Ed the Sock (and Friends)

Stephen Lautens and Steven Kerzner discuss the skewed debate about the murder of US right-wing agitator Charlie Kirk, why America is losing to China and also the real reason there is no end to the war in Gaza.

Stephen Lautens and Steven Kerzner tackle news , politics and current events from a Centrist viewpoint.

Ed the Sock and Liana Kerzner cover the politically-sensitive renaming of Toronto's Dundas Square, how The Loud Left killed DEI, people who boycott thinking, why everything is so g*damn expensive and the octogenarian VTR repairman who broke Ed's perfectly fine machines - thus imperiling the digitization of hours and hours of Ed's Muchmusic content! 

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! 

 

Don't forget to check out Liana's excellent podcast It's Not Therapy at nottherapyshow.com or wherever you get your podcasts.

 

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).
