    Episode 69: Do NOT Click on #32 (feat. @drewfoundland)

    We celebrate a VERY nice episode with the return of Drew, who announces some VERY special news (the release of the ep is a tiny bit delayed because the announcement got pushed back, sorry!) We also talk about that terrifying, nauseating Buzzfeed list, the Muskrat Falls inquiry, Alberta's "oil" "crisis," the CUPW strike, high heels at work and the death of George Homework Bush.

    Many thanks as always to Andre Goulet for producing our show (check out his show, Unpacking the News) and Jason Vezina for making our hip, cool theme song (check out his work at @jvezina). And thanks to Ricochet for hosting our pod!

    Episode 68: B.C.: Electoral Reform or Revolution? (feat. @vyassaran)

    Tannara and James chat about Ontario's rent control situation and activism updates from Winnipeg and Toronto before interviewing with friend & comrade Vyas Saran (@vyassaran on Twitter) about the B.C. electoral reform referendum and the Vancouver City Council election. The interview starts at the 29 minute mark if you want to skip ahead to that.

    Here are some links to Vyas' writings on the subject: https://www.policynote.ca/author/vyas-saran/

emma+ariel ,

Audio's not great, but the conversation definitely is

I've been dying for a podcast on Canadian news with better analysis than the bland "what's the political effect of this" that permeates the CBC. So happy to hear conversation from group of thoughtful folks on the left. Informal, but informative.
