GST is out so Joel is on the wine! Minimum wage is up, so we take a look at the past when women got paid less than men. The newly renovated Majestic got burnt, there are consequences to poor driving, and Nick thinks the RNC is lying about bait cars. Some vegetarians were mad at Montana’s and streamed it live on Facebook. We watch the video and talk about crappy customer service jobs. Sears is closing, so we take a look back on history when we had Zellers and K-Mart. Gander has a shoplifting problem, Corner Brook residents are mad at a pizza store because of an old painting, and there are panthers in Deer Lake.

The boys screwed up the live broadcast of episode 058, so we got some beers and came back to do it properly. After some drunk rambling we finally get into what you’ve been waiting for: the St. John’s municipal election! Voters appeared to be seeking change, with many new faces on council, and Jonathan Galgay, Tom Hann, Ron Ellsworth, and Art Puddister out. Maggie Burton, Hope Jamieson, and Jamie Korab are some of the new additions who have no prior political experience but took their wins easily! We discuss the candidates who ran but didn’t put any effort into campaigning, and Joel doesn’t understand the logic in voting Danny Breen for mayor when Andy Well’s seemed like the better option for taxpayers. Buddy Wassisname are retiring from touring, another CONA program – medical radiography – is frigged up, students aren’t showing up for school and we watch a big brawl video with St. Peter’s Junior High students.

The boys start the show with a wrap up of summer and talking about how school is back. Clarenville’s municipal election is canceled, someone vandalized an election sign in a funny way, and people are comparing Andy Wells to Trump which is complete foolishness. We continue the election chat looking at some St. John’s candidates and wondering why a handful of them aren’t making any effort. We check out an inappropriate ice cream picture from a local shop, someone from the Aquaman crew was stabbed on George Street, and we debate whether or not a “soda tax” is a good idea. Food banks need help, we talk about the health benefits of Kraft Dinner, donating to charities, and we finish up talking about how Joel is doesn’t really have a heart but he wants one.

Note: Since the recording of this episode, Tracy Holmes has provided information on her platform. We will share it next time.

Nick is back! We hear a bit about Nick’s trip, how we survived without him, and a magical Japanese beverage he brought back and got Joel drunk with. Chase The Ace didn’t go, and now it’s finally ending next week somehow. Sunrise Records is opening in St. John’s and we aren’t too confident in it succeeding. Newfoundland has a ton of bars, we’ve been drinking beer wrong, and moose are idiots. We look at some dumb stuff from the St. John’s council including a terrible roundabout, a family trying to open a restaurant getting screwed over, and a second road to Signal Hill. We end the show talking about how VOCM backpedaled on its changes and is going back to its roots of what people know and love.
