Dog Island

Sorry it's been a while but here is a new episode. We discuss the ongoing pandemic, the Portapique tragedy, a budding Nazi colony in Cape Breton, local Black liberation movements, our wretched city council, Matt Whitman's mayoral aspirations and finally discuss some exciting news for the future of Dog Island. It's a long episode but it is very good. 

We're back! Let's talk about Halifax's BOLD new INNOVATION DISTRICT. Afterwards, we'll learn the secret DARK ORIGINS of THE DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS OF CANADA, AMERICA.

OUR LIVE SHOW FOR MAYWORKS IS TUESDAY MAY 12 AT 7PM AST! TUNE IN AT TWITCH.TV/DOGISLAND69

Everyone is still in their houses. Lots of callers in this one, people from all over "Canada" letting us know what's up their parts of the country. 

Hey folks,

Gonna start doing weekly call in shows over at twitch.tv/dogisland69 every Wednesday from 6:30pm to 8:00pm EST, as long as we're all stuck indoors we might as well talk to one another.

This one is a bit rough because we're still getting our bearings, but we'll get there!

Hugh and Andrew go to the NS NDP policy convention and cut their teeth as real journalists.  Lots of talks about policy and food including information about the NS NDP Socialist Caucus and a conversation with party leader Gary Burrill. 

We're back! The dog pound talks about Christie Blatchford's rotten legacy, the actions in support of the Wet'suwet'en, and the general abysmal state of punditry in "Canada". 

We're live from beautiful downtown Halifax at the Art Bar +Projects giving you a rundown of the best and worst of 2019.

It's a conspiracy theory episode, you'll love it. Chris presents the gang with some compelling Gerald Cotten and QuadrigaCX theories. We also talk about Mayor Pete's involvement in the Loblaws bread fixing scandal. To round it out Graeme teaches us about some record stores in the Mile End and we chat about small business.
