Episode 17 - Charitable Shenanigans (WE Scandal): Peoplekind News
Taylor and Matthew take a deep dive into the now-concluded WE Scandal. We’ve already covered the Kielburgers in-depth, but now we address their latest scandal, which spanned nearly an entire year and resulted in investigations, destroyed careers, millions of taxpayer money wasted, and another blemish on the scarred face of Justin Trudeau and his Liberals. Join us as we explore the deep ties between Liberal politicians and an international charity with scandals of its own. How did Trudeau mess up this badly? Why was WE Charity selected to run a government program? And what on earth were the Liberals thinking? We answer these questions and more! Thanks to Nate Jacobucci for creating our music!

Episode 16 - The Kielburgers, Feel Bad Activists (Part Two): Peoplekind of Canada
Taylor and Matthew continue their appraisal of Craig and Mark Kielburger, the founders of WE Charity and ME to WE. We talk how WE Charity has partnered with corporations who exploit and enslave children in their global supply chains; legal obfuscations; what does voluntourism actually accomplish; white saviours; regulatory mischief in Kenya; and the ease with which charity and crime walk hand-in-hand. Join us as we continue to grimace at charity megalomaniacs, Craig and Marc Kielburger. Also! We talk a bit of news: Record breaking temperatures in BC; should Canada Day be celebrated; and Matthew rambles about the ‘historical spirit’ that is seeing statues of oppressors being torn down and beheaded. For more on WE’s partnering with companies that exploit children, read the article from CANADALAND: Craig Kielburger Founded WE To Fight Child Labour.

Episode 15 - The Kielburgers, Feel Bad Capitalists (Part One): Peoplekind of Canada
Taylor and Matthew donate their time to appraise the ‘charitable acts’ of Craig and Marc Kielburger, the founders of WE Charity and ME to WE. We cover their lives from privileged wunderkinds to (allegedly) corrupt charity icons. We talk forbidden love with a donkey; the financial shenanigans that saw their charity (WE Charity) giving money to their for-profit business (ME to WE); allegations of bullying and racism at WE Charity; lying to children who believe they are raising money to build a school abroad; demon children and libel suits; and a PR team obsessed with stamping out any and all criticism (we look forward to the lawsuit, Kielburgers!) Join us as we stare into the abyss, recounting the rise and fall of the Kielburgers before the WE Scandal of 2020.

Episode 14 - Mad Max Goes to Jail: Peoplekind News
Taylor and Matthew talk Canadian news: We begin by acknowledging the tragic death of four members of a Muslim family by the hands of a hateful terrorist in London, Ontario. Also, the hypocrisy of Bloc and Conservative sentiments expressed to the media. Politics and religion intersect as churches thirsty for ‘persecution’ go against public health orders and worsen the pandemic. Matthew reveals his anti-Protestant bigotry. Maxime Bernier launches his ‘Mad Max’ tour and is promptly arrested. And lastly, we return to the Green Party, where an ancient war between bureaucrats and quasi-idealist bureaucrats worsens. Will Annamie Paul succumb to the demands of the Federal Council? Will the Federal Council ratchet up their alleged racism? Will the Green Party ever become an ideologically coherent party? (To the last one, no).

Episode 13 - Annamie Paul, Curmudgeonly Centrist Goo: Peoplekind of Canada
Taylor and Matthew sigh at Annamie Paul, the newest leader of the Green Party of Canada. We cover her life from well-intentioned uber professional to bad-intentioned neoliberal hack. We talk her failures to achieve a seat in the House of Commons; how her limp centrist blathering defeated eco-socialists; a strong anti-TikTok stance; the emptiness of diversity rhetoric without meaningful policy; allegations of racism in the Green Party; and Paul’s continued silence on whether wine or beer is better. Also, Matthew gets a bit too angry as centrism takes over yet another Canadian federal party. Join us as we dare to discuss one of the most boring, empty politicians Canada has produced so far, Annamie Paul.

Episode 12 - Canada is Bad, Folks: Peoplekind News
Taylor and Matthew talk Canadian news: Liberal MP William Amos still doesn’t know how to turn off his webcam and urinates in front of his fellow virtual MPs. Taylor goes after Manitoba premier, Brian Pallister, for his numerous failures regarding COVID-19. Despite the efficacy of magic mushroom therapy, the Liberals make it hard for terminally ill patients to access it. And then we take a more somber tone as we discuss the discovery of a mass grave at an old residential school in Kamloops. Trudeau gives us his best crocodile tears, while his government spends millions fighting survivors in court.

Episode 11 - Maxime Bernier, Mad Max Populism: Peoplekind of Canada
Taylor and Matthew go mad for Maxime Bernier, the current leader of the People’s Party of Canada. We cover his life from free-trade acolyte and corporate lawyer to the non-rise and fall of his embarrassing federal party. We talk Maxime’s fear of being seen as gay; his lifelong battle with the Dairy Cartel; Stephen Harper’s weird diet; how Jordan Peterson seduced Bernier to an even darker side; weirdo libertarian university students; making Canada great again with bad American political rhetoric; taking the red pill from a strange Frenchman; the sun causing global warming; and political intrigue! Join us as we applaud the political seppuku of ex-Conservative, Maxime Bernier.

Episode 10 - No Starbucks Under Socialism: Peoplekind Ramble
Special episode! Taylor and Matthew ramble for over an hour on topics and issues of interest. We also ask the big questions: Why on earth would someone create yet another ‘leftist’ podcast? We talk about bête noire of socialists everywhere – capitalism; the ethics of problematic jokes; who will work the ‘bad jobs’ under a socialist system; is new media dangerous for democracy; how we came to be concerned about the political and economic problems in Canada (i.e. origin story, baby); and again dunk on Trudeau for being an alleged sexual assaulter and for donning progressive values in a bad faith manner. Join us for our tenth episode, the first of many milestones (we hope).

Episode 9 - Yves-Francois Blanchet, Le Goon: Peoplekind of Canada
Taylor and Matthew go bilingual and talk about Bloc Quebecois leader, Yves-Francois Blanchet. We cover his life from coked up record label guy to one of the most prominent French politicians in Canada. We talk partying with francophone rock stars at strip clubs, the pushing forward of a discriminatory, Islamophobic, and racist bill in Quebec, an old allegation of sexual assault against Blanchet, calling a press conference to champion saying the n-word in universities, begging for an apology from Trudeau, racist tweets, and shutting down Ezra Levant’s psychotic far-right wing reporters. Join us as we mispronounce French names and wince at the rise of yet another Quebec sovereigntist, Yves-Francois Blanchet.

Episode 8 - Nefarious Nugget Tyranny: Peoplekind News
Taylor and Matthew talk Canadian news: The Liberal’s enact 1984-style censorship in the fevered fantasies of Conservative weirdos. The CRTC is about to demand that 2% of your social media posts feature Canadian content – unless you want Trudeau lurking in your mentions and DM’s! Around the country, white supremacists, rodeo clowns, and QAnon-types gather, sporting signs that say, “69’s over Masks.” And lastly, the Liberals reveal their hypocrisy in the disturbing case of Jonathan Vance and sexual misconduct in the military.

Taylor and Matthew sip from their reusable cups with metal straws and discuss a major proponent of environmentalism in Canadian politics, Elizabeth May. We cover her whole life, focusing mostly on her time with the Progressive Conservatives and as leader of the Green Party. We talk anti-pipeline vigilantism, poisoned lambs, the effects of taking too much cough syrup and wine before a speech, photoshop blunders, abortion, steel beams versus cave trolls, Bill Clinton’s penchant for private jets, and comparing Stephen Harper to a Nazi appeaser. Join us as we cringe and applaud the activism, blunders, good intentions, and incoherent non-ideology that make up the Anti-Harper, Elizabeth May.

Episode 6 - Gift Cards for Heroes: Peoplekind News
Taylor and Matthew talk Canadian news: A Canadian grocery empire gives gift cards to their frontline ex-heroes, but not raises. The Liberals half-heartedly reject austerity politics and take shots at the vaping community in their proposed budget. Billions are set aside for war machines. And again, no nationalized Pharmacare. The Bloc and the Liberals do nude photography during Question Period! And a Liberal MP puts forward a petition to protect the most endangered class of people in Canada… the police.

We talk police racial profiling in Ontario, saying the r-word in the House of Commons, street fighting, expelling fellow party members, bilingual trip-ups, and dad jokes on TikTok. Also, Matthew attempts to tepidly defend the patriarchy! Join as we explore the kindness, half-baked idealism, and awkwardness that make up meme lord extraordinaire Jagmeet Singh.

Ta-Nehisi Coates – Dawn of Comic Book Representation Justice. Jason Kenney wants to teach your kids about bad jazz, Greek philosophy, and how to (not) get away with plagiarism.

Taylor and Matthew get lost in the blue eyes of freshly cloned leader of the Conservative Party, Erin O’Toole. We cover his whole life, focusing primarily on his most recent years as a political actor. We talk drowning fishermen, Conservative party espionage, the (political) slaying of Peter MacKay, botched climate activism, and what it means to be a Conservative in 2021. Join us as we delve into the betrayal, waffling, and indecision that make up everyone’s (least) favourite balding white dad, apologist for residential schools, and fantasizer of executing elderly inmates, Erin O’Toole.

Episode 2 - RCMP (Racist Coloniser Mounted Police): Peoplekind News
Taylor and Matthew talk Canadian news: An opioid overdose crisis runs through the province of BC, killing hundreds – Justin Trudeau shrugs. The Resistance faceplants in their war against the Carbon Tax. Doug Ford is a (not-so) secret gremlin. The Lethbridge police slaughters wildlife and takes down the Galactic Empire one 19-year-old stormtrooper at a time. Police officers form a Meme Militia, and conduct a guerrilla war by stalking a local Environment Minister and posting Toy Story memes. On a more serious note, the RCMP are still incredibly racist as shown by their horrible conduct after the killing of Colten Boushie.

Episode 1 - Justin Trudeau, Beautiful Girl Sasquatch Hunter: Peoplekind of Canada
Taylor and Matthew discuss Justin Trudeau, current Prime Minister of Canada, from his birth in 1971 to his general election win in 2015. We talk tragedy, Santa Claus, a creepy eulogy, physical combat, extra-terrestrials, prophecies from Richard Nixon, and plenty of wacky shenanigans and gaffes.
