Britainology: Canadology ft. Dan Boeckner and Riley Quinn

The Bottlemen (RIP) ride again - Dan and Riley talk about all things Canada with Milo, to try and get some distance to explain a number of things, not least of which, “why is Canada like that.”

The Victims of Communism Memorial is real? I always thought that was a bit.

Cannot believe how much Australia is just hot Canada with mining instead of petroleum 😬

I think Kenny Vs Spenny was Canadian Jackass

I (Riley) cannot believe I did not think of that

Having just spent a week in Orange County I can assure Dan that parts of the California Coast is as frightening as the inland areas. Same psychotic politics with real wealth.

Spokane mention 💀 But for real, the more time I spend in and around Spokane, the more I feel it’s kinda the pulse for a lot of the US. LGBTQ friendly? Kinda. Progressive? Not really, unless you’re downtown. Diverse? Against its own will.

I like that Milo's Quebec mec routine always includes a "tabarnak" because old people were telling me that was old fashioned when I was there last ca. 2006.

Is there any way to access the Bottlemen Patreon episodes?

Feel obliged to link the inimitable Donald Hughes explaining Canada's highly inappropriate number of political parties. https://youtube.com/watch?v=3ajMkYRUt34

Just wanted to echo what others have said: I miss The Bottlemen, and would relish their return.

RIP The Bottlemen. Sometimes I can still hear their voices.

This one is weird, like the 5th time they've talked about everything they talk about, zombie bottlemen

Love the Bottleman! Good to hear what happened to it after they just kinda stopped. I wish they still did episodes tbh, good leftwing podcasts about Canada are few and far between. Love to hear those boys talk about Canada in any capacity.

I'd love to know some other good option if you're willing to share!

Germans talk about Austrian politics the way Canadians talk about American politics.

I like the implications of this comparison.

It’s astounding how one Britain can create two identical massive landlord run resource economies who just slaughter the fuck out of any Indigenous people who dare exist

I think you're selling it short at 2, although I would suppose that Australia, New Zealand and South Africa are different enough to bear the distinction.

The next one you should cover Lexx the world’s best horny German/canadian space opera tv show

The episodes that covered environmental issues were some of the best things I’ve heard or read on the subject. Serious and approachable.

Captain Praxis · August 25, 2024

Surely Kevin O’Leary qualifies as a Canadian Guy of All Time. His utter irrelevance makes him even more so. And Danielle Smith who, before she became the current anti-Woke Alberta premier, contributed to such a dysfunctional atmosphere on the Calgary Board of Education that the Minister of Education had to disband the entire board, is surely the current Canadian Woman of All Time. Not to mention Jordan Peterson, although sadly he escaped containment.

I've not heard this one yet, just excited that Britainology has become The Bottlemen by other means.

I think what they do in Switzerland is they beat you to death if you don’t properly presort your recycling. (If you’re a sexual masochist, though, they’ll only beat the shit out of you like T. E. Lawrence, but they’ll let you live.)

MuchMusic had some dire 'veejays.' One, a nasal English guy called Kim Clarke Champniss passed into legend at the record store I worked at for his intro for the debut of Seattle gunge band Mudhoney's first video: "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN...MAHONEY!"
