Real Life Podcast: Oilers are hot, Mark Carney at practice, and sports conspiracies

Mar 20, 2025, 08:00 EDTUpdated: Mar 20, 2025, 17:49 EDT
Thursday afternoon means a new episode of the Real Life podcast is recorded, edited, and ready to wrap up your week. On today’s podcast, the guys discussed Mark Carney at Oilers practice, Chalmers not calling the boys back, and much more.
The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a discussion about why Chalmers did not return Tyler or Baggedmilk’s call on Tuesday night when they offered him a free ticket to the Oilers game. Even though the podcast started with Chalmers ghosting the boys, they didn’t get more than two seconds into the story before changing topics to something else.
The guys then discussed Prime Minister Mark Carney joining the Oilers for practice this morning and how the sight is as interesting as it was controversial for some of the fanbase. Regardless of where you sit politically, what’s objectively true is how unique it is for a sitting Prime Minister to be an Oilers fan. Politicians typically jump on the bandwagon in the playoffs, but Carney genuinely seems to love this team. Will a visit from the PM help the boys against the Winnipeg Jets?
Changing gears, Tyler wanted to talk about some sports conspiracies after he fell down a rabbit hole of unexplained stories in the world of sports. From Alex Mogilny not being in the Hall of Fame to the Luka Doncic trade to the Lakers to some thinking that the Sedin twins changed place at one point in their career, the stories and theories are limitless. Regardless of what you think of any of these theories, it certainly is fun to talk about the possibility of high-level shenanigans.
Finally, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with a collection of random topics, including Kanye’s recent run of horrible tweets, TikTok conspiracies, Blockbuster late fees, and much more. As always, the last half of Real Life was all over the place. If you’re looking for some hockey talk mixed in with betting and nonsense, the Thursday episode of Real Life is for you.
