First 90 secondsGreg Brown· Host0:00
Doug Ford has done nothing- Nope ... I'm dead serious, but fuck shit up, and then have to try and fix it. He figures out what people get upset about enough, and then he spends all his energy trying to backpedal.
Mitch Moffit· Host0:09
Controversial subjects with the facts can be tense. But we are AsapSCIENCE here to make things make sense. Today, we're talking about one of the most corrupt politicians in Canadian history, and how he's ruining Toronto, the province of Ontario, and how it relates to the wider sort of, like, conservative movement across the world. So even if you are one of our American listeners or from a different province, we feel like this will be super relevant- Yeah ... to the wider conversation of how, especially sort of like lower, not lower level politicians, but state politicians, and even, like, at the mayor level can sometimes get away with things that we're not seeing. So today, we're gonna be, like, going through- [laughs] ... the history of the premier of Ontario- Of Doug Ford [laughs] ... which is where we live. Um, and just, like, I just wanted to have it all laid out. For anyone who, you know, I'm sure a lot of people who listen to this pod already have these kind of feelings towards Doug Ford, but I think if you know people who are either on the fence or who voted conservative, and I feel like this will, this could be a useful podcast episode to sp- like, send to someone, 'cause the plan is to kinda go through all the scandals, all the sorta things that he's done to put it in perspective.
Greg Brown· Host1:17
Corruption.
Mitch Moffit· Host1:17
It's insanely corrupt.
Greg Brown· Host1:18
It's insane. Honestly, I was like, "Okay, I'm gonna go and, like, look at conservative websites. I'm gonna talk to my friends who work in the government and be like, 'Okay, what's the positives of his la...' He's been in office since 2018. Like, he's got to have done something positive.
