Real Life Podcast: The timeline for Jay’s home run attempt, food takes, and our new intern Aleena

Jun 1, 2023, 18:00 EDTUpdated: Jun 1, 2023, 17:03 EDT
With no Oilers hockey in sight, the newest episode of the Real Life podcast had no structure and absolutely no set agenda whatsoever. If you’re a fan of nonsense, this episode is for you.
Kicking off the Thursday episode of Real Life, the guys got started by introducing our new intern, Aleena, even though she really had no interest in being on the podcast. As you’ll hear, the guys asked Aleena one question and barely let her answer before steering the show into the ditch. From unpopular food takes to Tyler’s confession that he accidentally eats his own lip, the start of this podcast was an absolute disaster. Trying to get the show back on track, Aleena was finally able to get a couple of answers in about her journey in journalism and what it’s been like to be an intern at The Nation Network. Changing gears, Jay finally got some clarity about when he’ll be doing some batting practice at RE/MAX to find out once and for all if he can hit a ball out of the park. Lastly, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with another random collection of topics that were as all over the map as the stories were incomplete. Needless to say, we’ve officially reached the off-season version of Real Life.
