Episode 13: Home Bittersweet Home

On this episode of the podcast, the gang talks about our city of Calgary. What it means to us and the future we see for the city and the province at large. We talk about our careers, the political climate here and the current and future economic states of the city and connect it all to our personal experience. We hope you enjoy it PS: Og's fun fact of the day: Everyone technically has E. coli in their guts and it actually works to keep your gastrointestinal system working properly. It's the O157:H7 variant of the bacteria that causes problems.

Episode 12: Social Media: The Good, The Ads and The Ugly

On this episode of the podcast, the gang focus primarily on social media, what it means to us, what our favourite social media sites are, what are its shortcomings and downfalls, how it affects our mental health and the coping strategies we all have to stay sane in a very social media focused world. We hope you enjoy it!

Episode 10: A Hallmark Christmas Movie

On the final episode of the podcast for the year 2020 the gang discusses our favourite Christmas memories, presents and the difficulties of celebrating the holidays during the Covid times. We also discuss Christmas movies which leads to a conversation about Hallmark movies and love languages. This episode does start with a very short conversation about the current issues our American neighbours are facing regarding the stimulus but it's a short aside from an otherwise cozy and happy episode.  We know it's been a rough year for everyone but we are almost through it and for those celebrating minimally or alone this holiday season, we are thinking of you and we hope that the season will be a joyous one for you regardless of the circumstances. We want to say thank you to everyone for listening to us this year, we appreciate you and we hope you and yours have a Merry Christmas, Happy Holiday and a Fantastic New Year. We will see you in January!

Episode 9: They Try to Silence Us

This is an episode brimming with conspiracy. We explore the allure of conspiracy theories and why they seem so very attractive in this day and age. We also discuss different popular conspiracy theories including the moon landing, Area 51 and UFO landing as well as the illuminati. We also nerd out a little bit about Dr. Who and the monsters that have scared us the most from the show. It's a really fun and lighthearted episode but we hope you learn a little bit from it as well.  Cheers, Oghosa
