Ed the Sock (and Friends)

This week, a banned Disney movie, Octopus farms, why we should stop looking for Aliens, why British TV from the 70s - 90s gave Ed nightmares and more!

Ed is LIVE Monday - Friday, midnight - 5am, his All-Night Show on 94.9 The Rock, therock.fm and The Rock app! And yes, you can call him live!

In this week's episode, Ed the Sock and Liana Kerzner talk about people who speak with confidence but are full of sh*t, why Gen X were the last generation to have a real childhood, misleading product names, that new & improved is typically the former not the latter and other subjects they use to swing between topics like Tarzan using vines in the jungle.

Stephen Lautens and Steven Kerzner discuss bike lanes - or Doug Ford's hatred of them; Pierre Poilievre is sinking....will the by-election on August 18 turn his status to 'sunk'?; the reason top legal firms, media corporations and elite universities are bowing to Trump's demands; the Trump takeover of Washington D.C. and what it means for the rest of the US; and more.

The best of the week from the All-Night Show!

This show goes in an unplanned direction as Ed's mention of a somewhat common injury a man may accidentally inflict upon his manhood leads to Sherry, Donna and Triple T adding to the discussion...which was never intended to be a discussion. Also, Chuck in the Truck is back with more tales of 'psychic occurrences' he has experienced recently and yes, he believes it. And Liana Kerzner's Getting Through the Night discussion of 'Persuasion vs Manipulation' turns into a bit of a tug-of-war with Ed!

 

 

 

 

This week Ed the Sock and Liana Kerzner break down the diplomatic masterstroke of PM Carney's statement on recognizing Palestine, bust-up the notion that "Judeo-Christian" is a real thing, talk about Hollywood reboots vs revivals, Superman vs Fantastic Four at the movies and sundry other topics along the way.

As nations, universities, legal firms and more capitulate to Donald Trump's bullying, Canada has been refusing to bend the knee. Will this work out in our favour or not?

"It's like the 80s died this week!"says Liana as she and Ed talk about the passing of Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Hulk Hogan and Ozzy Osbourne before wading into the problem of boys being a-holes, the Hockey Canada verdict and why they both loved the new "Superman" movie (it wasn't just the dog).

From her Wellness Wednesday episode of last week, Liana Kerzner discusses the interplay between people's sense of morality and their pre-release attitudes towards James Gunn's new Superman film (note, this was recorded before Liana saw - and loved -the movie. Twice.)

 

This week Ed the Sock and Liana Kerzner talk about how the new Superman movie is a handy way to identify MAGA morons, how learning from monkeys could bring an end to gun violence (hint: poop) and Killer Whales showing some really shocking new behaviour toward humans!

 

UPDATE: Ed and Liana each saw "Superman" and loved it.

Prime Minister Carney is successfully drawing the support of conservatives away from Poilievre's Conservative Party, but not all Liberals are happy about it. This and more as Stephen Lautens and Steven Kerzner bring their moderate, centrist analyses to Canadian politics.
