**Canada is Boring**

Canada is boring? Nope. Canada is unhinged.

Hosted by Rhys, a new Canadian with an outsider’s obsession for the country’s strangest stories, and Jesse, a proudly disengaged average Canadian, the show digs into the weirdest moments in Canadian history, politics, crime, culture, and folklore.

Part history show, part comedy podcast, part national identity crisis, Canada Is Boring is for anyone who likes their learning with jokes, their politics with chaos, and their Canadian facts deeply, deeply strange. The show has built a loyal audience by making Canadian stories feel surprising, accessible, and genuinely entertaining, earning recognition as Canada’s No. 1 Politics Podcast on Goodpods, breaking into the Top 5 Podcasts in Canada on Apple Podcasts, hitting No. 1 Trending on Spotify Canada, and reaching No. 3 in Canada for Comedy.

Only Rich Prime Ministers Sep 25, 2023

Show notes

It took the well connected, well established lawyer, Peter McKay, 3 years to clear his debt when he ran to be leader of the Conservative Party. If he struggled to pay the $1.7m, then it shows that only a select few will ever run Canada.

Prison Is Based On a 200 Year Old Bad Idea Sep 11, 2023

Show notes

When Eastern State opened more than 180 years ago, it changed the world. This was the world's first true “penitentiary,” a prison designed to inspire penitence, or true regret, in the hearts of prisoners. Canada looked south of the border and said yes please. Fast forward to today, our incarcerated citizens still live in the legacy of this weird idea.

Mr. Dressup: The Magic Of Make-Believe Sep 09, 2023

Show notes

Rhys has been hosting a podcast for AIFF, the Atlantic International Film Festival. Also Jesse is showing his short film there! So here is a little bonus content!

We thought you'd get a kick out of this interview:

On this episode we explore a film that the creators describe as a ‘warm hug’. This heartfelt documentary celebrates the life and work of Ernie Coombs, the iconic Canadian children’s television personality who encouraged generations of kids to be their best selves. The children's entertainer who created and starred in the long-running Canadian television series Mr. Dressup, documenting his career and its impact on Canadian culture and entertainment.

We interviewed the movie's producer, Mark Bishop.

Mark Bishop is co-founder and executive producer at Canada's leading production company, marblemedia. Over the last 20 years Mark, and his business partner Matthew Hornburg, have diversified marblemedia’s content slate into becoming one of the country's leading and most highly respected independent production, distribution, and digital media companies. In addition to their impressive slate of scripted and unscripted programming, marblemedia also runs its own successful YouTube channel, marbleKids, and owns Distribution360, a global distributor overseeing a robust catalogue of premium television content from around the world.

The 2023 Atlantic International Film Festival is just around the corner, and with it comes a new line-up of films across a fresh collection of streams. This podcast showcases the voices of filmmakers whose work will feature in the 2023 program, going deep behind the vision and motivation for each film.
