This episode starts off with some talk about last night's marathon World Series game between the Dodgers and the Blue Jays. Hear from Manager John Schneider about keeping the loss in perspective and on intentionally walking Shohei Ohtani.

The main focus of this episode is the conflicting stories we are being told by Ontario Premier Doug Ford regarding the Ronald Reagan / Anti-Tariff ads. Today Ford claims he wasn't picking a fight; he was starting a conversation. That story doesn't add up and you will hear why in this episode.

This episode is almost entirely about America suspending trade talks with Canada, over Ontario Premier Doug Ford's commercial featuring Ronald Reagan. Premier Ford seems to be trolling President Trump. Between airing the ad this weekend during the World Series to appearing in a video with California Governor Gavin Newson ... Doug Ford and Prime Minister Carney seem to be enjoying this latest controversy.
