Not everybody nerds out on politics as much as we do. This episode is for those folks (and the nerds like us). We talk "real life" angles on the US presidential election, Jagmeet Singh confronting a heckler, Justin Trudeau's Liberal leadership journey, and the chopping waters around the B.C. election. 

2:30 | Beyond A Ballot hosts Amanda Alvaro and Rachael Segal talk to us hours before launching Season Two of their popular podcast.

38:10 | Johnny Infamous takes us through his skincare routine. This is not a joke. What's your skincare routine? 

48:00 | It's hard to imagine what Fort Saskatchewan Mayor Gail Katchur was thinking, reminiscing (on camera) about drowning and gassing kittens on the farm. The popular mayor has since apologized (obviously). Ryan and Johnny talk it out. 

1:06:00 | G-Money says Jagmeet Singh stole a page from the WWE playbook. RMC has a message for the "American right wing wannabes" in Ottawa. First Class Teacher calls Premier Danielle Smith to the carpet. Jackson's furious about vandalism on September 11 at a firefighter memorial. It's The Flamethrower presented by the DQs of Northwest Edmonton and Sherwood Park!
