Max Fawcett is one of Dean's favorite writers. He's the Lead Columnist at Canada's National Observer. He's a left-leaning academic from Calgary, Alberta, who writes about climate change, so he's brave...We started by discussing how having a different news cycle and ecosystem in Alberta is possible. What news do Albertans and people in western provinces consume and what they don't, and how does it radicalize people into pure hatred?Brett Wilson was a good man before the pandemic. He still might be, but we talked about the decline of our old friend, billionaire philanthropist, into the conspiracy nether regions.

Dean and Max give some backstory and reasoning behind Brett's decline.#TuckerCarlson is coming to #Alberta this month, and Max has some thoughts while Dean has some questions.
