2024-09-2001 minRadio Free OrtonaHow Do You Decide Who to TrustIt's just Paddy and Steve today. Unfortunately Trent was unable to join us.
Today we're talking about what happens when 2 outlets that I follow and support financially end up at odds with each other.
Specifically, Daryl Cooper, who hosts the MartyrMade podcast, which I have recommended on this show, appeared on Tucker Carlson's X show. During that 2 hour plus appearance, he made some statements about some events in World War II that are contrary to the accepted history of those events.

LiterallyIn this, our second episode of the weekend, we talk about the recent attempted assassination of Donald Trump and it's wider repercussions. We ponder about whether the truth of the shooter's motivations will even matter as the story unfolds and evolves. Will the truth even be a part of what will eventually become the mainstream narrative of the event.

That was probably because Steve and Paddy kept feeding him a steady diet of crap from the wack-a-doodle left. Paddy and Steve try to make up for it by taking their own shots at Tucker and other ignoramus's on the new right, before the conversation diverts into why Trump is popular. Our final diversion has us looking past a defeat for Ukraine and what that could possibly mean for Europe going forward.

Then we somehow segway into the pitiable state of the Canadian military. Then we moved onto why the Laurentian elites want to keep western Canada down. We breeze through some cultural appropriation before ending with with and easy pass on how to solve the problems of First Nations in Canada. Something to piss off everyone in this episode. We hope you enjoy.

We conclude with a discussion about whether or not you can really trust experts. It's basically a clips show in one shot. Hope you enjoy.

Radio Free OrtonaGlossary Episode 2.1 Is The Political Spectrum UsefulHello everyone. It's been a longer hiatus than we'd have liked, but Radio Free Ortona is back with a continuation of our discussion on the utility of the conceptual models of the political spectrum. Paddy starts off by completely discarding our well thought out and not at all confusing 2 axis nautical model that we gifted the world with in our previous discussion. Instead we really try, and utterly fail, to get down to brass tacks on this issue. We hope you enjoy the episode.

We're hoping to get together and record another episode before Christmas, but we can make no guarantees. In our stead is another of our cynical attempts to feed the algorithm, in the form of an assemblage of our pre and post show conversations. Sorry for talking with our mouths full. Our moms taught us better.

As the title says, this is another glossary episode where we just try to figure out what we mean when we talk about the right or left wings of the political spectrum. In the process we invent an entirely new and not at all confusing nautical model of the political spectrum, in an attempt to separate the concepts from potentially inflammatory language. It was a tremendously interesting exercise for us, and we hope it's something that you will find useful as well.

First off, apologies for the length of time it took to get this episode out. And apologies for jumping right into it. Paddy walked into the room and started in on the topic before your intrepid producer had pushed the record button, so it starts mid sentence.
In this episode, we continue our discussion of why capitalism seems to be unpopular with young people these days. Steve puts on his tin foil hat and goes after central bankers. We pause to express our mutual admiration of The Clash...2022-10-242h 13Radio Free OrtonaThe Queen is dead. Is that why kids don't know what capitalism is?In this episode, we talk about the Queen, and what she means to us. How hard it is going to be to adapt referring to the King, when it's been the Queen for all ours and our parents lives. After that we move onto a meandering discussion of why kids these days don't like capitalism, despite it being responsible for their standard of living.
Here's a link to Katherine Mangu-Ward's TedTalk that we refer to in the episode. She explains in 11 minutes what we couldn't in over 2 hours.

This episode is an assemblage of clips from conversations we had before and after the actual podcast. Some of these conversations are preparatory to future episodes and some of them are completely unrelated to anything else. I hope you find them as interesting as I think they are. Because we're not specifically speaking for the podcast we're a lot more sweary and definitely NSFW. You've been warned. Also I'm not always as good as I should be at hitting record righ...2022-08-151h 18Radio Free OrtonaGun Control Episode 3. Have you hugged your rifle today?In this episode we try to conclude our series on gun control and it's effects. It went longer than any of us expected and as always is full of digression. Also it got a little more sweary than normal. Steve yells at Trent. Paddy names people he'd rather were Prime Minister in iambic pentameter. Trent expresses his disdain for Jordan Peterson's most frequent podcast guest.

Due to some time constraints we didn't get all the way through the material we wanted to cover, so there will be at least one more episode on this topic. Sorry for stringing you along like this. In this pod we back track a bit to cover why Paddy and I think that the Government in Canada is acting in bad faith with regards to gun control. Then we tried to move on to cover some of what we think are possible second and third order effects of gun control. We hope y...2022-07-281h 12Radio Free OrtonaGun Control Part 1Today we take our first crack at gun control.

Radio Free OrtonaIs Good Faith Dead?Today we take on Good Faith. The three of us certainly agree that there's a real lack of it in public discourse. The proper functioning of our western liberal democracies and indeed our societies, seem to depend on good faith to continue functioning in good order. What does the death of good faith mean for us going forward? Will we be able to function as free societies if good faith is lost completely? Please listen in as we fail to answer these and other questions about whether or not good faith is dead or just on life support.

Radio Free OrtonaWhat The Hell Is Wrong With Higher EducationWelcome to the inaugural episode of Radio Free Ortona. We're 3 people with some stuff in common and some stuff that gives us different perspectives, which is why there's 3 of us instead of 1 of us. We know that the sense making infrastructure is broken, and 3 middle aged bald assholes aren't going to fix it. But maybe we can, in our own small way, contribute to helping everyone try to make sense of the world. The binary nature of most mainstream narratives is woefully inadequate for understanding any issue. Our hope is to explore the issues of the day and discover their compl...2022-04-181h 47

Urban Warfare ProjectItalian Stalingrad: The Battle of OrtonaIn this episode, Canadian Army Major Jayson Geroux joins to discuss the 1943 Battle of Ortona. Sometimes called the “Italian Stalingrad,” the battle took place in the town of Ortona, on Italy's Adriatic coast, during World War II. Maj. Geroux walks listeners through the battle, which pitted a Canadian infantry brigade against German paratroopers, and highlights lessons from the fighting that should inform the way we think about urban warfare and the potential for peer conflict in dense urban terrain today.2021-05-1445 min

Bitvy slavné i neznáméOrtona (1943)Druhá světová válka a tažení v Itálii nepoutá v naší historii velkou pozornost. Proto jsem se rozhodl zaměřit na méně známou kapitolu této války. V dnešním díle se podíváme na 1. kanadskou pěší divizi a její těžký boj o přístavní město Ortona. Toto město v prosinci 1943 hájila část elitní 1. německé paradesantní divize a i kvůli houževnatosti německých obránců se boj proměnil v bitvu, která později obdržela jméno "miniaturní Stalingrad"2020-05-1017 min
