26/01/30 Trump’s Global Chaos & Canada’s China Gamble

Headlines, Greenland, Trump’s Western Hemisphere “shopping spree,” and Mark Carney’s China trip...In this episode:00:00 INTRO00:33 CANADIAN HEADLINES- a Winnipeg Jets prospect gets his NHL call-up mid‑haircut at a Winnipeg barbershop- WestJet executives personally test their own brutal legroom and still sign off on it- a stunt skier jumps the Rideau Canal so hard Parks Canada has to issue a “please don’t do this” advisory.03:23 GREENLAND“The island that could break NATO...” Trump talks about taking Greenland “the easy way or the hard way,” reports of invasion planning surface, experts in Canada and Denmark warn it could shatter NATO, and we look at what that means for the Canadian Arctic.10:31 TRUMP THREATENS EVERYONEIn one week, Trump invades Venezuela and says the U.S. will “run” it, casually threatens Colombia, predicts Cuba will fall, pressures Panama over the canal, bullies Mexico over water and tariffs, and slaps 25% penalties on anyone doing business with Iran... and we break down how all of that lands on Canada.18:53 CARNEY'S CHINA GAMBLEPrime Minister Mark Carney flies to Beijing to meet Xi, try to lift tariffs on Canadian canola/pork/seafood, and “recalibrate” Canada’s relationship with China as a hedge against Trump... along with all the risks that come with betting on an authoritarian regime that once jailed two Canadians for 1,019 days.Key questions we dig into:- Could Trump’s obsession with Greenland actually break NATO, and what happens to the “rules‑based order” if the U.S. goes rogue against another ally?- Is Trump using Venezuela as a proof‑of‑concept for grabbing more territory or leverage across the hemisphere, and where does that leave Canada heading into CUSMA renegotiations and the 2026 World Cup?- Is Carney’s China play smart diversification or just swapping dependence on Washington for dependence on Beijing — and can Canada ever really be independent between two superpowers?

25/12/29 Mount Stupid, The Far Right, and Canadian Politics: Dunning-Kruger In Action

Ever notice the people who know the LEAST about politics are often the MOST confident? That’s the Dunning-Kruger effect, and tonight we’re taking it on... in Canadian politics. From “being a liberal is a mental disorder” to “globalist takeover” comment-section warriors, we break down how this psychological bias turns ignorance into absolute certainty (particularly on the right and far-right), and why NONE of us are immune.In [http://immune.In] this special episode, we explain what the Dunning-Kruger effect actually is, how the famous “Mount Stupid” curve works, why some corners of conservative media are such fertile ground for overconfident nonsense, and how to spot (and avoid) becoming a walking Dunning-Kruger meme yourself.If you care about Canadian politics, critical thinking, and not getting owned by your loudest uncle at Christmas, this one’s for you.
