About this episode

The episode discusses the origins of the term 'WOKE', potential social media bans for kids in Canada, political interactions with the Pope, and a bizarre claim from a senior official in the Trump administration.

WOKE - where the term originated and what it really meant before modern politics twisted it into a pretzel; is Canada going to ban social media for kids under 16, and if so, will it even work?; when politicians tell the Pope how to Pope; a man claims that a dead girlfriend made his car levitate, God sat on his bed to talk, Satan made him pour out his last drinking water on a long hot hike and more...is he receiving mental health counseling? No, he's a senior official in the Trump administration! That's this episode with Ed & Red!
