KJ gives us a fascinating—and a little sad—report from a recent road trip to Saskatchewan with “Little Red Warrior and His Lawyer” in which we find out that (a) that provincial government is indeed provincial, but that (b) they are willing to put their security detail in direct and evidently amusing contact with subject matter the government regards as alarming. It’s 1960 out there once again, folks. Still, we get past that and manage to give you yet another million-dollar idea, some Snappers, a health report and a satisfying review of a concert from the Guess Who. It’s waves on the shore all the way here, soothing and satisfying, so relax and join us for a little escape!

We felt that we are not having enough of an impact on your dreams, and so in this episode, along with Listener Mail and a brief visit from another famous actor, we bring you: Our Worst Natural Enemies. Now, not only do we remind you of all those desperate childhood phobias you spent years conquering, but we also let you know which of nature’s many denizens you really should have been concerned about. To offset this potentially unsettling conversation, we also try to shed some light on the Immaculate Conception, sort of a Who’s Who of the parents of Christianity—sort of. It’s a worthwhile listen for breaking out of those regular day to day thought trains you’ve been riding, so enjoy, and let us know where you end up!

Even by our Olympian standards for variety we cover a lot of ground in this episode, from surprising and useful info about cooking pots (of all things), to linocuts, to renewable energy, to theatre, to emails from faithful and persistent listeners, to famous Irish art… a simmering potpourri of opinion and amusement and information awaits. Be bold, and dive right in! Or be cautious and keep your hand on that pause button—all the choices are good ones with your favourite Dogs.
