Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you wrap up the week. On today’s podcast, the guys discussed Chalmers’ Disneyland adventure, the Oilers’ continuous struggles, Trent Frederic’s struggles, and much more.

The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a look at Chalmers’ trip to Disneyland, and how he surprised a family member for a milestone birthday. As a group of 13 people, going to Disneyland became a much larger task and cost than initially expected. From the pirate-themed Airbnb they stayed at to spending the day at Disneyland to weather delays in the desert, Chalmers gave a full update on his time away and what he’s been up to since his last time on the podcast.

Changing gears, the guys discussed the Oilers’ disastrous start to the season and how the team doesn’t seem to have any answers for the recurring issues that are hurting them night in and night out. Is he feeling the heat of the eight-year contract and overthinking what he’s doing? Does he see the money he got as a finish line? They also discussed Edmonton’s goaltending issues and whether there are any solutions available that are not completely ridiculous. Regardless of who you’re blaming, the reality is that there are plenty of areas of concern.

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.
