A Uniquely “Canadian” Musical Story – The Ascot Royals
The Ascot Royals are a pretty cool Canadian story. Lead singer Jimmy Chauveau and older brother Ben (keyboardist) came to Canada from England. Tal Vaisman brought his guitar and his dreams from Israel. They joined a couple of Canadian born musicians, bassist Scott Page and drummer Sam Stark.. and now they’re making music that will make Canada proud.
Sony has signed The Ascot Royals and they are currently taking on another great Canadian story… WINTER. The crew came through Red Deer last week. Now the Royals are in Saskatchewan working their way back east. They’ll make more stops in Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, and all four maritime provinces.. spreading the sound and creating the story of the Ascot Royals.
I dare you to not like this song. Take a couple of minutes to hear New Skin… then you’re going to want to share this with some friends. No worries, we have a share button over there on the left.
Now that you’re heard New Skin you’ll be wanting to know more about The Ascot Royals… Gotcha covered. Here’s our interview with Jimmy and Ben Chauveau and Tal Vaisman.
And here’s a little side story about the history of The Ascot Royals. If it weren’t for a fraternity of musicians across the country, they would never have been able to record New Skin or their latest work The Best Is Yet To Come! Thieves made off with almost every piece of gear they owned and the band might have just packed it in.. but then.. Well here’s the story.

Disney scrambles as young men reject DEI-filled franchises

Quick Hit:
A new op-ed argues Disney’s progressive push has driven away the very audience its biggest franchises should naturally attract: young men. Writer Zachary Faria says the company is now scrambling to undo the damage caused by years of prioritizing “diversity, equity, and inclusion” over storytelling.
Key Details:
- Zachary Faria of the Washington Examiner writes that Disney has made its blockbuster franchises “toxic to young men” through DEI-driven changes.
- Faria cites examples across Marvel, Star Wars, and Indiana Jones where traditional heroes were replaced, demeaned, or sidelined in favor of “ideological propaganda.”
- He argues Disney has “no one to blame but itself” for alienating its male audience and is now considering original films to try to win them back.
Diving Deeper:
In a blistering critique published in the Washington Examiner, columnist Zachary Faria argues Disney’s embrace of progressive politics has caused the company to alienate one of its most natural audiences: young men between the ages of 13 and 28. “Disney’s progressive ideology has alienated young men. The company now recognizes that its own franchises are toxic to that audience,” Faria wrote.
Disney executives are reportedly brainstorming ways to bring young men back to theaters, despite owning some of the most male-oriented franchises in modern history. “You would think that this wouldn’t be very difficult: Disney owns Marvel, Star Wars, and Indiana Jones, among other franchises that should all naturally appeal to a younger, male audience,” Faria observed.
Instead, he says the company has used those franchises as vehicles for divisive politics. “Marvel went from being defined by Iron Man, Captain America, and Thor to being defined by mediocre Disney+ series mired in DEI propaganda,” Faria noted. He pointed specifically to the Iron Heart series, where “a young black girl (who is also a criminal) [becomes] the new Iron Man, as she dismisses her predecessor as being nothing more than a privileged rich man.”
The same pattern, he argues, can be seen in Lucasfilm and Indiana Jones. Harrison Ford’s iconic hero was supplanted by a female co-star “who the latest bomb of a film positions as morally superior to him.” Meanwhile, The Acolyte turned the Jedi into villains while portraying “the heroic lesbian space witch cult at the heart of the movie.”
For Faria, this strategy is backfiring. “With those brand names in its pocket, Disney should have been playing on easy mode when it came to winning over young male viewers. Instead, Disney has made those franchises so toxic that it is reportedly looking for original film concepts to win over young men,” he wrote. He added that it is now “easier to come up with a completely original story that will appeal to young men than it is to appeal to them with a Star Wars film.”
Faria concluded with a sharp comparison between the entertainment giant and the political left: “Disney, much like the Democratic Party, has embraced an ideology that belittles and ostracizes young men, and is now facing the reality that young men no longer want anything to do with its brand. Disney is trying to figure out how to win over the people it purposefully alienated over the last several years, and it has no one to blame but itself.”
