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 the Oilers‘ potential playoff matchups, Shotty Millz showing up at Nation HQ, best in-person sports, and much more.
The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about Shotty Millz coming down to Nation HQ, and how Tyler didn’t seem to find much joy in having the local rapper in the building. As you’ll hear, the boys ganged up on Tyler a little bit and questioned his motives for poo-pooing the grind. From there, the boys pivoted to beefs of the week, including Chris Pronger’s take on Edmonton, Christmas lights left out year-round, and Alberta’s horrible stretch of weather.
Changing gears, the conversation turned to the Oilers’ potential playoff matchups and how wild it is that we won’t know what’s happening until after Thursday’s game against Vancouver. Not only do we not know who the Oilers will play in Round 1, but we also don’t know what day they will even be starting. As far as starting another playoff run, it’s hard to get excited just yet when there are so many unanswered questions in the air.
Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast on the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with Rory McIlroy winning the Masters for the second consecutive year, and which team everyone would prefer Edmonton to face in Round 1. The guys also discussed their final attempt at the bet365 first goal scorer challange, and how Wanye and Chalmers need a Hail Mary to get themselves back in the mix.
