#4: The Scandalcast
The Sheaf Podcast
04/15/10 • -1 min
The Sheaf’s recent parody issue, featuring genital warts, fat jokes and two dildos on the cover, has raised the ire of Saskatchewan’s beloved conservative talk radio host John Gormley, who describes it as “boy-driven potty humour” and the Sheaf as an “anarcho-syndicalist collective.”
Of course, controversy and criticism are part of any campus newspaper’s operations and the adVerb is only one example. This week, we address John Gormley’s criticisms and talk about some other recent Sheaf controversies, as well as what role a newspaper plays in the campus community.
This week’s program features the Sheaf’s editor-in-chief Ashleigh Mattern as well as layout editor Matthew Stefanson and web editor Ishmael Daro.

#5: The Christmascast
The Sheaf Podcast
11/29/10 • -1 min
With November nearing its end, the Christmas season is finally upon us. But what does Christmas mean anymore? Is it still a religious holiday to reflect on the birth of Christ or have Wal-Mart and Coca-Cola completely secularized (and commercialized) it into a month-long shopping frenzy? Also, what the hell is wrong with the Dutch Santa Claus, and why does he own black slaves?
This week’s program features the Sheaf’s copy editor Greg Reese and web editor Ishmael Daro.
