Rainy Edmonton problems, Mike Babcock, and Chalmers' wipeout

from Nation Real Life

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 Mike Babcock press conference, the rain in Edmonton, the NBA Draft, and much more.The guys kicked off this week's episode of Real Life with a conversation about LEGO. Why? Because the boys did absolutely no prep before the show and it was literally the first thing that came to mind. Yet, talking about Tyler doing LEGO sets opened up a conversation about reclaiming attention, and doing what you can to have more moments without your phone glued to your hand. Needless to say, the start of today's podcast was as scattered as ever. Shifting gears, the boys discussed the video Chalmers posted on his Instagram of him falling on his ass. Everyone knows how much rain there's been in Edmonton over the last few days, but seeing a video of Chalmers wiping out was a nice little dose of sunshine. Sticking with the rain, Chalmers continued on with a story about one of his rental properties flooding because it's amazing how often things go wrong when unexpected weather happens. Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast on the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with the Mike Babcock press conference, and how his answers to questions were as weird as they were avoidant. Either way, the team has made its decision, and we're starting off the Mike Babcock era no matter what anyone things. From there, the boys discussed some of the massive NHL trades that have happened this week, which somehow led to Chalmers sharing an interesting observation from the NBA draft.  Hosted on Acast.
