  • Episode 4062: Pulling an Eby
    2026/10/26

    Stephen Carter and Shannon Phillips unpack David Eby calling an early election, and how he may have permanently added his name to the Canadian political dictionary. Can the BC NDP rebuild, or has the political landscape fundamentally changed? With Donald Trump and Mark Carney still circling a trade deal, is Canada better off making a deal now or waiting for the Americans to blink? And is Stephen Carter once again prepared to be held accountable for his actions in front of a live audience?


    Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.

  • Episode 4061: Original Sin
    2026/10/23

    Stephen Carter and Shannon Phillips dissect David Eby’s snap election gamble in British Columbia and Danielle Smith’s search for new enemies after Alberta’s referendum. Was calling the election Eby’s original sin? Why have some political parties become so obsessed with costed platforms and looking serious that they've forgotten how to actually win elections? And will Stephen survive being held accountable for his own political sins at The Strategists Live in Calgary?

  • Episode 972: Kenney Island
    2022/03/07
    Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter talk Jason Kenney's upcoming leadership review. Has a balanced budget and high price of oil helped Kenney? Is 2900 registrants (and counting) for the vote a worrying sign? And has there ever been a segment more likely to get Stephen Carter cancelled than "Sweet Nothings"?

  • Episode 4059: Six Days, Ten Questions, No Good Answers (Live)
    2026/10/18

    Live from Edmonton, six days before Alberta’s referendum, Stephen Carter and Shannon Phillips game out the final stretch of the campaign. With ten questions on the ballot and campaigns scrambling for every last vote, they break down what the final days could mean for Danielle Smith and Alberta’s future. Can Mark Carney tip the scales for No to the Nine? Will voters actually read the questions, or just vote no to the whole thing? And with six days left to save the country, is it too late to put Stephen Carter in charge of something less consequential?

  • Episode 4060: Did Carney Just Change Everything?
    2026/10/15

    Stephen Carter and Shannon Phillips dive into an emergency episode after Prime Minister Mark Carney explicitly endorses “No to the Nine,” just days before Alberta's referendum. Will Carney's endorsement give the No to the Nine movement a final boost? With more than a million ballots already cast, has he arrived too late to make a difference? And has Mark Carney just made Stephen Carter the most insufferable man in Canadian politics?
