This Week In Outrage

On this week’s Episode Nick and Cal discuss the proposed “vax tax” in Quebec.  This can’t be something can actually be enforced, is it?  Has Quebec lost it’s mind? We also talk about the 270 doctors who think Spotify should start censoring misinformation, citing Joe Rogan’s latest string of anti vax sentiment.  And fuck it.  We talk about Prince Andrew.  All of that and more.  Plus the "Ground News Blindspot of the Week" segment.

On this week’s Episode Nick and Cal discuss Tara Henley’s exit from CBC and her Substack article that is getting a predictable response from the “nothing to see here” folks on the left, including a bad faith response for *gasp Gawker in an article written by Sarah Hagi.  We also talk about the Sunwing flight of despair, and Trudeau trying to pass the buck to the unvaccinated.   Also is diet culture not just toxic, but immoral?  A recent New York Times article makes just that claim.  

All of that and more plus the  "Ground News Blindspot of the Week" segment.

New Format!  Starting this week, I will be having Cal Post on to talk with about the various stories I want to cover.  Time to escape the empty void I yell into and get some real discussion and push back on my ideas!  This week we talk about Waukesha, Kyle Rittenhouse, Tucker Carlson, and Cal tries to guess which headlines are from the left, and which ones are from the right, using the Ground News App.

On this week’s episode I talk about I talk about the Kyle Rittenhouse trial.  The media is really skewing this whole thing in one direction, the problem is, the trial isn’t going well for the prosecution.  I also talk about a woman gets justifiably fired for political beliefs, and an example of right wing cancel culture.

My guest this week is Nathan MacIntosh.  We talk about a variety of topics.

On this week’s episode I talk about Dems getting their asses handed to them in the off-year elections.  They clearly do not have their finger on the pulse of what is happening, but that’s okay, because everybody else is wrong and their racist.  I also talk about Chris Pratt getting slammed for an innocuous phrase.

My guest this week is Rob Bebenek.  We talk about Aaron Rogers, vaccines in sports, and Colin Kaepernick’s odd comparison of the NFL draft to modern day slavery.

On this week’s episode I talk about an op-ed in the Washington Post about how both political sides have their ideology, but that only one is dangerous.  It’s the Washington Post so I’ll let you guess which side they decided was dangerous.  Also, the shit storm that is the Loudoun County story continues on.  The daily wire originally reported it, and because of that they controlled the narrative, now the left-wing media is scrambling to change it.

On this week’s episode I talk the media’s obsession with issues that most people don’t care about, specifically the ludicrous amount of coverage for Dave Chappelle’s special V.S very import world events that are missing from some major media institutions.  I also talk about Alec Baldwin.  This is a great example of people being human beings.  People are calling for an investigation into the incident but showing sympathy for Alec Baldwin.  That’s accountability culture.

My guest this week is Chris Robinson.  We discuss if it’s possible for comedy to go to far.  Do we have our own limits?  Does too soon really matter?  And, navigating safe space rooms, and racial issues as comedians.
