Sleeping With The Elephant

Returning guest Eric Mahler joins the show to bring his Christmas cheer to the masses! On point for discussion this week is the fact that Trudeau is ok with 18 year olds buying legalized pot, Obama thinks the US should do something about that Russian hack issue, and finally bringing the show full circle: Trudeau helps Obama out with his Christmas card photo. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Two returning guests on the show unite to begin the healing. In our first post-election episode, Ryan, Loic, and Jimmy get together to discuss just what the hell happened. We also discuss what the hell might happen, and what's already started to happen in the US and Canada. Oh, and Joe Biden memes! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Eric Mahler of the Eric Everyday podcast returns to the show for a final reprieve before election night. While we avoid the T word as much as possible, we do remind our US friends to head out and VOTE. In the news we find out that Steven Seagal has infiltrated Russia and becomes a citizen, the Chicago Cubs have broken a 108 year dry spell with their world series win, and Dragons Den actor petitions stores to delay Christmas displays until after Remembrance Day. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jimmy The Shovel digs up some stories for us to cover on a new Sleeping With The Elephant! On the docket this week we have the RCMP questioning a woman that threw pumpkin seeds at the Prime Minister, Trump looks ahead to the first 100 days of the darkest timeline, Stephen Colbert takes a Canadian Citizenship test, and Trump decided to launch his own unbiased news network. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The return of Paul Swickard is here! Paul takes a break from An Hour of Sleep to chat about Trump and Clowns. Trump made some bold claims that Canadians hate their healthcare system, turns out it's a very small percentage that do. Trump did a bunch of other stupid things over the last month, so we go over those as well. Closing out the show with the theme of clowns, we take a look at the recent phenomenon that is dressing up as a creepy clown and scaring innocent people on city streets. Seriously…. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sleeping With The Elephant returns with an all Canadian cast yet again as Ryan is joined by new guest host Loic (@stoicloic on Twitter)! We talk about a whole range of topics starting off with a sandwich artist in Canada attempting to capture Trump to Jeb's new job as a cameo artist for award shows. In between we also take a look at the word “dicking” thanks to Colin Powell, ignoring the North, and Trump's secret plan to defeat ISIS revealed! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ryan is joined by the hosts of the Good, Bad, or Bull$#*! podcast: Beau, Crofton, and Mike. This week we cover a range of topics, but of course we start the podcast with a bit of bull. Trump is fairly OK with losing as it will net him a huge vacation, Conservatives use Milk cartons to find our Prime Minister, and a US Olympian is facing criticism for wearing a Canada hat. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week Scott Johnson guests on the show to chat about Pokemon GO, Canadian tall tales, and a whole bunch to do about Trump. Pokemon GO has folks getting into trouble, including a pair of Canadians that wandered into Montana while chasing the infamous Jigglypuff. A US realtor is capitalizing on the political climate but catering to sellers looking to move to Canada. Breaking news out of Randy Quaid today is not a surprise to anyone as he denounces Hilary and Bernie for Trump (his Twitter is a little NSFW, be warned). Finally, we close the show with the reality that Donald Trump is the official Republican Nominee. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Not since Nerdtacular 2015 has a show of this magnitude been crafted as Sleeping With The Elephant welcomes back Jules and Jocelyn. Although we're all out of apple pie whiskey. Jocelyn did us all a solid and watched Idiocracy before the show so we could comment on the writers reuniting to craft anti-Trump ads. Then the Canadians explain to Jules the most recent Canuck Controversy of #ElbowGate. Moving back to the Canadian news we have a story about MPs breaking into O' Canada after voting on a bill that would make the anthem gender neutral. Finally, we close the show off with an infographic that finally breaks down which Americans follow through on their threats to move to Canada. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on the show we have a representative from Maine, the Busy Zombie Lord himself, Lou Page! Lou brings along two stories for discussion: George Zimmerman selling gun used to kill Trayvon Martin and HBO's ‘Last Week Tonight' goes after Gov. LePage. Not to make the whole show crazy talk, Ryan brings along the story of Fort McMurray, focusing on arm chair Prime Ministering and the awesome support efforts by Canadians and people around the world.

With 2015 behind us, we take a look at what we thought made the year for Sleeping With The Elephant.

It’s a general holiday miracle! Sleeping With The Elephant returns with Star Wars talk at the top of the show.

Paul and Ryan return after dealing with a month and a half of scheduling conflicts. Funny enough, it works out that the last time a show was recorded it was just before Canadian Thanksgiving.

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving everyone! Ryan breaks from turkey prep to discuss the Canadian Federal Election update with Paul. Looks like the Liberals have pulled ahead and also want to legalize marijuana. As we move south we find that Randy Quaid has been arrested at the Vermont border and Ben Carson has had some weird attention lately. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In order to translate the only story we could find on the Canadian election we brought in Patrick (@NotPatrick) from France to let us know that Justin Trudeau keeps his enemies a little too close.
