    UNLOCKED BONUS: Canuxploitation

    Like many podcasts, we decided to give the public a free bonus episode for the holidays—and there's no holiday more important in the annals of Canuck is a Slur than Orthodox Christmas! Or, more accurately, Christmas according to the Julian calendar. By popular vote in the Discord server, the clear winner was Bonus #6, "Canuxploitation." Here is the original description: Bryan and Dave from Bring Me The Axe are here to school Kelly on the "tax shelter era" that led to a glut of low-budget cinema that would be come to be referred to as "Canuxploitation," as well as the knock-on effects that helped build the modern Canadian film industry.

    CIAS #19.9: The Horse With No Name

    Please note that there is a version of this episode with slides, if you prefer. You can watch the video on YouTube here. Fresh off of learning about the unmitigated clownshow that was the Las Vegas Posse, we ask the question: "Okay but what if you made it really humid, too? What if you added circus animals?? What if the field tried to kill you???" We also ask the question: "How many CFL franchises do you get a crack at running into the ground with your small adult failson?" And additionally: "What do you do with your jingle after the NFL sues you to make you stop using your team name?" Not to mention: "What is the most appropriate way to write about a public figure dying in a nursing home?" We don't get a lot of good answers, but there are definitely a ton of questions. This brings us to what Francis Fukuyama was talking about when he said "the end of football history": the 1994 Grey Cup. That's it! There's simply no more football to discuss after that. All that's left is to hammer out George Stroumboulopoulos' role in the past nine episodes. Oh, and "Danton Barto" is in there.

    CIAS #19.8: Hot & Dry Posse

    Please note that there is a version of this episode with slides, if you prefer. You can watch the video on YouTube here. Eight episodes in, we finally directly address the question of "how did Canadian football come to be different from American football?" before skipping straight to the early 1990s to get to the good part! Namely, the time the CFL—on the brink of financial ruin—threw a Hail Mary by trying to expand into a market that was surely ripe to accept Canadian football: the United States of America. In this one: you'll learn how close we got to getting any more Rough( )riders, the CFL learns the hard way why Americans don't play football in late June, and one obscure anthem singer learns how butchering "O Canada" can make you the most recognizable Yank in Shanghai.
