Frank Graves is a Canadian Gem. An institution. A Brand. For decades, Frank has been one of Canada's best and most accurate pollsters. He recently came under fire for putting out a poll that suggested Conservatives have all but lost their seemingly insurmountable 2-year 30-point lead over Justin Trudeau's Liberals in two weeks. He's been threatened, panned, insulted, and assaulted over his work, which, as it turns out, seems to be ahead of the curve and entirely accurate. We talked to Frank about: The tire tracks on his back Recent polling and the metrics that went into the latest poll dictated the cratered support of the Conservative Party of Canada. The role Trump/Trudeau's resignation played in the INCREDIBLE bounce back of Liberal fortune.

That’s his former party and he swings in the same circles as a lot of these guys and calls he basically called pathological and how he wouldn’t trust either Smith or Poilievre isn’t compromised.

It's a different show today. Douglas Connors and Paul Atikins from the TrueNorthEagerBeaver stopped by to talk about the pandemic of sick, angry men who never speak about their mental health. What's driving the pandemic of depression and anxiety in Men? What does the societal change in hierarchy mean to men whose expectations don't match their (new) reality? Suicide and ideations for men between the ages of 24-54 are at an all-time high. Why? The roles of men and how they have changed and the role "loss" plays in depressive episodes. Where our values change and the confusion, PTSD from unmet expectations or a forced change. We are reconciling unfair—the responsibility of self and moving away from victim thinking. We're all unwell to some extent, but we never stop to talk about it with other men. Vulnerability creates better communities while helping us realize that we are normal and not alone. Dean, Loch, Douglas, and Paul all have had significant role changes and losses forced upon them in the past 5-10 years. Life-changing consequences are underserved or unfair, but they don't mean you've failed. But it does mean you have to talk to someone when that perception of failure is like an anvil tied to your ankle. It was a great conversation about resilience, vulnerability, and personal responsibility between four men who want to help other men by sharing their experiences.

It's pretty corrupt if you read the recent #NSICOP report that alleges foreign governments pay TRADITIONAL Media outlets, MPs, Senators, and politicians at all levels to work against Canadian interests. The Report detailed allegations that DOZENS of Canadian lawmakers and parliamentarians are "wittingly" working with foreign countries, agents, and lobby groups to undermine Canada's national security and identity. The governing Liberals and The Conservative Party continue to stay Mum on possible members who work for other governments, but we know it's very fucking real. The RCMP have announced an official criminal investigation into DOZENS of elected and appointed officials from the Liberal and COPnservative parties AS WELL ASS an investigation into several "Traditional Media Outlets" who are alleged to have killed, promoted, or deleted stories paid for by India, China, Iran, and Russia. Former media executive Wendy Grey stopped by to discuss this. - Is this the nail in the coffin regarding Trust in ANY Traditional Canadian media outlet? - What do the RCMP investigations say about the seriousness of the conspiracy and possible crimes committed by Canadian politicians and media institutions? - What is NSICOP, and what do the allegations of foreign interference mean for Trust in Media and Politics in Canada? We all knew our political and media institutions were corrupted by foreign money, but does confirmation of what we knew mean anything? Will Canadians take action or retreat into our cultural corners to give Elites and bad actors a pass? - Who the allegations might be directed at and why the Report Didn't "Name Names." - Trust in media stats and the nuclear implication of confirming/destroying our biases. - The Opportunity to turn this culture war into a class war we should all be fighting.

Trudeau Trolls AntiVaxxers Again / MGT VS Fauci / #McJesus Gets His Own Beer 1:06:39

We're back and so is Trudeau with sweet, sweet, sweet vaccines! JT announced he's giving money to his friends at Sonofi to make billions of COVID vaccines just in case, you know, "IT" happens again. Dean and Loc talk about whether or not Trudeau's vaccine funding announcement was meant to troll anti-science dickheads OR if he actually meant it. I mean, this is the kind of announcement that makes hillbillies who hate objective reality, INSANE. Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to take Dr. Anthony Fauci to the woodshed in the GOP's fake QAnon/COVID hearing in Washington DC yesterday. It might have been the funniest shit Dean's ever seen. Marj was talking about dogs and scientism and refused to call one of the most celebrated medical professionals on the planet "Not a science doctor." LOLZ. You have to watch it. Jesus. In the words of Bradley Cooper in The Hangover, "it was like watching Tyson fight a baby." Pure Comedy. The Oilers are BACK in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Canada's team celebrated their WCF win with a Party at McDavid's house, and McDavid got his own beer for his own party. The video evidence of him getting mobbed and hugged by fans who ALSO get their own beer at "Liqurville" is proof positive that Connor McDavid is every man's superstar. Hosted on Acast.

Weekend MAGA / Trump / Alex Jones Meltdown! 1:13:36

We're back, and what a weekend!! The Oilers booked a spot in the Stanley Cup Finals, Donald Trump spent his first weekend as a felon stealing from MAGA fucks, and Alex Jones LOST it on Camera because he's broke AF and can't take it anymore... BWAHAHAHAHAH!! It's easy for Dean to see who the marks are. The grandfathers of the MAGA / Conspiracy / Grift age, Alex Jones and Donald Trump, had very bad weekends. Jones went ham on InfoWars about how hard life is now that Connecticut State Officials are starting to take his shit. Last week, they seized several homes and a couple of bank accounts. This week, they're knocking on the door of his InfoWars studio, where he farms that sweet, sweet bullshit. Trump's broke, too. So he fleeced $60 MILLION from MAGATS in his "I'm a political Prisoner/I'm a convicted Felon!" fundraiser this weekend. He's using it to pay E Jean Carrol because grifters always have a lawsuit behind them. They bounce one to fundraise for the other! We also paid tribute to Loc's stepfather, who passed away, leaving Loc's mom a storage locker full of medieval larping costumes and expensive swords. RIP, Sir Karl. RIP. Hosted on Acast.
