About this episode
The episode features discussions on political experiences, cultural identity, and humorous anecdotes from the guests.
Welcome back to another edition of The Intellectuals! This week, Guido Grasso and Nick "Big Sexy" are joined by everyone's favorite Stampeder, Josh Shapiro, fresh from Calgary, and Sam Adamo, who shares some wild stories from his recent political campaign and comedy ventures. In this episode, the crew discusses: The mysterious absence of Adam and some "unclear" messages. Sam Adamo’s experience being "banned" and accused of being too controversial at a comedy club. A deep dive into the "mushroom head" janitor incident at the Leonardo da Vinci Center. The state of Canadian identity and the legacy of Don Cherry. A definitive "Top 5 and a Half" list of best Chinese meals (and where to find them). Whether it's discussing the nuances of Italian citizenship or the best place for $2 peanut butter noodles, this episode is packed with the signature humor and unfiltered takes you expect from Pantelis Comedy. We asked for the greatest minds of our time to start a podcast. They refused. So we settled for the complete opposite. ..
