Summary

Luke Savage rejoins the gang to talk all about what Mark Carney’s government will actually bring Canada - the short answer is “more of the same shit that didn’t work the last four times it was tried.” Will this stop us making revolutionary jokes about Carney? Only time will tell, signs point to no. Also - we look at the rise of Hardman Labour, and read a truly horrifying exposé on Meta’s rules governing use of their chatbots.

want is imaginary friends. And we've kind of been pushing that for a long time. So I mean,

0:45.8

I kind of gleaned when I read careless people was like, these guys can't actually invent

1:16.3
