Nation Real Life

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you wrap up your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed Facebook Marketplace, ice makers, and more.The guys started the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation with Chalmers about why he hasn't been on the podcast for the last few weeks. As it turns out, moving the studio from upstairs back to the primary office was a major sticking point for Chalmers because it raised the barrier to entry for him to have a podcast cocktail. Somehow, talking about the studio move led to a conversation about buying an industrial ice maker for your residence. Too much? Good living?Changing gears, the boys spoke about buying and selling items on Facebook Marketplace. While Baggedmilk and Chalmers have never moved any units on Facebook, producer Eli walked the boys through how he's currently selling his car on the platform. Trying to help Eli move his car, the guys started working through the details on his vehicle to see if the fellas can drum up more clicks heading to his car ad. Finally, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with a story from Wanye about when he and Jay got in a car accident on the QE2 back in the day. Thankfully, the boys were all okay despite the severity of the accident, but the story was jarring to hear for the first time. Chalmers also talked about his weekend at the Pigeon Lake Music Festival, and how it was a wonderful night of nostalgia and music. 

Monday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you kick off your workweek. On today's podcast, the rag tag crew of Wanye, Liam, Eli and Woz came together to talk about the best Edmonton festivals, the worlds largest everything, movie knowledge and 4 seconds of Oilers talk.Kicking off the Monday episode of the show Eli talked about his favourite 4 days of the entire summer (which is really saying something after we went to the cup final again this year) the Edmonton Folk Festival! Wanye and Eli were blown away by the roots on Saturday and quickly transitioned into discussing their other favourite Edmonton Festivals.Did you know that Edmonton has the world's biggest Milk Jug? Neither did any of us, but apparently Edmonton has a whole lineup of world's largest objects...From there the fellas talked about he best coming of age movies, and who the "Actor of the summer" is for this year. Pedro pascal may be running away with the yearly title.This episode is all over the place. We hope you enjoy us keeping it real on Real Life.

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you wrap up your workweek. On today's podcast, Tyler is away on his honeymoon (not with Leon) so the B team of Wanye, Liam and Eli celebrated Eli's birthday, Discussed irrelevant music knowledge, and weighed in on who they thought should be in the top 100 Oilers.Kicking off the podcast The boys discussed Eli's birthday plans of kicking back and listening to some music with friends at folk fest. His one wish was for a dry weekend which was then promptly followed by a downpour of rain out the window.From there, Wanye called Drake a liar after finding out that Drake does not have more number one hits than The Beatles. His heart was broken, he never thought Drake would lie to him.Moving along, Liam and Eli shared their love for movies and Eli's movie money saving technique that he has now put Liam on to. Wrapping up the podcast, Liam brought up the top 100 Oilers of all time list, and had the boys wigh in on where they believe Leon Draisaitl should rank in this very very important list.

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you wrap up your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed Tyler's wedding, hall passes, social media algorithms, and more.The guys started the Thursday episode of Real Life with a look at Tyler's wedding that's happening this weekend, and how this will be the last show he does for another two weeks. As you'll hear, despite his wedding being in only two days, Tyler still has plenty of things to do before the big day. That led to a discussion about the scratch tickets Tyler will be giving out to all attendees, and how Baggedmilk claims he wouldn't give the couple a cut if he wins big.Changing gears, Chalmers wanted to talk about Tyler's hole-in-one challenge. Chalmers has been playing a ton of golf lately, and he's very concerned about Yaremchuk's ability to achieve his goal based on an exhaustive list of variables. From the weather to fatigue to frustration, there is a list of items that need to be checked off if he has any chance of draining one. Somehow, talking about golf led to a discussion about social media algorithms not making any sense. Even when you don't think you're interested in things, sometimes the timeline serves up some wild stuff that locks you in. Finally, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with a discussion about K-Days and how Chalmers was concerned about sending his kids on their own, given some of the mayhem you see on social media. Thankfully, the boys had a great time and an uneventful day, but having social media often showing the worst of us leads to these difficult decisions. SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

Monday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you kick off your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed minor annoyances that ruin your day, Tyler's wedding games, Erik Sabrowski's success in Cleveland, and anything else that came about.The guys started the Monday episode of Real Life with Tyler venting about his trip to A&W and not having ketchup included in his order. As you'll hear, our boy is very passionate about his fries, and not having the requested ketchup included in the bag was enough to ruin his afternoon. Too much? Probably, but Tyler's annoyance did lead to another round of talking about the Coldplay concert incident.Changing gears, Tyler then spoke about the putting green he built over the weekend, and how wedding guests will use it to earn more drink tickets. With drinks only $2 each, the idea of doubling your number of drink tickets seems unnecessary, but that doesn't mean everyone won't still have a good time anyway. Sticking with the wedding theme, the guys spent a few minutes discussing how the team will be congregating in Italy for Leon Draisaitl's wedding, and how everyone who is already there looks so relaxed and colour-coordinated ahead of the big day.Finally, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with a discussion about baseball economics and how it's wild that league is able to hold daytime games and have thousands of people show up to watch. Talking about baseball led the guys to discuss how long it will be until friend of the show Erik Sabrowski is able to sign a big contract with the Cleveland Guardians.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you wrap up your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed old Nation Gear designs, reality TV, Eli on the Ferris wheel, AI-generated content, and more.The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a discussion about Nation Gear and whether Wanye and Baggedmilk have kept all of their old articles of clothing. After walking through some of the old designs, the conversation turned to how many hats everyone has and whether they wear them to death. Changing gears, Wanye wanted to talk about Reality TV and a very special episode of Hoarders that lives rent-free in his mind. That led the guys to wonder if there is anything in their lives they love so much that could turn into an unreasonable obsession. As you'll hear, everyone on the podcast is pretty boring apart from Wanye trying to adopt an all-day coffee routine that he heard a billionaire does daily.From there, Eli talked about his time on the Ferris wheel at K-Days, after spending over 20+ hours there with Chris Sheetz as he pushed to set the world record for the most time cruising around. After spending so much time spinning around, Eli had a bunch of funny stories from his time cruising around for the record attempt. That said, Eli also broke the news that not every record attempt is what we think it is. Finally, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with a recap of the AI content Wanye made about Tyler over the last few weeks, and how we're only allowed to use the images he made while Tyler is away on his honeymoon. Needless to say, the boys were having fun with an array of random topics that left Yaremchuk invariably uncomfortable.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

Monday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you kick off your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed Happy Gilmore 2 coming out this week, Chalmers' favourite podcasts, new hip hop, and anything else that came about.The guys kicked off the Monday podcast with yet another discussion about the CEO who got busted at the Coldplay concert, and how the Internet just won't let the story die. Speaking of not letting things die, the guys then shifted the conversation to Happy Gilmore 2. With the movie slated to hit Netflix this week, the guys wondered how good this movie will be, or if Adam Sandler would have been better off leaving Happy Gilmore alone.Changing gears, Chalmers wanted to talk about podcasts. After finding a Lonely Island podcast where they discuss their best digital shorts of all time, the guys wondered how long it will be before the sporting world follows suit. The point being that there is a real void in the sports space, and the opportunity to create this kind of evergreen content could be huge for whoever can pull it off. Could this be a task for the Nation to handle? Likely yes.Getting back to the Coldplay cheating scandal, the guys spoke about the memes surrounding the incident and how they've turned from being very fun to common pop culture in a snap. After having a night of ridiculous jokes hitting the Internet, it didn't take long for the mainstream to jump on board with including the Coldplay moment in their marketing. Put another, the jokes went from being funny to too cute in a real hurry.Finally, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with a discussion about Tyler's hole-in-one challenge after he went out to Cattail Crossing to get a look at what he's up against. From pin location to which club he should use, the boys walked through the details of the challenge as a means of trying to help Tyler complete the challenge. 

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you wrap up your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed Tyler's wedding booze budget, backpacking in parts unknown, flavoured Oreos, and more.The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a discussion about how much Tyler is spending on wedding booze, and what the approach will be for doling out drinks without being wasteful. Somehow, talking about Tyler's wedding led Wanye and Baggedmilk down the rabbit hole of bopping around Thailand and how alcohol is basically free compared to the prices we're used to paying.Changing gears, the guys looked at the viral Coldplay moment that took over the Internet this week, and how cheating on your missus in a public forum like that isn't the brightest idea. Seeing as the video of the couple's forbidden caress is all over the web, the guys came up with some ideas on how you can spend time with your mistress without getting caught. Of course, all of these tips and advice were just for show and the boys on the Real Life Podcast would never encourage such behaviour.Finally, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with a look ahead at the Oilersnation Open, and how the bidding has opened to play with Jay and Chalmers or Tyler and Pat Puff. While Tyler admitted that Jay and Chalmers are better golfers, the guys wondered what kind of cheating would be necessary for the boys to avenge last year's loss. Either way, the ONO is almost sold out once again, and waiting around to enter a team will burn you for real. SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

Monday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you kick off your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed Isaac Howard's future with the Oilers, construction issues in the city, and anything else that came about.The guys kicked off the Monday podcast with a discussion about construction in the city after Chalmers was late for the show because he was stuck in traffic. While being trapped at 1:30 PM on a Monday seems unlikely, it did lead to an interesting conversation about how navigating the city is almost impossible at this point. Will the construction be done by the end of summer? Unlikely. Changing topics, the guys discussed some of the changes the Oilers have made over the last week, including the trade for Isaac Howard and the swapping out of a handful of coaches. Starting with the Ice Man, the guys wanted to know how excited everyone is allowed to get about a hotshot prospect who has yet to play even a shift of NHL hockey. Despite winning the Hobey Baker Trophy, there is concern that he got the job done in his draft +2 season, which is unlike some of the winners who came before him.From there, the guys recapped Baggedmilk's weekend in Seattle and Chalmers' dislike of the new Mission Impossible movie because the villain wasn't evil enough. Talking about movies and TV led the guys to discuss the first week of Big Brother, even though Chalmers was the only one who had watched the first couple of episodes. If you're one of the listeners who hates when the boys talk BB, then this is your warning that the Big Brother talk will be kicking off shortly. Finally, the guys confirmed a location and date for Tyler's hole-in-one challenge. Thanks to the folks at Cattail Crossing, Tyler will be teeing off on August 18th to see if he's able to get the job done. While Tyler remains confident that he can get the job done, the conversation turned to the logistical side of the challenge and how it's all going to work so people at home can join in on the action. SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.
