SPECIAL EPISODE: With Humble & Fred on Buffalo, Trump, and the Border We Still Share

SPECIAL EPISODE: With Humble & Fred on Buffalo, Trump, and the Border We Still Share\Had a great time today on the Humble & Fred podcast with Howard Glassman and Fred Patterson — true legends of Canadian broadcasting whose voices helped define alternative radio culture across Southern Ontario and Western New York for decades.What’s remarkable about Humble & Fred is not just their longevity, but the way they evolved with the times. While so many radio personalities disappeared with the collapse of traditional media, they reinvented themselves early and built one of Canada’s most respected long-running independent podcasts — keeping a loyal audience through authenticity, curiosity, humor, and a genuine connection to the communities they talk about every day.One of the most interesting parts of our conversation was hearing their real affection for Buffalo and Western New York. Like so many Canadians in Southern Ontario, they grew up connected to this region — rooting for the Bills and Sabres, crossing the border for concerts, sports, shopping, and memories. Buffalo has always been part of the cultural fabric of Southern Ontario, and you can feel that in the way they talk about the city.We also talked about the complicated tension many Canadians feel right now: loving Buffalo, loving the people of Western New York, still rooting for the teams and the culture here — while at the same time feeling genuinely disturbed and conflicted by the politics of Donald Trump and the direction of American politics. It made for a really honest and thoughtful conversation about the border region we all share.Really grateful they had me on. It was a fantastic conversation.Here’s the full appearance:#HumbleAndFred #Buffalo #BillsMafia #Sabres #WesternNewYork #SouthernOntario #Canada #Podcast #Politics #Trump #CrossBorder #CFNY #Media #NateMcMurray
