Radio Free Arthur S2E20: Take Me Out to the Poll Game ft. David King

Author: Arthur Newspaper February 28, 2025 Duration: 59:15

Kept you waiting, huh?

At long last RFA returns from a pre-recorded hiatus to send off the Ontario Provincial Election with an hour's worth of sketch comedy bits and serious political insight.

It's like CBC's "The House" with less Ian Hanomansing but the same amount of boomers mad at us.

Speaking of Anchormen, the girls are joined again this week by patented women's space invader David King, to discuss the misinformation pervading discussions of students' electoral eligibilty, as well as a supremely studpid scandal about where exactly Trent students will walk across the stage.
