In this episode of the Red Man Laughing podcast we have a sit down, featured chat with Colby Tootoosis. Colby has made social media & mainstream news this week as the young man that "flipped the flag during Grand Entry" at the contest powwow in Winnipeg, MB during Manito Ahbee. We talk about resurgence, decolonizing powwow & standing up for our young people. ​

In this episode of the Red Man Laughing Podcast we sit down with Christi Belcourt, a Metis visual artist with a deep respect for the  traditions and knowledge of her people.  The majority of her work explores and  celebrates the beauty of the natural world. We really wanted to talk with Christi about her incredible vision behind the "Walking With Our Sisters" moccassin vamp project which took North America by storm this past spring & summer.

The project is a a massive commemorative art installation comprised of 1,600+ moccasin vamps (tops) created and donated by hundreds of caring and concerned individuals to draw attention to this injustice. The large collaborative art piece will be made available to the public through selected galleries and locations. The work exists as a floor installation made up of beaded vamps arranged in a winding path formation on fabric and includes cedar boughs. Viewers remove their shoes to walk on a path of cloth alongside the vamps.

The project is set to open its first exhibition in Edmonton (Oct 2-14) at the Telus Atrium at the University of Alberta and it's booked to exhibit around North America through 2019. Yes. 2019. Six years from now.

Red Man Laughing - The Christi Belcourt Interview

In this episode of the Red Man Laughing Podcast we debut a new series that we'll feature throughout the season called "Stories From The Land." In the debut episode of Stories From The Land we hear from NWT Storyteller and Educator, Scott McQueen. He recounts a story about North America's biggest dog sled race. He takes us inside the traplines and onto Great Slave Lake and lets us into a world of dogs, toboggans AND snow...lots of snow.

So often we talk about the land, our connection to the land and our obligation to be caretakers for the land and I often wonder if people "get what we mean" about our connection to the land and just what that means. The Stories From The Land Series will deliver just that - stories from Indigenous Peoples on the land and what their connection is spiritually, physically and emotionally so as to share perspective on why it is we so often defend it from harm and destruction.

Early in January 2013, a meeting was called in Ottawa that could have changed the lives of Indigenous People in Canada forever. It didn't. The failures of #J11 continue to haunt me to this day.

In this episode of the Red Man Laughing Podcast we sit down with Anishinaabe MC & Hip Hop Artist Tall Paul. Based out of Minneapolis, MN, Tall Paul has been catching the attention of many in the Indigenous music community and is a mainstay in the Minneapolis Underground Hip Hop community. Tall Paul's music strikes a balance between the ol' school consciousness of original hip hop but it's also unapologetically forward looking as his lyrics are deeply personal and rooted in his reality as an Anishinaabe person living on the south side of Minneapolis.

Red Man Laughing - The Tall Paul Interview

In this episode of Red Man Laughing we sit down with Metis Lawyer, Educator, mother & ass kicker - Chelsea Vowel. From the Lac St. Anne Metis community in Alberta, Chelsea is based out of Montreal and is currently running a Cree Language Immersion program (http://sakihitowinlearning.ca/) and is the owner of the Apihtawikosisan website - an incredible tool for all things Indigenous in Canada. Chelsea's website was integral to the reeducation of the mainstream when it came to Indigenous Issues in Canada at the height of Idle No More (it still is integral, work with me here) and her work has been published by Indigenous and mainstream publications alike.

In this featured chat we talk about her website going from 300 hits a month to 100 000 hits in a day and what kind of crazy responsibility that was to take on and the blowback that came with it. We talk about language immersion, relearning our languages and the struggle that comes with that. We work through obstacles around Indigenous Feminism and why Settler Femisism tends to bump heads with women from our communities, AND, finally - we talk about raising kids in an Urban environment and the types of specific challenges that presents through our kids' educations and our own sense of responsibility to our children as parents in the Indigenous context.

In this episode of Ryan McMahon Gets Angry we get to hear Ryan make the connection between industrial parks, storage locker containers, bad breakfasts, warm milk, the death of the milkmen, the collapse of society, the survival of our ancestors, death by doorknob, automated checkouts & colonization. It gets weird, seriously.

In this episode of Ryan McMahon Gets Angry we get to hear Ryan's take on the "pajama pant" phenomenon taking over our society. As a poor kid growing up, Ryan figures there is no way in HELL he'd be caught in Sponge Bob or Simpson's pajama pants, though, Ryan's kinda old and kinda bitter - so - who knows.

In this episode of the Ryan McMahon Gets Angry Podcast Ryan turns his fury on "Leaf Blowers," the gas powered fan and hose for the laziest of the lazy men that absolutely refuse to rake their lawns.

CBC Radio One is pleased to present Red Man Laughing, a special hour of indigenous comedy, music and interviews hosted by stand up comic Ryan McMahon. After 3 successful seasons of the hit podcast, the shows format was tweaked & twisted into this 1 hour National comedy special!

In January 2014, Ryan invited a group of fellow aboriginal artists to join him onstage at the Capitol Theatre in Edmonton’s historic Fort Edmonton Park. The show was recorded over 2 sold out nights (honestly, we could have sold out for a week straight there was such a demand for tickets) at the historic theatre. The show aired during the 2014 National Aboriginal Day weekend.

Guests include champion hand-drum singer Fawn Wood, singer/songwriter Nick Sherman, author and film-maker Richard Van Camp, and Canada Reads winning author, Joseph Boyden.

In this conversation Nick and Ryan break down the making of Nick's new album, Knives & Wildrice, the process of documenting the journey of making the album through a podcast and what it was like to crowdfund & create this album with very little resources and the good graces of his friends and family.

Nick Sherman's new album, 'Knives & Wildrice', drops May 23rd, 2015.

The Dechinta Land & Medicine Stories podcast mini-series was recorded over a 3 day workshop period at Blatchford Lake in Chief Drygeese Territory at Dechinta Bush University in June 2015.

Students at Dechinta were asked to write, record, edit & produce an original story using the "Stories From The Land" guidelines to help inspire their creative direction. During 3, 4 hour sessions, the students were able to create personal narratives, design sound & create the audio story in their own unique way - no 2 stories in this series are the same.

The Dechinta Land & Medicine Stories is a special partnership between Dechinta Bush University, Indian & Cowboy & the Red Man Laughing Podcast.

There are alot of arseholes in the world. More and more, I'm beginning to believe the world's arsehole problem is being compounded by the fact that we can't spank or smack our kids (when warranted) anymore. Here's a story where a quick smack on the ass would have helped immensely. 

Ryan McMahon Gets Angry #1 - Kit Kats

Sometimes life on the road as a professional comedian just isn't what it's all cracked up to be. Too often people think it's a life of glamour and fame - it's not. Really, truly, honestly, it couldn't be farther from the truth - here's proof.

Ryan McMahon Gets Angry #2 - Gimme Buttah

Have you ever met someone that you really can't stand. I mean - REALLY cannot stand and for whatever reason their very existence makes you hate life. Ya? No? Well, Ryan McMahon has met that person - and he wants to tell you about it.

Ryan McMahon Gets Angry #3 - Hey Asshole, You're My Neighbour?

Johhny Depp & Jerry Bruckheimer are remaking "The Lone Ranger" and recently a still photo has hit the internet from an apparent "photo still" released by the studio. In 2012, is this story even relevant? Who controls how we're portrayed today? Is it now the time to take our image back from the mainstream and start representing ourselves, our Nations & our stories in a more honourable way? Yes, yes that time is now. 

Ryan McMahon Gets Angry #4 Johnny Depp - Not My Tonto

In this episode of Red Man Laughing I have a guest Co-Host for the very first time – I’m joined by Mr. Wab Kinew. Wab and I have been talking about creating/starting a new podcast together and we (along with our dear friend Lorenzo) have kicked around the idea for months. Last night (Mon. Dec.4 2012), when news from Ottawa started to roll in about the movement the Chiefs at the AFN Special Assembly made – we thought this would be the perfect chance to put our heads together and try something new.

Today on the show we feature THREE incredible leaders and we chat with them about the INCREDIBLE #IDLENOMORE movement we see happening in Indian Country today here in Canada. Featured on the show this week we have Chief Isadore Day (Serpent River First Nation), Tanya Kappo (one of the leaders & creators behind the #IdleNoMore community movement) & Dr. Pam Palmater (Mi’kmaq Lawyer, Ryerson University).

INTERVIEW TIMES

Chief Isadore Day Interview begins at 42.00.
