Episode Forty: dEmOcRaCy @ tWiLiGhT feat. Josiah Hughes

Tannara, Drew & James break down Jagmeet Singh's surprising first ballot victory, Cdn journalists *already* being racist, why Netflix should give $500 million to us, ongoing chaos in Catalonia, and the St. John's municipal election. Then, to talk about Serious News, they bring on @josiahhughes — Exclaim's senior online editor and co-host of the Blink 182-obsessed podcast, "Blink 155" — to discuss his ultimate obsession: far-right Christian activist and eternal political candidate Larry Heather, who's currently running to be the mayor of Calgary.
