A brand new week is underway, which means the boys from the Real Life Podcast are back with a brand new episode to help you ease back into work life after another round of practice retirement. On today’s show, the guys looked at Saturday’s horrendous loss to the Stars, what we should expect on this current road trip, and a whole lot more.
Kicking off today’s podcast, the guys got started with confessions about getting bamboozled on the Internet and how we can be so easily tricked these days. Whether it was Baggedmilk getting upset about Drake not going on the Howard Stern Show or Wanye falling for a fake John Tortorella quote about Auston Matthews, it doesn’t take much to get had online these days. That led Wanye to finally telling the story about how he found out Sam Gagner was supposed to be the next captain of the Edmonton Oilers, and how the whole world came crashing down around them when he was wrong. Turning back to the Oilers, the guys looked at the disaster that happened on Saturday and how it’s very disheartening to watch the team struggle as much as they are during the daylight hours. After that loss, Jack Campbell spoke to the media and could not have been harder on himself, and that led the guys to discuss different ways to get back on his game without anything getting worse. From there, the guys talked about tonight being Connor McDavid’s 500th game and how it’s a trip to think that he’s already played this much hockey.
