Every week Beaverton editor-in-chief Luke Gordon Field assembles some of the country’s best comedians and writers to talk, mock and riff their way through the news of the week. Then he puts their knowledge to the test in a very important quiz where the winner gets absolutely nothing. Part panel show, part interview, the Beaverton Weekly Report is an hilarious look at what’s going on in the world around us. It’ll be just like watching CNN, only funnier and with fewer erectile dysfunction ads.
Beaverton editor-in-chief Luke Gordon Field is joined by stand-up comedian Nour Hadidi, improviser Diana Frances and Beaverton editor Aaron Hagey-Mackay to talk about the insanity of the past week. They dive right in on the Trump-Russia scandal (2:00), why the Conservative media will never report on Trump’s scandals (5:00), question who the fuck really won the B.C. election (10:00), wonder if anyone actually cares about the Aga Khan scandal (16:00), and debate whether Canada will ever stop comparing itself to America (20:00). Then the Approximately 10 Minute Long Quiz uses Star Wars to explain Donald Trump’s election.
