2026-1-08 | 1h 28 mins.
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 Christmas delays, sports rink advertising, the World Juniors, and more.The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about Christmas delays and how long we're allowed to accept them as excuses. Tyler has been waiting for parts to fix his toilet, but the company he ordered them from keeps citing the holiday break as the reason he doesn't have them yet. Somehow, that led to a discussion about advertising at the arena and how times have changed so much in the last two decades.Changing gears, the conversation turned to Connor McDavid's brilliance, and how this 16-game heater he's on is making everyone else look like dopes. From the goals to the shots to the speed, everything is clicking for the captain right now, and there doesn't seem to be much the rest of the league can do about it. Sticking with hockey, the guys walked through Canada's performance at the World Juniors, and whether losing to Czechia for the third straight year should raise alarms with Hockey Canada. Are we losing because hockey is a rich-kid sport? Were the boys thinking about this too much?Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast with the Thursday episode of Real Life with a random collection of topics, including Nation staff spending habits, beefs of the week, Chalmers' New Year's Eve hot tub trouble, and whatever else came to mind. Given that the boys haven't recorded an episode in a few weeks, the last half of the podcast was all over the map. Needless to say, Thursday's episode of real life was all over the map.

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 Jarry vs. Skinner game, Leon Draisaitl's 1000th point, and more.The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about ginger beef being invented in Calgary and how you can only find it in Western Canada unless the restaurant owner is Canadian. From there, the guys jumped into the Stuart Skinner conversation and how the Oilers celebrated Leon Draisaitl's 1000th point only a few feet away from their former goaltender. Should the Oilers have tried to move the pile away from Stu? Are we being too sensitive about the situation?Changing gears, the conversation turned to Leon Draisaitl's 1000th point picture in the room, and how everyone had a cigarette in their mouth to commemorate his viral wedding photo. From there, Chalmers tried to figure out which players had enjoyed a butt or two based solely on how they had it sitting in their mouths. Sticking with the Oilers, the fellas looked ahead to Thursday's matchup against the Bruins and whether a trip to Boston can be enough to wake up Trent Frederic. Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast with the Thursday episode of Real Life, covering a random collection of topics, including beefs of the week and maybe a moment or two of Edmonton Oilers hockey talk. Needless to say, when the team is as bad as they've been lately, talking about literally any other topic just seems more enjoyable. As always, the Thursday episode was all over the map, which is precisely what you'd expect from the Real Life podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

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 Philip Rivers' return to the NFL, Morgan Wallen = Drake, Jay's list of traffic tickets, and more.The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about Tyler Yaremchuk's wedding and how we're finally able to release his Oodle Noodle ad from the ceremony. As you'll see, Tyler nailed the ad copy to open up the speeches, and the video is hilarious. Shifting gears, the guys discussed Philip Rivers' return to the Indianapolis Colts after a five-year absence. Needless to say, this is one of the wildest sports stories in recent memory, and we won't have to wait long to see how the experiment goes. Changing gears, the conversation turned to music after Wanye noted some dramatic weight loss in the music industry lately. With Ozempic so prevalent, it's hard to imagine there's no trade-off to losing weight so easily. That led to the boys talking about their annual Spotify wraps, and Chalmers' theory that Morgan Wallen is basically the Drake of country music. Somehow, talking about music led to Jay telling the story of the recent run of tickets he got yesterday and how he now has to deal with a wide list of infractions. Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast with the Thursday episode of Real Life with a random collection of topics, including a look at anything other than the Edmonton Oilers. Needless to say, when the team is as bad as they've been lately, talking about literally any other topic just seems more enjoyable. As always, the Thursday episode was all over the map, which is precisely what you'd expect from the Real Life podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
