We&#8217;re only hours away from Canada taking on the USA at the 4 Nations Face-Off, which meant an opportunity to talk about the 4 Nations final, dad stories, the Saturday Night Live 50th anniversary, and a whole lot more.
The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life by discussing the Canada vs. USA 4 Nations final, which is coming up on Thursday, and how that tournament engaged fans all over the continent. While many folks weren&#8217;t excited about the tournament before it began, it didn&#8217;t take long before all of those doubters were fully wrapped up in the moment. Needless to say, there is a very real appetite for best-on-best hockey, and this tournament is a perfect example of that.
Changing gears, Wanye told another dad story about going to pick up his little man from daycare and having his four-year-old son scream as loud as he could in his ear. As you&#8217;ll hear — see what we did there — Wanye is stumped about what to do after ChatGPT told him to seek medical attention if the problem doesn&#8217;t clear up in 24 hours. Wanye&#8217;s story inspired Chalmers to rant about his boys&#8217; school schedule over the next two weeks, and how it&#8217;s impossible to understand how little class time his boys actually have.
Finally, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with a chat about the Saturday Night Live 50th Anniversary Special. If you&#8217;re a big fan of the legendary sketch show, the amount of content that&#8217;s been coming out about the anniversary lately has been fantastic. As you&#8217;ll hear, Chalmers was incredibly excited about the special and was not shy about sharing his favourite moments.
