Episode 8: The Political Sphere, Religious Holidays, and Literally Everything Else

Episode 8: The Political Sphere, Religious Holidays, and Literally Everything Else

This week Cole and Max talk about at least 6 topics so please bear with us. From Canadian Political Drama, to the danger of zoom meetings, to environmentalism, to religious holidays, to examining our own biases, Max and Cole discuss as much as we can in one episode. We try out a new microphone so let us know what you think! We hold a lot of bias in this episode and for that, we both apologize. That being said, hope everyone is doing okay during this third wave across Canada. Stay safe celebrating holidays, whether it be Easter, Vaisakhi, or Ramadan. Stay safe everyone and make sure to wear a mask, get your vaccine when you can, listen to your health officers, order takeout, and treat people with kindness. Cheers!

Episode 7: Trans Youth, Parliaments, and Presidents

Episode 7: Trans Youth, Parliaments, and Presidents

This week Max and Cole tackle a variety of topics ranging from the anti-trans rally in Vancouver this weekend, to Prince Phillip, to Parliamentary systems. It is important to remember that trans men are men, trans women are women, and if you do not believe that, get with the times. Max and Cole media does not condone any hate. Listen to trans voices and if you can, donate to a charity listed below. Aside from that, protect trans kids, wear a mask, get your vaccine, spread love not hate, and order takeout (if you have the financial means). F*ck Derek Sloane. Have a good week,. Cheers!
