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 Chalmers’ trip to Mexico, a quick Nation Vacation recap, some love for Connor Ingram, the Oilers‘ resurgence, and more.
The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about Chalmers’ trip to Mexico, and how it was the first time his boys had ever been to an all-inclusive resort. As much as Chalmers loves going down to Mexico, it was also a little bit eerie to be in Puerto Vallarta with all of the craziness happening around the country right now. He also walked the boys through the struggles he was having to find a spot that would show the Oilers game.
Changing gears, the conversation turned to the Nation Vacation trip to Las Vegas. Tyler and Baggedmilk walked Chalmers through some of the best stories from this latest trip, and how it was one of the best runs down to Vegas that we’ve ever done. Even with a smaller group, there were so many amazing stories to share that the boys really only scratched the surface. From winning money to trip darts to what it was like to be at T-Mobile Arena for such a massive moment.
Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast on the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with Connor Ingram getting a birthday shutout and how he’s been so good over the last couple of weeks. Shifting gears, the boys walked through some of the new rule changes in the MLB, and how they all appreciate how the heads of baseball are always looking for ways to improve the game.
