    In this weeks episode, we kick off with a little story time that literally had Rose out for nearly 3 days. After a casual Friday dinner with Daniel, Rose unfortunately caught food poisoning and was deathly ill the entire weekend. Luckily she recovered in time to record this weeks episode. Our first story is about Amazon India, who is in trouble for copying other brands and then rigging the amazon site so that their products showed up first in the search feature. What are your thoughts, was this fair or just capitalism? Update on Gabby Petito, which was not such a surprise but more confirmation, it was confirmed by the coroner that it was indeed a homicide. Our thoughts go out to her family at this time. We also chat about Demi Lovato and her announcement that the word Alien is offensive to Aliens; and end the episode discussing a topic we clearly know nothing about- Internet NTFs and how Tiktok is launching some NFT products. Enjoy the episode!

    In this weeks episode we dive right in talking about the backlash some influencers, like Emma Chamberlain, got for attending the Met Gala. It sparked a lot of people jumping onto twitter commenting that social media influencers aren't celebrities and should not have been in attendance. What are your thoughts- are social media influencers celebrities too? We also talk about a Tik Tok star that faced backlash for selling her baby photos online- Zoe Laverne. The star later apologized, but it begs to question- is it ok to sell pictures of your kids for profits? Another huge story this past week was around Frances Haugen, who is the latest Facebook whistle blower. Haugen makes some bold claims, but has a lot of evidence to back it up- it will be interesting to see where this story goes. Lastly, influencer Bretman Rock landed the cover of playboy- which of course sparked backlash. Let us know what you think of the episode!!!

    In this weeks episode we kick off starting with the show currently on everyone's mind- Squid Game. Don't worry there aren't any spoilers- but if you haven't seen this show yet we highly recommend. We are thinking October's exclusive will be dedicated to this masterpiece! Stories this week focus on the topic of capitalism in some way shape or form. We start chatting about the recent Pandora Papers leak, similar to Panama papers several years ago, the leak reinforces what we already know- that the mega rich are able to move and hid their money in offshore accounts, if they are so inclined. But who is at blame here? The rich for taking advantage, or the system that is still allowing these loopholes to exist? We also talk about Robinhood trading app who is once again in the news for the scandal that took place earlier this year were the app restricted users from trading certain stocks therefore driving the price of certain stocks down. They are being accused of market manipulation and inside trading. Our final story to leave you with is more on Britney Spears' conservatorship. Fingers crossed this year marks Britney's final year in this horrible arrangement- #freebritney

    First of all let us be the first to apologize for talking once again about vaccines and covid- the situation is just getting so frustrating and we needed to rant! We are going to try to avoid covid and vaccine discussions for the next few episodes. Our first story, is about a man in Alabama who ended up dead after being unable to receive hospital care for his heart condition due to the hospitals being full with covid patients. Apparently, nurses tried to contact 43 different hospitals and none in the area were able to assist. Unfortunately, this is an ongoing trend in many areas as hospitals are filling up with covid patients (most of which are unvaccinated). Nicki Minaj is still in the headlines for the uproar that her comment made, about a friend of a friend who allegedly got the covid vaccine and had his balls swell and became impotent. There was no substantial evidence to support her claim, and in addition no other known cases of this happening with people who were vaccinated. The tragic story of Gabby Petito swept the nation, but the sheer media frenzy this case caused forced many to question why this story and not thousands of others hit the nation. One news reporter quoted that is was a perfect example of "missing white woman syndrome". And despite the story being tragic, it does highlight an issue with what stories tend to gather media storms. Lastly, we leave you with a little story about Nikita Dragun, who was under fire for "outting" several people in her music video, showing alleged DMs. As always we hope you enjoyed the episode.

    We start this episode discussing how we both re-fell in love with Montreal and our little food tour there! The first story we discuss is around Jordan Cheyenne, who forgot to edit out the end of her vlog where she is forcing her crying emotional son to pose for a thumbnail for the video. We discuss more on our thoughts on family style vlogs, but interested to know your thoughts? Do you think Jordan was in the wrong? What about family vlogs, do you think they present a moral issue? Pink also claps back about how young influencers are controlled by their parents, she used 14 year old Piper Rockelle as an example. Piper later came out to say- everything she does is on her own accord and her parents do not impact her decisions. Lastly, we talk about Facebook who is apparently taking steps to suppress some political content in attempts to make the platform less toxic and polarized. But is this move a little too late?

  • Candace Owens a Hypocrite, Record Flooding Hits NYC & More (Ep 93)
    We kick off the episode with Rose's rant on Alberta, the provinces response to our rising case numbers and how to encourage more individual's to get vaccinated by offering them money. Also in the news these days is our favourite conservative from the US, Candace Owen's who was outraged at a private facility refusing to provide her a covid test (instead they suggested she goes to a public facility for the test). What are your thoughts on this, do you think that Candace was being hypocritical in her claims? Texas is in the news again, this time for passing legislation that restricts abortion to illegal after 6 weeks. This has cased massive backlash with many calling Texas out for standing by this. Another topic we discussed this week is the extreme weather slamming the US and more specifically New York, with record breaking rain happening twice in less than two weeks! Not sure about everyone else but these weather patterns are really concerning.

    In this weeks episode we kick off with Daniel having a little rant about people referring to their friends as their token "gay friend". What are your thoughts on this? We also speak about the quick back step taken by OnlyFans, who are now retracting their statement that they would no longer have explicit content on their site! In other news, three very conservative anti-vaccine radio host all caught covid and died. A really sad story, but we are hoping it wakes some people up into taking this virus more seriously. We also talk about China taking extreme measures to restrict the time children are spending on video games.

From the sounds of it he will be replaced by someone else so she is ultimately still on a conservatorship, which is crazy! We also discuss twitch banning gambling links finally and the obsession with “hot criminals”. Hope you all enjoy!
