    March Madness, Hypothetical Trade Scenarios, and Beer League Etiquette

    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 March Madness kicking off, hypothetical trade scenarios for Darnell Nurse, beer league shenanigans, the Oilers' resurgence, and more. The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about sodas, noting that some social media accounts seem to glamorize binge-drinking cans of pop. While the guys all enjoy a carbonated beverage from time to time, no one can understand how anyone can drink more than a couple. Talking about sodas led the guys to discuss supplement stacking and how these "life hacks" seem to be much more prevalent. Changing gears, the conversation turned to Sudarshan Yellamaraju, the professional golfer out of Winnipeg who has forced his way onto the scene with pure relentlessness. As you'll hear, his story of turning pro is anything but easy, making it one worth following over the next weeks, months, and years. One of the best parts of golf is that it's a solo sport, and stories like Yellamaraju's make the journey that much more inspiring. Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast with the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with some hypothetical trade scenarios between Tyler and Jay that would have Darnell Nurse going to Detroit in the offseason. As expected, the back-and-forth went about as well as you'd expect. Shifting topics once again, the boys walked through a rumble Chalmers' beer league game, and whether the scenario merited that kind of shenanigans.  Hosted on Acast.

    Oilers disaster in Anaheim, Tristan Jarry, and Canada vs. USA

    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 the Wayne Gretzky locker-room snub rumour, the Oilers' disastrous effort in Anaheim, Tristan Jarry's struggles, Tyler's hypotheticals, and more. The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about the Olympic hockey final and a rumour that came out this morning saying Wayne Gretzky was not allowed in the room for a pre-game speech. Given that the rumour started on Barn Burner, it's been interesting to see how much noise came out of Mike Commodore's comments on the show. While the rumour has been shot down by Hockey Canada, social media has continued to run with the story. Changing gears, the conversation turned to Tyler's list of "fun" hypothetical scenarios that weren't really all that fun. Unfortunately, those hypotheticals didn't do much to lift the mood in the room, as everyone was still notably annoyed by how the Oilers are playing right now. From undoing the Skinner-for-Jarry trade or adjusting current Oilers contracts to free up cap dollars, Tyler offered a few this-or-that scenarios that were as sad as they were tricky to parse. Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast with the Thursday episode of Real Life, running through topics, starting with staying away from social media in the days after the gold medal game, rivalries growing the game, the 2028 World Cup vs. a Summit Series-style head-to-head, and beefs of the week. As you'll hear and likely expect, this week's episode of Real Life covered a lot of ground and topics that were all over the map. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Connor McDavid's Team Canada debut, and strange news from the games

    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 the Oilers' disaster, the Milan-Cortina Games, scandals at the games, beefs of the week, and more. The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about the Winter Games in Milan and how it's wild that these cities have to build all kinds of infrastructure for a three-week period. Somehow, talking about the Olympics led the boys to discuss Connor McDavid winning the Scholastic Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons when he was in Erie. Eventually, the fellas got around to McDavid's debut with Team Canada, and how No. 97 was shot out of a cannon for the first game. Changing gears, the conversation turned to sports that you won't see in the Winter or Summer Games, including the new sport where two giant men run into each other at full speed. As you'll hear, the boys clearly love the Winter Games and were not shy about sharing their admiration for these athletes. Sticking with the Milan Games, the guys ran through some of the wildest headlines so far and ranked them by their general absurdity. Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast with the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with beefs of the week, Leon Draisaitl's spectacular debut, copyright laws for the games, and how athletes are forced to do commercials just to afford their participation. Even though it was just Tyler, Baggedmilk, and Wanye, the boys covered a lot of ground in the Thursday episode of Real Life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Oilers at the trade deadline, Jay's trip to Paris, and the Internet doesn't care

    It's Thursday afternoon, which means a new episode of Real Life is recorded and ready to discuss the world around us. On today's podcast, the guys discuss their trade deadline expectations, Jay's vacation to Paris, the drama surrounding the weight loss challenge, and much more. The guys started the Thursday episode of the podcast with a conversation about the NHL trade deadline and how no one really knows what to expect from the league's annual swap n' shop. With plenty of trades already happening in the days and weeks leading up to the deadline, it will be interesting to see how much movement actually happens on the last trading day. Will the Oilers be active, or will it disappoint the fanbase? Changing gears, the guys discussed Jay's vacation to Paris and how he did not waste an opportunity to enjoy all the delicious food he encountered. Chalmers called him out for his unsanctioned weigh-in before he left and said his win shouldn't count as a result. Everyone weighed in for an official marker, and Jay gained six pounds while away. So what does that mean for the weight loss challenge? No one can be sure. Sticking with the food talk, Chalmers went on a classic rant about restaurant menus in other languages because he constantly has to Google what everything is. As you'll hear, he was incredibly spicy about his trip to an Italian restaurant, and it was hilarious to hear him melt down about menus at fancy establishments. No one else in the room seems to have the same issue, but that didn't stop Chalmers from voicing his opinion on the issue. Finally, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with an array of topics, including social media viral moments, NFL free agency, and what everyone expects the Oilers to do at the trade deadline. As always, the hour flew by as the guys ripped through their topics and wrapped up just as quickly because Tyler had to bail for a trade deadline show rehearsal. Hosted on Acast.

    Be careful with the ice out there, Evander Kane rumours, and Oilers at the trade deadline

    Monday afternoon means a fresh episode of the Real Life podcast is recorded, edited, and ready to kick off your week. On today's podcast, the guys discussed slippery sidewalks in Edmonton, what the Oilers might do at the trade deadline, the weigh-in shenanigans, and much more. Chalmers kicked off the Monday episode of Real Life with a story about falling on the ice after the melt in Edmonton has resulted in some of the slipperiest sidewalks you can imagine. As it turns out, Chalmers isn't the only one to wipe out lately, as Baggedmilk revealed that he also took a spill this past week while walking his dog. Needless to say, reminding people to be careful out there when you're walking around. Turning the podcast to the Oilers, Tyler quizzed Chalmers on how much he's been paying attention to the news ahead of the NHL trade deadline. As you likely suspected, Chalmers hasn't really been paying attention all that much, but did hear about the recent Evander Kane news about wanting to come back to prove he's still got it. Given the Oilers' cap limitations, this latest Kane news isn't likely to be overly popular around these parts. Changing gears, Chalmers brought Tyler up to date with the Real Life weight loss challenge shenanigans, and how the boys still don't feel as though they should pay him considering his winning weight was not at a sanctioned weigh-in. With Jay on his way back from France as the podcast was recording, it will be fascinating to hear his side of the story and whether he think his win is legitimate. Finally, the fellas wrapped up the Monday podcast with an array of topics, including wallet innovation, getting ID'd at restaurants, men's league showers, and whether anyone cares about St. Patricks Day. As always, the boys were all over the map to close out the show, which was as predictable as it was unpredictable. 💻 Website: https://oilersnation.com/  https://twitter.com/NationRealLife https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/  https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/ https://www.instagram.com/nationreallife/ https://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation  SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

    The weight loss challenge debate, Wayne Gretzky, and Chalmers' movie review

    It's Thursday afternoon, which means a brand new episode of the Real Life podcast is here to help us make sense of the world around us. The guys started off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about why Tyler still leaves his location on despite none of the other guys sharing theirs. Somehow, talking about Tyler being sick at home led to Chalmers going on an epic rant about Jay's win in the weight-loss challenge. As you'll hear, the way by which Jay revealed that he had lost 20 pounds over a full day before the sanctioned weigh-ins. Changing gears, Wanye told a story from one of his dreams, in which Tyler had a mini-version of himself after seeing him appear on CBC in an interview. That led to a discussion about the heat Wayne Gretzky is taking in Canada for his association with the US president. Regardless of your opinion on what's happening with this situation, there's little doubt that we are living in one of the wildest timelines imaginable. The conversation then moved into a run of conspiracy theories that revolved around fake news and A.I. that seem to grab hold on social media these days, and how damaging those situations can be. While it's fun to use A.I. to make funny images, videos, and whatever else is going on, there's also a very dark segment of users that are using these tools for harm and shenanigans. So what's the answer to the problem? Only time will tell. Finally, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with a second rant from Chalmers after his kids are at home because of P.D. days at their school, which seem to be a running concern in their household. The guys then finished off with some golf talk after the new season of Full Swing was loaded up to Netflix this past week, and how well the producers of that show have done to highlight the sport. 💻 Website: https://oilersnation.com/  https://twitter.com/NationRealLife https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/  https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/ https://www.instagram.com/nationreallife/ https://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation  SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

    Tyler's Uber adventure, a 4 Nations recap, and Chantal Kreviazuk

    Monday afternoon means another episode of the Real Life podcast is set and ready to kick off your week. On today's episode, the guys discussed Tyler's Uber issue, travel stories from Montreal and Boston, and whatever random topics came to mind as they were recording. The guys started the Monday episode of Real Life by discussing why Tyler and Baggedmilk were the only ones who showed up for the Monday podcast. After starting the show by wondering where everyone was, Jay and Wanye wandered into the studio after the recording had already started, which derailed the conversation but also made it better. Changing gears, Tyler told a story about getting scammed by an Uber in Montreal after pre-booking a ride to the airport. As you'll hear, this was one of the most confusing Uber situations ever. While the car was in motion on the way to the airport, the driver tried to hustle Tyler out of some cash instead of taking him where he needed to be for the pre-negotiated fare. No matter how you look at the situation, it seems like Tyler got ripped off in what can only be described as a very odd situation. From there, Tyler told a few stories about his time in Montreal and Boston, which he described as one of the coolest sports experiences he's had with The Nation Network so far. He talked about the Canada vs. USA final, driving to Boston through a snowstorm, and took listeners behind the scenes on what it was like to put on live shows from the event. If you thought it was going to be one of those situations where everything ran smoothly, you will be pleasantly surprised at how things tend to go sideways. Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast with an array of topics, including everyone's excitement for the Olympics, how great it was that Connor McDavid got his signature moment with Team Canada, and why Tyler needs to watch the movie Armageddon. As always, the Monday episode of Real Life was all over the map and wasn't able to stick on a single topic for very long.  💻 Website: https://oilersnation.com/  https://twitter.com/NationRealLife https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/  https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/ https://www.instagram.com/nationreallife/ https://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation  SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365.
