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.
Luke is joined by podcaster Todd Van Allen, writer Eric Turkienicz and Second Jen creator/star Amanda Joy. They discuss the question on everyone’s minds: who the fuck is Andrew Scheer (3:00)? But also: how great it feels to see Kellie Leitch lose so badly (6:00), missing Maxime Bernier’s dank memes (9:30), how the Liberals will deal with Andrew Scheer (15:00), the NDP/Green Party deal in B.C. (18:00), the potential Alberta-B.C. NDP feud (22:00) and Donald Trump being a sad little boy (26:00). Then the Approximately 10 Minute Long Quiz exposes how reality is but a mere construct, but in a fun way.
