Radio Free Ortona

In this episode, we talk about potential improvements to Canada's version of the Westminster system. Then we somehow segway into the pitiable state of the Canadian military. Then we moved onto why the Laurentian elites want to keep western Canada down. We breeze through some cultural appropriation before ending with with and easy pass on how to solve the problems of First Nations in Canada. Something to piss off everyone in this episode. We hope you enjoy.

The Grievous example of cultural appropriation can be found here.

We weren't really sure what we were going to talk about when we started, so we jump right into the middle of a conversation about learning French, move on to the dating habits of Zoomers, then log our complaints about traffic.  We conclude with a discussion about whether or not you can really trust experts.  It's basically a clips show in one shot.  Hope you enjoy.

Today is a Paddy-centric episode as we take a look at where the war in Ukraine is and where we think it's heading.  We talk about what lessons we think we can take from this conflict and apply to near peer conflicts in the furture.

Hello everyone.  It's been a longer hiatus than we'd have liked, but Radio Free Ortona is back with a continuation of our discussion on the utility of the conceptual models of the political spectrum.  Paddy starts off by completely discarding our well thought out and not at all confusing 2 axis nautical model that we gifted the world with in our previous discussion.  Instead we really try, and utterly fail, to get down to brass tacks on this issue.  We hope you enjoy the episode.  

Here's the link to a picture of the bingo card spectrum we stumbled upon in our quest to find visual conceptualizations of what we were talking about.  You can refer to it, when we're talking about it in the episode.

Sorry for the delay between podcasts folks, but podcasting seems to have been preempted by the World Cup, Craft Sales, and the general business of the lead up to Christmas.  We're hoping to get together and record another episode before Christmas, but we can make no guarantees.  In our stead is another of our cynical attempts to feed the algorithm, in the form of an assemblage of our pre and post show conversations.  Sorry for talking with our mouths full.  Our moms taught us better.

Thanks for tuning in to our 10th episode of Radio Free Ortona.  As the title says, this is another glossary episode where we just try to figure out what we mean when we talk about the right or left wings of the political spectrum.  In the process we invent an entirely new and not at all confusing nautical model of the political spectrum, in an attempt to separate the concepts from potentially inflammatory language.  It was a tremendously interesting exercise for us, and we hope it's something that you will find useful as well.

Thanks for tuning in to Episode 9 of Radio Free Ortona.  First off, apologies for the length of time it took to get this episode out.  And apologies for jumping right into it.  Paddy walked into the room and started in on the topic before your intrepid producer had pushed the record button, so it starts mid sentence.

In this episode, we continue our discussion of why capitalism seems to be unpopular with young people these days.  Steve puts on his tin foil hat and goes after central bankers.  We pause to express our mutual admiration of The Clash.  And other digressions.  Hope you enjoy.

In this episode, we talk about the Queen, and what she means to us.  How hard it is going to be to adapt referring to the King, when it's been the Queen for all ours and our parents lives.  After that we move onto a meandering discussion of why kids these days don't like capitalism, despite it being responsible for their standard of living.

Here's a link to Katherine Mangu-Ward's TedTalk that we refer to in the episode.  She explains in 11 minutes what we couldn't in over 2 hours.
