  • Tyler's wedding drink budget, the Coldplay couple, and Nation Vacation destinations
    2025/07/17

    Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you wrap up your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed Tyler's wedding booze budget, backpacking in parts unknown, flavoured Oreos, and more.


    The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a discussion about how much Tyler is spending on wedding booze, and what the approach will be for doling out drinks without being wasteful. Somehow, talking about Tyler's wedding led Wanye and Baggedmilk down the rabbit hole of bopping around Thailand and how alcohol is basically free compared to the prices we're used to paying.


    Changing gears, the guys looked at the viral Coldplay moment that took over the Internet this week, and how cheating on your missus in a public forum like that isn't the brightest idea. Seeing as the video of the couple's forbidden caress is all over the web, the guys came up with some ideas on how you can spend time with your mistress without getting caught. Of course, all of these tips and advice were just for show and the boys on the Real Life Podcast would never encourage such behaviour.


    Finally, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with a look ahead at the Oilersnation Open, and how the bidding has opened to play with Jay and Chalmers or Tyler and Pat Puff. While Tyler admitted that Jay and Chalmers are better golfers, the guys wondered what kind of cheating would be necessary for the boys to avenge last year's loss. Either way, the ONO is almost sold out once again, and waiting around to enter a team will burn you for real.

  • Edmonton traffic, Isaac Howard, and drinking the Oilers' offseason Kool-Aid
    2025/07/14

    Monday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you kick off your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed Isaac Howard's future with the Oilers, construction issues in the city, and anything else that came about.


    The guys kicked off the Monday podcast with a discussion about construction in the city after Chalmers was late for the show because he was stuck in traffic. While being trapped at 1:30 PM on a Monday seems unlikely, it did lead to an interesting conversation about how navigating the city is almost impossible at this point. Will the construction be done by the end of summer? Unlikely.


    Changing topics, the guys discussed some of the changes the Oilers have made over the last week, including the trade for Isaac Howard and the swapping out of a handful of coaches. Starting with the Ice Man, the guys wanted to know how excited everyone is allowed to get about a hotshot prospect who has yet to play even a shift of NHL hockey. Despite winning the Hobey Baker Trophy, there is concern that he got the job done in his draft +2 season, which is unlike some of the winners who came before him.


    From there, the guys recapped Baggedmilk's weekend in Seattle and Chalmers' dislike of the new Mission Impossible movie because the villain wasn't evil enough. Talking about movies and TV led the guys to discuss the first week of Big Brother, even though Chalmers was the only one who had watched the first couple of episodes. If you're one of the listeners who hates when the boys talk BB, then this is your warning that the Big Brother talk will be kicking off shortly.

    Finally, the guys confirmed a location and date for Tyler's hole-in-one challenge. Thanks to the folks at Cattail Crossing, Tyler will be teeing off on August 18th to see if he's able to get the job done. While Tyler remains confident that he can get the job done, the conversation turned to the logistical side of the challenge and how it's all going to work so people at home can join in on the action.

  • The Boys Had A Weekend & Eli Completed The 9/9/9 Challenge
    2025/07/07

    The boys kicked off their week with a jam packed episode of The Real Life Podcast as they sat down to talk about a wide range of topics, starting with the busy weekend that Jay, Chalmers and Tyler had. The trio spent all day together on Saturday golfing and putting back cold ones and it resulted in some great stories and the three of them still feeling the effects almost 48 hours later.


    That led to some more talk about Tyler’s hole in one challenge and the likelihood of him accomplishing the feat. They then brought in Eli who accomplished a big feat of his own this past week. He successfully completed the 9 beers and 9 hot dogs in 9 innings challenge at a Riverhawks game and lived to tell the tale. He talked about how much of a grind it was and how he felt in the hours afterwards.


    From there, Chalmers told the story about his week with his new found family from overseas. The guys also put together their list of the top ten things to do in the city of Edmonton, and put out a call for some suggestions.


    They wrapped up with a little bit of talk about the red hot Toronto Blue Jays, who have won eight games in a row. They have Tyler feeling a certain type of way and Chalmers asked some introductory questions as he looks get back on the baseball bandwagon.

  • Welcome Andrew Mangiapane & Raising A Prodigy Athlete
    2025/07/03

    Today’s podcast was all Tyler and Wanye. The duo sat down for the Thursday episode of the pod and talked about everything from the Oilers new free agent addition Andrew Mangiapane, the departures of Corey Perry and Connor Brown, and what it would be like having to raise a prodigy athlete.


    They also talked about the hockey content season coming to a close and all the podcasts and videos that the Nation Network crew put out over the year. They also talked about the origins of the Real Life Podcast and how wild it is that this current crew has been together for almost six years!


    They then talked about the Brick tournament and that led them to a discussion about raising a prodigy athlete and which sports would be the easiest or most difficult to manage. They wrapped up with some talk about the Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating contest, some big headlines in the sporting world, and the Edmonton Elks.

  • The Tyler and Baggedmilk Show
    2025/06/30

    Monday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you kick off your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed the NHL Draft, Tyler's cat conundrum, Oilers rumours, and more.


    The guys started the podcast with a conversation about the strange NHL Draft that happened on Friday without the teams being in attendance, while the rest of the players and media were still there. Not only was the first round incredibly boring and awkward, but the fact that the two days weren't any faster than normal was truly disappointing.

    Next up, the guys discussed the new CFL collaboration with OVO and how partnering with Drake is a great way to create some buzz in a league that desperately needs attention. The OVO/CFL collaboration allowed Tyler and Bagged Milk to discuss their price limit for buying clothes. When OVO collaborated with the NHL, the cost of hoodies was astronomical, which suggests the same will likely be true for this new CFL merchandise.


    The next topic was an examination of TikTok algorithms, specifically focusing on the types of content that occupied the boys' feeds. From landscaping to sports science to the random chaos that sometimes fills the void, the remarkable thing about TikTok is how the platform seems to capture people's attention, even when the videos are not their typical interests.


    Finally, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with a recap of the Tyler golf challenge and how there are plenty of people on Twitter who don't believe he has a chance. While Tyler feels confident that he can get the job done — Baggedmilk agrees with him — he does need to think about the challenge tactically if he doesn't want to gas himself out before the job is done.

  • Jay and Baggedmilk are back from Toronto, Tyler's bachelor party debate, and a hole in 1 challenge
    2025/06/26

    Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you get through what's left of your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed getting struck by lightning, Jay and Baggedmilk's trip to Toronto, Tyler's bachelor party, and more.


    The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life by discussing theories about getting struck by lightning. While certainly improbable, the boys offered Tyler a few different scenarios about what it would take from him to accept a lightning strike. Talking golf then led to a discussion about equipment costs in sports, and how much a person can spend on marginal upgrades in their game.


    From there, Jay and Baggedmilk recapped their trip to Toronto, describing it as an eventful one, complete with meetings, hard work, and a pair of sweeping power outages. From some fun meetings with the crew at La Poche Bleue to hearing NHL stories from Max Lapierre to sweating through multiple shirts on a daily basis, it was a quick trip to Toronto that was as eventful as it was sweaty. Needless to say, it was 48 eventful hours on the road for the boys.


    Finally, the podcast wrapped with a story of Jay finally getting his wish of missing out on Tyler's bachelor party after Little Brick's 10th anniversary events got in the way. As you'll hear, the conversation is about whether Jay should still go for a shortened weekend or if he should give up his spot to Tyler's dad. In the end, Jay's media responsibilities ended up getting in the way, and the result is that Ross has been given the green light to replace him.

  • It's The Tyler & Chalmers Show!
    2025/06/23

    It was all Chalmers and Tyler hour today on The Real Life Podcast as the rest of the podcast crew was off doing stuff in their real lives. The guys actually got to do a lot of interesting stuff in their hour together, beginning with a weird meeting that the two of them had in the street over the weekend. That also got them onto the topic of Tyler’s new rollerblading habit.


    They did then get into some good hockey talk as Chalmers wanted to give his thoughts on the Florida Panthers Stanley Cup celebration and whether or not they’ve crossed the line with some of the things that have been said at their parties. Tyler talked about how this type of behaviour could have been expected from a team winning their first Stanley Cup. They also talked about the nauseating rumours that continue to float around regarding Connor McDavid’s future in Edmonton.


    They wrapped up by going to some other spots in the sports world, like Game 7 of the NBA Finals, and ranked the “championship moments” in each of the four major North American sports leagues. Chalmers also had some golf takes which led to Tyler telling a heartbreaking story about his round from the weekend. They wrapped with a personal tale from Chalmers that involves long lost family making their first trip to Canada.

  • The first offseason episode, Connor McDavid's contract, and a classic roster argument
    2025/06/19

    Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you kick off the rest of your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed the Oilers' loss to Florida, Connor McDavid's extension comments, and more.


    The guys started the Thursday episode of Real Life with a discussion about what went wrong with the Oilers in the Stanley Cup Final, and how it wasn't nearly as close this year as it was the previous year. As much as it's painful to admit, the Panthers were the better team throughout the series, and it wasn't exactly surprising to see Florida lock down a second straight Cup win. They also discussed the Connor McDavid press conference, and how there are so many people overthinking his comments that he wants to do what's best for his family.


    Changing gears, Wanye wanted to know if travelling back to Florida for the second straight SCF gave the boys some appreciation for the travel schedule pro athletes have to deal with. While there's no doubt that travelling on a private jet is not the same as slogging through commercial flights, the reality is that the late nights and being away from home cannot be easy. Either way, there's no doubt that flying across the continent is a slog regardless of how you get there.


    Finally, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with some beef between Tyler and Jay after the latter blamed the Cup loss on Evan Bouchard and Stuart Skinner. As you'll hear, the boys got spicy about two key players and whether or not they should be part of the solution going forward. As always, the boys were passionate about the roster and what needs to change for the team to get over the hump finally.
