On this week's episode of Real Life, the guys discussed hockey parenting, Amazon Prime, the Glen Sather interview, and much more.The guys kicked off this week's episode of Real Life with a conversation about Patrick Stewart passing away, and how a lot of kids these days wouldn't even know him from his major role on Star Trek compared to being Charles Xavier on X-Men. After two seconds on Captain Pickard, the boys pivoted immediately Wanye's first foray into being a hockey parent. As you'll hear, Wanye Jr. has taken to the sport like gangbusters, and it was fascinating to hear how being a new hockey dad has affected him.Changing gears, the guys looked at a judge in Milwaukee declaring that it would be acceptable to wear Brewers gear in court from now until the end of their World Series parade. That led the boys to wonder what Edmonton might be like if the Oilers are able to win a Stanley Cup. Would the city shut down? How long for? Nobody knows for sure, but what everyone agreed on is that the city will be a madhouse. That led to a discussion about last night's Battle of Alberta on Amazon, and how the games on Prime can fine but just different enough to feel weird.The guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with random collection of topics, starting with a look at the Glen Sather interview from the intermission, and whether players should be involved in team decision making. They also discussed the in-feed ads that Amazon has during the game, and how it's wild that you can order things right from your TV while you're watching a hockey game. Finally, the guys wrapped up the Thursday show with a round of Chalmer's winter prep for your home.

Changing gears, the guys looked at the Real Life Fantasy Football League, and how Baggedmilk is apparently ruining the sanctity of the league. Yet, as you'll hear, Baggedmilk is 5-1-0 in the league despite never checking his lineups, which is good for a first place tie. Is BM actually ruining the league or should he get credit for drafting well in the first place? Sticking with sports, the guys spent a few minutes talking about the Timeless Ticket controversy in Milwaukee after the Brewers seemingly changed the rules for how those lifetime passes were used. The guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with random collection of topics, starting with a look at Leon Draisaitl being sassy interviews.

Finally, the podcast wrapped with a run of Beefs of the Week that ranged from Sens fans vs. Brady Tkachuk to Joe Buck and Troy Aikman.

Baggedmilk and Wanye were back with another episode of Realer Life to talk all things Oilers, tech, and whatever else is going on.

From there, the guys spoke about Monday night games being put behind a paywall, and how the NHL seems hell bent on making it as hard as possible to watch.Changing gears, Wanye wanted to talk about the Gavin McKenna ad with Rogers, and whether the league will ever clamp down on players doing deals, especially with rights holders.

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded and edited, and it's ready to help you wrap up the week with another dose of nonsense and shenanigans. Today's podcast had a skeleton crew with only Tyler, Baggedmilk, and Eli, but that didn't stop the fellas from having a good time anyway. The guys kicked off this week's episode of Real Life with a recap of the Oilers' season opener and how great it was to be back at Rogers Place despite the way the game ended. From the construction vests on everyone's seat to the line combos to Tristan Jarry blowing it between the pipes, talking about an Oilers game that mattered was a lot of fun. Needless to say, arguing about the Oilers and having the team ruin your day just kinda felt like home. Changing gears, the guys walked through the Oilers injury woes plaguing the team early this season after it was announced that Zach Hyman will be sidelined for the next two weeks. Despite playing in the season opener on Tuesday, Hyman apparently hurt himself in the final pre-season game of the year, which had everyone wondering why he played against Vancouver. Yet, even with his upper-body injury, Hyman was on the ice during overtime. So, what's the real story there? Only the Hockey Gords know for sure. Finally, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with news that Tyler's cousin is one of the astronauts en route to the International Space Station.
