Better Lait Than Never: Summer Livin’ in the Y-E-G

I’m a day late with the podcast but the good news is that I titled my show appropriately for such delays.
Kicking off the podcast, I got started with an ode to summer in Edmonton. Personally, I don’t think there’s anywhere I would rather be than here when the sun is out, the days are long, and the list of things to do grows by the day. This past week was another busy one for your boy as I took in yet another Riverhawks game on Tuesday night before hitting up the Volbeat concert at Rogers Place last night. When the season ended, I challenged myself to do more things around the city and I think I’ve done a pretty good job of getting that done so far. Changing gears, the only Oilers news stories worth talking about this week were Raphael Lavoie accepting his qualifying offer and Jeremy Coupal parting ways with the organization after basically becoming a folk hero around here. Lastly, I wrapped up the episode with a fresh round of voicemails to get your take on the BLTN presidential election and what’s been going on over the last week. Oh, and subscribe to my YouTube channel.
