucking suck it.

at it. The only thing they do is a shitty job of handling mail-in ballots at this point. They're doing a pretty good job of that. They're going to go on strike? Who the fuck's even going to notice? Be like, oh, yeah, I got something in the mail. It took like three weeks to get here. Oh, why is that? Oh, I don't know. I'm not sure if they were on strike or if it's just because they always suck that much. There's no discernible drop in service when they go on strike. So here's the thing. If you're some union or some professional organization of workers, you need to get your level of delivery up to a point where if you stop working entirely,

people will notice before you stop working entirely. You're not wrong. Goofy news. Women in China get phone calls from the government workers asking, are you pregnant now? One lady said she received a phone call, which was uncomfortably personal and invasive. The working mother of two shared that she was asked when she would be conceiving a third child next bc store closed after person lights toilet paper aisle on fire yeah well there you go there's there's another way of how much money that would have cost them in 2020 well i go there's another way to have a uh a scare of you know we're running out of toilet paper uh russia

russia finds google 200 and point uh 20.5 decillion more than the entire world's GDP for allegedly blocking Kremlin propaganda. A Russian court has ordered Google to pay a fine worth more than the entire world's GDP with an additional one million daily penalty after the tech giant allegedly barred pro-Moscow propaganda channels on YouTube. So just so we're absolutely clear, that is if you add up every dollar that every person on the planet makes. So the Oprah Winfries all the way down to the slave labor in Cobalt,

minds. Yes. If you add up all of that across every nation on the planet, that for a year, that is more than what Google was fine in Russia, which is just absolutely ludicrous. I'm trying to find, do you have the video twos of the encampment? I do. Yeah. I got it. I got it. Pull it up because this is crazy too. And my experience with me so far I haven't seen anything. Keep talking.

Well, I was going to say, you know, like, we've stared at all these encampments. And you're like, you know, I've driven around a couple times where you're like, hey, you know, like, if I was homeless, this is where I'd live. This encampment is very, very well done. Oh, it looks like it's basically like where Robin or Robin Williams hung out with all the lost boys in hook, like on steroids. So it's just, just in this wooded. kind of off to the side of the industrial parts.

They got batteries. They got solar panels. They've got working kitchen appliances. And it's like the coolest fort you've ever seen in your life. Yeah, I'm not even mad about this. I watch it. I'm like, man, look at this. Look at this.

There's a washing machine in the corner. The cop literally says, well, it's not safe. And I'm like, not safe. Man, that looks like it's built well. And they were, you know, it's got a fireplace. I'm like, are you kidding me? Like they even, they even went to the trouble. putting in a flu.

Like, then there's a half naked woman in the background, like on the wall. They've even got on decorated. Like, did you see that woman on the wallpaper? They've got tiled floors. Imagine you're a kid. You're building a fort out in the pasture

and you put tiled floors in it. This is incredible. Imagine if they put this amount of time and effort into not being crackheads. Although I will say, like, If you're all jacked up on methamphetamines all the time and you're sitting out in the woods with absolutely nothing to do, yeah, sure, you're probably going to build the fucking Coliseum.

Why not? You're just, I'm awake for 23 hours a day and I've got nothing to do. And all I have is this little saw and a chisel. Let's see what we can build. Jesus Christ. Like, I'm just, I'm just impressive. Like, why can't we get Canada post workers addicted to crap? And let's see how well the Postal Service turned out.

And before we, the last one on Goofy News, Havier Malay calls Socialists the Short P penis Club. That was also in there. That was kind of funny. He went off. Yes. He says you have to understand is that when these resentful, envious leftists appear, which I usually call the short penis club. Fair. Because basically, who claims for the average dick size?

the ones with the smallest one. The one who's above average is not going to say, come here and cut it off. So basically it's just that, you know, if you've got a giant dick, you're not going to ask for the average size dick. The only time you want to have an average size dick is if you already have a tiny dick.

March, March, March. March, Marge all one says that is a really well done encampment, living off grid the way it should be. And I like this one, Carol Scobie says a bugout spot. I'm like, yeah. Like, I mean, that was well done. It was well done.

You should see about having a couple of those guys over for the S&P presents. You know, just talking about. Hey, is that what you guys did with your stuff? I'm wondering if you'd love to come talk at the SMP Cornerstone event in Calgary? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that would be, that'd be fantastic. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you guys got any crack or maybe some wood I can cut up? Let's get some wood. tiles tiles tiles

yeah well i mean when you've got an entire industry built on stealing building supplies from new residences this is what they're going to come up with right i'm like i wonder how much they paid for all that oh wait they stole it all liberals need to abort the abortion debate um i don't know i just put liberals will always protect a woman's right to choose they got videos out about it too they're tanking in the polls and so they're tanking in the polls and so

So they haven't done a good job of the typical, like the classic fallback, anytime the liberals are doing badly in the polls, is the conservatives have a secret agenda to take away your right to abort your children. And, you know, I've said this before. Oh, the Red Deer Resort and Casino is trying to give me a call. I'm going to have to call them back. They probably want to know what's going on tonight. I've said this before, but they're idiots.

And it's just grasping at straws. They've been really, the conservatives have been really clear about this. And if it was going to be something they were going to do, why didn't they do it when Stephen Harper was in charge for a decade? But they're doing so badly in the polls that they're actually trying to do a new twist on this where they're getting nonprofits caught in the middle and saying that, you know, trying to set the conservatives up to say, hey, this is bad legislation. And then if the conservatives say that, then they're going to go, oh, see, see, we told you

they were against abortions. But really at this point, Sean, they're just grasping at code hangers. Update the green slush fund. Andre Lee's method of cycle capital paid her own company's millions of dollars from the green slush fund. But inconvenient questions about her ethics, hurt her feelings because she's a woman, a co-backer, and an environmentalist. Yes, I'm going to show you guys this real quick. Just basking how fucking, this is a woman who got busted for funneling literally hundreds of thousands of dollars into her own personal companies. as a supposed, what do you call it, overseer of taxpayer monies.

He stated several times that you feel that your reputation has been tarnished. And previously you had started to say something about yourself being a woman and then you were cut off. Did you? Yes, I've often been under the impression that I've been under the impression that I was being attacked because I was a woman, a Quebecer, an environmentalist, because I was known. I don't know. But if everyone... No, bitch. You got attacked because you stole hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars. Correct. Correct.

Oh, man. All right. The happy news. You're probably going happy news already. Yes. We got to be in red deer. We got a big day today. We got a big day today, folks. I hope we're going to see. there. We're going to start, okay, well, I'm going to pull it up. I'm just going to show the video. Tews can talk to it. First, we'll start with this. This is wild. I don't know

who two liter soda dad is, but apparently the dude. This is a crazy amount of chips, man, and pop, and it's in Calgary, correct? Was that, like? Yeah, it says two liter soda dad in Calgary has an impressive stack of chips and pops for this year's Halloween.

Like, look at this. The whole house is just stacked to the roof. with all of this stuff. Yeah. And then there he is. Red Deer Casino calling me too. They're all looking for us, too. I don't know.

Sorry, I guess you guys aren't watching right now, but you should be, and we'll call you right back. Yeah, I guess so. So there's that, okay? That's one of them. The next, oh, come on, get out of here. Get out of here.

I want the next is this guy. This is cool, okay? Race Wingle, a Pennsylvania hunter, he tagged a buck this year after celebrating his 101st birthday So that's pretty cool, man Still out there giving her at a hundred and one Hats off to that man

What is it with what is it with US bucks And having super tiny brow tines I mean It's crazy I mean it almost like yeah It's it's a trophy by Pennsylvania standards But you'd let that one go right past you here in Canada But still regardless

this good for him well done yes and then colin feral crossed the dublin marathon finish line in just over four hours pushing his friend emma fogertie who suffers from a rare skin condition called epidermalysis belosa in a wheelchair for the last 4k of the race yes that's colin feral of imbruges and you know he was in bruges that's the movie you pick that's interesting he's he's literally the main character in the new hbo series the penguin. Okay. Well, do you want me to say he was also in Daredevil?

Yeah, you could do that too. In Bruges. You know, like, I'm like, how many people have seen him Bruges? Sadly, I have. But how many other people in Bruges? What do you mean, sadly? In Bruges. Yeah, I can't believe that's the movie.

Sadly. Happy news is you going to bring up in Bruges. Oh, my goodness. This Yahoo, that's what I got to deal with today. That's who we're going to be. We're going to be sitting in Red Deer. You enjoy the show. Oh, and wait a second.

I'll throw one. Seriously, you're going to skip on the last one? A crosswalk to be proud of. First in Hamilton. Best crosswalk in the cities, less we forget, for November 11th. There you go. Okay.

Now, this legitimately makes me wonder if I'm a hypocrite. Because if I saw somebody doing blackies on this. Yeah, we'd have words, wouldn't we? We would have words. It wouldn't be. It would, yeah. I can't believe somebody. in Bruges was an awesome movie.

Get out of here. Get out of here. Yeah, and here we go. In the 191-19-0. Oh, my goodness. Okay, but yeah. Trisha Roo, we'll see you guys in Red Deer. Oh, yeah, Trisha. Looking forward to seeing you guys.

But, I mean, that's, that crosswalk is an absolute beauty. And I love it. Yeah, it is. And then, but yeah, I got to do some self-reflection here and wonder how big of a hypocrite I am. Because I look at that. And I'm like, that's, uh, That's well done and it's great and I love it. And I would be very, very upset if somebody did the gay pride skid marks on it.

I agree. Now, we have hours until we're in Red Deer. We got to get moving, which means mashup 131 for the first time in a very long time. We're going to be under an hour, Toos. So we hope to see you all in Red Deer tonight. We hope Tuesday gets his act together. Tuesdays his act together. Correct.

Correct. Tews gets his act together. Tuse gets his act together. In Bruges. Seriously, I'm going to watch that movie while... You know what? I'm probably going to go back and watch it and I'll probably enjoy it more now because of this. Oh, my goodness.

Sarker is now emailing me. So Red Dairy and it gets... You know, we're coming for you. We're going to see you there tonight. We're going to see you there tonight. Folks, it's been a pleasure. We'll catch up to you. Hopefully tonight.
