Summary
In this episode, I analyze the growing trade tensions between the U.S. and Canada in light of the fentanyl crisis, which has become the leading cause of death for Americans aged 18 to 45. I discuss President Trump's declaration of a national emergency, imposing a 25% tariff on Canadian imports to pressure Canada into stronger action against drug trafficking.
I contrast the urgency in the U.S. with Canada's oblivion to the crisis and challenge listeners to prioritize public health over economic concerns. I critique the Canadian government's responses and advocate for compassionate dialogue and actionable solutions, emphasizing the human cost of inaction and inviting listener engagement on this critical issue.

| 0:07.3 | And listeners says, I've got through the first half of your novel, The Future. It's amazing, with many hypotheticals packed into, packed all into just one book. |
| 0:16.0 | Thank you. Hello from Dystopian Communist UK. Hmm. |
| 0:22.2 | This happened once to me once because some debris got into my eye and I couldn't get it out. |
| 0:27.0 | Yeah, my mother used to lick my eyeballs to get things out. |
| 0:30.4 | It was quite intimate in its own weird way, but I'm sure quite effective. |
| 0:36.0 | But, yeah, the glued shut eyes are horrible. I swear I've |
| 0:40.2 | had a cold since October. Yeah, this is, you drink lots of fluids. Yeah, appreciate that. I'm on |
| 0:46.0 | a lot of zinc, a lot of vitamin C and some bed rest. And I also find, believe it or not, |
| 0:52.8 | cardio, like sweating it out helps quite a bit. |

| 1:05.9 | I remember shortly after my daughter was born. |
| 1:08.4 | I got a bad bug, but that was like 16 years ago. And I have half of my |
| 1:13.6 | friends have the same thing, and it just kind of comes and goes. Like, it's weird. Normally, you get |

| 1:22.7 | you're okay. A couple of days. Oh, no, no. Now you've got brain fog. Oh, now brain fog has lifted a bit, |
| 1:31.3 | but now you have a sore throat. Oh, sore throats backed away a little bit. Now you've got a cough, |
| 1:34.9 | and it's just weird. Maybe it's to do with that fog. But it's something, man, it's a strange, |
