In Part 1 of Episode 28, Spirited Kenny talks about what it was like to watch the antics at the CWE 50 Man Rumble to Remember last Sunday, and to see Marty compete in the main event.
“If you would have said a year ago that I would be at a church on a Sunday night with 200 people chanting your name…?”
Kenny, who was enlisted as a temporary house announcer, tells his impressions of the undercard match-ups, the athletic efforts and characters of CWE wrestlers, the knowledgable fans who packed the Holy Eucharist Hall in EK, and how the Rumble is a “sprint and a marathon mixed together.”
Marty tells what it was like to go nose to nose with champions like Hotshot Danny Duggan in the ring, and the fear he had when the CWE hardcore champion Mike Mission came after him with violent intentions. They also laud headliner Davey Boy Smith Jr., a truly elite athlete hailing from the Hart Family of Calgary. He is the most approachable superstar in professional wrestling, with charisma would make him a headliner in another realm- politics.

29:20 Part 2 – Marty tells what stories are coming up this week in TheJ.ca, Canada’s national online Jewish newspaper. It appears that in Ottawa, you can’t turn around without bumping into a Jew-hater who has been invited to a government event or received gov’t funding.
36:00 The Manitoba Clinic has been in the red since it expanded in 2018. Now it’s $8M in the hole with 52,000 sq. ft. of unused space. Kenny was unamused by how they gouged patients before seeking bankruptcy protection. Their business plan was like adding cabs for Xmas without having drivers to put behind the wheel. We have a few ideas about how to put the extra space to good use. Hear the insight about the Clinic from an insider about the mismanagement of our health care system.
45:00 More health care failures – hear a WFP letter to the editor about Veterans Affairs officials promoting assisted suicide instead of taking care of our veterans in need. The therapeutic state medicalizing suicide as a government cost-cutting measure is truly disgusting.
52:00 A review of Gallop Polls since 1993 revealed how far and fast trust in newspapers and TV news has crashed. We talk about some of the whys, pivoting to a Fake News report in the Free Press about a death after a 2 car collision on Route 90 that involved a person who was on the road. The circumstances were twisted to invent a ‘cars are dangerous’ media narrative involving hit and runs, but this isn’t the same as recent incidents on actual streets with actual sidewalks. We also review photos of the area that hint how a person could have been drawn to mistakenly walk towards that section of the road – strictly speculation on our part, but a possibility.
1:09:30 We had scant details but there was a police shooting on Portage involving a stopped driver, and there was a stolen car takedown on Main Street- we reviewed what was known at airtime.
1:13:30 Police allege that Jeremy Skibicki is a serial killer. There’s at least 4 evidently marginalized women he murdered – is he Winnipeg’s Pickton? Would a revamped missing persons reporting system have helped?We review the allegations, what we know about the victims, and discuss whether it’s logical for activists to tout him as a representation of Canadian society, as opposed to what he appears to be – a Neo-Nazi pathological nut.
