About The Erika Barootes Show: How The West Is Run

Welcome to the show where the gloves come off and the spin stops. Erika Barootes has spent twenty years right in the thick of the action, and she is tired of the talking points. If you are looking for a conservative echo chamber, you are in the wrong place. Despite her deep roots in Western movements, Erika holds every single politician to the same relentless standard. She isn't here to make friends in high places; she is here to make sense of what they are doing with your tax dollars.From the desks of punditry to the halls of Parliament, people pay attention when she speaks because she knows exactly how the system of power is built. In partnership with the rapidly growing TrendingPolitics.ca, she breaks down the data and busts the bullshit every single week. Tune in for the context you won't get anywhere else and the raw truth about how the West is really run. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
