The episode kicks off with a hilarious callback to last week’s “trade” of Arya, as the guys dive into a discussion about athletes who were cut from their leagues—only to claw their way back in.
From there, it’s onto the headlines:
👩⚖️ A surprising PR win from Gwyneth Paltrow and Astronomers Canada,
🎾 A wave of athlete no-shows at the Canadian National Bank Open,
🗝️ And Olivia Chow handing The Weeknd the Key to the City—sparking Luke’s passionate take on what mayors should be making headlines for, and a heated moment on Drake's “betrayal.”
That launches the crew into a deeper convo about Drake's evolving legacy, his UK pivot, and whether “the 6ix” is still home.
The episode wraps with a high-level look at consumerism—how much choice we really have—and sets up next week’s deeper dive into the system behind it all.
🧠 Wisdom of the Day:
“Just because you can buy it, doesn’t mean you’re in control.”
