Podcast Introduction
00:00:00
Speaker
And another thing. And another thing. And another thing. And another thing. Welcome to another episode of And Another Thing, the podcast that continues to set the bar in the world of podcasts. My name
00:00:29
Speaker
is Jody Jenkins. My name is Tony Clement. And
Conservative Leadership Debate's Low Viewership
00:00:33
Speaker
back at it again, as of the recording, or as of the time of this recording, the third and final, hopefully, conservative leadership debate has happened. It's ended. And you were just telling me how many, I don't know if this is official, but how many people actually watched that leadership debate, Tony, according to your sources?
00:00:59
Speaker
Okay, so let me just say at the outset, no one should take what we say on our podcast without fact checking it. Can I say that? Yeah, sure. Okay. Has that happened before? Wait a second though. It's like, did something happen that I'm not aware of? Well, Paken emailed us and said that I wasn't in his second book, The Dark Side. I was in his first book. Well, that's not really fact checking. I mean, it's just he's the author and
00:01:23
Speaker
You kind of just got your wires crossed on that one. Yeah. I got my wires crossed. So I, I, I somehow on social media, I was told that there was 1800 people watching live the, uh, the Tory leadership debate tonight. So, uh, not a lot of people in Canada considering 38 million people in Canada and 1800 were
Early Voting in Conservative Race
00:01:43
Speaker
watching that debate. Yeah. And I would, I would honestly, I mean, again, I don't know if that's an accurate number, but I wouldn't doubt that it is pretty darn close. Uh, I,
00:01:52
Speaker
I know a lot of conservative friends or I have a lot of conservative friends. I know a lot of conservatives. None of them watched the debate. I didn't watch the debate. It did not seem to be very prevalent on social media either. No, I saw. So no, you're right. You're right. That's that's that's sometimes an indication, not always. But sometimes you're right, Jody. Well, here's here's here's an indication that's been, you know, pretty steady in the world of the Twitter verse.
00:02:20
Speaker
is normally when there's been any leadership debate on any party, on any level, there's usually these spaces that all of a sudden pop open and they invite people to come and give their thoughts. I didn't see any of that tonight after the debate. That's a very good point too. And so I, you know, look, I think that there's, again, don't hold me to this number, please. But I think that there's 140,000 ballots already in
00:02:44
Speaker
uh, to the party that these are people who've already voted for their respective choices for leader. Uh, that's out of 678,000. So there's a ways to go, but, uh, I think it's a pretty good indication that people have already decided how they want to vote if they're going to vote. Yeah. We're going to talk a little bit more about the leadership, um, race or lack thereof.
00:03:09
Speaker
when it comes to a race.

Speaker
including episodes of this show. Again, loonypolitics.com. Tony, I just got back from another cottage. That's all I've been doing all summer. I'm not complaining, but I'm a homebody. I'm home right now, but my family is still up at a cottage. Literally, we've been at a cottage for over a month. That's too long for me. But was Minden in your riding or no? No. No. Who would that have been?
00:06:42
Speaker
That would have been Federally Barry Devolin and then, uh, and then Jamie Schmail succeeded Barry. Yeah. Oh, okay. And so did you, but have you ever, you've been to Minden, obviously? Oh yeah, I've been to Minden. I love it. Have you been to River Cone? The, uh, I've been to River Cone. Yeah, sure. That's good. It's a famous spot. Yeah. No, I, uh, obviously that's, so that's where I, the cottage, one cottage is in Minden. So it's been, uh,
00:07:10
Speaker
It's been a busy time and the kids love the River Cone. Yeah, no, that's a good little spot and it is right by the river, is it not? Yeah, you could float right up there pretty much. Yeah, people are in floats and stuff like that, sort of winding their way down the river, right? That's right. Hence the name, River Cone. Very good. Good marketing by them. Yeah. You know, it's interesting, but I want to go back to the leadership for just a couple of minutes, the conservative leadership, if you're just joining us.
00:07:40
Speaker
Um, Pierre Poliev, obviously the front runner currently, I, I don't see anything good changing on that front. In fact, I'm still maintaining it. I'm sure you would agree. First ballot victory is, is we've, we called that a long time ago and we're still sticking to it, but now we don't want to take anything for granted. I know his organization is not doing that there. They're working hard for every vote, Jody. Yeah. Well, I don't, I, I can say whatever I want. I don't work for them.
Engaging Younger Voters: Pierre Poliev's Strategy
00:08:08
Speaker
So, um,
00:08:10
Speaker
first ballot victory. You heard it here first. Um, and I'll delete all these programs if it doesn't come. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Don't want to ever have a record of it happening. Uh, but I was going to say there was an interesting comment online. I feel like it was, I don't know a lot about this guy, but I know he common does commentary on stuff. JJ McCullough or something. Yeah. He had an interesting comment and I'm paraphrasing cause I, I, I don't remember exactly what it was, but the gist of it was something I definitely agreed with. And it was,
00:08:39
Speaker
He was just basically making a comment on people that don't understand the appeal of Polyev and where is he getting these new voters from? And how's he gonna win an election? And he made an interesting point about some of the stats and data that he has and the people he's been talking to in that younger age demographic that in a very simple sense, look at Pierre as someone who's gonna fight
00:09:07
Speaker
against what they view as kind of a BS government system. And that is exactly what the younger demographic, I'm not saying all of them, but I can tell you an overwhelming number of them look at the government and they go, they don't know what they're doing. And they look at Pierre and they go, this guy can get something done. It's not hate, it's not anger.
00:09:34
Speaker
It's not trucker convoys. It's literally this undercurrent in that demographic. And I can't for the life of me understand how these political pundits, these political experts can't see that. Oh, there's always six months behind what's going on in the general population at least. I don't know if you read Sabrina Maddow, former guest of our program.
00:09:59
Speaker
on this very same topic where she noted that the Conservative Party, let's face it, a lot of the polling on the Conservative Party right now, people are assuming that Pierre Polyeb is already the leader, okay? So it's starting to affect the general views about the Conservative Party of Canada, even though
00:10:17
Speaker
Pierre Poliev is not the leader yet, but they are already building that into their assumptions. So support in the 18 to 34 years old age cohort for the conservative party, Jodi, has increased by 17 points. Exactly.
00:10:35
Speaker
And it has decreased, interestingly, in the NDP. The NDP have gone down at least 10 points. And so Sabrina Maddow, former guest, her point is like Pierre Poliev is actually eating the lunch of Jagmeet Singh. He not only should Trudeau be worried, but Singh should be worried as well. Yeah, no, I totally agree. I guess maybe I'm giving too much benefit of the doubt.
00:11:03
Speaker
to some of these, again, I use air quotes, political experts and these commentators who, the only thing I can think that they're doing here is that they're trying to say things so opposite of what actually is going on in reality to simply get people outraged so they'll click on their stories. And again, that creates that revenue generating machine. I know that because I was in media for 20 years.
00:11:29
Speaker
what it takes to get people
Media Critique and Fundraising Success
00:11:30
Speaker
on people's websites, because that's how they make money these days. It's just fact. So anyway, I can't think of anything else other than that. And if it's not the case that they're just trying to get people's attention to click on the websites, then it's like they literally have no connection, no feel of the pulse in the nation of what's going on. And that to me is just,
00:11:55
Speaker
It's just mind blowing. I don't know. It makes me go, what the heck is going on out there? Well, there's that. And of course, the thing that you can measure in hard, cold facts this week was the second quarter fundraising results.
00:12:17
Speaker
And, of course, I had a little bit involved in that as the chief fundraiser or director of national fundraising for Pierre, as I am. And so, you know, my bias should be proclaimed there. But these are hard numbers. This isn't just speculation or what have you. So, Jodi, you know that in the second quarter, Pierre raised over $4 million. It's actually $5.3 million because the party was behind in, you know,
00:12:47
Speaker
publishing the checks or cashing the checks, but we raised over $5.3 million, $615,000 in one day, the last day of the second quarter. And more interestingly, Pierre Polyev had over 40,000 individual donors, which was nine times the number of donors that Jean Chiré had.
00:13:11
Speaker
Pierre raised over five million. Chiré was around a million and a half dollars raised. In fact, Pierre raised more money than all the other leadership candidates, including Patrick Brown, combined. And he has more individual donors than the other candidates combined. In fact, Pierre Poliev raised more money in the second quarter than the Liberal Party of Canada raised.
00:13:32
Speaker
because he raised 2.8 million and he raised over five. So those are facts. They're not contestable. And of course, the Liberals would say, well, the Conservative Party out fundraised the Liberal Party in the last two general elections, which is true. And of course, they did not form the government. But that's just one proof point out of many that something interesting is going on in Canadian politics right now. Yeah. And usually, I mean,
00:14:01
Speaker
Again, not always, but typically you can follow the money and normally the parties that are doing very well financially are usually in a better position, right? So, typically. Yeah. So, yeah. So, I mean, it'll be interesting to see how everything plays out as we get closer. I mean, look, we're just over a month away from the actual finish of the race. By the way, I heard... Is this accurate? I don't know. You might know.
00:14:30
Speaker
Are they planning on just starting to open the ballots the day before the announcement? Well, what they do immediately is the ballot is in a secrecy envelope and outside the secrecy envelope within another envelope is the photocopy of your driver's license or some other proof of who you are, right? Yeah. With a visual identity.
00:14:57
Speaker
And so they just double they double check that ahead of time first, but they don't start counting the ballots until after the deadline, which is what I don't know, September 6th or 7th or whatever it is. So it is just one or two days before September 10th or September 9th when they have to
00:15:17
Speaker
close everything off and then September 10th, he announced the results. Do you think they're going to be in a position to announce based on that ground? They swear up and down, they will be. What do I know? I think their point has been made to the leadership organizing committee that we don't want to do this at two in the morning again like we typically do, which shows how incompetent the process is and everybody
00:15:39
Speaker
you know, the new leader doesn't get an audience in front of the public or that, you know, poor Aaron O'Toole started his leadership, uh, speaking, you know, in a COVID environment at three in the morning because the process was so, so long and slow. So hopefully they've fixed that part of it anyway. Yeah. Well, it'll be, uh,
00:16:00
Speaker
It'll be interesting, but, um, fingers crossed that everything works out the way that they want it to work out. So moving on to a totally different topic. Last week on the program, we discussed challenging humble and Fred, uh, who have a very successful, uh, wildly popular, uh, radio slash podcast. Just podcast now, no radio. Can't call it radio. Like they get pissed off if I say radio. Well, they're just not on terrestrial radio.
00:16:29
Speaker
No, but do they do you know if they get mad if I call it a radio show? No, no, I don't think they get mad. I was kind of trying to be like, oh, they don't like it when I call the radio. The radio hosts don't like it when we talk about their radio show. So anyway, yes, Humble and Fred.
00:16:47
Speaker
We challenged them to a golf event. Uh, by the way, did you see my email response to that? Yes, I saw that. So we'll see if they respond. Um, but anyway, you do that because you, you, you listened to the program today. I was going to say you were on the show, uh, recently. And so you kind of kept the talk going about the challenge. So I guess my question is where do we stand when it comes to this golf challenge?
00:17:12
Speaker
Well, they've accepted it. But Howard, he's been playing in so many competitive golf tournaments this summer. I mean, he's on a circuit. I guess there is a golf circuit for amateur golfers, and he's gotten trophies and prizes. Yeah, okay. Look, I know Howard's a good golfer, but let's be serious here. He plays in the senior events.
00:17:38
Speaker
Yes, he's a great golfer, but let's call a spade a spade. He plays from T's that are like hundreds of yards where I play from in front of me, right? So I mean, that's like, that's, let's be honest here. I think he plays from the whites. I don't know. Sure. Like plenty of other seniors.
00:17:58
Speaker
So his, his proposal was that we would, but he wanted to keep it kind of friendly and social. So we were going to play best ball, I think is what he suggested. Right.
00:18:09
Speaker
Yeah. Well, we'll see what the four, I'm all for the format. I think if it's handicap, that's fine, but yeah. Yeah. Whatever works. I just, I just want to be out with the guys and, and Fred, Fred Patterson, I think is a similar golfer to me as, as I understand it. And you're, you're a lot closer to Howard and, uh, there was some talk on the humble and Fred show today. Uh, uh, he, Howard made it an assumption that perhaps he's somewhat better than you. And I listened to the show. He made it sound like he was far superior.
00:18:38
Speaker
and fred put him in his place he literally said he literally said well we're gonna have to handicap it otherwise it's gonna be him i guess all three of us like he's gonna carry us all on his back yeah exactly response again knowing that he's a senior and there's nothing wrong with that we all get old we'll be there sometime i get you you might be a senior are you considered a senior
00:18:58
Speaker
Well, I don't, I, I don't, I feel like there's no question. I'm not 65. Humble competes as a senior. That's what it is. I do not. Obviously I'm much younger than a senior, but I can't play from those same tees because I'll just be having to hit like a pitching wedge all day while he's hitting driver. And I don't think that's appropriate. So, okay. Okay. Well, this is fair for him. Yeah. I mean, it would, I'd cream them, but.
00:19:25
Speaker
But the context of the show today, we talked about the golf thing and I was on their program, but we were also talking about Pierre Poliev and Fred Patterson. Interestingly, Humble Howard watched the wood and beam video that Pierre put out and was strangely enamored with it and impressed by it.
00:19:47
Speaker
Uh, Fred was having none of it and hated the, the use of the phrase freedom, uh, that Pierre Poliev uses. And so you put in the email that it was going to be the freedom. Freedom challenge. Yeah.
00:20:02
Speaker
You're just like poking at the barrel. I don't know if they'll respond. Maybe that'll cause them to not want to play. I don't know. It could be the death knell, but I think they'll take it in good in good spirits. And it's great that we can do this podcaster to podcaster. And they they are the kind of the deans of the podcast world in Canada. They've had a podcast, a proper podcast, a real podcast for over 10 years, which is just incredible. And yeah, I mean, they're
00:20:31
Speaker
They're a big success and I think it'd be kind of fun to spend the afternoon and maybe a little bit of a social event afterwards with them.
Listener Engagement and Podcast Popularity
00:20:39
Speaker
Yeah, so we'll have to see how.
00:20:42
Speaker
How that all turns out, I was going to say. We'll tell our podcast audience about it as well, of course. Yes, of course. Oh, I know what I was going to say. I was going to give a shout out to Mike Stiff, who's a big listener, a big supporter of the program. Saw him today at a local restaurant, so it was good to catch up with Mike. We have to do coffee soon, but he loves the program and he was very happy because, yeah, you were there. Remember we had that event with Pierre like earlier this year?
00:21:11
Speaker
Yeah, in March. At Carlos House. Yeah. And do you remember that one? Yeah, of course. Yeah. Yeah, of course you do. It was around St. Patty's Day. Yeah, yeah, sorry. It wasn't around. It was St. Patty's Day. Yeah, it was. But anyway, so at Carlos House,
00:21:29
Speaker
Mike Stiff was there and they sang him a happy birthday because it was his birthday. So I think he has a video or a clip of that, but he was telling me how he lets people know that the future prime minister of Canada sang him happy birthday. Oh, there you go. That's a keeper.
00:21:45
Speaker
Yeah, it's a keeper. So we'll see, uh, we'll see how that all turns out. But again, thanks to Mike and, uh, his continued listener ship. Yeah. And you know, folks don't forget to rate us and, uh, to, uh, to send us some comments. We appreciate that and we appreciate all the support and our producers keep telling us that these banter episodes are very popular, right, Jody? They're off the charts. I don't get it, but people love it. People love listening to you and me talk to each other and.
00:22:15
Speaker
Who would have thunk it? We're still, we're still on the charts in Ghana, by the way. Did you see that? I saw that. I saw that. You know, it's funny, I've said this before, I'm not, I'm not sure how much stock I put into those charts because, because I looked at, so I looked at, I have one today for my, I have one for my golf show. Cause I used to do my radio slash podcast golf show for a long time. Anyway, I haven't done an episode in over a year and it's still charting in Canada golf.
00:22:47
Speaker
Either my show is wildly popular, which by the way, totally possible, or it's simply not accurate on that chart. But yes, we are still charting in Ghana, but we can't get any traction in Canada. Oh, come on. That's not true. I know. We have lots of traction in Canada. That's true. Hey, I wanted to ask you about this.
Liv Golf vs. PGA Tour
00:23:07
Speaker
There was this live golf tournament last weekend. Is that right?
00:23:10
Speaker
Yes. Well, there's been many of them. Many of them. And Greg Norman was being interviewed and I thought he made a good point because everybody's getting on this live golf thing about how it's Saudi money and how can people accept Saudi money. And then he made the point that the PGA has like, they've got 26 sponsors that do $40 billion worth of business in Saudi. Oh, yeah.
00:23:35
Speaker
So, you know, it's getting a little bit hypocritical. That's been my argument from day one. I mean, look at the event. Not only that aspect. What about events in China? What about, you know, there's numerous other examples of countries and areas and places that don't have a great track record on human rights if you're going to use that argument. Right. That they still continue to negotiate and
00:24:02
Speaker
leverage their product into their country. So, uh, when I say product, I mean the PGA tour events, actually more than that, like events from various, like, you know, whether it's, uh, used to be the European tour. Now it's, I think it's the DP tour, uh, LPGA, you know, PGA, all that stuff. So the, at the end of the day, I've said from day one, the live golf argument. And I think you're going to see this more and more that there's going to be more guys and girls that go over.
00:24:29
Speaker
And because I do think women will at some point, and I think that they will embrace women in this, is that the PGA Tour will have no choice but to work with those individuals other than simply shunning them. Because they are independent contractors. There's nothing wrong with choosing where you're going to go play and having multiple areas to play.
00:24:51
Speaker
I don't get the whole thing about it. But there must be some dissatisfaction with the PGA. I mean, you don't walk away from the PGA if you're totally satisfied. No, I mean, the one main argument is obviously the money. Right. But let's be clear, a lot of these guys, they don't need to do it for the money, to be honest. They don't. Dustin Johnson does need to go over for the money.
00:25:18
Speaker
The second thing is the schedule set up. There are three-day tournaments instead of four-day tournaments. It's the pace of play, the length of play. You're playing a shotgun format as opposed to just simply staggered tee off. There's a lot of different things from a lifestyle that Pat Perez, I think, what was his comment there? He said, I've been on the road longer than Matt Wolf's been alive.
00:25:49
Speaker
You know, it's time for me to want it to slow down. Yeah. So now he has an option. He didn't have an option before you had to compete in these events in order to get yourself in a position where you could continue to keep your card. So you had no choice, right? Unless you were like Tiger Woods and you could just go out and win at will. So.
00:26:06
Speaker
It's I don't have an issue with it. And I think the ones there, I think they just don't like competition and that happens in business sometimes. Well, guess what? That's that's it. Sometimes it forces you to get better. Well, look at the NHL when the World Hockey Association was created. You're too young to remember this, Jody, but I remember it. And they they brought in Bobby Hall and Gordie Howe and some of these other great stars and paid them a decent wage, which they didn't get in the NHL.
00:26:34
Speaker
Until the WHA was created, so it created change in the NHL as well. Yeah, no, it's a, you're very right. Actually I had a conversation about that very thing with some guys on the weekend when I was up at Rockycrest. Yes.
00:26:51
Speaker
It was a, it was a good time. Well, one of our through marriage, one of my relatives, I guess you could say through marriage is Bruce Simmons who began club link. So we were up there with him, but we had a, we had a family event. And so it was good to chat with him. Well, he knows he, he, he knows a lot of those hockey players through his club link connections and they're good friends of his. So we had some good chats like Paul. I didn't realize this Paul Henderson is like 80 years old now.
00:27:15
Speaker
Yeah, Paul. Yeah. He's a great guy. And I know Bruce knows him. So, yeah. Yeah. No, it's a long time ago, 1972. Yeah. Yeah. It's a long time ago now. 50 years. It's crazy. Yeah. 50 years ago. Yeah. So, I guess we'll have a big 50 year celebration coming up in September for Team Canada 72. Yeah.
00:27:39
Speaker
There
Toronto Blue Jays and Stadium Plans
00:27:40
Speaker
you go. Anyway, that's, uh, I think that's all I got for you right now. I don't know if you want to share any other girls of wisdom. No, that's fantastic. I was at the Jay's game last week, enjoyed that. Uh, so, uh, got my, I got my fill of, uh, the, uh, that great franchise and, uh, hopefully they'll keep winning. And, uh, yeah, they're looking good. Yeah. Did you see the renderings for the, uh, changes they want to make?
00:28:06
Speaker
Yeah, I did. What were your thoughts? I like the bullpen elevated. Elevated bullpen that looks really cool. That's cool. The only thing that I saw in reaction to, which made me laugh, was people saying, great to see the renovations. Why don't you renovate it and call it the Skydome again?
00:28:28
Speaker
Yeah. So people just were just going after the name, the Rogers center saying, you know, it's no, no, it's the Skydome. Come on folks. It's the Skydome. Yeah. And do you remember they should bring back the, the mascot? Remember the mascot? Well, you mean not, not Ace, the other one? No, the four, wasn't the first one, the turtle named Domer. Oh, Christmas. I don't remember that. I thought you were talking about BJ birdie.
00:28:51
Speaker
No, no. I'm talking about for the Skydome. They had a hold on a second here. I'm going to Google it. I don't even remember that mascot here. Yeah. There's the picture of it. Oh my God. The Skydome mascot. And they want Boomer back. Oh my. So it's like, what's the story here? Flashback Friday. This is from a blog, a Toronto Blue Jays blog, bluejhunter.com. But anyway, whether they want to admit it or not, a lot of people have sauce, blah, blah, blah, blah. Um,
00:29:19
Speaker
Domer was already featured on a flashback Friday, but considering this week marked, this was in 26, 2014. 2014 was the 25th anniversary of the Skydome and Domer is kind of the forgotten one associated with the Toronto Blue Jays, namely because he wasn't a Blue Jays mascot per se, but a mascot for the Skydome itself. Bizarre. Which is quite the rarity in professional sports. That's crazy. I was at the first game of the Blue Jays in, in the Skydome. I was there.
00:29:50
Speaker
Yeah. It's a long time ago, man. There's a video online. I'm going to watch it when we go off here of Domer arriving when they opened the Skydome. That's a good little bit of trivia, Jody. Well done. All right. Well, thanks again. What's that? No, and that's great. Yeah.
