    Apr 4 2022

    Episode 978: Sorry about the first 15 minutes
    Apr 1 2022
    Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter talk about the Liberal climate plan and the upcoming federal budget. Does the plan go too far or not far enough? How dramatic will the budget be?

    Episode 972: Kenney Island
    Mar 7 2022
    Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter talk Jason Kenney's upcoming leadership review. Has a balanced budget and high price of oil helped Kenney? Is 2900 registrants (and counting) for the vote a worrying sign? And has there ever been a segment more likely to get Stephen Carter cancelled than "Sweet Nothings"?

    Episode 1835: The cherry on the pie
    Nov 18 2024

    Corey Hogan and Zain Velji debrief the 2024 U.S. Presidential election - the past (what happened), the present (what should Democrats be doing now) and the future (what this means for Canadian elections to come). Was Harris simply victims of a global anti-incumbency movement? Do early moves tell us we're in for a different kind of Trump presidency? And will the gang be able to keep the location of Stephen's trip to New Zealand secret for the entire time he's gone? Annalise Klingbeil asks the questions and demands answers.

    Episode 1834: Closeouts
    Nov 4 2024

    Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter discuss the strategic possibilities of Danielle Smith's overwhelming endorsement at her leadership review before turning their attention to the final hours of the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election. Does the result mean Danielle Smith has a strengthened hand, one less excuse when things go wrong, or both? Is Harris' last-minute positivity strategy the wrong antidote to continued Trump rage? And is Stephen's latest prediction a dark sign of the apocalypse or a noble act of community service? Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.

    Episode 1832: An object at rest
    Oct 29 2024

    Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter discuss the fizzled Liberal coup, a Pierre Poilievre policy announcement, the BC election results - all while watching and not getting results for the Saskatchewan election. Is there any additional chapter in the Liberal caucus rebellion, or is this the end of the book? Have campaigns forgotten how to matter? And what goes it with hitting .400 in baseball anyhow? Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.

    Episode 1831: On the clock
    Oct 23 2024

    Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter are on the clock. With twelve minutes for each segment, they need to tackle the BC election, the Trudeau revolt, US politics and a mystery bonus section that Zain will graciously let them choose. Is Harris' campaign dying a vibe-based death? Who will win the showdown at the Liberal caucus? And can we all agree we don't care about the Speaker in BC? Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.
