Rebel News Podcast

David Menzies and Andrew Chapados are in studio to host, providing an update on our coverage of the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland, where apparently freedom is seen as a bad thing and a zero-carbon society as a good thing. Back in Canada, Justin Trudeau is participating in one of his new pastimes: hiding from protesters.

Let's read a report underlying a new article from the CBC. It's not a serious report. It’s the Liberal party platform, re-written as a national security document. GUEST: Avi Yemini on the World Economic Forum in Davos.

In Episode No. 15 of Miss Understood, we react to Discovery+'s creepy new show called Generation Drag about “drag kids” and discuss the dangers of exposing kids to purely adult things. We also chat about healthy beauty standards in the wake of Jordan Peterson's controversial tweet about a recent Sports Illustrated cover featuring a plus-sized model.

Sheila Gunn Reid and Adam Soos are behind the mic after a long weekend, discussing our team's efforts to expose the elites at the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland, while back at home in Canada Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was heckled by Indigenous protesters in Kamloops, British Columbia.

Friend of the show Manny Montenegrino returns for a feature interview about the Conservative leadership race, the Freedom Convoy and Justin Trudeau's treatment of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.Special Guest: Manny Montenegrino.

Sheila Gunn Reid on the future of the United Conservative Party; Adam Soos on a major court victory for protesters in Alberta.

Rebel News is sending an all-star team of journalists from across the globe to Davos, Switzerland, to cover the World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting 2022. GUEST: Lord Conrad Black on the Conservative Party leadership race.

BlazeTV's resident cowboy Chad Prather (@WatchChad) returns to Andrew Says for some blunt truth and honesty. Chad and Andrew discuss the widely-talked about Sports Illustrated cover that features a rather non-athletic model, as well as the new United States Press Secretary who is being praised chiefly for her 'diversity'. Then, Prather explains his successful lawsuit against Facebook's censorious practices that saw him suspended just a week before he ran in a Texas election. The pair discuss CBC looking for trauma therapists for their journalists and ask, “Is being a journalist really that tough?!” On RebelNews+ exclusively, Prather gives his remarks on the 'Ultra MAGA' slogan that was rolled out by the Biden Administration after months of research by a left-wing firm.

Jason Kenney knew he was in trouble, but he never knew the true extent — he had too many flatterers, I think. GUEST: Mario Balaban on the Project Veritas Twitter leaks.

And predictably, the movie PANDAMNED, by independent European filmmaker Marijn Poels, was immediately censored by Big Tech. The YouTube trailer for the movie was banned for violating the platform's terms of service for blaspheming against the infallible advice of local health authorities. The trailer and the movie are, however, available in full on Rumble. For the past two years, the world population has been under the spell of the coronavirus. Emergency regimes have been established, civil liberties have been dismantled, surveillance programs were being installed and an unprecedented global vaccination program has been rolled out. In PANDAMNED, Poels asks “are we doing the right thing, or did we make a deal with the devil in exchange for a benefit?” Through comprehensive interviews with critical and often censored voices from various areas of expertise, PANDAMNED tries to tell the whole story, not just the official, government and Big Tech-approved version of reality. Marijn Poels joins me tonight to discuss why he made PANDAMNED and how the public can stop the power grab the coronavirus enabled.

GUEST HOST: DAVID MENZIES The other day, I was thinking about one of my all-time favourite films. It’s a bit sci-fi, and a whole lot of horror. I speak of the 1978 reboot of the 1956 film, Invasion of the Bodysnatchers. As the title implies, the film’s plot revolves around the replacement of people. When the alien lifeforms take over a person, they look exactly like their former human selves. I was reminiscing about this fantastic albeit frightening flick because lately I’ve been pondering: who is responsible for the body-snatching of Premier Doug Ford? GUEST: Avi Yemini

I don't know who amongst you watched the livestream last night, Sheila Gunn Reid and myself co-anchored a four hour broadcast built around the Ontario provincial election and their leaders' debate. GUEST: Sheila Gunn Reid on the upcoming UCP leadership review of Jason Kenney.

In Episode No. 14 of Miss Understood, we discuss why we believe the world is currently a dumpster fire. From medical advancements that may allow biological males to carry babies to climate activists applying for medically assisted suicide, things are getting pretty weird here on planet Earth. Plus, Teen Vogue is encouraging young people to practice civil disobedience without civility. Lord help us.

David Menzies and Tamara Ugolini host after they were on the scene covering last night's Ontario leaders' debate, providing their reactions to the one and only faceoff between candidates. Also on the docket for the day, the CBC is seeking to hire trauma therapists for their journalists.

I saw this out of the blue. No vote in Parliament, not even a debate. GUEST: Spencer Fernando on Pierre Poilievre's lead in the Conservative Party of Canada's leadership race.

Sheila Gunn Reid and Adam Soos start this week off with a look at a judge ordering Alberta Chief Medical Officer of Health Deena Hinshaw's confidential answers to some questions during court to be released, while Adam shares his experience covering the duelling pro-life/pro-choice protests in the province.

Sheila Gunn Reid joins to discuss how the green movement is no longer about environmentalism and is more about Marxism. Plus, Kian Simone, one of the producers behind an upcoming Rebel News docuseries, The Great Reset, pops in for a conversation about what the World Economic Forum and it's chairman, Klaus Schwab, has in store for the world.

A crowd of people yelled at NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh in Peterborough, Ont. this week, and now the police are investigating this incident like it's a major crime. GUEST: Ben Weingarten

The World Economic Forum's oligarchs are using the threat of climate change to increase their global power. And though the WEF claims to hold “moral and intellectual integrity is at the heart of everything it does”, many of the policies, and in particular, the ones related to greenhouse gas emissions reduction will result in untold human suffering, energy poverty and even death. The WEF laments the war in Ukraine as an inconvenient obstruction to a green energy transition and whines about the war causing an increase in carbon emissions. The WEF has “ambitious” initiatives to force the transportation, aviation and shipping industries to pursue net-zero emissions which will drive up the cost of consumer goods, travel and flights for the average person, leaving the skies and the seas only for the rich people to use. Climate change is a means to an end, and the goal is control. Joining me tonight to discuss the intersection of the WEF and the radical, anti-human agenda of the environmentalist movement is Michelle Stirling from Friends of Science.

What’s going on here? And why is Bill Gates behind so many of these projects? GUEST: Ontario Party leader Derek Sloan on his recent suspension from Twitter.

In Episode No. 13 of Miss Understood, we discuss the controversy surrounding Kim Kardashian wearing an iconic Marilyn Monroe dress to this year's Met Gala and analyze whether the criticisms are warranted. Plus, Roe v. Wade might be overturned, and the left is losing it — so we examine some of the worst takes we have seen from the pro-abortion lobby, recommend some alternative birth control methods, and do a deep dive into the morality of abortion.

David Menzies and Sheila Gunn Reid return to discuss one of our favourite subjects: an MP behaving badly in the House of Commons. Also on the board for today is a poll showing that a majority of Canadians support the federal government's decision to regulate the internet, and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis made an official "Victims of Communism Day" in the Sunshine State.

GUEST HOST: DAVID MENZIES Did you catch the Conservative leadership debate last night? If you didn’t, here’s the post-game summary: judging by applause, the clearcut winner was surely Pierre Poilievre; judging by boos, jeers, and even downright derisive laughter, the definite loser was Jean Charest. No surprise there, really. But there was also a candidate who lost the debate due to default given that he was a no-show: that would be sneaky Patrick Brown, Brampton’s full-time mayor and part-time Zamboni inspector. GUEST: National Post columnist Rupa Subramanya

Andrew Chapados and Dakota Christensen highlight the winners and losers of last night's Conservative Party leadership debate and look at the kickoff to the Ontario election.

GUEST HOST: Sheila Gunn Reid Rebel News has obtained an exclusive Heritage Department Access to information briefing note titled “Approaches for Online News Publisher Remuneration” which hints at never-ending media bailouts. “Does this do enough?” one bureaucrat wrote. GUEST: Franco Terrazzano from the Canadian Taxpayers Federation joins us to discuss the sneaky new raise for the unelected senate the Liberals have shoe-horned into the latest budget bill.

The environmentalist movement has been completely hijacked by the radical environmental left. Tom Harris from the International Climate Science Coalition Canada explains how this happened and why conservatives should stop this mission creep. Environmentalism is no longer about keeping nature clean and healthy, fighting particulates and cutting back on real pollution. Old fashioned conservationism has gone the way of tax grabs to change the weather. Plant food is now relabelled as carbon pollution. And conservatives are conceding all of this language and rebranding to the left without a fight. We often hear appeals from prominent politicians about Canadian oil being a lower carbon alternative than Venezuelan, but why is the notion that we should even care about carbon intensity even being conceded in the first place? Doesn't that just move the battleground closer to where we — as fossil fuel advocates — stand?

Yesterday was World Press Freedom Day. I noticed that most of the people talking about it were government. In fact, the media people don't really seem to care about freedom anymore — certainly not their own independence. I think they gave that up when they took Trudeau's bailout money. In fact, if anything, most of the mainstream media are positively hostile to the idea of press freedom. GUEST: Sheila Gunn Reid

Andrew Chapados and Lewis Brackpool host today's stream, as protests have broken out across the US following a leak from the Supreme Court, comedian Dave Chappelle was attacked on stage, and the EU continues to explore building its own armed forces.

It's not an abortion ban. I wonder how many people think there is one, or there will be, if this draft ruling is ever actually issued. GUEST: Civil liberties attorney Jenin Younes on the leaked draft.

In Episode No. 12 of Miss Understood, we cover a few topics such as Dylan, the trans-TikToker who is documenting their transition from male to female, Harry Styles and the alleged ambiguity around his sexuality, and the mob coming for Christian actor Chris Pratt (again). Plus, we discuss the unfortunate discovery that the COVID-19 vax may cause baldness — yikes!
