Listen to the last episode:

To wrap up the first season of Hot Politics, host David McKie's guest is no other than Canada's National Observer's columnist and sister podcast Maxed Out's host, Max Fawcett.


Recent days have witnessed politicians recognizing partisanship. Former leader of the Conservative Party Erin O'Toole and former Conservative prime minister Brian Mulroney both delivered speeches about divisiveness and nastiness, particularly on social media.


Max joins David to discuss how the divide is not just hurting the public perception of politicians but democracy itself.
