In this episode, the Sick Man returns with the shocking and explosive finale of the latest Fake Cop Trilogy. The Toucan Man is still on the loose and Fake Cop can’t find him. So he does something he hates more than anything: he gets introspective. So he’s going to do what he usually does: double down in the worst possible direction. Going deeper. Not into the streets, but into whatever the hell is going on inside his mind. Trying to track down the Toucan Man the only way left… by ...
In this episode, the Sick Man returns with part two of the shocking, explosive, new Fake Cop Trilogy. Will Fast Bobby return with information about the Toucan Man? No idea.

In this episode, the Sick Man talks about a story we all think we know; Pandora, the box, and the moment everything went wrong. But instead of telling it the usual way, he slows it down and looks at what actually happened in that moment. Not just what escaped … but what stayed behind, and why that matters. How does hope actually survive? From there, he moves into the modern world and the “boxes” we deal with every day - physical ones, social expectations, technology, even the ones we create ...
In this episode, the Sick Man talks about the ancient Greek concept of hubris; an excess of pride that distorts judgment and pushes individuals and systems beyond their limits; how certainty can override caution, and how ambition, when left unchecked, begins to reshape reality in ways that can’t be ignored. Using myth, literature, history, and personal experience, this episode looks at hubris as both a personal and collective force, something that appears whenever people or institutions begin...
In this episode, the Sick Man talks about the invisible choreography of modern life. Navigating bureaucracies has reached the level of an Olympic sport. Government agencies, banks, corporate offices, and customer service all insist you follow rules that change while you’re watching. Let’s explore the absurd perfection of these systems and what it means to try to stay human in a world that already assumes you’re not. This is Catch-22. Support the show Host: Brad Cartner Sh...
In this episode, the Sick Man steps onto the ice to talk about one of hockey’s strongest traditions: fighting. How it began. How it survived. Who does it. And why the sport that prides itself on speed and skill still makes room for a man whose job description includes punching people in the face. Along the way, he examines the culture that produced it, and the enduring legend of the “Polite Canadian.” Featuring real-life hockey enforcer Steve Hughes, who explains the mentality, du...
In this Very Special Episode, the Sick Man talks about the summer of 1987, and his very first job working for a printing factory in Toronto’s Financial District. Before there was ambition, before there was a crash, before there were podcasts recorded in basements, there was ink. Industrial ink. The perfume of capitalism. And there were cigarettes. Lots and lots of cigarettes. A coming of each story about paper, panic, and pretending. This is the summer of ‘87. Support the show Hos...
