After a one-week hiatus due to power upgrades getting done at Nation HQ, the boys are back with a brand new episode of the Real Life Podcast. This week, the guys talk a whole lot of sports as both the NHL and NBA wrapped up their respective seasons.
To start off this week’s show, the guys discuss trying to level up the podcast and turn it into something that sounds a little more professional. With the likes of Jason Gregor and Yukon Jack often listening to see how things are going, the need to level up is on everyone’s minds and the boys tried to take a step in that direction. Moving on, the Toronto Raptors won their first championship in franchise history and the guys discussed whether or not they got wrapped up in the hype despite not being basketball fans. With the Raptors being front and centre, how could the guys not touch on Drake? As always, Chalmers came in hot with some spicy Drake takes and it kicked off a disagreement about whether or not he was too much of a distraction during this run. Getting off of basketball, the boys dove into the St. Louis Blues’ Stanley Cup win, including Brett Hull’s amazing post-win celebration and the possibility of Pat Maroon coming back to the Edmonton Oilers this summer. Lastly, Jay and Wanye tell the story of picking up their seats from Rexall Place and what it was like to go in the old building now that the Oilers have moved on.
