I'm not exactly what you'd call a nationalist.
But at the current time, no, that's not feasible. - Feeling Glucky?
I'm a healthy mix kinda guy. Basically Liberals and Conservatives are both here to stay. Common ground needs to be made. Immigration is essential to Canada but we just don't have the ability to take every forsaken soul on the planet. We shouldn't pretend otherwise just to get the feels going.
I don't look for points of view, I look for facts.
As for podcasts: the daily, this American life, radio lab, both of Dan Carlin's shows, BBC documentary, on the media, and pod save America/the world. - Feeling Glucky?
On a quick look, most seem to be in the Progressive category .... but will reserve the right to alter my opinion later
The Daily ........ AKA The New York Times.... The Liberal "Bible"
on the media ........... AKA NPR, tends to be Liberal
this American life ............ AKA NPR Liberal too.
radio lab ......... A New York City based public radio station...... sounds Liberal, but will have to listen to it first
Dan Carlin .......... Sounds interesting, will have to check his show(s) out too.
BBC documentary ............ Have listened to many BBC podcasts, while traveling, so assume this is also a good podcast.
pod save America/the world ........... From what I've quickly seen, in reviews, it's "Unashamedly left-leaning"
I will bookmark these, and download some podcasts.
Thanks
As much as I doubt this is true, it really doesn't matter. If your mind is made up, you're not watching that stuff to challenge yourself, you're watching to validate your opinion of the other side. - Feeling Glucky?
I've been telling you for years, that I've always sought out other POVs ...... I remember watching Glenn Beck when he was on CNN, and also when he went to FNC.......
I watch so called "comedy shows" such as SNL, Bill Maher, John Oliver, The Daily show and sometimes, when I'm up late, the 11:35 late night shows on NBC, ABC and CBS ....... which are ALL 99.9% Progressive and anti Conservative.
And yes, there are times I agree with the issues discussed, or being made fun of, and there are times I don't.
I don't care if you believe me or not ........ it's not that important.

Pod save etc is unabashadly biased, with no attempt to hide it. But they're also very connected, and have a lot of inside knowledge, having worked in the white house. So lots of info to dig through.
The rest will definitely appear left leaning to a died in the wool conservative, in the same way wikipedia is left leaning, and chemistry, physics, biology, mathematics, etc. are all left leaning.

We're more equipped than the majority of countries, and it's not really a big risk in any case.
