As we welcome in the New Year and a new podcast season, we discuss various news stories and opinion pieces that piled up over the holidays, including the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Soviet Union.  We challenge Financial Post columnist Diane Francis on her view that the unvaccinated (but not smokers, alcoholics or obese people) should pay for their own healthcare. Lastly, John gives his prediction for 2022: the undermining of our rights and freedoms will get worse in the coming twelve months before it gets better.
