Show Notes

There is more to East Vancouver's beloved summertime Pacific National Exhibition Fair than mini-donuts.

There are cheezy ramen corn dogs. Dill pickle pizzas. And a candidate for the world's longest, flavoured french fries.

On this edition, theBreaker.news Podcast introduces you to the sounds of the purveyors of deep-fried chicken skin, rice burgers and an East Vancouver-brewed Mexican-style lager called NeFAIRious. Warning: You might drool on your device. Plus, get an audio tour of the featured exhibit, Game Changers, with PNE exhibit space manager Faizzal Fatehali.

Game Changers is all about the evolution of video games and it is free with fair admission at the Garden Auditorium. The 109th PNE Fair is open through Labour Day, Sept. 2.

Plus commentaries and headlines from the Pacific Northwest and Pacific Rim --- including highlights from the trailer for the upcoming drama based on the Meng Wanzhou/Huawei controversy, Claws of the Red Dragon. The executive producer is Steve Bannon, the man who helped Trump win the White House, and the film is slated for a September release. Just in time for Canada's federal election campaign.
