Starting point is 00:00:03 Welcome to the MASHO Tell me whether I'm wrong or right Easter west up or down side to side I sit to stand and fall to fly Of all of my impulsive plans Popping locking salsa dances on demand I follow leading off the map I stop the chatter scream happily
Starting point is 00:00:18 Welcome to the MASHup Welcome to the MASHup Welcome to the MASH up If you see something like the Charlie Kirk assassination and your first thought shouldn't be, how can I make this about me? And I get it. You're reprehensible.
Starting point is 00:00:38 You're an anathema to everything decent about humanity. But aside from being a ginger, you're also a bad person. So two things are clear. You're the enemy, and there is nothing you desire more than attention. So that makes this pretty basic art of war stuff. If your enemy desires something,
Starting point is 00:00:59 deny it to them. So stop giving this person and everybody like her attention. That's the only way that they will go away is if you just ignore them. Just ignore them. Just ignore them. And they'll eventually have to become baristas. That's basically it. And we're bringing in a new warning for the show.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Now covering ourselves. Warning. The following program contains logic, critical thinking, economics, intellectual honesty, and historical common sense. discretion is advised. John. Good morning, Tews. Mashup 175 coming in
Starting point is 00:01:40 on, I don't know. It's, uh, I'm happy to be here. I think me, along with probably everybody watching this, like, we need this. We need the show to do what the show does. Um, provide some comedic relief to a world that is pretty,
Starting point is 00:01:59 uh, difficult at times. And it seems like every week that goes by, you know, I was saying to before, you know, this was, I don't know, was this a month ago, two months ago. I was like, man, this world is just so stupid. I was getting mad and sad and angry and everything else. But then we started to have a little bit of fun. Because it's just like, I don't know what else to do. You know, like you got to poke fun at how insane Canada's become. And then, you know, everything happens with Charlie Kirk.
Starting point is 00:02:27 And I was telling you, like, I got sent way too many videos. And I don't, um, um, um, moan anybody for it. Yeah, for doing it, right? Because I was in the middle of a podcast came out. I had no idea. You know, somebody says, Charlie Kirk's been described. So I was like, oh, what? You know, and you think, I don't know what I thought, but I just clicked on it.
Starting point is 00:02:44 And then I watched a video and I'm like, well, that is about as, um, difficult. A video I've had to watch in a long time. So, uh, happy mashup 175. It comes on a very sad note. Obviously, I don't think I need to say that to everybody watch. And I'm sure everybody, um, on this show knows what. what's what's gone on and probably was a follower of Charlie for all the different places he'd gone and things he was talking about.
Starting point is 00:03:12 And yeah, as Karen Kane says, heavy hearts this week. You know, we've got a lot to talk about on Mashup 175, a lot of different things to talk about. We're supposed to be having Chris Sims hop on here. I assume she's going to join. We can talk more about Charlie. when she hops on twos, but, you know, if you want to do Coots six and a half here before we get started, you know, to anyone enjoying the show, of course, like Cher, make a bansy of a rooster. We'll get into that here in a bit.
Starting point is 00:03:51 But, yeah, it's a heavy heart this Friday. And, you know, Jamie Sinclair had called me and just, you know, we always point out to the military men and airborne Friday. And usually Airborne Friday is a happy note this week. It's kind of on a sad note. So to all the military men out there, appreciate you tuning in and being a part of the show. And if you enjoy the show, make sure you hit the retweet button and share with a friend and help get us out past some of the algorithms that try and hold us back.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Yeah. I'm going to be doing my very best to compartmentalize this as far. as the show goes. I'm going to try and keep the rest of it as normal as possible. So I'm not just an insensitive prick. I mean, I am. I very much am.
Starting point is 00:04:43 But this isn't me being that. Yeah. I think everybody knows that too. Well, just so everybody's aware going into this. All right. As far as Airborne Friday goes, it's not always a happy Airborne Friday.
Starting point is 00:04:59 I don't know if you heard about this or not. Edmonton-based Canadian Armed Forces member deployed in Latvia found dead. No details yet. This was a decades-plus veteran, and he has sadly passed warrant officer George Hole. So there's that. And then more heavy news. All right. Cout six and a half.
Starting point is 00:05:27 This is a guy who has a crazy long long. rap sheet has been wanted for a shooting for the past several years. He was found with several loaded, prohibited firearms and prohibited firearms accessories and was given a 17-month jail sentence. Meanwhile, the guys in Coots, six and a half years. Tamara Litch looking at eight. Chris Barber. Chris Barber looking at nine, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:06:00 and and melting his truck down. So there is that. So if anybody has any community notes or anything like that, this is the time. Okay? Let us know. At times like this in the world, you need community more than ever.
Starting point is 00:06:22 So make sure if you got something going on that's going to bring community together, you let us know there's been, I got a, I got a, I got a, I got to say twos, there has been a ton of people text me. Have we had a week like this where I've been sending you? Like, oh, this is going on and this is going on.
Starting point is 00:06:39 So keep that going. I've been impressed by the amount of people sending me community notes and wanting to get different things shared on the show. So if you got things coming up, make sure you're putting it in the comments today. Or you send me a text because we'll try and get it on the show the best we can. The best of my memory and twos's memory works, which at times can be kind of shoddy.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Now, we do, before we get on a rapid fire, we do have Chris Sims with us. Chris, welcome to the show. Hi, Chris. Good morning, gentlemen. Hi, thanks having me on. Well, I called you yesterday. I, you know, in this side of things, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:07:18 who do I know who's been in journalism longer than anyone? And that's not a date on you, Chris. I don't mean that in any way like that. Just, you know, we're, we got to talk. last night. I thought it'd be a welcome addition today to talk about recent incidents with Charlie Kirk and just your thoughts on it
Starting point is 00:07:37 and just to discuss it here for a few minutes this morning. Yeah, and it's okay. I was born between the two good Star Wars movies, so that's fine. Somebody once called us Generation X-Wing, which I kind of love. So it's kind of cool. Yeah, it's horrible. like there's no real way to sugarcoat it.
Starting point is 00:08:01 I'm at a conference right now, in fact, and I don't know if you can see, but like, you know, people set up tables and they like set up their little banners and they put, I've got my iPhone on a stack of books from Franco. I'm going to put a sign out on my table that says if you disagree with me, please come to the front of the line,
Starting point is 00:08:24 which is something that Charlie Kirk said all the time. for folks who don't know what Turning Point USA was, Charlie Kirk was one of those kids in high school that always wanted to get involved and make a difference. And one of the earliest tweets, in fact, the earliest tweet I ever saw from him, and I'm pretty sure I started following him then, was back in 2011 when he sent a message to Glenn Beck. And he said, hey, I'm a 17-year-old high school student
Starting point is 00:08:56 who's working with the Tea Party and I want to fight debt and deficit. And he started Turning Point USA when he was 18. And there's a lot of us who are in this ecosystem, who are commentators and we're kind of only really on a screen. And then there's those of us who go out and meet people like we do at Cornerstone and other events, Sean, and Toos. And Charlie just, he did that all the time. it was the grind, like campus after campus after campus,
Starting point is 00:09:30 like stacking the stickers, early mornings, hauling the books, putting up the banners. And with Turning Point, what he was trying to do was get very young people like him involved and caring about politics. Because as Pierre Pollyov said, and as many, you know, wise people have said in the past in different languages,
Starting point is 00:09:49 if you don't take an interest in politics, politics will sure as hell take an interest in you. and he really embodied that and I'll admit I'm pretty shaken up by it because Kirk was different in the sense that yeah
Starting point is 00:10:05 he would have his opinions and he would spar with young people but if you watch the full videos of him interacting with them he was always doing so with a bit of humor and some grace and some kindness he was trying to get them to come to the front of the line
Starting point is 00:10:21 and you know through the Socratic method find out why they were doing what they were doing with their lives. And he was sitting on a stage with a microphone in his hand wearing a freedom t-shirt when he was murdered. So it's pretty tough this week. Can I ask of really, I don't understand this, because I never interviewed Charlie. I never saw him speak live.
Starting point is 00:10:48 I watched his videos and some of his interviews and on and on. And I'm like, I can't figure out why. I was saying a Tuesday. The only word I could think of this morning was numb. I just feel like numb to it. And I don't know why. I don't know why a guy I've never met makes me emotional. I was just kind of like, I told Tuesday, I laid on the couch.
Starting point is 00:11:07 He's like, how are you doing? I'm like, yeah, I'm doing fine. And then I thought about it. I'm like, well, I just laid on the couch for like two hours and I wanted to do nothing. I'm like, that makes no sense to me. I'm like, this guy wasn't, you know, coming to the Lloyd Minster community. At least I don't remember that ever happening. I'm like, I guess, Chris, I don't know if you have.
Starting point is 00:11:24 have an answer to that or twos for that matter or anyone. I just like, it seems so odd to me to have such emotion to a man that represented a lot of the ideals that I think very highly of. But I just, I can't figure that out. I'm like, I'm so confused by it, I guess is maybe another word I'd use this morning. If I may, if I may quick, I don't, I've known you for a couple years now and I love you dearly and I don't know you for as long as other friends have known you but if I could just as a person go out on a limb and say Charlie Kirk was a Christ follower like hardcore he he would
Starting point is 00:12:04 quote scripture like that dude can't not even close and he he really would turn things into almost a form of ministry sometimes other times he could go right into Austrian economics and that's more my my speed. He could pull down Rand, right, which is again more my world. But for you, Sean, and how I hear you speak to people, it could be that. You could be sensing that sense of fellowship with him. Also, the way that you reach out to people, like instantly and warmly and really connect with them and try to get young people from all walks of life involved with what you're doing, frankly, young and old from all walks of life, Kirk did that. Now, like, we followed each other on Twitter, but like I didn't interact with them directly. I regret that
Starting point is 00:12:53 deeply now for not even sending him a note saying, hey, I admire you signing up young people, but I have friends who knew him really well. I have friends who work with Glenn Beck, and they were best friends. Glenn Beck's daughter, his teenage daughter, was right next to the tent when this happened because she, I think she's a volunteer with Turning Point or works at Turning Point. So it's I would say you're probably having response like this because it's part of your your circle and your ecosystem. And also, man, you get up on a stage and you talk about free speech with a microphone in your hand. Like this hits close to home. So I just as a friend I would offer, that's probably why you're feeling this.
Starting point is 00:13:38 Plus like the video is just horrific. Horrific. I wish I could delete it from my mind because I keep seeing. it and I keep putting people in my circle like in it and I I hope it goes away. I don't know if I got anything twos. It's okay man. Like it's a bad time. It's okay to feel it's I think I think one of the things about Charlie Kirk
Starting point is 00:14:11 specifically is that he was by far one of the most olive branch people and that's that's the person that somebody decided they were going to take cancel culture to the next level with you know it wasn't it wasn't some guy like me that just spouts off about how stupid everything is over on that side and uh and so you know it's it's not as though they went after i mean they did go after trump uh but if if trump had actually been killed i feel like it would hit people in the gut far less than this did yeah it's uh i i'm still trying to articulate too um it's also that he wasn't an elected representative right he's he he works for an advocacy organization who wants young people to get
Starting point is 00:15:15 involved in politics and sign up you know get out the boat on what am i always preaching on your stage tell 10 friends like go to your local Wednesday meeting get involved get off the bench stay in the arena and it's hard man because um yeah like he had strong views like absolutely he did um and there's some like you know i probably technically disagree with some of them that's fine um the point that kirk kept trying to make is that we can talk this out like let's you know literally he would say, folks who disagree with me most come to the front. Like, I want to talk to you. And you could see him, like, talking with people who, to put it mildly, you could tell by just how, usually, how they look. Not always, not always. They definitely would vote differently than Charlie. You could
Starting point is 00:16:06 imagine. And it was always like, and why do you say this and why do you think that? And oh, that's interesting. And he'd be like, what do you think? And he was trying to debate them. Don't get me wrong. But it was always words, words, words. He was stressing. all the time that we have to do this peacefully. We have to talk this out. And to your point two's, very olive branch language, very much love thy enemy, love thy neighbor, turn the other chief language. So much so that I noticed right away that after someone murdered him, and I don't like
Starting point is 00:16:38 using the passive voice of things happened. No, after someone murdered him, it wasn't just Trump that came out talking about it, and Pierre Pahliav and Daniel Smith. It was Barack Obama. It was Joe Biden. It was Wob Canoe. It was international leaders. Like, they came out quick on this stuff.
Starting point is 00:16:57 And so I think it is resonating with a lot of people. Even Bernie Sanders put out a very long video saying, like, you cannot do this. No. And also to you ghouls online, like stop celebrating this. What does it matter with you? I'm paraphrasing him, but that's what he was saying. So, yeah, I think something has shifted, and I'm not in tune yet enough to understand what has shifted,
Starting point is 00:17:30 but something has definitely shifted. Well, to the, they just John Wicked a couple hundred million people is what happened. Yeah. Yeah. Speaking of people talking online, there's a whole, Like me and twos were talking about where we started. Like MSNBC, Matthew Dowd, political analysts, no longer at the network after some things he posted. A Florida reporter was suspended.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Florida governor Ron DeSantis, Education Commissioner Warren, the state's teachers. They making disgusting statements about Kurt's assassination could draw sanctions, including suspension or revocation of their teaching license. You know, me and twos always talk about comics and movies while DC Comics announced that it was ditching a new Red Hood series of Batman spin-off after the comics writer Gretchen Felker Martin had published comments about Kirk shooting online. Like it just goes on and on and on. NFL's Carolina Panthers distanced themselves from an employee. And then here in Canada, I haven't followed up on all these twos or Chris for that matter. but like there was a U.T. professor who came out saying things. There was a professor in BC who said some pretty disgusting things.
Starting point is 00:18:49 There was a social worker in BC that got fired too. Right. And so that's been some of the, I don't even know, whatever, the aftermath of people coming out celebrating someone being shot. And, you know, like, I guess I, like, I remember the dark days of COVID when people were talking about, Justin Trudeau in a similar light of like, you know, somebody needs to go assassinate that guy and on and on. And, you know, along the convoy, there was something that changed. And I remember whether it was in conversations or in interviews,
Starting point is 00:19:27 people saying, you know, I used to think that way. I just want him to talk to us. I just want to end this. I just want him to, you know, like stop what he's doing. And I saw a turn at that time from physical violence. to just like, can we just talk? And it's just, I don't know, I don't know the words to say on the other side. Now having somebody actually physically assassinated, murdered right in front of everyone.
Starting point is 00:19:54 And then all the people coming out excited and almost bloodthirsty for the vengeance or the, whatever the word is. Well, I mean, there's a lot of people who are. formerly on the left and taking stark a stark look at at the people they've surrounded themselves with over the years there's a lot of videos that came out and things like that of people being like this is not me yep it's true and there's a lot of people are saying that and there's a lot of people kind of in the middle who've been like i need to distance myself from anything like this and they're They're going to be making a whole lot more Charlie Kirk's, but not with as many olive branches, I'm guessing.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Yeah. I mean, yeah, it's... So something that one of my friends at CTF said recently, because we're not talking about this, but talking about in-person events is, I think, you know, you and I, we've all met each other in-person. And obviously we agree on most things. So it doesn't necessarily apply to us.
Starting point is 00:21:13 But I think a lot of times we're trapped in this frame and we're not connecting with each other directly enough anymore. We're not looking each other in the eye. We're not reading our body language. We're not sensing when someone else is a bit scared by what we're saying and then backing off and that human connection. We're losing that. if people, and I don't recommend they watch the video,
Starting point is 00:21:40 but assuming they saw what was done to that man, and there are reports, God forbid this is true, I hope it's not, there are reports that his family was in the front row. If someone can see something like that and sheer, they've really got to look inside themselves. I don't care who's up on the stage. You have to stop and think, what am I doing?
Starting point is 00:22:06 Why am I doing this? And really take, unpack your backpack and find out how you got to this point. Because to your point exactly two, is I am seeing folks who online, I was purposefully trying to not look at what they were doing because I was too focused on my work
Starting point is 00:22:26 and I didn't want to be mad at them to go see what they were saying. And then it popped up anyway. And they were saying things like that of, whoa, this is not me. We got a step back here. Folks like this is not okay. And for those folks who are watching this, who are in that moment of, whoa,
Starting point is 00:22:45 let's back off from this. Like, welcome. That's good. I would recommend a few things. One, absolutely stop using stupid language like you're a fascist, you're a Nazi. No. those terms are for those specific, terrible, heinous things.
Starting point is 00:23:08 Crack open a history book, actually read about those groups of people. And I use that word loosely before you say anything like that. Because it's those kind of inaccurate labels that starts making this toxic black thinking. So I would strongly recommend that people turn the temperature down, back up, okay? think about what you're about to say and post before you do it. And what really is, I think, going through the advocacy community, because the Taxpayers Federation, we started in 1990, like the boss who first hired me,
Starting point is 00:23:46 he was first standing behind a table like this, talking to people back in 1985 on campuses. We have to be able to speak. Free speech is essential to hold governments to account. And at the very basis of it, if we can't hold government to account, they're going to take half our money and seize our stuff. But at the worst of things, they're going to trample on our rights, like with the Emergencies Act.
Starting point is 00:24:11 But most of the time, they're just doing stupid things with our money. Thank God, that's what they're only doing most of the time. But in order to hold government to account, we have to have free speech, and we can't have stuff like this going down, or things are going to change, and it won't be for the good. Well, I think there's a lot of people who are feeling like the rules of engagement have changed after this. And speaking of holding government to account, the media. I'm going to go ahead and say just my stance on this.
Starting point is 00:24:50 You know, here's just a selection of headlines. Maga Pastor accuses Charlie Kirk of inspiring Hitler youth. Charlie Kirk hypes up Trump with terrifying, fascist speech. Charlie Kirk doesn't really seem to mind white nationalism. There's a half dozen more up there.
Starting point is 00:25:09 The media in Western society loaded the gun that killed Charlie Kirk. That's my take. They've been making a living off of, they've been getting more and more increasingly desperate as the revenues have gone downstream. And if it
Starting point is 00:25:30 bleeds, it leads, and they've just gotten more and more dishonest in their coverage of so many things because hate clicks are still clicks. And there's a very small subset of people who actually still believe some of the things that are being said with garbage like this. And this is, I don't think anybody could take an honest look at these kind of articles that led up to this and said that they're not contributing. So even when, so before the lockdowns, back when we were, well, we've always been fighting the carbon tax, but before the lockdowns, we were always fighting the carbon tax and I would go on mainstream media quite a bit and I still do all the time.
Starting point is 00:26:22 I still have friends who work in it. I worked in it myself for almost 20 years. I had opponents in my debates who were from mainstream organizations because I have. wanted to cancel the carbon tax in Canada, or calling me a climate change denier. And anyone who's being honest knows where that language comes from. That language is supposed to ring bells in people's heads for being something which is absolutely heinous and disgusting, which is a Holocaust denier. Like to attribute or to kind of put those two things next to each other is insane. But they were just throwing that language around. And they were saying, oh, you want, you want towns to burn down. You're a monster. You're a monster. And this wasn't just some rando on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:27:07 This is somebody from an accredited organization who is on the radio. And it's just like, I would never assume that of you. Like, I would never, like, assume these terrible things of you. Why? Because I want somebody to pay less money at the gas station and not be punished for heating their home. Could you make these terrible assumptions and throw labels around like this? And it's that kind of stuff. And I would call it out straight up. If it were, somehow someone on the right or like small government that was using that kind of language, I don't know what it would be, the equivalent to someone on the left. I would also call that out and say, like, knock that off. Like, it's not helpful. It makes people feel amped up and anxious and
Starting point is 00:27:50 angry and they start, you know, it affects their thinking. So stop doing that. I'll point this out. I worked on Parliament Hill for a long time. Jack Layton used to come on the show that I was producing a lot. And even when I went to Sun News Network, which was politically different from Jack Layton, to put it nicely, he still came on. He came to the studio with his wife, like all the time. Had a friendly debate, had some coffee, went back to the office. That's how things worked. When he died young of cancer, Prime Minister Stephen Harper cried in the foyer of the House of Commons and gave him a state funeral.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Like, we got to knock this off. Chris, we appreciate you giving us some time today. Any final thoughts before we let you out of here? I just wanted to encourage, especially young people. Charlie Kirk was like before my, like I obviously knew of him and some of my friends knew him very well. And there's young people I know that would go down to Turning Point USA like sessions for like leadership training and you know signing people up like they kind of work on campaigns not
Starting point is 00:29:05 within advocacy but in different groups and so you hear about it um and i know he was really big with teenagers i was i was speaking with my teenager before all this horror happened like a week ago and i said well outside of alberta um who's your most influential like political person would you say and to my surprise she said charlie kirk it's the first thing she said And she's 17. And I'm like, oh, that's interesting. And she said, yeah, he's really big with teenagers. And if you look through Twitter or X, it's post after post after post from people who say
Starting point is 00:29:44 something like this. I was 14 years old and I wanted to even, I think it was like clean up his neighborhood. Like make sure that there was no glass in the streets. It was something very humble and simple. And I wanted to start a community organization. And this guy, Charlie Kirk, DM'd me and said, this is how you do it, kid. Come to this group and we'll help you out. We'll get you started.
Starting point is 00:30:06 People starting off things saying I was 14, I was 17, I was 19. Like, he really, like, affected good change in young people. And I just wanted to encourage them if they're watching. Like, you will be able to find other leaders. This organization, that one that he led will obviously keep going. If something else appeals to you more and it fits in line with your values more, go with that. But just don't give up hope. I just want to encourage them today.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Appreciate you coming on and doing this, Chris. As always, great having you on, even on a sad tone and moment, everything else. Tell me, have you on again or we meet again in person. I appreciate you giving us some time this morning. All right, Tews. We have to find a way. You said compartmentalized it, I think, at the start of the show. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:04 Like, everybody I need to, everybody watching this thing to have a, you just, okay? I need two's back right now because I need, I need, I need to laugh a little bit. I can't sit here and wallow for the next hour. I can't hear a word you're saying. I can't hear a word you're saying. How about now? I can hear you know. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:30 There we go. All right. Because we got, let's not a whole flavor at this point. We're going to move forward. with this. This is what you guys presumably came here for. All right. All right.
Starting point is 00:31:45 Polls. Let's go to the polls. Okay. Polling Canada. The justice system here. I'm going to pull it up. The justice system working against is, sorry, the justice system is working against the interests of citizens, 504%. Protecting the interests of citizens somehow some
Starting point is 00:32:00 September 7th. Less than 30% of Canadians think the government, or think the justices is protecting the interests of citizens. I would say that those numbers seem a little bit low, although there are quite a lot of government employees who are completely detached from reality. PHAC to take over vaccine injury program after global news investigation,
Starting point is 00:32:28 the Public Health Agency of Canada will take over the troubled vaccine injury support program, BISP, after global news investigation revealed serious flaws in its operation and administration practices. Exero had received $50.6 million taxpayers dollars. 33.7 million
Starting point is 00:32:48 has been spent on administrative costs while they've now received $54.1 million and spent $36.3 million on administration costs with 18.1 being paid
Starting point is 00:33:05 to Canadians. It underestimated the number of injury claims this would get initially predicting 40 per year. Cins have been filed more than 1,700 people await decisions on their claims. And keep in mind that most people don't even know this exists. Correct. People are showing up in the comments saying that everything is getting choppy as all hell or terrible connection. I don't know. The internet seems to be fairly overloaded
Starting point is 00:33:42 since the old Charlie Kirk thing. Everything looks fine on our end. I don't know. Is everybody having problems? Let's just, here, let's take two minutes. We'll see what the comments say, because I can see you rough audio. For who?
Starting point is 00:34:00 For everyone? Yeah. Because I hear you clear as a whistle there, too. Choppy as fuck. I don't know what's going to run. Rough audio. Well, here's what we can do. We're going to post the show after it's done,
Starting point is 00:34:18 and everything on our end looks clean as it gets, so I don't know what to say. Yes, crackling for both of you. Well, isn't that great? We try and interject some, we're going to change the... Even Kevin says it's not good. You sound great on my end.
Starting point is 00:34:37 Yeah, and you, like, you know, with a grain of salt sound as good as you ever do. There. We'll remove news. I'm still here. You're still there. Welcome to the mashup, Sean.
Starting point is 00:34:57 Yes, welcome back to the mashup. People on the podcast, what the heck is going on when I upload this? Yeah, is saying at chop chop. And we're still getting shop, shop. We're just going to keep going with this.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Yes, hopefully it gets better. Our audio is fine. And it's, If nothing else, it gets downloaded locally. So the clean version will be on Spotify. That's right. Okay. Let's switch to this. Police say category man tunneled into upstairs neighbor's unit after a dispute.
Starting point is 00:35:27 Police say a woman had been having ongoing issues with the neighbor directly below until the 6400, on 6400 block of Coch Hill Road Southwest. Her early said there had been one or two interactions between the male neighbor and police over the past couple of months where there was concern for his mental health. Issues was enough. The woman left her residency for a period. time and when she came home she couldn't enter her house because it's been locked from the inside once she was inside she discovered a strange scene where uh behind the fireplace there was a large
Starting point is 00:35:55 pole on the floor the police say looked into and had been cut appeared to connect to the suite below so the guy tumbled up locked her out of her house and it was like you're not getting back in lady and yeah yeah so that's that's a little creepy uh interesting though it's it's funny how he's not named uh it is Yes, I also noticed that. Yeah, which is interesting because call back to a few months ago where the woman sprayed a water gun over the fence of her backyard and was charged with firearms offenses in Ontario,
Starting point is 00:36:30 and she was named and lost her job because of it. Phil says it sounds like we're underwater. No, no, that's just the economy. Cardi says he understands frustrations of pro-independence Albertans. We should probably just... Quoted, I understand the frustrations in the development of the resources and province realizing the full potential of Alberta.
Starting point is 00:36:55 The world admires and respects our country. We're not perfect, but the world wants what we have. We're stronger together, Carney said. You know, it's really interesting, Sean, when you look at this, because if he actually understood us, he would probably approach things slightly differently. He would stop being, you know, unnecessarily punitive. towards this province. And it's funny because you'll get people talking on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:37:27 You'll see media pilots do this where they say, you know what, as much as Alberta wants to complain, they are by far the wealthiest province in Canada. And it's basically the equivalent argument of saying, I cut off half your dick, and it's still bigger than mine, so what are you planning about? And meanwhile, on our end, we're like, you cut half my dick off. Sharon Cowr, served as the Deputy Chief of Staff of Former Liberal Finance Minister Bill Morenoll
Starting point is 00:38:02 says Pollyev pushing a toxic narrative on Canada's foreign worker policy. I think it's the actual foreign worker policy that's toxic, but maybe that's just me. liberal MPs, there's a whole bunch of them now. Seven out of eight here, I'm going to pull up this tweet. Seven out of eight Yukon liberal MLAs will not seek MPs. MLA Liberal cabinet minister and MLA for Riverdale South announced today that you will not exceed re-election. The only liberal MLA running again is Jeremy Harper. Now, that's weird because they're the incumbents.
Starting point is 00:38:45 And they all just said, yeah, we're all out. We don't want to do this anymore. There's more to this story, and I don't know what it is, but there's more to this story because you don't just quit a winning team. We'll keep an eye on it. You want to show the video of Niagara Detention Center?
Starting point is 00:39:10 Yeah, yeah, I do, actually. Remember what we're saying about... Paso! Paso! Let's go! Give him to... us. They're chanting that about
Starting point is 00:39:27 oh, what is his name again? Daniel Seneca. Who goes by the name Danny and has the preferred pronouns she or her and recently asked to go to jail in a women's prison. Correct. Two is you you disappeared. Can't hear you.
Starting point is 00:39:51 Can't hear you. This is how mashup 175 is going to go. I can't hear what you're saying. I can't hear you. Mashup 175. folks, maybe it's just not meant to be. Maybe today is just... Is this working? Yeah, it's working now.
Starting point is 00:40:11 I mean, maybe MASHIP 175 was just meant. We're going to talk about Charlie. We're going to get the heck off. No, no, no, no. We are going to figure this. The fuck out, John. Well, okay.
Starting point is 00:40:21 I was saying to you, the Niagara detention center reminds me of Wyatt Earp standing out front of the courthouse. And the angry mob comes and they're like, let us give them to us right now. We want to hang them, right? Except for Wyatt Earp, it's usually the gang wanting their gang member back. And he's like, you can have them,
Starting point is 00:40:39 but you're going to have to take me in a rush. And I'm going to take you and you and you. But, you know, civil unrest. The justice system figures itself up. Now what the cops need to do is just be like, oh, actually, you know what? We decided you're free to go. Like when they were chanting, give them to us, give them to us.
Starting point is 00:40:59 They should have been like, you know what? Actually, I left that hand. Bankers at home. Dude, yeah, just, what don't you come back later? Just come back. Go, go say hi to the crowd. Come back later.
Starting point is 00:41:13 It'll be fine. Ottawa, considering scrapping tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, I'm going to pull this up. It says, according to NANOS research, a survey with CTB News, which found 62% of response either support or somewhat support removing 100% tariffs tax, sorry, on all Chinese-made EVs
Starting point is 00:41:32 in the hopes that China may remove tariffs against can crops like canola. I mean, isn't it funny that eventually, it's almost like twos was right. It's almost as though twos was right, Sean. He said that we shouldn't have these tariffs in place in the first place. And then actually we're jumping ahead a tiny bit. But Ottawa just announced $370 million in subsidies
Starting point is 00:42:03 for the EB industry. in Canada just the other day did you see that did you see that the subsidies for the eb industry yes now technically
Starting point is 00:42:18 they said that they're for the kernel industry but this is a patch on a patch on a patch and the underlying issue the reason why the 370 million subsidies is even on the table is because of the tariffs on Chinese ebs
Starting point is 00:42:35 in an attempt to have a protectionist environment for Canadian-made EVs. So let's be clear, even though they said it's for canola. They said it's for canola. But the reason why that $370 million exists is because of the EV industry. So at the end of the day, this is not for canola producers. This is not for Western Canada. That $370 million is to shut up Western Canada so that they can deal with the bullshit
Starting point is 00:43:04 that was caused by protecting the. eb industry. Go back to the start. That's where the rock fell in. Oh, you're going to put that in. Okay. Docs. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:43:19 Okay. This is what he puts. We must protect the children from this. This is Daniel Smith. And she's holding up an Archie Comics. Okay. And then Toos goes, I fixed it for you.
Starting point is 00:43:33 And I mean, yeah. I mean. Yeah. So I, for those of you listening along, I had taken that actual picture from the book where the one boy is filating another boy. And I put that over top of the Archie Comics. And I ratioed the fuck out of him, actually. My reply got way more traction than his original post did. And then he responded by blocking me.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Yeah. Well, I mean, like, here's the thing is that this is multiple people. in multiple levels of our mainstream media because not only did the cartoonist make it and intentionally, either he didn't understand what he was making the cartoon about or he's intentionally misleading.
Starting point is 00:44:27 Okay? And then that went to an editor. And the editor either didn't understand what was going on or intentionally misrepresented it by allowing that cartoon to be public. in his newspaper. So this is multiple levels of engagement in the legacy media that is either ignorant or malicious. And when you get, when you call them out on it and when you point it out and when the entire masses are crying out and saying, this is fucking bullshit and you're lying to us, the response is we're not, we're going to silence you for the next time we speak.
Starting point is 00:45:06 you don't hate the media enough here's here's one other thing this ties into it here some guy named Jared Jettland am I the only one who didn't realize until today that this is a strap on these gay panic 2.0 dipshits are such soft fuckers
Starting point is 00:45:26 and that was a response to that tweet that I had done and in one of the pictures one of the child's is sucking on a strap on of the other child. But that's not really the argument you think it's making Jared. And in fact, you're kind of making everybody think
Starting point is 00:45:47 that you and other Jared's have things in common. Here, here is, okay, so this is a mural outside. Well, here, I'll read it. The artwork confirmed by Banksy, via on Instagram, as post captioned, simply, Royal Courts of Justice London depicts a black and white stencil of a robe judge in traditional, wig and gown, wielding a gavel to strike a prone protester on the ground.
Starting point is 00:46:10 The protester holds a placard splattered with red paint. And you can see it there. Okay, there's the picture. And then I think it's the next one. They've got it covered and they're getting rid of it, said mural. Yeah. And they do a shitty job of getting rid of it. So you can still see it faintly.
Starting point is 00:46:31 And that's probably more of a pronounced statement than than the original one was, to be honest with you. So, yeah, free speech. Free speech is dying in the UK. Sorry, I'm just been on the back end, folks. I've been listening to, so on X, it is glitching, weirdly. And I was just checking on Rumble. Rumble seems to be better.
Starting point is 00:46:59 That's my, my just quick take on it. So if you're listening to the show and you're trying to find, like, what the heck go to the Sean Newman podcast. rumble and it seems to be better there. I could be wrong. Maybe I didn't listen long enough. Or give the mashup on YouTube a try. I did notice that like the day that Charlie Kirk got assassinated,
Starting point is 00:47:21 Twitter almost wasn't even working right. It was just and I assume that they're just so overloaded and still so overloaded. Next, next article. 10 more, 10 more beer stores shutting down this weekend in Ontario. We've been following all the shutdowns. They have to keep 300 open to get a giant. $225 million. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:42 Yeah. bailout. Yeah. So, I mean, just 10 more shutting. We all know it's going to go. They're going to close down to 300, but they're going to keep 300 open until the end of the year. So, I mean, it's just another headline that we're keeping track of. Carney says a Canadian canola producers have been hit hard by Chinese tariffs.
Starting point is 00:48:04 So we're stepping in. This is what twos are talking about with major investments to help them, as well as other agriculture. here. I'll pull up that tweet. Currently pledges for $7 million incentives for Canola sector and wake of Chinese tariffs. So this is the headline. You were talking about... I didn't hear anybody in the media pointing out
Starting point is 00:48:21 the fact that this is essentially an EV subsidy. We have here. I'll pull this up. Yes. Sorry. So I'm not going to show this video either. You know, but the other thing that happened is
Starting point is 00:48:37 the 23-year-old Irna Zerutska fled Ukraine seeking safety from the war and hoping for a new beginning only to be attacked on the Charlotte Light Rail. Her life was cut short thanks to a 34-year-old DeC Carlos Brown Jr., who has been in and out of prison for the last 15 years. He walks by her, stabs her twice. That's a gruesome video to watch as well. He's sitting behind her, and then he's like,
Starting point is 00:48:59 oh, fuck it. He takes out a knife, opens it up, stabs her in the neck, and then leaves. And you didn't hear anything about this in the mainstream media for days until, oh, somebody says YouTube has good audio, by the way, if anybody wants to switch over to there or whatever, WWW,
Starting point is 00:49:17 switch over to YouTube and follow us on there. Yeah, actually, that's a great point. For once YouTube, of all the places, YouTube, YouTube comes through. Yes, so I don't know why. But, yes, okay. So here's the thing with this,
Starting point is 00:49:36 is that nobody in the mainstream media covered this for days and even when they did, they did it very much. I'm barely going to touch this with a 10 foot pole. This is a beautiful woman who got a beautiful white woman who got stabbed in the neck, completely randomly senselessly on public transit by a black person, which is everything that the mainstream media hates talking about. It was all combined. I guarantee you if this had been a white person stabbing some transgender blue-haired crazy person,
Starting point is 00:50:15 you know, the first knife stab goes, you know, it gets blocked by her step to ring, and then the second and third one go through and she starts spouting pronouns all over the side of the boss. That would have been the front page of everywhere. But this got no fucking coverage. I'm just sharing for people here. I'm just going to copy this. I'm going to toss in the chat too. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:50:36 I'm doing two things as of once here. Yep. But there, I posted the YouTube link in the chats. So people want to just click on that if they're having issues with audio there. There's somewhere for them to land. Kendryden is the next and passed away at the age of 78. So, you know, hockey family. Did I ever tell you about Ken Dryden?
Starting point is 00:51:01 No, I don't think he did. Oh. So he, uh, Well, my hometown in Saskatchewan back before Hockeyville was an actual thing. It was like the OG Hockeyville. There was a big fundraiser. We had, there's nothing, like, there's nothing about this on the internet because it's so long ago. But Kendraud and came to our town a bunch of times and then like him, Gordy Howe, Tiger Williams,
Starting point is 00:51:29 Sergei Fedorov played a whole bunch of like celebrities at the time. But keep in mind, this is like the early 90s. So they had this big fundraiser hockey game at Sask Place in Saskatoon. And so it was all these, you know, all-time greats in the NHL playing a bunch of celebrities, but it was early 90s celebrities. So it was like, well, Alex Trebek was on there and Dave Kulieu and Alan Thick from growing pains. And it was this really cool thing. But Ken Dieden really helped spearhead that.
Starting point is 00:52:04 and it was a big fundraiser for my town to get a new rink. And so I met him a couple of times. I've got to sign a copy of his book. Yeah, class act all around. There, I tossed it in X as well. You're not even listening to you. You're not even listening. I'm listening to you, but I'm also, I'm thinking of all people watching.
Starting point is 00:52:24 You're always sad because we don't spend enough time covering hockey stories. And I've got a really good, feel good, personal story about what it, what just happened here. And you're just like, I'm just going to send note links. I am worried about all of our listeners. I'm not. I want to tell my story. Businesses rank being stifled by red tape as a bigger threat than Trump's terrorist new report finds. The Business Council of Canada, a non-partisan group.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Tuesday is right. A self-pat on the back to twos. The Business Council of Canada, a non-partisan organization that represents businesses across the economy, found that Canada's regulatory burden is growing rapidly with the number of government requirements now topping 321,000, an increase of 37% since 2006. The report identifies a wide range of examples of dubious red tape, including multiple and overlapping environmental, social, and governance, ESG frameworks, lags of nearly 250 days to get a building permanent and overlapping federal
Starting point is 00:53:24 and provincial privacy legislation. This is what we've been talking about forever. Get the stupid laws off the books and people. likes to be able to build things in this country again. You want to show a video of, yeah, show me your Nepal's. Nepali, uh,
Starting point is 00:53:44 I walked into that one, didn't have votes. All right. Should Nepali? Okay. Who put the question mark on the telepropter? Everybody knows Ron reads it. Anyway,
Starting point is 00:54:01 Nepali Prime Minister, K.P. Sharma, oil, Ollie resign Tuesday, Tuesday is demonstration. The streets are in the country's capital, setting fire to the parliamentary building, despite the lift of the band Monday night. What's gone on, 22 people, yeah, as the video is playing, 22 people have been killed during the protests in Nepal. It's been dubbed Gen Zee protests. These were predominantly led by students and young civilians, frustrated by nepotism, corruption, and economic disparities, a viral social media trip and exposed a lavish lifestyle of politicians' children.
Starting point is 00:54:35 They call them Nepot kids. such as luxury cars and overseas travels contrasting with widespread poverty. The immediate spark was a government September 4th ban on 26 social media platforms, including Facebook, X, YouTube, WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok, for failing to register under new rules seen as an attempt to silence anti-corruption campaigns. So there's a government in the world that when too many people were talking about the bullshit that they were doing, and the nepotism and the corruption, they made it harder.
Starting point is 00:55:10 They introduced a bunch of laws that the social media companies would have had to adhere to, otherwise they aren't allowed to share anything on social media. Does this sound familiar to anybody else? Civil unrest is spreading to us. It's happening everywhere.
Starting point is 00:55:28 We haven't even got to the UK yet, you know? Well, we did with the Banksy, but yeah. It's true, with Banksy, but we got more coming on, what did he call it? Muppet. Anyways, we'll get to that. National building projects.
Starting point is 00:55:43 Okay, there's a couple of things here. One, Tim, Tim Houston, Premier of Nova Scotia. Yeah. It says, Wind West has a potential to make Nova Scotia an energy superpower and transform their economy. Yeah, but the most important part of this is the second sentence. Now, I just listen to what I'm saying, and this is a direct quote, with the support from Ottawa
Starting point is 00:56:07 we can bring it with the support from Ottawa we can make Nova Scotia more self-reliant with the support from Ottawa
Starting point is 00:56:24 are you saying that's contradictory this is a guy who just a few weeks ago told everybody that walking through the woods would create force fires, and that's only the second stupidest thing he's said recently. Then you have a Blacklock's PM Mark Carney names previously announced ventures as First Nation building projects
Starting point is 00:56:55 to be fast-tracked by cabinet. This includes a nuclear research program licensed five months ago. And then there's a tweet here. Let's just frame this a little bit here. Okay. So Mark Carney, and now, that there's a bunch of critical projects that are in the national interest
Starting point is 00:57:16 that the government of Canada is going to be fast-tracking. And it turns out that all of them are things that had been previously approved, and none of them are fucking pipelines. Go ahead. This was the list of somebody done up here. LNG Canada Phase 2, complete federal and provincial assessment
Starting point is 00:57:39 in 2016, FPM Harper, authorized to joint Canada BC Environmental Assessment in 2015, Darlington Nuclear Generating Station, SMR. modular reactors. Thank you. Ontario approved OPEGs construction plan in May 2025, following a license issued in April 2025. Foreign McVenna Bay Mine constructions more than 50% complete as of August, 26, 2025. He just goes on and on and on red. So the point is, is like, this is me going down the,
Starting point is 00:58:09 street and saying that bridge is in the national interest and I approve it. That bridge that's already there? Yeah. That field over there is in the national interest. That field was there before the country was. But I approved it and given me adulation. And in the midst of all of this, there isn't a single fucking pipeline approval. Now, having said that, there aren't a whole lot.
Starting point is 00:58:42 of companies interested in investing in Canadian pipelines right now. And so if you were going to do anything as a country, you would have to put in shit tons of guarantees and you would have to have a whole bunch of potential liability on, like you would have to just give them all kinds of guarantees like what Jason Kennedy tried to do with the trans, like the one that went into the states. I'm blanking on the name. Anyway. I'm also blanking on the name.
Starting point is 00:59:17 I'm trying to help you out. Actually that, but several times over. And so nobody's interested in investing it. And for everybody's saying, well, maybe it's just because maybe it's just because pipelines aren't really that good of an investment. No, motherfucker. Because the pipelines are still getting built all over the world. If the construction magically stops at the imaginary Canadian border,
Starting point is 00:59:41 it's not a case of the business case magically stopping there it's the regulations starting there remember that time five minutes ago we're talking about all the red tape in ottawa this is that on fucking steroids and so daniel and she's super happy with how things went what the fuck is there to be happy about we're in a country where we can't even we can't get pipelines on their own. We can't even get the government to jump in and save pipeline projects. People in fucking Ontario are losing their goddamn minds. You've got some baby rapist wanting to get into a woman's prison.
Starting point is 01:00:30 At what point is Western Canada going to say that we are just not culture the same as the rest of these Eastern fucking weirdos? And look, I get it. I get it. There's probably some of you in some middle of the, middle of the nowhere, Ontario who are like, hey, you know what? That isn't me. And I get that. It's just, it's an absolute damn shame that the 90% of grifting, despicable assholes.
Starting point is 01:01:03 To all of our Ontario or Eastern listeners, we love you. We do. It's just, you got a bunch of duties out there. And I get it. I'm a friend minority, too. It's fine. Here's something interesting. The NDP, there is a headline.
Starting point is 01:01:24 Well, I mean, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I got something for this. I got something for this, Sean. Wait, wait, wait, wait. The NDP are not a serious party. Have we not been saying? The NDP. Have we not been saying this for like 150 mashups?
Starting point is 01:01:41 Is it 170 matchups? It's a lot, Tews. We've been saying this for a long time. And now there is a headlop. line, the NDP remains an unsurious party for a serious time. There it is. Honestly, out of all the times where we've been like, we covered this a few weeks ago and now the mainstream media is picking it up, this is them literally years later getting
Starting point is 01:02:08 across the finish line. Like, welcome to the party, pal. I used our headline. We've been saying the NEPA are not a serious party. for it is like I for this yeah um do you want to show the david epa video yeah i assume you want to talk about it i guess just for a step sure sure so this is david cover mine that i see behind me it doesn't fucking matter it doesn't matter he looks like an idiot sorry sorry i'm going to it doesn't matter how many bedlays you got
Starting point is 01:02:58 My old days of watching wrestling. Oh, man. Well, I mean, classic NDP, if you ain't sharing, people ain't caring. It doesn't. Oh, man, those were great days of wrestling.
Starting point is 01:03:18 Sorry, folks. I'm having a flashback to watching the rock do the rock things. We've been following drivers, okay? Just like the different drivers in general. There's like, I don't know, 15 videos this week.
Starting point is 01:03:36 Tews, I assume you want to show a couple. I can talk about the driver charged in Richmond Hill daycare crash. Vene Kumar Gupta. We're definitely going to talk about that. Yeah, well, okay, well, I'll start there. Seven children are wrong with three staff members were taking the hospital, where an 18-month-old toddler was pronounced dead. Two children are still on a critical condition.
Starting point is 01:03:53 All of other stuff are non-life-threatening injuries. A seven-year-old man, Vinay Kumar Gupta. Oh, just real quick. Let's look at the comparison between the two articles. Here's from City News, Toronto. Driver, that's all it is. It's a 70-year-old male driver. Right.
Starting point is 01:04:12 70-year-old male driver. Obvious question? Why didn't they announce the name? I mean, they did for the woman with the water gun. Why didn't they say who it is? Well, it's because if you go to the Sun article, his name is Vinay Kumar Gupta. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:33 Yeah. Here, I want to show this. We're not going to be able to fix this problem until we're talking about it honestly. He drove into a daycare. And killed an 18-month-old baby. Yeah. And injured six others, including, I think, one or two critically? It said all two children are still in critical condition. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:00 I actually don't know what to say on that. Two others were in critical condition. Yeah, through a daycare. There's other videos. Do you want to show, well, I don't know. Yeah. Let's just show a little bit. He disconnected the trailer.
Starting point is 01:05:27 He disconnected the Rajpura trailer. All right. Next one. This one's producing. Now we've been seeing this. Move your fucking bike. Get out the fucking way. So we started talking about this last week.
Starting point is 01:05:46 Remember the guy in the mopeds, stalling car traffic? Well, it's happening more and more. We're seeing that. Here's a bus that went through, what was it? Crashed in the wall in Wayne Drexki Drive and happened yesterday.
Starting point is 01:06:01 So that was a few days ago, but right through the wall. just a sec here Eli, we're live on the show, man. What's going on? I'm not embarrassing you. All right, we'll talk soon. That's guest host to Vesper. Shout out to Vesper, wherever he's at.
Starting point is 01:06:28 So you got the bus crashes there. Yeah, well, I mean, immigration in Canada is really breaking down barriers. You got this one. Tractor trailer crashes into bus shelter in Toronto West end. Okay, so there's another. like it just goes on and on and on and on and on.
Starting point is 01:06:47 There's literally about eight of these. Just this week. Just this week. If that, oh, this is a good one. Someone managed to drive into, I'm pretty sure that's cheating.
Starting point is 01:07:08 You remember the Vancouver airport one from like, last week was that two weeks ago? How did they get there? How did they get there? Like, what is going on? But, you know, this will be the trend we follow, I'm sure, for the next 50 mashups, because this isn't getting better anytime soon. It just seems to be getting worse and worse.
Starting point is 01:07:26 Okay, let's switch over to some goofy. If that wasn't goofy enough, let's switch over to some goofy. Okay, Metro Links, an Ontario government corporation has obtained permission from the federal government to hire an executive director at $220,000 a year as a temporary foreign worker. so look i i get it okay temporary foreign workers have infiltrated our government our prime minister is a temporary foreign worker shan but that doesn't mean that they all need to be yeah and this is this is this is a good clip did you watch this clip pull it up pull it up come on twos pull it up get your act together here pull it up i'm just i'm just going to reload it here a quick
Starting point is 01:08:13 good morning is probably a brine from northern perspective um one of one of the things What kind of shocks me is the lack of attention that the state-funded media has put on this issue since it became blatantly apparent. Where did the audio go? What's going on? What's going on? This is on CBC. This is so weird. This is so weird.
Starting point is 01:08:39 What's going on? So it looks like we're just having some connection issues with the question and answers. You're having some connection issues with the rest of the fucking country. pricks. The northern perspective gets to ask a question. And when it happens, all of a sudden, all the sound goes away. So, yeah, that's, that's, yeah. Study estimates, 2023, Canadian wildfires will cause 82,000 premature deaths globally.
Starting point is 01:09:08 That's the headline. Yeah, that seems, that seems totally reasonable. 83,000 people died. 83,000 people died because of, of the 2023 wildfires. Now, if you remember, when we were doing
Starting point is 01:09:24 climate arsonists of the week, technically those should all be murders, shouldn't they? Technically, yes. You have this. Human waste contamination forces closure of Berry City Hall Fountain.
Starting point is 01:09:38 The city of Barry announced the early closure of City Hall Fountain due to unsanitary conditions setting acts of animalism and contamination from human race. Tews, what does it mean when it says
Starting point is 01:09:48 contamination from human waste. It means people are pooping in the pool. Like, it used to be a redneck thing. Like, Jeff Foxworthy, he's got the joke. If you've ever peed in a pool that you are not currently inside of, you might be a redneck. Well, you know what? I can appreciate the desire to take a shit in front of City Hall.
Starting point is 01:10:13 Okay? I get where you're coming from. But I don't think this is that. Here's CTV. More Canadians feeling sense of national pride stack Canada shows, according to the latest data from Canadian Social Survey, self-reported Pride in Canada is up from last fall to 76% among citizens from 68% in 2024.
Starting point is 01:10:36 Those numbers seem really fucking high. But even within that, I just want to point out, you've got Canadians age 75 plus, 91% of them are proud to be Canadian. Canadian. Canadians age 25 to 34, 69% are Canadian. The bottom two pie charts are the old people and the young people. The young people are significantly more disillusioned with this country. You have the city of Hamilton in Canada has ordered that a man removed cameras from his home after his camera captured video of three separate homicides.
Starting point is 01:11:16 Yes. So they passed new bylaw saying that the only thing your cameras can record is, is within the property itself. And he's actually looking at getting a special injunction and getting special permission. And he needs to provide sufficient documentation to show that it's in the police interest that he have these cameras. The fact that the cameras have caught three separate people being...
Starting point is 01:11:41 You're catching too many... We do not want to catch any of these violent crimes. You can't have these cameras. The reason why they don't want them up there is because every time somebody does something stupid in Ontario, it ends up on this show. Why Vancouver's decision to host a Harry Potter attraction quickly became controversial. Jake G. Gabriel-Longing's actions against a trans commuter is so egregious that I think we need to look at it changing our minds on this. Said Vancouver City counselor, Lucy Maloney. What was she talking about?
Starting point is 01:12:20 She along with fellow opposition counselor, Sean Orr, called for the Park Board to reconsider the Harry Potter. Potter forbidden forest experience. Are we serious? No, no, we are not. We are not a serious country. The NEP is not a serious party. This is not a serious country. None of this is serious.
Starting point is 01:12:38 This is all just goofy ass shit. That's why we call it the goofy news. The Coast Guard smoked another Cokeboat. Operation Pacific Viper. You can, you probably want to show the video, I assume. Yeah. I mean, because them lighting up a boat over and over and over again.
Starting point is 01:13:00 A couple of them. Two minutes. They had seized coke. They had arrested the guys and the boat was sitting there. And then they just made sure it ain't coming back up. They fired a warning shot. So we posted the first video last week. This is a follow up on that.
Starting point is 01:13:26 I would assume you're going to see more of people that. Ford tells unemployed young people seeking work to look harder. Is that a little bit out of fucking touch? Just maybe. The highest youth unemployment rate in Canada in major centers. Two of them, the top two, are in Ontario. It's just that you're not trying hard enough to find a job. Spotted in Montreal, an infamous line electric bus was seen on fire.
Starting point is 01:13:54 The company is still under multiple investigations. Taxpayer money is literally going up with flying, folks. Well, here, I'm just going to show this as a stale. I just, I don't know what studies have been done. I'm really curious as to the carbon footprint that we're looking at right now. Do you think that, do you think that these EV buses, how many more EV buses is it going to take to make the EV buses carbon neutral with all of that? After this? A few more.
Starting point is 01:14:28 A few more. Well, we have to get more bus. because the last few burned down. And we need to make everything green again. You know, I didn't think we were going to talk about this guy again for a long time. But Trudeau, I don't choose to talk about it every time. But Trudeau returns to the world stage as a guest speaker. Here's what he said during his speech in Korea.
Starting point is 01:14:50 The rules-based order of the past 80 years has delivered prosperity and stability, unlike anything humanity has ever experienced, Trudeau said during his keynote address at the 26th World Knowledge Forum. If I was going to put anyone on a world knowledge form, Justin Trudeau would not be my pick, especially when it comes over the price tag of $100,000. Well, that's exactly it. And doesn't that seem a little bit fucking suspicious,
Starting point is 01:15:13 if I'm being honest, that Justin Trudeau, in the same way that Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, once they retire from politics, they charge hundreds of thousands of dollars for speaking engagements, at least with Barack Obama, you can understand it a little bit because the man's well-spoken.
Starting point is 01:15:32 But just to Trudeau, I'd say if there's one thing, but there's a million things that guy taught us. But one of the many things that that guy taught us over the last 10 years is that whenever that dip shit gets in front of a microphone, he does more sputtering than cold-star in dollars to speak at your event just because you think it'd be interesting to listen to? Fuck no. This is fucking money laundering. we just don't know exactly how yet. I can almost promise you. Montreal group urges city to bar
Starting point is 01:16:06 Israel cycling team from Grand Prix. A Montreal-based group has asked Mayor Valerie Plant to bar the Israel Premier Tech Cycling Team from competing in the Grand Prix de Montreal. On Sunday, Palestinian, well, I don't know. And then it goes on. Okay, well, here, I'll break it down for you. Yes.
Starting point is 01:16:24 So they want to bar the Israeli cycling team from the Grand Prix. which actually I'm in favor of. I think that that would totally make things fair because I don't know if you've ever seen the way cyclist dressed, but I'm sure that the Palestinian cycling team got thrown off a building. The self-described ringleader of a theft organization of Winnipeg, you can't make this headline up,
Starting point is 01:17:00 is suing one of the last remaining business owners in a Winnipeg area for beating him after he tried to steal a car, leaving him with feelings of worthlessness. Yes. So the statement of claim says that this career thief is being left with feelings of worthlessness after being beat up in mid-theft and that it's actually he's trying to sue for damages because it's impacted his future earning potential. I can't steal any more cars if I'm in this wheelchair.
Starting point is 01:17:40 You've got to pay. You've got to pay because you've affected. my livelihood. Do you have any idea how many people depend on me to fucking rob the gas stations of their smokes and scratchers? I mean, truth is stranger than fiction.
Starting point is 01:18:00 I can't outrun the cops with a broken leg, asshole. See TV news. Global warming link to consumption of sugary drinks, ice cream, and new research. No, we don't need to read anything into this. Just the headline, folks. There you go.
Starting point is 01:18:20 New Quebec polling data. We've been kind of paid attention to this one as well. And here I'll pull up up on screen so people can see. Yes. So the Parti-Khebeqa seems to be doing fairly well. And the incumbent Coalition Avenue, Quebec is tanking. And then if you go below it, here I'm going to kick you out for a second to show you. Here's the article underneath.
Starting point is 01:18:47 Here's the source. Le Cac de. Desormes desirier, Le PCQ, at menace des fixity. Now, for those of you who don't speak French, what this translates to is roughly speaking. The CAC's enormous ass is threatening to asphyxiate the party, Quebec. Desormes-deriere, menace des fixier. I think we should have a new segment where Tews reads everything in French. I think that would be great.
Starting point is 01:19:24 Jesse Klein, Kearnie's plan to reduce red tape already mirrored in bureaucracy. Stats can't report. No way. Do I need to read it anymore? We're going to reduce red tape. Okay, but there's more red tape
Starting point is 01:19:38 associated with that red tape. So you can't really reduce the red tape without incurring other red tape. This is exactly why nothing gets done in this fucking joke of a country. A man has been arrested in the UK for calling someone a Muppet. I
Starting point is 01:19:53 you could show it I mean you could certainly show the video if you like it's all everything just froze up oh well we're having fun on mashup 175 folks twos is froze everybody's froze pets heads are falling off this is the way it seems to be going right now twos where'd you go I don't know
Starting point is 01:20:13 like do I got a co-host here today like is anything going to work is anything going to work it just feels like this is the week it's been you know who's gone I don't know
Starting point is 01:20:33 a guy got called a Muppet or got arrested for calling him a Muppet there I can hear you the whole time everything just froze right at the hell up but here's where it gets in charge are you
Starting point is 01:20:44 what are done don't what are you remember the public who you're apparently to be charon at a Muppet we got a Muppet yeah and you cause a Laman in distress
Starting point is 01:20:53 she's very Right. Well, I'm going to be straight with you guys now. You want to call you. I can feel shaking. He's being arrested. In charge with calling somebody a Muppet. That's the UK right now. Carney surprises many.
Starting point is 01:21:19 Talking about Muppets. Here's a Muppet. Yep. Oh, yeah. Great segue, by the way. Carney surprises many with the peer. at long distance trail race. Yay!
Starting point is 01:21:30 These are going so well for Joe's. Get into the media to cover me while I go for a run playbook. And if we compare the two of them, actually, I think Carney skipped like DeLess than Trudeau did, so good on them for that. You can now stream
Starting point is 01:21:53 that's not what it says here. That's not what it says. You can now steam Roseberry Barton live here. You can now Now, steam. Rosemary Barton Live. You know what else? Steams?
Starting point is 01:22:08 Giant piles of shit. Rosemary Barton, one of Canada's highest paid news broadcasters, can't even get the fucking spelling right in a basic tweet. This is what we pay $1.5 billion a year for, folks. And she didn't even take it down or change it. And meanwhile, you've got Glenn McGregor, who blocked me, by the way,
Starting point is 01:22:32 for calling him out for being a POS. Conservatives post a letter listing their priorities for the fall sitting of parliament, and once again, better proofreading is not among them. Listen, the legacy media, I think as we have shown many times on a weekly basis, should probably not throw stones in a glass house full of semicolons. Show Yoshinobo Yamamo.
Starting point is 01:23:03 he's got a no-hitter with one out to remain, right? Two's, I, I, I, well, that's, so there's, there's another one here before that. So, yeah, so Missou, Missoula, they got a fan onto the field with a chance to, uh, kick a 45-yard field goal to win 25 grand. Oh, I haven't seen this. So this is, this is what happens. So he gets a chance to come out on the field to kick a four, 45-year-old, 45-yard field goal for 25,000.
Starting point is 01:23:38 Yeah, that sounds fun. Yeah, kick a 45-year-old. Kick a 45-year-old. And here's what he does. You hold these shirt up, and it says FKU, Kansas U. Then he kicks the ball at the Kansas sidelines. Okay, here's the deal. You just put it through the uprights and you get 25 grand.
Starting point is 01:24:06 Got it? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I got a better idea though Fuck Kansas you Uh Well Here you go Okay show me the video
Starting point is 01:24:17 This would be like if I got a chance to shoot a You know Hit an empty net from Santa Ice At an Oilers game for 25 grand And you shot it at the other bed And I just flipped off the crowd And then shot the puck at Connor McDavid This is that
Starting point is 01:24:34 You probably wouldn't make it out of that arena live I could be wrong Um Okay No header here let's let's show this okay so this picture has got a no hitter two outs in the ninth here it is show the video the edges holiday right field that ball is hit deep at the wall it's good where it hits whoa oh just scroll it back just slightly can you scroll it back just
Starting point is 01:25:00 slightly can we see where it hits it hits right there right there right where his right there all he had to do was just run a little bit hard and throw a bit of a jump and he could have caught that and he didn't. Yeah, I know. I watch it and I'm like, oh man, sell out, sell out, no hitter. Come on. You spray yourself against that fence. You give it everything you got.
Starting point is 01:25:28 I agree. I agree with you. They lost that game. They two outs into in the ninth with a no hitter. But here's the kicker. This is what happened. MLB on their Twitter account. you might want to turn on your television.
Starting point is 01:25:46 Yoshinobu Yamamoto has a no-hitter through eight innings. The golden rule, the unbreakable rule of no-hitters is that you don't ever talk about the fact that they're pitching a no-hitter. And this is what happened. From the MLB Twitter account, what an asshole. Sticking with the MLB. Show Karen of the day. Okay.
Starting point is 01:26:16 father goes, gets the ball. Yeah. So here, let's break this. He runs over, gets the ball. Gets the ball. Gives it to his kid. And then, oh, Karen jumps in. She felt that she was entitled to have gotten that ball because it landed closer to her. And you can see. And he's scared. He's scared.
Starting point is 01:26:40 Look at him like doing the arm things. And then just to get her to shut up and go away, he gives her the ball. Look at that. She's right in their fucking face. Yeah. Listen. First off,
Starting point is 01:27:03 you just stand there calmly and you tell people like that to fuck off. Secondly, when your small child is there with you and someone's at you like that, you very insistently, but gently place them behind you and you put yourself
Starting point is 01:27:22 between that crazy person and your kid. Everybody sucks in this. Now, to be fair, the Phillies. Everybody sucks, everybody sucks except for Marcus Lemines. I hope I'm saying that right. And then the Phillies. Yeah. Now the Phillies gave them some autographed bats and stuff like that.
Starting point is 01:27:43 And the Marcus guy you're talking about gave him a free trip and an RV. But when something like this happens with you with some HR Mechacaron, you just look her right in the eye you're like you need to shut up you need to sit down and if you make a move to grab that ball I'm going to assume you're attacking my child and I'm going to punch you in one of your shitty boobs
Starting point is 01:28:08 pretty wild she gets right in their girl end up giving her the ball and then yeah the two things the Phillies give him a sign bat bring them underneath and you know and everything and then yeah they get a I mean yeah but you've got it
Starting point is 01:28:23 I agree I'm not disagreeing with you. As a dad, you just got to take a step back side. Let me deal with this. No. This is baseball where nobody's entitled to a ball. If you get it and you rip it out of set hand, which we've shown on this show. Yep. You give it to a kid. The only people entitled to the balls are the kids, no matter what, every time. I caught a puck once at a hitman game. I was, you know how they got the mesh all the way around on the end. Sure. The seat was like just enough off to the side that when someone tried to dump the puck.
Starting point is 01:28:59 It just went right past and got it out of the air. It was, you know, they're having a few beers with some buddies from work. And it's like that classic Don Cherry clip where, you know, if you women are at the game and you're yapping with each other and you're not watching what's happening and then boom, a puck hits you in the face. That's literally what I stopped. Like just and, uh, and Mike would have gotten it right in the kisser. And then gave it to a kid. And then one of the, one of the people in the, in the gold suits comes by and they gave me a couple like, um, uh, gift cards to, uh, cactus club. And I was like, oh, that was kind of cool.
Starting point is 01:29:43 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And the kid got the puck. That's what you do. That's what you do. And if it's somebody you don't like, you let it bounce off their face first and then you everybody knows this show.
Starting point is 01:29:54 Me and twos don't always agree. But I actually really agree. you on this. Like, yes, it's, it's for the kids. 100%. 110%. All right. Okay. Happy news. What a, what a world would day. Happy news. The unprecedented move by Eminton Police publicly object to Crown accepting manslaughter plea and indigenous girls homicide. Eminent Police are objecting to a decision by Crown prosecutors to offer a plea deal to a woman charged with murdering an eight-year-old girl,
Starting point is 01:30:23 an unprecedented move in which the service-laid bear its dissatisfying. action with the organization that prosecutes most of its cases. We're finally getting to a point where the police are ready to speak up and say that this needs to fucking stop. And as bad as it's gotten leading up to it, I'm glad that they're finally doing this. Also, a team of organized bandles cut down 16 speed ticket cameras in Toronto last night. Yes. So what happened the night before that was at the parkside camera that, you know how like,
Starting point is 01:30:56 It's just been mysteriously ending up in the happy news every time this camera gets cut down. And this is the seventh time it happened. And I'm going to come clean with you guys. I love that it keeps happening and I've been putting it in the happy news on purpose. Well, the Ford government says it will remove automatic speed enforcement cameras this fall. If municipalities do not take steps to scrap them, quote, we are exploring alternative tools to enhance traffic safety without the use of automatic speed cameras
Starting point is 01:31:24 that are nothing but a cash grab. And, you know what? It improved traffic safety in this country? A little bit of fucking border control. Community notes. Okay, we got, we're not done yet. I just, I just want to frame this. I just, let me frame this here real quick.
Starting point is 01:31:39 So the main one gets cut down for the seventh time this year. And then that's a big deal. And there's this big, oh, the media is like, oh, it keeps getting cut down. It's so horrible. And then they're like, you know what? Screw you. And that night, they cut down 16 more. This is what we need.
Starting point is 01:31:57 This is what I'm here for. That's why it's in the happy news. Go with Community notes, brother. Community notes. Okay. Okay. So let's start with the Mash bill. Okay.
Starting point is 01:32:07 So we had said last week, this is why we don't announce things too early to. Oh, that's my fault. It is your fault. November 29. But then the UCPA GM is that weekend. And we're like,
Starting point is 01:32:19 okay, wait, wait, wait. A bunch of you who would probably come to what we're doing needs to participate like Chris Simms says in the things that are in the political arena. And so we don't want to pull anyone from that. So what we're doing is we're looking into January, booking a date that we can have that all set up. So January, the mash bill will happen. We're going to confirm everything and make sure we have no problems. We have a tentative date yet, which is not going to be announced yet because we don't want to get out too far in front of things, Sean. Correct. And we're going to, everything's to
Starting point is 01:32:54 still going to be the same. There's going to be 16 teams available. We will have some people there that are going to be a lot of fun to have, you know, curl with. I don't think anybody's going to want to curl with me. Please, if you're putting in a team and want to win something, don't pick me. Just don't pick me. I'm competitive, but I suck. So, I mean, that'll be fun to watch me, you know, suck at curling maybe. But if you're trying to win, probably pick twos on this one. I'm not going to lie. But we're going to have more, more details on that coming soon, but we want to make sure that we're not conflicting with, I don't know, the UCPA jam, because, you know, we need people to be not being conflicted about missing, you know, the UCPA
Starting point is 01:33:35 jam and coming to the Mashbill. We all know where you guys' hearts are. But we're thinking of what's going on here in our communities, and we want people to be involved in that. That's what Chris Simps says every time she comes on the show. So go be involved in the AGM and the Mashpiel. And then the Mashpiel in January. So January is where we're pushing it to.
Starting point is 01:33:54 We'll have more details coming. We want to make sure that they're all locked up and we're not conflicting with things.
