We're back after nearly three weeks since we recorded the Solomon Friedman episode, hope you all enjoyed both parts and know PornHub a little better beyond it being your favourite website.
That was all fun and intriguing, but now it's time to get back to the Back Page News with headlines such as; 'Bouncy castle king jailed for burning down rivals' (3:33), 'Driver tried to switch places with his dog on DUI stop in Colorado town, police say' (17:32), 'German surgeon fired after getting hospital cleaner to assist amputation' (28:33).

This week's episode is a part two feature from last week's episode featuring Solomon Friedman, a top Criminal Defence Attorney in Canada who is the Co-Founder of Ethical Capital Partners (ECP), which just acquired MindGeek, thus making him apart of the ownership team of Pornhub.
This sequel is guaranteed to not be played out as some part 2's are, with lots of new information surrounding some of the outstanding litigation the company faces as well as their compliance with specific jurisdictions they will have to adhere too.
We open the floor to two of our resident journalists, Phalen Tynes-MacDonald and Colman Brown who press into the matters surrounding the impending guidelines being laid out by Canada's heritage ministry as well as some of the issues that were brought to the public's attention by a recent Netflix documentary on the prior owners of the tech giant that is MindGeek.
