    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 4043: The Money vs The Many
    2026/07/22

    Stephen Carter and Shannon Phillips break down the emerging fight between moneyed interests and economic populists in the Democratic Party, and ask whether progressive candidates need broader coalitions, better slogans or simply better abs. Then they turn to Donald Trump’s latest tariff threats, Mark Carney’s restrained response and the premiers volunteering to play attack dog. Can economic populism work in Canada? Should Carney start treating Trump like the political villain Canadians already believe he is? And is Carter now pro-slogan, or just anti-admitting he was wrong?

    Episode 4042: How Not to Be Seen
    2026/07/16

    Stephen Carter and Zain Velji break down the politics of being seen, from Naheed Nenshi’s controversial Stampede photo with the Israeli ambassador to the staffers whose job is to keep politicians out of pictures they will later regret. Can a good body person save a leader from a bad photo op? Is Mark Carney’s new PMO structure a real change or just corporate jargon? And how much of an episode can be turned into an RBC Wealth Management ad before the sponsor asks for its money back?
