Bankas Podcast - CBC Mad from Regina ｜ The Bankas Show

00:00:00.000 welcome to the bank of show everybody we are uh coming to you from regina saskatchewan

00:00:05.300 which is a place that people who live here have convinced themselves is nice which i feel happy

00:00:12.920 for them that they believe that they live in a nice place we are from toronto which uh you know

00:00:19.880 a lot of somebody said to me oh you know i love your comedy but you you guys from toronto you

00:00:24.060 think you're in center of the world don't you and well when you come to places like this

00:00:30.480 you start to think maybe i do live in the center of the world because

00:00:36.220 to me regina is just like how long do you until you get stabbed by a native i don't know what that

00:00:45.320 that's basically the vibe here which isn't great and it's not you know it's that's whatever it is

00:00:51.760 it's culturally appropriate and i i don't want to culturally you know toronto is culturally

00:00:57.000 appropriating places like regina and winnipeg when we have um violent crime because i feel like it was

00:01:05.760 invented here anyway guys uh it's really fun that we're here we had a great shows in saskatoon and

00:01:13.540 regina we talk a bunch about it on the patreon bonus podcast from this week which you guys

00:01:19.480 can check out from six bucks a month you can pay for the whole year at once patreon.com

00:01:25.040 slash ben bankus that's how you support canadian artists because we are not supported by

00:01:30.860 the canadian government we are not part of cbc i'm on twitter uh you should follow me on twitter

00:01:38.460 support me on twitter but uh patreon is where it's at i've been posting a ton of content i told you guys

00:01:43.880 once we were over 100 patrons i'm going to be focusing a ton on patreon so we are focusing a

00:01:49.480 lot on patreon there's longer stand-up clips on there right now bonus podcasts all that stuff so

00:01:54.380 go check that out but anyway today is just absolutely insane because today is the day that

00:01:59.820 well yesterday was actually the day that cbc was labeled government funded government funded media

00:02:08.560 which you know they freaked out over they the freak out that i've seen today over getting labeled

00:02:18.660 government funded media by elon musk and twitter they they claim it's by elon musk like they everybody's

00:02:25.240 acting like elon musk himself did this and i don't know if that's true or if you know twitter's

00:02:32.640 they've just changed the people who run it and they're trying to actually tell people hey this

00:02:39.420 media is funded by the government and we're in a situation right now where the canadian government

00:02:45.920 just pushed legislation through i believe it's completely through or it's maybe still at the

00:02:51.640 senate level tell me in the comments what's actually going on with bill c-11 but essentially bill c-11 is

00:02:57.380 this piece of legislature that states that uh basically anybody with an audience on social media

00:03:06.360 is to be looked at as the same way they would look at the cbc or look at any other media corporation

00:03:15.260 global news and basically the reason that they're saying they're doing this is to uplift canadian

00:03:22.240 artists and uh content creators but of course there's new standards and guidelines that come

00:03:29.420 with this right so basically they want to police you an independent artist or independent journalist

00:03:35.200 or independent content creator podcaster as if you were on tv as if you were have had a tv show on

00:03:43.640 cbc so they want the control that they have over cbc over this content over canadian's content

00:03:54.860 they want that at the same time they're telling you that cbc is independent journalism or independent

00:04:03.780 they they only say independent journalism by the way they never talk about the comedy arm of it

00:04:09.260 yeah which is like almost 100 propaganda if not 90 percent um in terms of just the sketches that

00:04:17.900 they do on this hour's 22 minutes which are almost 100 no they are 100 there's no pro pierre joke

00:04:27.820 there is no i'm gonna put trudeau down on this joke every joke on cbc on their comedy is

00:04:36.800 propaganda guys and it's all funded by the government and all of that cbc comedy gets so

00:04:45.520 much money that you'd be just shocked like somebody was telling me how much money uh this hour's 22

00:04:50.880 minutes gets first of all they fuck over the artists okay so it's not like oh cbc what a cultural

00:04:58.100 you know staple that we need to continue they fuck the artists over more than if those artists were

00:05:03.320 not working for cbc first of all almost they it's a great credit if they want to go to the states

00:05:08.360 and and and things like that that they work for this government run yeah government funded comedy

00:05:14.840 shit especially to go to the states because they want people who are like trained in how to they want

00:05:20.600 that level of woke there which is because they don't have it yet but they want it snl has it snl is

00:05:26.220 basically our their cbc kind of vibe in terms of just being super super liberal but i think snl is

00:05:34.900 way less liberal way less yeah people think snl is propaganda and it is in a lot of ways but it's

00:05:40.120 way less than cbc at least snl is like a private like that's nbc so it's like it is like an executive

00:05:46.000 who's making money going oh maybe this is what's gonna get us more ratings whereas the cbc is like

00:05:51.500 no we don't want to have well they just do it in a different way where they just have i don't know

00:05:55.500 how it works well they used to have lobby groups and shit well they used to have like rex murphy

00:05:59.500 and they used to have like the the other side of the canadian identity on their cbc yeah but i'm

00:06:04.360 saying the nbcs and those big companies like they also are like they're not directly government funded

00:06:09.540 but they're like in like you know what i mean like they have ways that they're being influenced by

00:06:14.900 other actors like soros and shit like that who give money to and fucking what's his name bezos who

00:06:22.760 bought bought what did he buy the new york times i think so washington post i believe

00:06:26.800 one of those washington journal something like that he bought a bunch of shit and then but my point is

00:06:32.480 that real independent journalism isn't coming from somebody who took a journalism course and is working

00:06:40.120 for a either state funded or whatever you want to call it publicly funded so they're public how is

00:06:50.120 then rebel news is publicly funded in my mind that's pub the public is choosing to fund rebel news as

00:06:58.760 anybody you know ezra levant's teeth are publicly funded ezra levant's teeth are publicly funded but

00:07:04.000 as but rebel news is publicly funded because the people who pay for it yeah are just like hey i like

00:07:09.640 this type of news and a lot of them have a lot of money and give a lot of money because they see the ctv

00:07:14.520 as being shit and those people who give a lot of money are also paying exorbitant amounts of tax

00:07:19.520 because if you make a ton of money in this country you're paying a lot of tax even if you're also

00:07:23.480 hiding it and doing businesses and stuff like that you're still paying more tax than a lot of people

00:07:27.860 and so you're paying for cbc and then on top of it you're publicly funding an independent journalist

00:07:33.860 uh journalism like at rebel which i'm not saying rebel isn't propaganda and i'm not saying rebel it

00:07:39.400 doesn't choose what kind of narrative they want to talk about but at the end of the day but they have

00:07:44.020 they're doing that out of necessity because because there is no other side of the story on a on a publicly

00:07:50.540 funded or government funded level so to act like we could just you know uh like the liberals

00:07:57.780 are insane right now the shit that they're saying online is totally terrifying like every single

00:08:04.040 liberal on here is you know it's basically the same story over and over again that you know here i'll

00:08:10.180 just read twitter is rapidly destroying the one thing it used to be good for a public gathering place

00:08:15.020 of journos experts and participants in the news of the day what a circus like these like these are

00:08:21.400 liberals who these are boomers these are gen x people who don't fucking know shit they've been

00:08:27.100 voting liberal their whole lives blindly they don't give a shit about what's happening to their kids

00:08:32.500 what's happening to their grandkids all they care about is that they're right and they're brainwashed

00:08:37.620 and that's like when you live in a fucking place that brainwashes you 24 7 you start to not even know

00:08:42.960 that you live in a brainwashed place these people don't even know i think a lot of these liberals

00:08:47.000 they're not just maliciously doing this they're just trying they're they're resting on their laurels

00:08:53.620 this is this is what they believe in the bottom of their heart and they and it's sad and and i don't

00:08:58.540 know that i think some of them do actually think that it's uh bullshit but you know i'm trying to find

00:09:05.980 another one here um well i think a lot of people don't really get how democracy is supposed to work

00:09:12.240 like it's supposed to be like a slow moving machine where there's two opposite parties like

00:09:17.440 neither one can have control over everything and i think people don't like that they want it to be

00:09:23.240 oh no we have our way for the next like 50 years and everything will be perfect

00:09:27.680 well the liberals have had their time they've had trudeau in office for a long time now uh however many

00:09:34.720 years eight years and they've really accomplished nothing except for legalizing making well putting

00:09:42.820 the country in more debt than it's ever been ever with covid and all the shit that they did during the

00:09:47.440 pandemic that people didn't really get to vote for they didn't people there was no like public

00:09:52.840 consensus hey do you guys want welfare for three years and then not work and shut down every business

00:09:58.760 i think people would have said no and a resounding vote that's a democracy no people did not have a vote

00:10:04.480 on this and and i don't know if conservatives were in power if that would have changed anything this

00:10:08.820 was a global phenomenon of governments around the world particularly western nations taking it upon

00:10:15.480 themselves to become more authoritarian to protect from their perspective to protect us from the

00:10:21.180 pandemic but they did become more authoritarian i mean there's no question that it's it feels like

00:10:26.360 they're more authoritarian at least within the perception that people like it is more authoritarian

00:10:33.460 there's more rules there's more people are more on edge people are afraid to fucking speak out

00:10:38.600 people are afraid to tweet people are afraid to talk the people the people tweeting against the

00:10:43.640 government and this is the one thing the left has is like yeah a lot of these people on the right

00:10:48.600 are fucking not that educated and they are pretty dumb and i make fun of them for that too but guys

00:10:54.860 they're not wrong and i've always said that like i'm making fun of you guys but i agree with your basic

00:10:58.540 basically everything you think except certain things yeah but in terms of free speech and uh you

00:11:07.100 know just being an open and free society the left is not really achieving that right now they're not

00:11:13.960 protecting that it just feels like they're trying to fuck it up for and you know like even just i was

00:11:19.260 like the idea that you can't call things retarded and you can't say this word and that it's because

00:11:24.540 that's a way to describe how they're at like a lot of people like want to just be like this is

00:11:29.260 retarded i mean people forget that that even started in the 90s that political correctness

00:11:33.900 and stuff like that that started you know almost 30 years ago and it's just blown up to this point

00:11:38.960 where now you know if you tell someone at your work that you you want to vote conservative they're

00:11:43.820 gonna like tell hr at least that's how most people that's how most people feel and like whether or not

00:11:49.260 it's true or not this is one of the big things is is cbc is trying to say that they're not biased

00:11:55.060 cbc is trying to go i'm we're not biased but guys you don't hire how many people at cbc

00:12:02.060 are pro pierre or openly pro conservative or pro ppc or or like pro you know like it's like anybody

00:12:12.080 pro ppc no you're not allowed to work here anybody if you're pro conservative we're watching you i

00:12:16.320 there's no they don't have any political pundits coming out and going i agree with this i think

00:12:21.100 that they're probably nobody at cbc can go on cbc and say i agree that we're publicly funded and i

00:12:28.920 do think that there's some influence from the government nobody can do that so doesn't that

00:12:33.520 mean that they're fucking completely biased i remember remember that guy they approached us

00:12:38.280 when we were filming one of the mayor videos with boardman the cbc journalist and he said that

00:12:42.680 you know there are people that are on the right in cbc the problem that i think that

00:12:47.560 he thought well that's what he said but i think the problem is that the editors

00:12:51.600 and the people i don't think that's the problem dude i think that guy was lying through his teeth

00:12:55.700 and i think he was full of shit and i think all the yes and i think a lot of these fucking cbc

00:13:00.560 fucks are full of shit their idea of oh we got a couple right wing guys they have one guy who

00:13:05.620 never mentioned it ever and they all looked it up on his twitter from four years ago and they saw that

00:13:10.060 he voted harper and then they and they're like he's right way they don't have people openly at

00:13:14.860 the office going hey actually i think the diversity inclusion thing's a bit much they don't have those

00:13:19.760 voices and and neither does the corporate world and that's what's fascist about it i'm not i'm not

00:13:24.500 trying to be like crazy conspiracy but like is it not fascist when the government and the corporations

00:13:30.040 are all using the same tactics to have people work for them and and using all these diversity

00:13:35.980 inclusion things to to just push the agenda that it's i don't know part of me thinks that that's

00:13:43.420 bad part of me thinks it's good yeah you want to have diverse workplaces and stuff but i think it

00:13:49.240 would happen anyway if you didn't if you just wanted to hire people like with the best credentials like

00:13:55.980 i don't know maybe i'm wrong but also like what the fuck are we trying to do here like you can start

00:14:00.980 a company in canada any person can start a company so go start a company and say only blacks or only

00:14:06.620 well it is kind of racist if you get a job based off the fact that like if i got something in comedy

00:14:12.380 just because i'm brown like i wouldn't feel as accomplished if it was like no arm and you've

00:14:16.260 been experienced and you have all this so but that happens every day it's patronizing so that happens

00:14:21.240 every fucking day all the comics we're just watching um some yeah cbc comedy on the t shitty tv here in

00:14:28.420 vagina because there's nothing else to do like we're just talking shit on twitter about cbc and

00:14:33.080 watching cbc because just watching corner guys mentally ill because now i look like brent but

00:14:37.620 but anyway um no uh we're watching some of these oh that show the ad for the the like new young

00:14:47.700 talent something canadian stand-up comedy young talent type thing i'm sorry but some of the people that i

00:14:52.720 saw in that clip first of all most of them i didn't even recognize and the people that i did i'm like

00:14:57.140 that person bombs every fucking show i've ever seen them do that person bombs every do you think

00:15:02.300 that person goes on shows that i'm on and people come up to me after the show and go who the why

00:15:07.960 that person sucked can i ask you a question though do you think 20 years ago in canadian comedy was

00:15:13.300 similar though maybe not as extreme and polarizing but there was still clean for tv acts and then there

00:15:18.700 was probably guys like well i think the aaron berg like 15 years ago he probably wouldn't have been

00:15:23.180 on cbc but he was murdering same thing with russell peters yeah but also i know russell peters

00:15:28.440 was on cbc oh really okay well he well first of all russell peters got his comedy now yeah but that

00:15:34.160 was not cbc was it that was that was ctv though but it's still like it's still in the realm of right

00:15:41.000 like if you get that then you and like he he did just for laughs and he did a lot so

00:15:45.960 it was definitely different it was definitely different and like i'm sure the fact that he

00:15:52.080 wasn't white helped with that kind of thing but and you know was there to some extent i'm not

00:15:56.640 arguing that i think i should be on cbc what i'm arguing is they shouldn't be doing this thing

00:16:04.360 anymore where with what with what's going on with social media and how you can actually go that

00:16:09.840 person's talented that person has a fall and why are you picking people that are untalented

00:16:15.620 that really shouldn't be doing comedy in the first place at all at all and you're giving them

00:16:21.380 a career and you're leading them on and you're fucking up the whole comedy culture of just for

00:16:27.180 laughs all these other all these other things and you're basically making people care less about

00:16:32.600 canadian comedy i'm actually making if anything more people are watching cbc because of me

00:16:37.300 they watch me and they go i fucking hate ben bankus and then they turn on cbc they watch cbc

00:16:43.800 comedy and they watch some guy make fun of pierre polivera for four hours and they're like that now

00:16:48.000 i feel better but so that like that's what i'm doing for them and i'm just i'm not saying that

00:16:53.100 i want to be but they've done this to themselves they've done this to themselves is what i'm saying

00:16:57.860 do you think they're not in the business of making stars though and they want to keep comics in

00:17:01.660 canada to create a more like a culture of comedy here so that like it's not like oh he did cbc he got

00:17:07.600 jfl and then he left and now we have to look for another guy to get well i mean russell peters did

00:17:11.860 that and then came back like and but russell peters was he would do cbc special selling out clubs and

00:17:17.300 yeah but i'm saying that even after he was famous he would come back and do a cbc special for christmas

00:17:21.800 and this and that and do that so i'm like they still associated with him as being a canadian celebrity

00:17:27.120 they still do and like i'm not saying that i need to be with cbc i'm just saying that what they're

00:17:33.500 going through right now with being labeled government funded they brought it on themselves

00:17:37.180 they did they literally had there's nothing that they're doing that somebody who with open eyes

00:17:44.740 wouldn't look at and go these guys are propaganda and they're trying to prop up trudeau and what i

00:17:50.860 said in the patreon you can listen to the patreon i talked a little more about it but they the cbc

00:17:56.820 from before trudeau was in like the people go well when harper was in the cbc never um

00:18:03.480 you know was they were against harper uh-huh and it's like yeah and then they got him out

00:18:09.620 and then they stayed on the side of getting him out and they and then they just kept propping up

00:18:14.600 trudeau they covered they helped him get what you know wash away the blackface wash away they if

00:18:20.460 they were independent journalists they would have been like this is fucking bullshit this guy's full

00:18:24.200 of white privilege piece of shit his dad was prime minister he thought he could just come here and

00:18:29.260 legalize weed and do a bunch of blackface and blah blah blah but no they're just like oh well

00:18:34.160 it's not that big of a deal yada yada yada so they just stayed on his side and it's gotten to the

00:18:39.320 point where it's so insane they're so insanely on his side they're so insanely on the side of the

00:18:43.560 pharmaceutical companies and on the side of fucking walmart and amazon and all these people and

00:18:48.040 on the side of the transgender movement and on the side of blm blindly no criticisms of any of the

00:18:54.000 movements any of the social justice movements and what negative impacts those social justice

00:18:58.180 movements have had on our society in the last fucking three years just blind ignorance and

00:19:04.380 blindly going yeah and more and let's have a million pride flags in every bank of montreal like

00:19:10.480 every bank you go how can you go into a bank and there's there's more pride flags than fucking

00:19:14.820 tellers working at the fucking bank i'm sorry folks but at a certain point it's just propaganda

00:19:19.580 and that's all the canadians want the cbc and trudeau to recognize and to apologize for is yeah

00:19:26.980 we fucked with you we fucked with you hard and you know what nobody's talking about right now too with

00:19:32.580 the cbc um getting labeled government funded right now the article that came out almost two years ago

00:19:39.020 that the canadian government and the canadian military actually did do like propaganda through

00:19:46.900 the media to test canadian's readiness for other so they literally were propagandizing like there's

00:19:54.040 no doubt about it that cbc all of them national post even the right-wing ones were propagandizing left

00:19:59.700 left-wing stuff toronto star remember when the toronto star came out with that front page where it was all

00:20:04.780 the tweets from people telling people who are vaccinated to like basically go fucking die or you

00:20:10.740 don't deserve to have a hospital bed if you get sick because you didn't get vaccinated and all that crazy

00:20:14.840 shit they pushed that as mainstream narrative no criticism of it hey maybe we should fucking do

00:20:22.200 this and maybe and when trudeau was saying oh you know i uh you know what did he he said about uh you

00:20:29.800 know they're all racists and everybody who's a he's a there's a racist who didn't get the vaccine and

00:20:34.920 and blah blah blah and the news never said that this is this has negative connotations it was the

00:20:40.800 independent journalists like rebel and fucking keen and fucking true north and those guys that

00:20:48.720 actually wrote any article saying how this is problematic and then the right-wing news in the

00:20:53.880 states picks it up and then the left-wing news goes look the right-wing news is is doing propaganda

00:20:59.980 and trying to trick you guys into they wouldn't have had to do that if fucking cbc was independent

00:21:05.300 and they just fucking told the truth if they had just done actual journalism instead of hiring

00:21:10.660 ryerson university fucking york university like oh i'm a journalist girl i went to carlton like i have

00:21:18.400 a really nice laptop macbook air and i love writing articles about trans people that's not a fucking

00:21:24.320 journalist the cbc used to actually have journalists they used to send them to fucking afghanistan

00:21:29.020 and and be in the in the middle of uh live fire and shit and in iraq and stuff well they still do

00:21:34.600 that which is interesting barely we saw that last night they were what did they do they sent the

00:21:38.840 journalist to sudan because there's the uprising there they still do stuff like that part of what

00:21:44.860 i think more actually is not that they're so nefarious and intelligent to actually run a

00:21:49.340 propaganda scene i feel like that's giving them way too much credit and it's a little crazy i think

00:21:53.840 most people they're just asleep at the wheel they're nine to five workers they don't really respect

00:21:58.980 the duty a journalist has to deliver information to the public and they just take what's given to

00:22:04.220 them and they write what they're told and they collect their 90k 120k a year salary it's a lot

00:22:08.720 like our health workers where they were just re-uttering like what the that's true but then

00:22:12.420 the people who challenge them and go hey you're not fucking actually doing journalism then they stand

00:22:16.780 there go you don't know what i do well yeah i mean that's the problem that's a natural human

00:22:21.080 but dude that's but you can this is a time when if you're you can make money you can make hundreds

00:22:25.640 of thousands of dollars online as a journalist right if you're an actually good journalist like the

00:22:30.220 project guys and you have patreon if you're willing to take that risk yeah and you're willing to

00:22:34.580 actually go out there and actually do journalism but look what you'll be rewarded assange right like

00:22:39.180 a lot of people are afraid of that and it well that's the point is like how can cbc like we're

00:22:44.360 living in this world where it's like if you out the government for doing bad things you are a bad

00:22:49.420 person but the government should be allowed to tell us whatever they want and not and if you're if you

00:22:54.720 call their media companies state funded then somehow you're you're threatening democracy if

00:23:00.560 anything that makes democracy stronger you want a better democracy get rid of cbc break it up have

00:23:06.500 all your little local tv stations and fuck and who watches those tv stations do people actually watch

00:23:11.720 those tv stations no there's more people on fucking twitter and there's more people on instagram and

00:23:16.680 every other social media platform communicating being part of the conversation than just sitting

00:23:22.320 like an idiot watching fucking cbc or listening to fucking cbc radio i need my local news and by the

00:23:29.160 way i remember i was listening to cbc radio i'd listen to cbc radio just to get pissed off that's what i do

00:23:36.000 i was listening to cbc radio when i was out uh by chatham at the fiance's place and she uh and and there

00:23:43.060 was literally on there talking about um there was a sports team in chatham it was a hockey team or

00:23:53.620 something they got a new hockey team like some and they named it some sort like the black like i don't

00:24:00.860 know like the black blackbirds oh blackbird yeah what's wrong with that they got that's a bird all

00:24:06.740 like one woke person got upset got upset and emailed in and no because it's like a native thing

00:24:13.720 oh and and and then they literally had to change it so this is the cbc reporting they're changing the

00:24:20.460 name and blah blah and but you can tell they're like basically in support of it they're not they're

00:24:26.140 not going is this really good necessary no it's oh we're changing the name because it affects native

00:24:31.200 and that's that that's the end of the story it native end of the story gay end of the story

00:24:35.920 trans end of the story how is that journal journalism how is that independent journalism

00:24:39.760 when every story ends with you know and here's the left wing take you know so it's it's like every

00:24:46.320 porn ending with come on the face it's it's it's it's just that's what they do so if they had just

00:24:53.400 been honest and they've been like look we are government funded we're going to look at ways to make it

00:24:57.620 less biased we're going to look at ways to hire more conservative voices in cbc yeah we're going

00:25:03.200 to look at ways to do we have power in politics let's do another show that's conservative do it

00:25:09.220 fully have fox news and cnn under one roof and make people debate and and and right and that's

00:25:16.600 real that's real democracy that would be real that's what it was in ancient greece they would

00:25:20.560 have debates and that's even what cbc used to be at one point they had people on both sides but now

00:25:25.500 it's just it's okay to be radically left and be like i wonder when did that pro child transition

00:25:31.720 but it's not okay to be what they call radically right which is essentially just outing pharmaceutical

00:25:36.740 companies for fucking us over outing uh these state-run media companies for feeding us lies so

00:25:43.880 that the pharmaceutical companies but like i'm not trying to fucking be a like whatever this is just

00:25:48.580 the these are facts like i don't give a shit this is this is the reality i live in and these are

00:25:53.280 fucking facts well that's also the problem with how like rebel news is like privately funded

00:25:57.780 because check it then they can't really go against the narrative that they're kind of trapped in

00:26:02.000 because they need the people that support them to continue supporting them so that they can't

00:26:06.240 question certain things that might piss off or the government could be like you know what we'll

00:26:09.660 support rebel news or we'll support like a conservative that we have both yeah because

00:26:15.540 that's the whole idea that's why the conservative is the opposite or the true north one the true

00:26:19.600 north is like but their budget's super low all they do is like little podcasts yeah studio room

00:26:24.200 well that's why you have like the you know party in charge and then you have the opposition and you

00:26:29.780 have debates in parliament like that's what democracy should be is that it's a they should

00:26:33.940 have this thing somebody from who believes in trudeau uh pierre's shit and somebody who believes in

00:26:39.340 trudeau's shit and they should both be on fucking uh cbc and duking it out and people will say

00:26:45.400 oh they do have that they do have that don't you watch power in politics right you watch and i'll go

00:26:53.140 and watch and it's not fucking true they have a guy who's very like rarely will challenge the left

00:27:00.800 wing thing they they have this that that old lesbian professor woman that looks like her face is just

00:27:08.820 leathered out and she looks awful and she's on there and she has that accent and she says i know you know

00:27:15.120 david trudeau today i like him but it's bullshit right and everybody can see it and the people who

00:27:22.380 don't see it and believe that see there's people arguing that cbc is in the right here and that

00:27:26.940 they shouldn't be labeled this and all that stuff who don't watch it at all they don't fucking watch

00:27:31.320 cbc national every night the people tweeting all right well like this is abhorrent what that's

00:27:37.380 insane that people think it shouldn't be because it should you should at least know where your

00:27:41.820 information is coming from so that you can be the most objective when you take it in you shouldn't

00:27:45.880 just blindly accept anything if they want to regardless of where it's coming from the liberals

00:27:49.560 say that uh cbc is such a staple in canada and that people really really love it i mean really it is

00:27:56.140 it is a staple but the people that oh that we need to have if we need to have it so bad then why not

00:28:01.180 put it why not be transparent put it on patreon see how many people join cbc patreon they do that make

00:28:06.540 cbc gem no cbc gem is free for all canadians oh fuck you don't pay for that that's like an extra

00:28:11.820 bonus thing you can download on your phone oh shit if you have a canadian address and watch all this

00:28:16.040 shit for free oh fuck um and so the so there's all this shit on cbc gem that nobody fucking watches

00:28:22.800 that nobody fucking watches it has less than some of their episodes and shit probably has less than

00:28:27.700 2 000 views or whatever the fuck and there's people competing for rules in those shows it's it's it's a

00:28:34.920 dead end it's just it's sick it's sad maybe it's a necessary evil i don't want to sit here and say

00:28:40.620 that i think that the cbc should be defunded or destroyed or deleted but i think people should be

00:28:46.280 at least made aware which they are now and obviously it's embarrassing for the left because they're the

00:28:52.980 ones freaking out over this they're they're not taking it as well they're being sore losers right now

00:28:57.500 they're being the left is being sore losers strange the left is being sore losers over this

00:29:04.060 state-run media badge that's been put on twitter they're they're this is how bad the their sore loser

00:29:10.240 dumb is is they are literally going as far as saying that elon musk is is meddling in our elections

00:29:18.200 by making cbc have a badge that says it's state funded how is that meddling in elections

00:29:24.800 if cbc is independent if they're independent that's not meddling in elections the only way

00:29:30.540 that's meddling in elections is if you're saying that cbc they support trudeau so they're always going

00:29:38.280 to support trudeau so if you put a badge on it and try to make people think that that's somehow

00:29:42.140 manipulated by trudeau then you have this you see where i'm going with this they can't

00:29:49.680 pretend like they're not a propaganda liberal propaganda when they get slapped with the

00:29:56.700 badge and then they freak out if they weren't liberal propaganda they wouldn't freak out they'd

00:30:00.800 be like on yeah some of the money is we're subsidized why not just we're subsidized who

00:30:06.080 cares didn't even say state run it didn't say no no exactly it was funded which is the same as

00:30:10.840 subsidized twitter fucked or cbc fucking is so insane they have probably probably the people they have

00:30:15.900 working on this crisis by the way at cbc are like fat women's gender neutrals with bad glasses

00:30:24.260 short haircuts warning it's bad they don't have fucking smart people there anymore they have dumb

00:30:31.880 woke idiots running the fucking place and what they're trying to do is they're trying to um

00:30:38.140 you know send out that they sent out tweet the tweet saying right that they're taking off and

00:30:42.860 they're and they're like the idea that we're not independent is untrue it's like you literally

00:30:47.660 look like an angry girlfriend writing a email you're gonna regret like yeah you don't seem

00:30:54.400 rational you seem insane for writing that cbc to act like that uh elon musk is insane every fucking

00:31:02.120 cbc article is ratioed and it's all people being like this a lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie and they

00:31:07.980 just want to be like we are never lying we've never lied and everything we've said is true

00:31:12.020 fuck you i'm leaving this country it's interesting that they'll still they'll complain because

00:31:17.660 independent i mean you're with a large broadcasting corporation like global news isn't independent

00:31:22.780 neither is city tv like none of them are if you're a journalist and you're working for city tv like

00:31:27.240 that's not independent journalism like daniel boardman is an independent journalist correct

00:31:31.320 you know what i mean he's independent so if somebody were to tell him that he's you know not

00:31:35.660 independent then he but he is because he's literally independent he's in his apartment just doing

00:31:39.620 live streams and doing his own research they even said in one of the tweets about them being

00:31:42.920 their journalistic independence and blah blah blah that uh our journalists are independent and abide

00:31:49.820 by the journalistic standards act it's like so they're independent but they have to abide by your

00:31:55.800 rules so how the fuck are they independent what what is that standards are is it like something the

00:32:00.260 canadian government it's a fucking woke bullshit thing that's basically like

00:32:03.800 they can't be discriminatory and blah blah blah so like certain articles are going to get rewritten

00:32:09.960 because they're discriminatory or they're that's always a bad one because if they're if the bias is

00:32:15.080 not liberal and you have if you write an article at cbc and you just write a conservative bias article

00:32:19.660 they're gonna they're gonna say no it's always weird when a white person is telling like minorities

00:32:23.940 what's discriminatory because shouldn't it be like us that decide what's like offensive and what what i

00:32:29.120 would rather like to hear rather than 100 percent white guy it's white people deciding what other

00:32:33.220 white people basically and brown and it's the same as racism it's just not just backwards racism

00:32:38.240 comedy movies suck now it's racism for you it's it's woke wokeism is hey i'm racist but you're gonna

00:32:44.360 it's it's for your uh benefit yeah it's like it's like the old joke like person of color is just

00:32:49.240 another way of calling me colored you know what i mean it's the same it's just another label the

00:32:53.100 people who came up with woke obviously looked at people of other races and went that's a this and this

00:32:57.980 is that exactly they did because they don't have friends all these woke people they don't have

00:33:02.380 friends that aren't fucking yeah they're all from like small towns even all the cbc comedy most of

00:33:07.040 the like the comedy bar and shit it's it's all like five white guys and the one brown trans yeah

00:33:12.960 that's that's what it is i don't know why why and what i don't i don't give a shit but that's just

00:33:19.860 i'm just telling you what it is but uh whatever i was gonna say about the the cbc is this this whole

00:33:25.100 thing is just totally crazy to me because it's one of those days that reminds me of the pandemic

00:33:29.620 when everything just kind of starts turning and like the anger in trudeau's voice around uh this

00:33:38.580 whole situation is terrifying and here's the article i was gonna actually read this for a second we can

00:33:43.800 actually this is trudeau's response to this going on and this is um steven gobo fucking this weird

00:33:53.560 that weird guy who's like the head of the environment he was the head of the he was head

00:33:57.900 of like history not history but whatever heritage heritage minister for a bit and now he's environment

00:34:04.080 oh i remember this fucking guy and everyone hated everybody hates him and he has this even liberals

00:34:09.120 hated this fucking guy well he had a bull cut and he was basically anti-free speech and he's the guy

00:34:14.180 he really pushed hard for bill c11 he's a total i remember this guy this guy is a piece of shit as far

00:34:19.460 as far as politicians go he's the type of guy who is wants to what they call push for change they're

00:34:26.340 always talking about we're pushing for change which means soon you'll be begging for change that's what

00:34:30.800 that means um so he says millions of canadians rely on cbc radio canada at pierre polivier wants to

00:34:39.640 shut down those homegrown information services and sides with u.s media giants polivier is a threat to

00:34:47.120 canadian democracy plain and simple that though them is fighting words i'm sorry but this is what

00:34:54.700 i'm talking about this is a crazy day in history though that was very like if you like be objective

00:34:59.440 about what he said when he says like oh he's pushing for u.s media giants it does make it seem

00:35:03.760 like polia is but also abandoning canadian media so it's it he's doing whoever wrote that for him

00:35:09.900 is doing a good job well it's sound not malicious it's coming this is coming hot off the presses of the

00:35:15.800 propaganda department the actual propaganda department not even the what they call cbc

00:35:21.000 this is like down the pipe but anyway this is what trudeau had to say

00:35:25.040 hold it closer

00:35:28.980 i think it says a lot about the conservative party of canada that they're choosing to constantly attack

00:35:43.420 independent media organizations journalists who are working hard to keep canadians informed and

00:35:51.660 support our democracies cbc radio canada the irony of him saying support our democracy while he's like

00:36:01.060 not allowing a debate to happen i mean that's that's what greek democracy was that's literally

00:36:07.640 where it started what the west does now is when they say threatens your democracy it's code for

00:36:13.120 threatens our hegemony our our ruling our rule is threatened by you doing this they're not

00:36:21.640 talking about actual democracy because they don't give a shit about actual democracy all he cares

00:36:25.580 about is that he is in power yeah and if you want to be in power no fucking way look at look at jagmeat

00:36:32.980 what he did to jagmeat like a like a sick little puppy he basically just you know he's or not a sick

00:36:37.960 little puppy but like like punishing a puppy uh-huh and saying you can get food but you fuck you can be a

00:36:45.800 part of my process and by because there's a they sign this crazy thing in coalition the coalition

00:36:51.220 thing that they're that they also another it's not a coalition that's untrue and cbc is not propaganda

00:36:57.840 that's untrue and we did not uh uh collaborate with china for the the election meddling that is not

00:37:04.460 untrue and it you know trudeau basically what they found out is that trudeau was briefed before the

00:37:09.300 fucking election that they were meddling but for him they were trying to make him win so he didn't do

00:37:15.340 anything about it because he wanted to fucking win that's fucking that's like insane i don't know

00:37:21.400 what kind of crime that is but that there must be some sort of crime associated with that cbc does

00:37:26.800 not fucking talk about that every day they're not fucking they're not hammering him oh they're not

00:37:31.480 questioning cbc and the other uh journalists have there's a set of questions they're allowed to ask

00:37:38.180 there's a set of questions they're allowed to ask and if the question doesn't meet their standards

00:37:42.820 a lot of the times they don't answer it that's why if rebel news or any of the other news

00:37:46.300 organizations they don't answer it and then they just go why won't you answer our questions and they

00:37:49.840 say oh because you guys support hateful rhetoric online and so i can't that's fucking bullshit that's

00:37:57.720 fucking code word 1984 bullshit folks i'm sorry to be so up front today and honest about what's going

00:38:04.560 on i maybe i'm sorry if this wasn't the funniest podcast you've ever listened to in my world but this is

00:38:09.900 an important podcast because i have a voice and i think that i'm right about a lot of this shit

00:38:14.680 i honestly think i'm right and not because i'm coming from like some fucked up egotistical

00:38:18.900 i want to be right about everything and i want to this shit's driving me nuts too so this is uh this

00:38:25.080 is from like last week i don't know if you saw this but there was obviously the embezzlement from

00:38:28.460 the trudeau foundation by his spouse and his mother but then there was like a large chinese state

00:38:33.140 back company that donated a lot of money and then there's been a wave of resignations from the board

00:38:38.720 of the peer elliot trudeau which is like two days ago yeah which is this is their this is their

00:38:43.660 liberal talking about this no cbc's not talking about this regardless if you're liberal or not

00:38:48.140 your leader of your country whose father runs a foundation in his family name had had he's dead

00:38:54.840 right oh yeah i think well rest in peace big dog all right but that's exactly true that's horrible

00:39:00.820 it's like biden with his son getting money from uh ukrainian gas and raytheon and and dude the

00:39:05.700 whole west is just littered with corruption insider trading it's we're just so backwards we're

00:39:10.640 completely corrupted and but you're totally right and then so that's a huge scandal that happened

00:39:15.380 literally two days ago and so then when they get slapped with the state funded media which part of

00:39:19.700 the reason they're probably getting slapped with that is because pierre's proving why they're probably

00:39:23.740 making he's proving why they're state funded because he knows that they're not talking about this

00:39:28.000 shit they get the state fund and then look now this is a huge scandal that cbc every article is just cbc

00:39:34.080 gets off twitter cbc gets off twitter that's the only article that you see right now exactly and at

00:39:39.480 the same time what about the fucking money that came from china that swept under the table and now

00:39:45.780 every liberal fucking join the list is out there going well that's election meddling because elon

00:39:53.240 slapped the badge on and that's election so you're admitting that you meddled in the election with china

00:40:00.160 and you're basically saying but that's not as bad as him slapping a badge getting hundreds and

00:40:04.760 hundreds of thousands of dollars by the way that we know about is from china from the chinese communist

00:40:09.820 party is not worse than elon musk slapping a badge on cbc not every cbc by the way not every single

00:40:20.120 local cbc or every cbc comedy i would love for cbc comedy to get it slapped with a uh state funded

00:40:26.800 badge and you know because well i think it's well known that the arts are granted right well but

00:40:32.240 they're also same thing it's the same fucking propaganda if you watch cbc comedy but my point

00:40:36.380 is that they only did it to the one account just at cbc just the one one not cbc news they didn't say

00:40:43.480 cbc news but just cbc the whole thing and not the other ones because there's like a million of them

00:40:48.620 there's a million right yeah and they fucking are pausing everything because of that you're the

00:40:54.280 overreaction itself is proof that you guys are not fucking transparent that you're not

00:41:00.520 fucking you're not telling the truth you're fucking lying and it's obvious and anybody who thinks the

00:41:06.280 opposite is dumb i know that's one of the most fundamental things with journalism is that it

00:41:11.220 should be transparent you should hear every side of the argument you should just be able to hear it

00:41:15.400 and go okay i know what's going on not the idea that they want it with bill c11 and limiting speech

00:41:20.960 and hate speech and you're not allowed to say this definitely yeah folks ask any person from a

00:41:25.940 third world uh dictatorship oh yeah and you'll know that the second they start taking away any rights

00:41:31.160 to speech even if it's just and even if it's those words which by the way are like i might get clocked

00:41:38.540 i might make a little less money on some of those maybe i'll bleep those so i can still get monetized

00:41:43.480 on here for for for now but those words are the beginning it's the same thing with it's the same

00:41:51.320 thing with cigarettes that oh and now we're gonna make uh cigarettes all the same package color and

00:41:56.480 now you can't see the cigarettes behind the counter we have a thing that folds down so you can't see

00:42:00.660 them oh and now we're gonna tax the shit out right and what about and the same thing with alcohol

00:42:05.680 we're all we're gonna tax alcohol more on it who are the people who are most addicted to alcohol

00:42:10.060 the people the woke people think that they care about the fucking native people who have no choice

00:42:15.480 but to be addicted to alcohol sorry their lives are shit but you're not helping them get off alcohol

00:42:19.740 and they're on alcohol and they smoke cigarettes and you're saying that okay we're gonna tax you for

00:42:24.000 that i know that they get their cheaper like that oh you got your cheap smokes on the still fucked up

00:42:30.300 is it not fucked up not all fucking natives are buying that but not all poor people are native and

00:42:36.040 and they're all most poor people are addicted to cigarettes and fucking booze and weed and all

00:42:41.160 this shit that the government's taxing the shit out of and they're pretending that they're fucking

00:42:44.780 woke and caring about these people it's sick profiting off the fact that they're making us

00:42:49.580 a large percent of the population turn to substance abuse you know i mean think about how many people

00:42:54.900 smoke weed every day now since the pandemic and everyone's drinking and smoking yeah they're literally

00:43:00.060 just profiting off the fact that they're making your life worse and they're making you all insane the

00:43:03.700 only way you can deal with this whole fiasco of what's happening on twitter is if okay if you're

00:43:08.540 the strongest strongest person i don't i'm putting it away i'm not going to think about it i'm going

00:43:13.000 to go on with my day but but a lot of people don't have that they're fucking addicted to the phones

00:43:17.120 yeah all they see all day is cbc twitter soon they're reading all the tweets they're reading all

00:43:21.580 the ideas they're reading and the only place you can really have this conversation is twitter

00:43:25.300 instagram instagram it's like everybody's seemingly on c on six buzz yeah six but they're just like

00:43:33.280 instagram's a bad place no but everybody on six buzz agrees they're like yeah they're a bunch of

00:43:37.060 clowns like a lot of the even though like fucking whatever black and brown and fucking well yeah

00:43:41.960 they're just like because they have they know it's bullshit they have no white guilt white people

00:43:45.900 convinced that they should feel bad whereas everyone if i wasn't white i would way more trust

00:43:50.840 pierre to kind of make everybody get more money because that's what trump did too and i'm not saying i'm

00:43:57.000 a trump guy but i'm just saying if the fuck if people have more money and their jobs are better

00:44:01.280 the economy's booming you don't need to be worried about all these stupid social issues

00:44:05.460 if the economy's booming you don't need to have a trans fucking flag at every teller at at rbc or

00:44:12.480 whatever bank you bank you don't need that kind of shit because people are just rich and they're

00:44:16.760 having fun and they're enjoying life this is some sort of appeasement of the poor era and appeasement of

00:44:22.560 the the the left behind and blah blah blah and i get that it's sad that these people's lives suck

00:44:27.920 but we don't need this is what they do with equity let's make everybody's life sucks but now

00:44:34.220 because your life sucks no your life can suck fuck off this is supposed to be a free work hard if

00:44:40.280 you want your life to not suck that's what got us to the moon they don't want you to do they don't

00:44:44.440 even want you to they want you to be incentivized to not work hard you make 200 grand oh we're going

00:44:48.800 to tax you 50 you only made 100 grand what kind of fucking incentive is that for a young adult who

00:44:53.260 wants to to make something of themselves in this country oh so it's a big fucking kick in the nuts

00:44:57.720 when you start making money or you start doing anything of value in this country so fuck the cbc

00:45:04.560 sorry that i'm saying this but i don't know you haven't helped me thus far maybe you could help me

00:45:12.140 maybe you couldn't i don't know i feel like uh the cbc put me in one article and and they just

00:45:19.360 i had to ask them because they had they were putting out this article yeah that i heard about

00:45:25.360 that all the other all the outdoor shows that were put on during the pandemic and i was the first

00:45:29.740 outdoor show in the pandemic yeah i was the biggest outdoor show in the pandemic i got fucking ticketed

00:45:34.320 for it i already had articles written about it and these fuckers basically tried to skim over me and

00:45:41.860 they were writing articles about this girl jennifer sung that's now a fucking cp24 what uh journalist

00:45:48.500 journal journalist well she's a talking head anchor he was anchor but she was she was like a 38 year

00:45:55.420 old like house mom who like started doing stand-up and she had like come to the park and she was

00:45:59.080 pretty cool for a while but then she realized all the woke people hate me and she could profit off

00:46:02.660 their hate of me and so she started her own show in her backyard of her big house of her husband's

00:46:07.680 big house and uh got on in the cbc and i i was like why the fuck am i not in this article oh okay

00:46:13.320 you can be in this article so wow you know and i should have been the whole article as far as i'm

00:46:19.520 concerned the other shows were jokes they were people's backyards and i actually did something

00:46:24.420 that broke the rules but also showed people that this is bullshit yeah people there were comics trying

00:46:30.600 to cancel me doing comedy shows in parks during 2020 of the summer of 2020 stating that i was spreading

00:46:37.560 disease in the community and i was putting people at risk this is insanity folks i'm sorry these people

00:46:44.220 are fucking insane i'm sorry i i like i don't it's not it's been a long day we've been locked in a

00:46:53.340 regina yeah uh hotel room at first my hotel room was 91 degrees i had to beg them to change rooms we talk

00:47:01.740 about it more on patreon we changed i changed rooms now it's kind of nicer in here but the this this

00:47:07.580 whole hotel has five floors of ukrainian refugees which i have nothing against them very nice people

00:47:11.800 honestly have nothing against them happy they're here welcome obviously because they're white no i'm

00:47:16.380 just kidding i've i've stayed in a lot of hotels with refugees because i've done a lot of yuck yucks

00:47:21.060 gigs and they put you in refugee hotels and the refugees are always fine they're always cool

00:47:26.900 they're always chill so i have no fucking problem with that but regina is a bit of a dump

00:47:31.700 and we're kind of going in nuts here we have no comedy to do we have no shows until thursday until

00:47:36.940 we go to winnipeg then we have eight shows in two weekends and people are telling me winnipeg's

00:47:42.080 worse than regina which i just can't believe that i know but apparently it is but i think it's bigger so

00:47:47.460 and apparently there's more there's a lot of jews there so i i don't know saskatoon was really nice

00:47:52.360 um we talk more about the tour behind the scenes like i said on patreon i know a lot of people are

00:47:57.620 joining right now we're over 100 almost at 110 or something like that in terms of patrons i'd love

00:48:04.540 to be at a lot i'd love i love a thousand by the end of the year i think is a reasonable offer and

00:48:11.280 then we can really start doing some really creative stuff you know i just filmed a special basically in

00:48:17.340 edmonton which i know i talk shit and a lot of people like hate me for that show or whatever but i

00:48:21.540 talk shit uh i did it did this special in edmonton and it's actually i think it's really good it's

00:48:27.100 like gonna be a good special but i'd like to have you know it costs a lot of money yeah so anybody

00:48:32.580 who's donating on patreon over 100 bucks a year is gonna be on the um on the credits for the special

00:48:40.340 wherever we end up putting it you know maybe maybe it'll be on cbc maybe it'll be a cbc comedy special

00:48:47.300 um but we're gonna put it online somewhere and everybody who has given over 100 bucks a year

00:48:55.060 on patreon is going to get a credit mention um it was a wild show we could barely hear the audience

00:49:03.220 um on on the weird stage and you know it was a room that was supposed to fit like 400 people

00:49:10.160 and they only fit 235 but they called it sold out and they wouldn't let me sell any more tickets

00:49:15.220 and i was really frustrated when i got there and found this out

00:49:18.340 as i arrived like four hours before the show to find out that it was a massive room they said they

00:49:23.000 were going to wall off a lot of this show they didn't so it was just kind of a fucking nightmare

00:49:28.040 and uh you know for the audience it was weird and i had some really far right audience members there

00:49:35.960 who were like he's not awake enough because he made fun of pierre paula bear whatever the fuck or

00:49:41.600 he's not awake enough because he made fun of trudeau fuck trudeau flags yeah i basically made

00:49:45.980 fun of the right wing people who are going too insane basically people like me um no but uh i went

00:49:51.560 a little insane on this podcast today on twitter but i think a lot of people appreciate it and i don't

00:49:55.160 think a lot of people are able to articulate how they feel about this shit and i think i am so here

00:50:00.340 you go send this to your buddies so that they can have a cathartic moment where they realize that

00:50:04.760 other funny cool people think that this is fucking bullshit i think that really does make people feel

00:50:08.980 happier and better um so that's really important but like we said um we're going on tour still we

00:50:16.720 got more shows winnipeg there's still tickets available if you're in winnipeg uh i don't know
