Previous Episode: Blowing It - 002
Next Episode: Garbage Island

Comedians Nat Armstrong and Mary Green discuss people, things, and institutions who are blowing it, and a few who aren't. This week they are joined by fellow comic Maggie Estey! Topics include the $12M the federal government gave Loblaws to buy some new fridges, Bozo Eruptions, updates on the Alberta and PEI provincial elections, plus return of Game of Thrones, and the new Star Wars movie. We are in our feelings about Space Mom.
