On today's podcast, the guys discussed some conspiracy theroies and timelines that will blow your mind, Drake's album release, and just a smidgen of hockey talk.The boys kicked off the podcast going down a wild conspiracy theory rabbit hole. This quickly snowballed into learning some very basic historical information that humbled us all.From there they explored the world of Drake's Iceman release. Was the album as good as it was hyped up to be? Or should it have just stayed frozen for a few more years?Wrapping up the pod, Wanye and special guest Liam went head to head in an intense game of 501! Who knows more Oilers history?

On today's podcast, the guys discussed the Kris Knoblauch firing, what comes next for the Edmonton Oilers, Tyler's mukbang idea, and much more.The guys kicked off the Monday episode of Real Life with a conversation about basically anything they could think of that did not involve the Edmonton Oilers. Whether it was Tyler's tiny tummy or Garrick Higgo showing up late to the PGA Championship, to the snack station at Nation HQ, the guys really avoided the big topic of the day for way longer than expected. Needless to say, the guys did a pretty good job of pushing the Oilers convo down the road.Finally, the boys spoke about the Oilers pulling the trigger on firing Kris Knoblauch early Thursday morning. Given that the news leaked a couple of days ago, no one was surprised when the axe finally fell, but that didn't stop the world from looking at the sequence of events and dunking on the team. Talking about Knoblauch being fired led to a conversation about the summer and what the Oilers need to do to turn the ship around.Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast on the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with some Family Feud talk, beefs of the week, and another game of 501 where Baggedmilk and Wanye defended their undefeated streak. Even with the big team news that came down today, it's always remarkable to hear the boys avoid topics like absolute professionals.

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded and edited, and it's ready to help you wrap up the week. On today's podcast, the guys discussed what comes next for the Edmonton Oilers, Evan Bouchard's Norris Trophy snub, the Leafs winning the NHL Draft Lottery, and much more.The guys kicked off the Monday episode of Real Life with a conversation about the latest round of drama in the Mike Vrabel and Diana Russini story and how TMZ just released another batch of photos and documents about their affair. Needless to say, the rabbit hole keeps getting deeper by the day, and it's going to be fascinating to see where this story ends up when the dust settles. With the Oilers out of the playoffs, the boys have a bunch more time to think about other things.Changing gears, the conversation turned to a bunch of movie talk. The boys really dove into the weeds on what they're watching these days and which movies can lure them back to rewatching, even if they've seen them a bunch of times. Even though the segment was meant to be only a few minutes, the boys ended up talking about movies and TV for much longer than anyone expected. Even though they acknowledged the segment was going on too long, it ended up running a few more minutes anyway. Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast on the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with the name rights for Rogers Place could potentially be wrapping up and whether any new companies would work their way in. Chalmers also shared the story of a WHL prospect who went 9th overall in the draft, and how it was such a cool moment for a young man he's known since childhood.

On today's podcast, the guys discussed the Oilers' playoff exit, the John Chayka announcement in Toronto, who Edmonton may need as a new head coach, and much more.The guys kicked off the Monday episode of Real Life with a conversation about the Toronto Maple Leafs hiring John Chayka as their new general manager, and specifically how Steven Simmons dunked on the team for this decision. As you'll hear in the clip, Simmons did not pull any punches with his questioning, and watching the interaction was pure theatre for fans of any other franchise. Needless to say, the start of the Chayka era kicked off with a bang.Changing gears, the conversation turned to the rumour that the ON staff is starting about Jon Cooper being the coach of the Edmonton Oilers. The problem, of course, is that Cooper still has time left on his contract and has not been fired by the Lightning, but that isn't stopping the staff from imagining what this partnership would look like. Sticking with the coaching conversation, the boys also discussed Bruce Cassidy as a very competent Plan B. Given that he also won a Stanley Cup, would it make sense for the Oilers to hire the former Vegas Golden Knight?Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast on the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with what needs to happen with the Oilers to bring more of a playoff effort during the regular season. Would a new coach help with that? How much would it help to bring in other players that can fill proper roles in the lineup? The guys also spoke about concert tickets being out of control, and how tours are being cancelled because of how tickets aren't moving.

With the attendance complaints out of the way, Tyler talked about getting into Game 5 after waiting in Ford Hall until right before puck drop. That also led Tyler to talk about how great the vibes were at Rogers Place on Tuesday and how it felt like the fanbase is finally getting into it.Changing gears, the conversation turned to fans who bring their babies to the Moss Pit, and how it seems like a strange choice to bring toddlers out to playoff parties. Given that none of the fellas who started the playoffs have children, it's pretty easy to talk about what parents should and shouldn't do with their kids. Needless to say, the advice may have come from the right place, but the boys were also interested to hear from parents who actually have to deal with these situations.Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast on the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with beer prices in the Moss Pit and the Fan Park. Given that beers are still $18 each, the boys wondered how kids are affording to be in there every night.
