Another Thursday has landed on the calendars and that means the boys from the Real Life Podcast are back with a brand new episode to help you get you through what’s left of your week. Today, the boys were talking about Jay's trip to Nashville, improving the atmosphere at Rogers Place, and a whole lot more. To kick off the Thursday episode of Real Life, the guys jumped in with a conversation about Jay's trip to Nashville and how it was a complete trainwreck despite the fact that he tried to get some work done while he was away. Whether it was his road trip to the Louisville Slugger factory or the bourbon distillery or his night at a Nashville Predators game, Jay had a hell of a week away and it was interesting to hear his thoughts on what he saw and whether we can bring those vibes to Edmonton. Sticking with the Oilers, the guys talked about the past week in Oiler-land and whether the boys were worried about a few sloppy starts even if the games resulted in wins. They also talked about team toughness in the lineup as Jay felt that the game against the Flames showed a deficiency in that department, prompting him and Tyler to argue about that need being real or not. Lastly, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with a look at April's Nation Vacation that will hopefully taking place in April. 

Nation Real Life

Is this Oilers team tough enough?

The weekend may be over but that doesn’t mean your fun has to end because the boys are back with a fresh episode of the Real Life Podcast to help you get this new week started. In today’s episode, the guys talked about the new podcast studio, the first week of the NHL season, fan fights, and a whole lot more. Kicking off today's podcast, the guys jumped in with yet another conversation about the new podcast studio and what it's like to be back in the same room as the other boys for a podcast recording. From a construction standpoint, Chalmers couldn't help but spend a few minutes expressing his excitement about the new building and everything it took to put the project together. As you'll hear, the process to get the Umphreville Block going may seem simple to those that visit the neighbourhood for lunch or dinner, but it was not at all close to it. Changing gears, the guys got into some Oilers talk with a recap of Saturday night's Battle of Alberta and whether or not the team is tough enough after they were pushed around a little bit despite winning the hockey game. They also talked about how this Oilers team could be one of the most loveable squads that we've seen in quite some time, and whether or not this team has the pieces needed to make a real move. Lastly, the guys wrapped up this week's podcast with a look at yet another fan fight that happened in the stands this past week as people can't seem to figure out how to get along in a large group.

Podcast Studio Talk, the Battle of Alberta, and more

Another Thursday has arrived on our calendars and that means the boys from the Real Life Podcast are back with a brand new episode to help you get you through what’s left of your week. Today, the boys were talking about the season opener, and a whole lot more. To kick off the Thursday podcast, the guys jumped in with a look at last night's season opener as Tyler regaled the boys with stories from Rogers Place. From the atmosphere to the crowd to the ovations during player introductions, Yaremchuk broke down what happened at the game and spoke about what it was like to be back there for the first time in 581 days. From there, the podcast completely fell off the rails which allowed Wanye and Baggedmilk to tell stories that had nothing to do with anything. Lastly, the guys wrapped up the podcast by diving into Tyler's life and trying to figure out what he's all about and where he wants to be. Needless to say, you'll probably learn more about what's going on with the Real Life producer than you've ever heard before. 

Season Opener Recap and Tyler Stops Paying Attention

The long weekend may be over but that doesn’t mean the fun has to end because the boys are back with a fresh episode of the Real Life Podcast to help you get this new week started. In today’s episode, the guys looked at the new recording studio, Tyler's tough day, previewed the new season, and a whole lot more. Kicking off today's podcast, the guys got started with a conversation about the new recording studio and all of the new content that's happening at Nation HQ for the upcoming season. As you'll hear, all of that new content meant more opportunities for Tyler to stress out which is an endless source of entertainment for anyone that gets to watch the chaos happen. Changing gears, the guys spoke with great enthusiasm about the new season as they walked through some of the futures bets that are listed on PointsBet. With the Oilers kicking off their season tomorrow night against the Canucks, the guys expressed their excitement about the new season and took a few guesses as to what the atmosphere will be like at Rogers Place for the first non-preseason game with fans in the building. Lastly, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life by trying to extend the show long enough where Tyler wasn't able to get the food he was so desperately needing. 

"Everything Sucks"

Another Thursday has arrived on our calendars and that means the boys from the Real Life Podcast are back with a brand new episode to help you get you through what’s left of your week. Today, the boys were talking about the new podcast studio, Brendan Perlini, and a whole lot more.   To kick off the Thursday episode of Real Life, the guys got started with stories from their school days for some reason, which led down a strange road of grudges about parents giving their stuff away. That led to the boys chatting about the new recording studio and how only half of the cast members were told the podcast was being recorded at Nation HQ today. Somehow, the podcast studio talk caused Chalmers to complain about Connor McDavid's social media feed only featuring ads as opposed to what he's doing on a day-to-day basis. The guys also checked in on the latest round of NFL fan fights which cause Wanye, Jay, and Chalmers to reminisce about their fighting days and how Chalmers was apparently to blame for all of it. Lastly, we wrapped up the podcast with another round of construction tips with Chalmers to help everyone get ready for the coming winter.

Is it goat or goad?

The weekend may be over but that doesn’t mean the fun has to end as the boys are back with a fresh episode of the Real Life Podcast to help you get through what’s left of your Monday. In today’s episode, the guys looked at Facebook and Instagram being down, the NHL preseason, Joey Moss' locker room tribute, and a whole lot more. Kicking off the Monday episode of Real Life, the guys got started with a look at Facebook and Instagram being down and how the Internet is freaking out about the platforms being down. As much as we tend not to think about those platforms all that often apart from getting mad at relatives for their Farmville invites, there is nothing quite as entertaining as the reactions that spread around social media when one of the major platforms are is down.  Moving over to the Oilers, the guys got into some preseason talk as the Oilers continue to make cuts and inch their way towards an opening night roster. As the preseason wears on, the lineups are starting to take shape and it seemed like the guys are starting to get a little bit more fired up about the start of a new year.

This is the Preseason Episode of Podcasting

Another Thursday has landed on the calendar and that means the boys from the Real Life Podcast are back with a brand new episode of the show to help you get you through what’s left of your week. Today, the boys were talking National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, fans being back at Rogers Place, and a whole lot more. Kicking off this week’s podcast, the guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and why it's important to keep the conversation going beyond just this one day. Here at the Nation, the guys talked about how important it is for stories being posted online to take the time to learn about what happened in this county. Changing gears, the guys spoke at length about the preseason that's in full swing and whether or not we should be getting excited about how well the Oilers have done so far. From Zach Hyman finding a home on McDavid's wing to Lamborghini Perlini scoring goals en masse, the Kool-Aid was going down smooth as the guys had a hard time containing their excitement for the new season. Sticking with sports, the guys did another round of NFL bets ahead of the Thursday Night Football matchup between the Bengals and the Jaguars, which kicked off another round of chirps from the guys as they're all trying to muscle their way up the ladder as the podcast's best bettor.

The preseason Kool-Aid goes down smooth

The weekend may be over but that doesn’t mean the fun has to end as the boys are back with a fresh episode of the Real Life Podcast to help you get through what’s left of your Monday. In today’s episode, the guys covered the Oilers' pre-season win over the Flames, climbing the oil derrick, and welcomed John Scott to the podcast to discuss all things hockey and preview the NHL season. To kick off the Monday podcast, the guys got started with a look at the Ryder Cup and specifically how funny it was to see Justin Thomas and Daniel Berger pounding back a couple of beers on day one of the tournament. Speaking of beers, the Oilers are setting up the oil derrick in Ford Hall near the beer gardens which prompted the guys to wonder how long it will take before some drunk dude decides to climb that baby. Getting the show back on the rails, the guys welcomed former NHL tough guy and Dropping the Gloves host, John Scott, to the podcast to talk about everything from sore hips, broken hands, and what it's like to play men's league as a retired NHLer. Looking ahead at the upcoming season, the guys asked John what he expects as the league goes back to its full schedule for the first time since the pandemic started. He also gave the boys a breakdown on what it will be like for the Oilers to have a future Hall of Famer like Duncan Keith in the dressing room. As someone that played with Keith for a couple of years in Chicago, Scott gave his take on how valuable it will be to have a veteran presence like #2 in the room. He also got the boys fired up with his takes on the Oilers that were not overly inspiring but it was definitely fun to hear everyone get fired up about it anyway.

Another Thursday has landed on the calendar and that means the boys from the Real Life Podcast are back with a brand new episode of the show to help you get you through what’s left of your week. Today, they’re talking about new projects, podcast censorship, NFL betting, and a whole lot more. To kick things off, the podcast got started with a conversation about Jay's pitch call to ESPN about a potential new deal that the Network is working on for DailyFaceoff.com. From the legal talk to contracts with a massive company like Disney, it was interesting to hear Jay talk a little bit about what it's like for a deal like this to come together. From there, the guys started talking about all of the stuff that got bleeped out of Monday's podcast and the feedback that came in as a result. Did Tyler cut things out that needed to be cut to save the podcast? All unnecessary? Who's to say. Getting to the Oilers, the guys spoke a little bit about training camp, specifically the video that Ryan Rishaug posted that showed Connor McDavid blowing the doors off his teammates in a skating drill. Sticking with McDavid, the guys spent a few minutes talking about how the Oilers will be featured heavily on TNT in the USA this season and how it makes perfect sense to showcase the league's best player in an attempt to grow the game. Lastly, the guys wrapped up this week's podcast with a little bit of betting talk as week 3 of the NFL season kicks off tonight.

The weekend may be over but that doesn’t mean the fun has to end as the boys are back with a fresh episode of the Real Life Podcast to help you get through what’s left of your Monday. In today’s episode, the guys covered Tyler Yaremchuks's rise to stardom, tennis documentaries, and a whole lot more.   To kick off the Monday podcast, the guys got started by busting Tyler Yaremchuk's balls after he spent a few days in Chicago hobnobbing with some of the NHL's elite last week with Frank Seravalli and the DailyFaceoff crew. From dinners with business daddy to a steak dinner with staff from ESPN to breaking news from Bill Daly, Yaremchuk's first week at full-time with the company was a ridiculous one and it was fun for everyone to hear him tell the story with a huge grin on his face. With Yaremchuk's tires adequately pumped, the podcast got derailed when Chalmers jumped in to talk about tennis documentaries that no one else had seen, but the good news is that it led into a conversation about the fight that broke out at the Cleveland Browns games this past weekend. Finally, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with a little bit of hockey talk after Kailer Yamamoto finally signed his new deal over the weekend, prompting Wanye to ask whether Yamo is as good as we all hope he needs to be.

“Put Some Pride in Your Work”

Real Life Podcast Episode 314 – Woz sits in for Tyler, allowing Baggedmilk and Wanye to steer things into the ditch Another Thursday has landed on the calendar and that means the boys from the Real Life Podcast are back with a brand new episode of the show to help you get you through what's left of your week. Today, they’re talking Woz's podcasting career, space documentaries, adding wrestling into hockey, and a whole lot more. Kicking off this week's podcast, the guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a Woz interview as he was sitting in for Yaremchuk who decided to big time everyone and head down to Chicago with Frank Seravalli. From his soccer podcast taking off to landing a gig with the Nation, Woz gave the guys a rundown on his come up on social media and how he turned that into a gig with the Nation Network. Then, almost surprisingly, the guys sprinkled in a little bit of Oilers talk just to make Tyler Yaremchuk happy even though he'll never listen to the show before Wanye and Baggedmilk steered the podcast into the ditch with an array of topics from old Oilersnation history, trips to Vegas, space talk, and anything else they could think of to talk about. As you'd expect when the inmates take over the prison, this episode of Real Life was all over the map and absolutely structureless, and it will be interesting to hear from the listeners what they thought.

The weekend may be over but that doesn't mean the fun has to stop as the boys are back with a fresh episode of the Real Life Podcast to help you get through what's left of your Monday. In today’s episode, the guys covered glow golf, the Dansbury Trashers, and a whole lot more. To kick off the Monday podcast, the guys got started with a story about Jay's glow golf experience from this past weekend after a Real Life listener slid into his DMs to see if he'd be interested in entering a team. As you can imagine, golfing in the dark is a completely different animal from a normal round of golf and it was interesting to hear the guys give their takes on what it must be like to play in that environment. From there, the conversation changed gears and dove into the Netflix documentary Untold: Crime and Penalties that covered the Dansbury Trashers, and the boys couldn't contain their excitement about was undoubtedly an insane story. From the way the team was purchased to its unbelievable demise, the story of the Danbury Trashers is something every hockey fan should watch because it is a 90 journey that is endlessly entertaining. Finally, the guys wrapped up the Monday edition of the podcast with some sports betting talk after the NFL season kicked off, giving everyone a chance to recap their wins and confess to their losses.

Another Thursday has landed on the calendar and that means the boys from the Real Life Podcast are back with a brand new episode of the show to help you get you through, and this week, they’re talking AirPods, Kool-Aid season in Oil Country, and a whole lot more. Kicking off this week's podcast, Baggedmilk and Tyler got the podcast going while the rest of the crew either bailed or had an impossible time trying to join the zoom call, making for a ridiculously disjointed open to the podcast. After finally making his way into the podcast, Jay explained why he's having an impossible time joining the zoom call and how that led him to buy a second pair of AirPods, potentially welching on a deal he made with Baggedmilk to sell him the old headphones if he found them. Are there shenanigans afoot? It looks that way. Getting into Oilers Kool-Aid season, the guys talked about some of the futures bets you can put down on the team right now, and whether or not they'd be willing to put their own money down on bets like McDavid for Hart, Oilers to win, Draisaitl for Hart, and a whole lot more. Lastly, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with a little bit of football talk as the NFL season kicks off tonight, prompting the boys to launch another round of football betting and prop picks.

Another Thursday is upon us and that means the boys from the Real Life Podcast are back with a brand new episode of the show, and this week, they’re talking Donda, Netflix docs, and a whole lot more. The entire Real Life crew was back for the Thursday episode of the podcast, and the boys got started with a conversation about Yaremchuk's vacation and how he missed all of the Oilersnation Open recaps on both Real Life and Oilersnation Radio. Despite trying to talk golf, the guys turned the conversation towards Donda, the Kanye West album that everyone has been waiting for over the past couple of months and offered up a full breakdown on the 27-track banger. Moving over to the NFL, the guys discussed the situation going on with the New England Patriots after Cam Newton got cut in favour of Mac Jones, a surprising move for many football fans but not necessarily for anyone that's followed Bill Belichick for any length of time. Sticking with sports, the guys discussed an upcoming Netflix documentary that will break down the world of golf in a brand new way and it had everyone excited about it. Lastly, the guys wrapped up this week's podcast with a look at the offer sheet shenanigans going on between the Montreal Canadiens and Carolina Hurricanes. Is this type of predatory (read: entertaining) play good for the league?  The entire Real Life crew was back for the Thursday episode of the podcast, and the boys got started with a conversation about Yaremchuk's vacation and how he missed all of the Oilersnation Open recaps on both Real Life and Oilersnation Radio.

The weekend may be over but the fun is far from over as the boys are back with a fresh episode of the Real Life Podcast to help you get through a sunny Monday here in the capital city. In today’s episode, the guys covered the Oilersnation Open, Woz's missing toe, Dogpatch opening up, and a whole lot more. To kick things off, the podcast got started with a look at the Oilersnation Open that happened this past Thursday out at Cougar Creek Golf Resort. For the guys at Oilersnation, this golf tourney was the first time we were able to get together as a group in over 18 months, and the fun everyone had seemed long overdue. From the weather being perfect to the side bets that were happening on the course, everyone told their favourite stories from what was undoubtedly an amazing day for everyone involved. From there, the podcast took a hard left as Woz told the story of a dog biting off one of his toes and what that meant for him now that he's slightly off balance. Changing gears, the guys had a quick chat about the new Nation HQ that is set to open shortly and how everyone is excited to not only get back in the office but to actually have somewhere cool to go and work. For everyone at Oilersnation, being together always ends up with us putting out our best work so it's no surprise that the guys are all looking forward to getting back to the office. Lastly, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with some hockey talk as we're drawing ever closer to the start of the 2021-22 NHL season, which means it's time for the Oilers Kool-Aid to start going down.
