Wed Jul 28 - Raising Teens & Auto Industry 4.23

Which pose the greatest parenting challenge for fathers --teenaged sons or teenaged daughters? This week perplexed papa Humble Howard Glassman is out to prove to delirious dad Patrick McKenna that teenaged girls deliver more dilemmas. Next up we talk about the big three automakers, as hilarious Harry Doupe tries to convince Glen "That Canadian Guy" Foster (and his Oakville neighbours) that Canada has no biz being in the auto biz. As usual our comedians put the comedic pedal to the metal as they try to Ram home their points and Dodge their opponent's attacks like true Challengers. Wednesday at 11:30 on Radio One.

Sat Jul 24 - Tattoos & Dictatorships

This week we take on tattoos, as the totally-tattooed Aaron Berg tries to prove to ink-inclined comic Charles Demers that body art is leaving a black mark on our society. Up next, comedian Ron Vaudry tries to dictate the rules of engagement and prove to autocratic critic Don Kelly that when it comes to political systems, a dictatorship is a reasonable alternative. At The Debaters we believe in your democratic right to choose. So quit your "Stalin" and "Castro" your vote for The Debaters by tuning in Saturday at 1:00 PM on Radio One.

Wed Jul 21 - "N" Word & Pirates 4.03

Is it time to ban the "N" word? The Debaters are in Newfoundland this week as local celebs Shaun Majumder and Snook (Pete Soucy) go toe to toe to decide whether the term Newfie is an amiable appellation or malignant moniker. Next up, we're talking pirates as stand-up comics John Ki and Darren Frost rattle sabers and cross swords over whether the modern day variety should to be wiped off the map. Hey, Canada, can we interest you in a treasure trove of fact and funny? Just tune in to The Debaters, Wednesday at 11:30 am. You won't believe your "buccaneers."
