Meanwhile, Candace Owens finds herself in a heated debate on feminism, pitting the "trad wife" lifestyle against the modern career woman. We also break down the renewed public interest and controversy surrounding the Epstein files—raising more questions than answers. Plus, there's a new trend on the rise: micro-retirement—what is it and why are more people considering it?

On the sports side, Kevin Durant stirs debate by downplaying Michael Jordan’s influence on the game, just as Jordan’s mansion hits Airbnb. The OKC Thunder secure their future by locking up their big three on max contracts, while Drake makes headlines by replacing his LeBron James tattoo with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s jersey number—what does it all mean?

In this episode, we dive into the ongoing and uncertain state of trade negotiations between Canada and the United States. With Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and former U.S. President Donald Trump weighing in, tensions are high and visions are clashing. Trump's newly passed "Big Beautiful Bill" has cleared the Senate and could reshape cross-border relations in major ways for both nations. Meanwhile, Drake made waves in Toronto, literally, by rolling through the city in a massive truck to promote his new single and upcoming album Iceman. On the legal front, Diddy's controversial trial verdict has people talking—and we break down what it means. Plus, we ask the age-old question: are summer vacations even necessary anymore?

In sports, we look at Trump’s jaw-dropping announcement that the UFC could hold a fight at the White House in 2026. Joey Chestnut has reclaimed his "Glizzy King" crown and the prestigious Mustard Belt, once again dominating the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest. College sports made history as OT Felix Ojo inked a record-breaking $5.1 million deal with Texas Tech. We explore what this means for the future of NCAA athletes. Over in the NBA, the Lakers’ signing of Deandre Ayton has fans confused. It is officially the end of Toronto’s Core Four era, with Mitch Marner being traded to the Vegas Golden Knights.

In our off-topic segment, we cover the unbelievable story of a father who leapt off a Disney Cruise to save his daughter from drowning—and survived. Plus, a Doordash delivery went hilariously (and dangerously) wrong when a driver ended up on the tarmac at O’Hare Airport. Finally, stick around for our interactive questions segment at the end.

In this episode, we break down President Donald Trump’s latest move to end trade negotiations with Canada over their soon-to-be-implemented Digital Services Tax. The tension comes as Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney commits 5% of the country’s GDP to defense spending — a bold NATO-wide push aimed at securing Trump’s support for Article 5. Meanwhile, the U.S. Supreme Court sparks fresh controversy by ruling that parents can opt their children out of school programs featuring LGBT storybooks, raising questions about education, rights, and representation. We also explore the key differences between stress and anxiety, offering practical coping mechanisms to help navigate today’s mental health challenges.

In sports, the NBA offseason has exploded with massive trades — Kevin Durant is now a Houston Rocket, Lonzo Ball lands in Cleveland, and the Toronto Raptors have shockingly parted ways with Masai Ujiri. Their newest draft pick is already stirring headlines with his less-than-enthusiastic reaction to being selected. On a more positive note, Canadian athletes are dominating the sports world — with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander joining a growing list of Finals MVPs across the NBA, NHL, and MLB. Plus, John Tavares takes a major hometown discount to help the Leafs chase the Stanley Cup.

Off-topic, we dive into the growing controversy around Diljit Dosanjh’s latest film, which is being blocked from screening in India.

In this episode, we break down the shocking missile strikes launched by Donald Trump's administration on Iran detailing why they happened, what the timing means, and the global fallout that could follow.

In this packed episode, we dive into Kendrick Lamar’s explosive sold-out concert in Toronto where he finally performed the track fans had been speculating about—and yes, the Drake beef is front and center.

Elon Musk Vs. Donald Trump | Shaq Doesn’t Cry | Canada’s G7 Controversy | Ep. 30

In this packed episode, we dive into the escalating feud between Elon Musk and Donald Trump—two of the most powerful and controversial figures in the world. What started as subtle jabs has exploded into a full-blown Twitter war. We trace the origins of the conflict, dissect their most viral exchanges, and ask: what's really driving the tension between them? Meanwhile, Shaquille O’Neal is going viral for his bold statements on masculinity. Across multiple podcasts, Shaq claims he doesn’t cry or show emotions, crediting his military-style upbringing. Is this a relic of old-school toughness, or a deeper issue worth unpacking?

On the global stage, controversy is brewing as Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney invites Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the G7 Summit. With tensions between the two countries at an all-time high, Carney is facing backlash from both Conservatives and Liberals. At the same time, Canada’s trade deficit has hit a historic low, largely due to a strained relationship with the United States. The Liberal Party has also tabled two new security bills that critics say may open the door to government overreach—are Canadians trading liberty for the illusion of safety? In a wild political twist, sports personality Stephen A. Smith might be eyeing a run for President in 2028. Is he serious, or is it all just smoke? We also dig into the tipping culture that seems to have spiralled out of control. In today’s economic climate, why are we tipping for everything—and is there a way back?

In Sports Talk, we break down the thrilling start to the NBA and NHL Finals, with multiple overtime games and buzzer-beaters already making headlines. We compare OKC's new superstar trio with the legendary Durant-Harden-Westbrook lineup and ask the big question: is Shai Gilgeous-Alexander already the greatest player in franchise history? Plus, Commissioner Adam Silver is proposing changes to the NBA All-Star Weekend—will it save the declining event?

In our Off Topic segment, we explore the mysterious world of the Enhanced Games, Timbaland’s latest music signing (a virtual artist that’s not even real), and Ed Sheeran’s new track “Sapphire,” which is making waves in India. Eminem is suing META for allegedly using his music without permission, and 50 Cent finds himself in a public feud with his own son—are we watching family drama or just another celebrity meltdown?
