COVID-19 is of course a very important topic of discussion on many different levels. And our podcasts have been doing that, in ways the regular media hasn't. But no matter where you turn, the talk is about COVID-19. WE NEED A BREAK!
This week on Mensplaining host Ed the Sock (@edthesock) and Hafez Noorani (@FeezyDoesIt) Aron Seal (@aronseal) and the fabulous Andrew Willis (@andylandradio) share modern annoyances, from idiotic managers to hot-air hand dryer and other faux environmental actions the 'single-use' plastic bag, online help videos that don't help at all, websites that won't let you see if you typed your own password correctly and more. All in the name of fun, though good, insightful points happen along the way despite our best efforts.
Hafeez Noorani is a digital marketing analyst & consultant and producer of Mensplaining
Aron Seal is a 'small c' conservative political commentator & activist & founder of cannabis company C-Fusion
Andrew Willis is the force of nature who hosts Andyland Radio on CIVR radio Wednesday nights (PDT) and can be found at andylandradio.com

If you have kids, it's part of the new reality - schooling them at home. Sure, there are online helps, but now the pressure's on to be both parent & teacher. You have experience with one, not the other. The kids want to play video games or hang with their friends online. How do you become an at-home parnt-teacher without losing your temper or your mind?
Host Michelle Budiwski found the idea of schooling her kindergarten age and grade 3 and grade 9 kids at home indefinitely terrifying and overwhelming. But she and her husband have found a strategy that not only works for them but the kids are thriving with (at least for now - fingers crossed)!
In this episode Michelle shares what they are doing to maintain structure, education, accountability and behavior at home during these uncertain times. Lots of tips that could work for you too. Listen, maybe learn & enjoy!

"I think, therefore I am" is central to philosophy, but for many people it's followed by the question "Who am I?"
How does identity fit into critical thinking, and how do identity fallacies work?
Liana Kerzner (@redlianak) and Maus Merryjest (@wordofmaus) look at when identity is relevant, when it's not, and how to tell the difference.

It's no secret that Canada's facing a two-headed threat: to the health of our person and the health of the economy. Many are suffering economically as well as medically. The federal government has stepped up with a big relief package for businesses and individuals. But how do you access it?
In this week's MATTER OF FACT Ishat Reza (@IshatReza) and Professor S (@RCI_101) we talk about layoffs and what some options are if you find yourself in this situation. Also we look at the governments response to the Covid crisis, including what relief is there for those who are facing layoffs. Instead of fails of the week, we’ve decided to do political and media wins of the week. Plus we end on a personal note of hope in this time of crisis.

Men & cooking - a love/hate relationship for some; for some pure love; for some pure hate; for many others - microwave!
Guest host Ed the Sock (@edthesock) and a diverse panel who have very different relationships with food and food preparation. Comfort foods, how to make 'em, attitudes toward food, the tie between men, masculinity and cooking (that doesn't involve a barbecue)!
If you're weary of all the discouraging COVID-19 discussions - this podcast is an antidote. Fun & funny. And practical in places too.

As if things weren't bad enough, the voluntary lockdown of partners & families in one home, with very little opportunity for stress relief, has resulted in an increase in cases of domestic abuse.
What can you do when you're not supposed to leave the house but you're being abused? Are shelters safe when we're not supposed to gather? What online or phone services are available? What can the police & authorities do to help?
Millions of funding have been released to prepare for a secondary scourge of abuse of loved ones, partners, children, elders, or even housemates while everyone is staying home to stop the spread. But much of the public messaging has gaps for people who are trying to stay home when home isn't safe. Rose Jardine and Michelle Budiwski (@butterflymbca) join host Liana Kerzner (@redlianak) to provide info on useful resources, survival strategies, and real talk for women and everyone else!

Doug Ford's Ontario government has been at turns ham-handed, greedy, heartless, foolish, irresponsible, wasteful & mean. And all of those policies remain in place.
But it seems the Coronavirus has changed the Premier's sense of responsibility. He actually seems like...a leader? Working closely (minimum 2 metres maintained) with the federal Liberal government to actively contain the pandemic. Was he visited by the ghosts of COVID Past, Present & Future? All that matters is - can he keep it going before his biggest obstacle gets in his way - him.
Plus, how "How are you" has gone from an empty greeting to one that actually means something!

Why do men avoid seeing doctors, sometimes until it's too late to fix a treatable illness? Is there some threat to our masculinity in admitting we're not physically invulnerable? Do we think we're letting down those that depend on us to be invulnerable? Or are we just idiots?
And why are men disproportionately represented in the crowd that rejects the reality of COVID-19 and refuses to take common sense precautions?
Host: Steven Kerzner (@stevenjkerzner)
Panel:
Hafeez Noorani (@FeezyDoesIt) producer of Mensplaining and acclaimed digital marketing analyst.
Paul Doroshenko, Q.C. (@pauldoroshenko) is one of Canada's top criminal law lawyers based in BC at Acumen Law.
Andrew Willis (@andylandradio) is a radio host, music lover, and man with no filter - and we love him for it.
Aron Seal (@aronseal) is a conservative political activist, commentator and entrepreneur in the Cannabis industry.

BROKEN CLOCK - A PODCAST ABOUT CRITICAL THINKING
One good thing may come out of the COVID-19 pandemic - our ability to recognize the difference between what we need and what we want. Stores are closed, we can only buy necessities - leaving us to question how much we really 'need' the things we habitually buy? What is a 'need' and what is something we just 'want'?
With extreme American right-wing windbags like Glenn Beck insisting that America's economy is more important than public health, Maus Merryjest (@wordofmaus) and Liana Kerzner (@redlianak) take a look at needs, what's wrong with Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs (that thing we were taught in high school), what people really 'need' and why Glenn Beck is totally wrong.

Ed goes off on the mash-up of misinformation, the purveyors of panic, people's general ignorance of medical triage, how Canada differs from Italy, why global infection/mortality rates are useless to Canadians, and why caring about the economy isn't putting money over people's health, because people need money to maintain their health! Plus other things sure to rile some people up, calm some people down and make others say "that's exactly what I've been thinking but didn't dare to say out loud!"
