The Strategists Live! - 506 4 St SW - Calgary - Nov 12, 2025
An atheist, a Muslim and a Catholic walk into Knox United Church...
No joke - it’s The Strategists Live!
Join all your favourite strategists, and Stephen Carter, for a two-act podcasting extravaganza featuring special guests, gratuitous pageantry, and a complete lack of decorum.
Act 1 - The accountability episode for Stephen Carter and The Calgary Party.
Act 2 - Recording of The Strategists Live with a very special guest and maybe Hogan.
If you've never attended The Strategists Live, you have to attend this one. Contractually. It's in our podcast terms and conditions. Humour, sarcasm, and a total disrespect for our audience all come standard with your incredibly reasonable ticket price.
VIP Experience: Because you’re better than everyone else.Enjoy a catered meet-and-greet with the full Strategists crew, get your very own Zain Velji for Leader lawn sign, and bask in the glory of priority seating which, trust us, is a big fucking deal in this church.
