Jean Charest - gone. Pierre Poilievre - gone. Rona Ambrose - gone. All serious candidates for the leadership of the Conservative Party of Canada; some announced their leadership bid only to withdraw shortly thereafter, or declined to run. Who's been pulling the strings behind the scenes to make these once very-committed candidates to drop out?
Meanwhile former PM Stephen Harper resigns from the board of the Conservative Fund, rumoured to be inspired by his desire to block Charest. But was that the reason? Is Harper the one still controlling the CPC and if so, did he get other serious candidates to walk away to clear the decks for Peter MacKay...or did he do it to clear the decks for his own bid to re-take the leadership?!
Steven Kerzner (@stevenjkerzner) and Stephen Lautens (@stephenlautens) discuss these tantalizing speculations - and if there's a well-known, well-liked non-political person in the wings planning to do what Bloomberg & Steyer did to the US Democratic race?

You've heard the saying - "The only difference between men and boys is the size of their toys." (Why is it always about size?)
In this less serious, more fun episode, our Mensplaining panelists talk about their favourite boyhood toys and how those toys reflected who they were, how they were taught about 'manliness' and what kids gained by playing with real, plastic toys, in person with friends or alone with their own imaginations, and the importance of it all.

As she continues her deep-dive into bullying in the electronic age, Michelle Budiwski shares her own insight as both a victim of bullying and as a teenage bully herself. Because before we can effectively combat cyber-bullying we have to be brutally honest and face the uncomfortable truths of why bullies bully, where they learn to bully and how they choose their victims.
_____

The schoolyard bully is a trope - someone many of us had to face down or left us face-down. But then we could go home and be safe. That was before the internet. Now, no place is safe, for kids or adults. The internet has made it possible for bullies to harass, threaten, extort and humiliate people 24/7.
Social media especially thrives on adults bullying adults, adults bullying kids, kids bullying kids and hate oozing through society from every electronic orifice. How do we shut these bullies down and how do we teach our children compassion, empathy and respect while they're growing up in an internet fueled age of rage?

CAUTION: DIRTY LAUNDRY AHEAD
Though Ed and the legendary dance diva Monika Deol both worked at Muchmusic at the same time, they only ever once appeared on-air together - and that time was the last time for a reason! Ed talks about what he said that kept him & Monika incommunicado for over 20 years (be warned: it was a different time with different sensibilities).
NOW Ed & Monika,along with Rick "The Temp" Campanelli are working together again on the re-invented re-imagined ELECTRIC CIRCUS EXPERIENCE national tour! And Ed tells you how the new ECX will save the world!!
Hey - help Ed keep gas in the tank, because "Show on the Road" sounds a lot better than "Show sitting on the driveway!" Support FUN - The FU_Network & FU_Politics, restoring the spark of magical honest, authentic, unpredictable, funny & smart that made classic Muchmusic great!

Question Ed gets sick of answering: "Did Bell Media (the company that bought Muchmusic from CHUM TV) kill Muchmusic?" So he gives the answer loud and clear - NO!! There was a reason Ed quit Much before the sale was even contemplated - Much killed itself! Here's some of the how & why!
Plus a little info on the reinvention and revival of Electric Circus with Monika Deol, multi-camera online retro dance party extravaganza!

It's the first month of 2020 and it's already shaping up to be a sequel to the sh*tshow that was 2019.
Iranian General and terrorist plotter assassinated by President Trump, leaving America's democracy in crisis. A Ukrainian airliner full of civilians downed by an Iranian "error" in the fog of war. And an outraged Canadian corporate CEO speaks from the heart.
And we still haven't reached the Democratic primaries - or the US Presidential race.
Put on your seatbelt, it's going to be a bumpy ride.
Hosts:
Stephen Lautens (@stephenlautens)
Steven Kerzner (@stevenjkerzner)

While the rest of the media cries its crocodile tears over the tragedy of lives lost on a Ukrainian airliner, using it as grist for the mill of political reporting of Trump-centric clickbait, this FU_Politics Report focuses on the real victims - the dead, their families and loved ones.
This kind of tragedy has happened before. One of them resulted in even greater loss of Canadian life - the Air India terrorist bombing of 1985, which took off from Montreal and exploded over the Atlantic. There's much to learn from every tragedy. What did we learn from Air India? What mistakes did the government and media make? What did they get right? And how can those lessons be applied to reduce the human cost to the loved ones and friends of those who died on Ukrainian International Airlines Flight 752?
Both our guests have very direct, very different personal connections to the Air India bombing and offer their reflections, experience and advice on a very human level.
Host: Steven Kerzner
Panel:
Taleeb Noormohamed was the director of the Air India review secretariat, responsible for all activities related to the review of the bombing investigation and the final report issued by bob rae, including coordinating with agencies of the Canadian government including the RCMP, CSIS and Transport Canada as well as with foreign government and working with the families of the victims.
Liana Kerzner, co-founder of FU_Network, host of the FU_Politics podcast Hey Ladies, a broadcaster, award-winning TV writer/producer/performer, radio host, popular Youtuber, journalist and public speaker. But for this show, none of that matters. What matters is that Liana, as a girl in 1st grade, lost her friend and classmate to a terrorist air tragedy.
Putting a human spin on the news. FU_Politics Reports.

Neil Waytowich (@WaytowichNeil ) takes a look back on the wild ride that was 2019 with a LOT of guest voices helping to try to make sense of the year the world seemed to spin off its axis!
It's a great way to prepare for 2020. The madness won't be slowing down.
