For this episode, in Global politics, we talk about the latest developments in the Russia/Ukraine War - with the latter putting some pretty impressive wins on the board. How will Putin likely react to such losses (hint: not well)? We discuss! For Federal politics, we talk about the (decisive) ascendency of Pierre (PP) Poilievre to the chair of Official Opposition and Leader of the Conservative Party of Canada. Should Trudeau be worried (hint: yes)? We discuss!

For the first time ever, we have a DOUBLE-report, with Mike reviewing, not one, but two podcasts which cover with the US midterm election - Campaign HQ (hosted by former Obama Campaign Manager, David Plouffe) and The Run Up (New York Times podcast hosted by Astead Herndon).
