San Grewal and Rahim Mohamed discuss Robyn Urback's opinion piece in the Globe and Mail, titled, “Like a bad ex, Donald Trump is accidentally making Canada become its best self”. Indeed, national pride seems to be at an all-time high, but is it warranted? After all, hate crimes are on the rise, two Jewish bakeries were vandalized last weekend, and a group of white supremacists just threw a "family-friendly festival” called Bigotfest in North Bay.

LGBTQ Rights Under Fire Worldwide: Pride Bans, Political Vetoes and Violence | This Gay Week LGBTQ rights are advancing in some parts of the world—but this week's headlines reveal a dangerous global backlash. On this episode of This Gay Week, Karel examines new reporting about the LGBTQ community in wartime Ukraine, a Romanian city's refusal to authorize a Pride march, and condemnation of Indonesia's decision to classify the “spread of LGBTQ culture” as a national security threat. In Poland, the president has vetoed legislation intended to recognize same-sex couples. In Senegal, the daughter of a prominent anti-LGBTQ advocate has reportedly been arrested on drug and “lesbianism” charges amid an intensifying crackdown. Cape Verde, meanwhile, offers a more hopeful story as one of Africa's most LGBTQ-friendly countries—even as activists warn that legal protections have not eliminated discrimination and violence. Back in the United States, a Florida man received seven years after shooting and partially paralyzing his LGBTQ neighbor. In another frightening incident, police killed an armed man accused of opening fire outside a gay dive bar. These stories span continents, but they raise the same urgent questions: Are governments protecting LGBTQ people—or turning their identities into political targets? Why is Pride still treated as a threat? And what does genuine equality require beyond laws and public promises? Stories discussed: LGBTQ life in Ukraine during the first half of 2026 Man sentenced for shooting and paralyzing LGBTQ neighbor Romanian city resists authorizing LGBTQ Pride march ASEAN organization condemns Indonesia's LGBTQ “security threat” label Daughter of Senegalese anti-LGBTQ advocate arrested Cape Verde's LGBTQ progress amid challenges across Africa Polish president vetoes bills recognizing same-sex couples Police kill man accused of firing on gay dive bar Support The Karel Cast at Patreon.com/reallykarel.

Danielle Smith announces a $13 billion Meta data centre in Sturgeon County, Alberta, set to be the largest in Canada.In contrast to Carney's federal A.I. strategy, which promised clean, sovereign, and ethical A.I., Smith refers to the Meta project as a “digital refinery,” fuelled by a natural gas plant that will be built to power it. Instead of digital sovereignty, is Canada going to end up being a branch-plant, resource economy at the service of Big Tech?

You might not be super familiar with the name Corus Entertainment, but you definitely know their work: Global News, Teletoon, YTV, Treehouse, Showcase etc. Since 1987 Corus has dominated Canadian media across TV and radio, but just last month (June 2026) they reported a $36.5-million loss in the third quarter! With yet another Canadian legacy media company, Corus Entertainment, at risk of being taken over by a private company, we're lamenting the state of ownership across Canadian media, and what it means for the future of bingeable true crime. Disclosure: At one point, host San Grewal refers to the $500 million deal that the government reached with Google through the Online News Act. Canadaland does receive money through this payout.

LIVE From Ukraine: LGBTQ Rights Are Under Attack Worldwide | This Gay Week What happens when you discuss LGBTQ rights while ballistic missiles are falling nearby? This week on This Gay Week, Scott Jacobsen joins me live from Ukraine to examine the biggest LGBTQ stories from around the world—including the realities of living in a war zone while continuing to fight for equality. This week's stories include: • Russia's crackdown on LGBTQ people reaches absurd new levels, with even SpongeBob SquarePants caught in the Kremlin's culture war. • A Russian bar owner and two employees are arrested simply for allowing LGBTQ people to gather. • Ukrainian LGBTQ soldiers risk their lives defending their country, only to return home still fighting for equal rights. • Bulgaria holds a government-supported “Family March” on the same day as Pride, raising new questions about LGBTQ equality in Eastern Europe. • New setbacks for transgender rights in the United States spark concern over whether similar policies could spread around the world. These stories aren't isolated—they're part of a growing global struggle over equality, freedom, and human rights. Join us for thoughtful conversation, analysis, and perspectives you won't hear on most mainstream news programs.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down a major Supreme Court ruling giving Presidents broad authority to fire agency appointees, plus a separate ruling on the Federal Reserve and a surprising decision allowing late-arriving mail-in ballots to be counted. Bryan also tackles a growing panic on Wall Street as New York's wealthy realize they have no real plan to stop the rise of Communist Democrats in Gotham, and he gives his blunt take on why it is too late to reverse the trend. From there, Bryan covers new developments in Iran, including a Pentagon database failure now blamed for the deadly strike on a girls school during Operation Epic Fury, and a vigilante known as "Mexican Batman" taking justice into his own hands against cartel-linked criminals.

In this Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan unpacks the Socialist wave sweeping local and state races across the country, from a self-described Socialist winning the DC mayor's primary to roughly 250 elected Socialists nationwide, and explains why New York City is already flashing a warning light. Bryan digs into the early fallout in the Big Apple, where up to a quarter of tenants in some buildings have stopped paying rent after being promised free everything, and draws a sharp parallel to a Stanford study on medical debt forgiveness that found free help can backfire. He also covers the costs piling up under the Trump Iran peace deal, including the regime ramping up internal executions, a leaked intel assessment claiming Israel will try to tank the talks, and why he thinks the bigger story is the Deep State doing the leaking. Plus, a tough-on-crime MAGA-style candidate captures Colombia's presidency while the Left cries election rigging, a deadly European heatwave with a connection to suspected Leftist arsonists near Leadville, Colorado, and two Chinese nationals convicted of spying on a US carrier in South Korea while posing as graduate students.

Episode 139 welcomes Jet Perry into the Jungle — an artist stepping into his moment with both his music and his story on the table. Pulling up to talk about his journey, his creative process, and the release of his new album “From Stamford With Love,” Jet opens up about the grind behind the scenes, the realities of navigating the industry, and the personal situations that sometimes spill into the music — including the love triangle that's been stirring conversation around him. The Jungle does what it does best: letting the story unfold while still asking the questions nobody else will. The music conversation kicks things off with Baby Keem's “Casino,” which sparks debate about energy, production, and how newer artists keep pushing sonic boundaries. Dave East's “For the Love 2” brings the focus back to lyricism and consistency, especially when it comes to artists who carry the torch for that classic East Coast storytelling. Then Mozzy and EST Gee's “Not a Chance in Hell” adds a gritty contrast, leading into a discussion about street authenticity, collaboration chemistry, and whether pain music still hits harder than flex music. Once the culture talk begins, things heat up quickly. The situation involving T.I., King Harris, and 50 Cent becomes a full breakdown of generational clashes, public disrespect, and how family loyalty plays out when everything is happening online. News surrounding El Mencho being captured and reportedly dying sparks a conversation about how global crime figures become almost myth-like in the media. Then the potential Mayweather vs. Pacquiao 2026 fight announcement brings nostalgia and skepticism at the same time — is it legacy, business, or pure spectacle? And when Chrisean Rock announces she's dedicating her life to Christ, the room talks about redemption, public perception, and whether the internet really allows people to change. As always, the relationship segment brings the most unpredictable energy. The crew debates whether sexual chemistry is something natural that two people instantly have, or something that can be learned and developed over time. That leads into the age-old question: when you're single — or even moving messy — do people really prefer a sneaky link situation or a fully public relationship? The conversation then gets a little wild discussing safe words and boundaries during intimacy, showing how humor and honesty collide in the Jungle. Finally, the episode closes with a tough dilemma: if your ex was better in bed but your current partner is better for your future, which one actually matters more in the long run? Episode 139 blends music, culture, and real-life situations in the way only the Jungle can — raw, funny, and brutally honest.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan opens with three major crime stories, including a deadly shooting at a San Diego mosque with past ties to 9/11 figures, new FBI confirmation that an Austin terror attack was motivated by support for Iran's Islamist regime, and a Texas crime spree that reignites the debate over AI-powered Flock surveillance cameras. He also breaks down President Trump's new $1.7 billion fund for victims of the Biden-Harris administration, warning that while the compensation may be justified, Democrats could use the same precedent in the future to reward their own political supporters. Bryan then turns to Iran, where Trump is holding off on renewed bombing at the request of Arab leaders even as the naval blockade continues to choke off Tehran's oil revenue. Plus, Bryan covers rising diesel costs hitting school districts, reports that Cuba may be stockpiling attack drones with possible Iranian support, and growing tensions with European leaders in Germany, Austria, and the UK over immigration, Islamism, and America's role in the world. He closes with medical news from Japan on how plastic chemicals like BPA may harm male fertility, and how para-probiotics could one day help protect sperm health.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the latest redistricting battles in Virginia, Texas, and Florida, explaining why Republicans may be gaining critical momentum in the fight for control of the U.S. House and what Democrat rhetoric around "maximum warfare" reveals about the political climate heading into the midterms. He also examines the growing tension between President Trump and House Democrats following the recent assassination attempt, focusing on Hakeem Jeffries' refusal to walk back inflammatory comments and Bryan's broader argument that political violence is becoming increasingly normalized on the American Left. He ties the redistricting fight to a much larger battle over power, ideology, and the future direction of the country. Plus, Bryan covers President Trump's meeting with King Charles and the political theater surrounding Jeffrey Epstein questions, a dangerous new collapse unfolding in Mali involving Islamic militants allegedly armed through Biden-era policies, and major political shifts in Germany as voters push back against mass migration. He closes with fascinating medical updates on male infertility risks and new research showing how exercise, especially core movement, may literally help "wash" the brain and improve long-term brain health.
