FU_Politics

Millions of Canadians drive every day. And many meet friendly policemen who give them tickets for alleged driving infractions. Do drivers know their rights?

One of BC's top lawyers, Kyla Lee, specializes in legal issues concerning the rules of the road. And while her expertise is in British Columbia's laws, there are some commonalities in driving laws across the country - and many drivers who get run over by the system. 

In this episode, Kyla and her colleague and fellow lawyer Paul Doroshenko, QC, discuss driving laws, sharing information that may help you!

Grief is one of the most powerful human emotions. And one of the emotions we know how to deal with least.

Many cultures have specific rituals for dealing with the grief of death, but there are many different kinds of grief and many different kinds of "death" that we each experience in our own way, with no rituals to guide us through it.

In this first episode in a series of exploring the hard conversation of grief, Michelle Budiwski shares her own experiences of grieving loss - through death, divorce and the discovery that sometimes grief is the loss of hope.

Join her as she explores this difficult emotion. Want to be a guest on the show? Email keepingitreal@michellebudiwski.ca with your story!

Erin O'Toole, MP, a candidate for leadership of the Conservative Party of Canada (again) has resorted to that old Tory trick of beating the CBC like a pinata to stoke the passions of the conservative base. Why do Conservative parties hate the CBC so much? As Stephen Lautens (@stephenlautens) and Steven Kerzner (@stevenjkerzner) discuss, the Tories' instinctive hatred of the CBC may very well be reflective of the very reasons Canada needs the CBC!  Listen and decide for yourself!

Andrew Scheer telling Indigenous protesters to "check their privilege" is patently absurd, but it's a predictable offshoot of the bizarre contradictions in Critical Race Theory, an anti-racism analysis popular among some race theorists.

In a nutshell, Critical Race Theory is an academic belief that because White people hold societal power, only White people can be racist.

Any thinking person knows racism is terrible - and illogical - which is why it's important to combat it effectively! And that means through advocacy and action founded in critical thinking, not academic nonsense.

Liana Kerzner (@redlianak) & Maus Merryjest's (@bywordofmaus) examine & deconstruct the theory that "prejudice plus power equals racism" (also known as the Bidol equation) showing how basic Critical Thinking exposes the illogical basis of Critical Race Theory by following it through to its ridiculous conclusions.

 If you want some additional reading, check out Maus' blog post on the subject as well! https://philoscribbles.tumblr.com/post/171907276826/bidols-equation-doesnt-add-up

We know this episode is going to trigger some peoples' outrage - but that's exactly why we need to talk about it.

As evidence recently shown in the Amber Heard - Johnny Depp divorce, sometimes charges of physical or sexual abuse are provably false, but it will still leave the life & psyche of the person falsely accused in ruins - while the false accuser pays no legal price for taking a wrecking ball to someone's life.

False accusations also make it harder for those who've truly been victims of abuse to be taken seriously, and the fear by men of being falsely accused has reduced workplace opportunities for women. It's a serious issue, and we treat it as such. 

Probably the most emotional episode of Mensplaining that we've done. Listen before you judge. And then think.

Host: @stevenjkerzner

Panel: Hafeez Noorani (@FeezyDoesIt), Paul Doroshenko, Q.C. (@PaulDoroshenko), Andrew Willis (@AndylandRadio), Ryan Ballantine (@BBCRyan),

There was a time when newsmedia was considered a public service. Not a clickbaiting cudgel.

@IshatReza and Prof S (@RCI_101) take a look at "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" sides of Canadian News Media. What do we expect from our news sources? Are we receiving fair and balanced news reporting? What are some of the key challenges Canadian news media face? 

Steven Kerzner (@stevenjkerzner) and Stephen Lautens (@stephenlautens) discuss the chicken-or-egg question: did all these idiotic people doing idiotic things for social media 'fame' always exist, or has the lure of social media status pushed them toward greater & more dangerous (and stupid) acts they wouldn't do if their narcissism wasn't rewarded? Plus, the erasure of the line between 'famous & 'infamous' - how long ago did that start decaying to the point that a uniquely American mindset now infects Canadians?
