Shenanigans with Rick Welbanks episodes

  • SRS#24 - A real history lesson for Hipsters
    History enthusiast Steve Cox comes on the show to talk to Rick about (surprise!) history - mainly World War 1 and 2. We talk about why Hitler was the world's first hipster, why you don't mess with Russia, how Switzerland takes "neutrality" to a whole other level, religious wars, and more.
    1 hr 23 min
  • SRS#23 - Personal Responsibility
    Our guest bailed last minute so Rick and Adam decided to talk about personal responsibility, why it's bad to bubble wrap everything and coddle people, rules and laws (whether you agree with them and why), Toronto's crack smoking (#inadrunkenstupor) Mayor Rob Ford, discussing beliefs and politics, critical thinking (not letting emotion solely dictate your actions and decisions) and Adam realizes he is slowly becoming more libertarian, apparently.
    1 hr 2 min
  • SRS#22 with Tattoo Artist Steve Plum
    Adam's friend Tim comes on the show to talk about how he ended up with custody of his children, what he learned about family law that you should know, and we talk about how to empower your kid to learn on their own and deal with bullying.
    1 hr 21 min
  • SRS#18 - Israel Skype-in, Squirrels, Close Calls, Context and Sexism!

    This one is a real barn burner! We skype in a listener/fan from Israel (who is quite witty and well spoken) to talk about his country and the Middle East from a local perspective. Then Rick's girlfriend Meka joins the conversation and we talk about Rick's apartment being overrun by Squirrels, Adam's near death experience, and then a good long chat about proper word use (ie with "rape"), and the perils of sexism to both sides of the gender gap.

    1 hr 15 min
  • SRS#17 - "Rock Scars" with Chad Valyear

    Chad Valyear (singer from the old band The Undergods) is on the show for a slightly more random episode. We talk about being Rock Scars (after a freudian slip by Adam), naming bands, being couthless, destroying bridges and Adam takes his leash powers too far for Rick.
