0:53
And I'm Carver .
0:54
What are you drinking , carver ?
0:55
I'm drinking a Vizie lemonade . Leisha , what are you drinking
0:58
?
0:58
I am also drinking a Vizie lemonade , but ours
1:00
are different . Mine is a watermelon .
1:02
Mine is raspberry . I
1:05
don't need to tell you what it's like because I already know it's good . Yeah
1:07
, it's ready . Three of these like 45 times .
1:09
Yeah , they're pretty good . Wow Hi
1:11
, it's
1:14
been a while .
1:16
It's been a good while .
1:18
Sorry , my
1:20
life fell apart because
1:22
of me .
1:23
Is that what happened I
1:26
?
1:26
don't know . I
1:28
feel like that's what happened , but that's just because I had
1:30
a breakdown recently .
1:31
No , you just did like massive , this massive
1:34
, what's it called ? What's
1:36
the word Market
1:40
? And you were like just
1:42
going ham sauce on that all
1:45
the time .
1:45
Yeah .
1:46
And we made a decision We'll just hold
1:48
off on the podcast for now . You
1:50
need to do this because it was like a big
1:52
market you were going to .
1:56
I saw about a thousand people .
1:58
Yes .
2:01
Like over the course of the weekend , and
2:05
it was a lot , so I was going
2:07
pretty hard on making
2:09
things like Christmas cards and paintings
2:12
and trying not to lose my fucking
2:14
mind , so
2:17
we kind of took a little break .
2:19
We're like half ass streaming at the time
2:21
.
2:22
Yeah , we're just doing not a lot . The
2:26
main reason that we didn't release an episode
2:28
the last time like the very first
2:30
time that we missed an episode
2:32
because we had to suddenly go to Kamloops-
2:35
that's true . And
2:37
then we're like , oh , oops .
2:40
Yeah , I had to go rescue my brother
2:42
with his truck because he knows nothing
2:44
about vehicles , but that's
2:46
okay , because I can make him come here and work
2:49
on our house next .
2:50
Well , car is in your name , yeah
2:53
yeah
2:55
. So
3:00
we had to go to Kamloops . We'll
3:02
just give you like a recap of the last couple
3:04
of months of our lives . We had to
3:06
go to Kamloops and then
3:08
we and
3:14
you did a market , I did a market . I did a market
3:16
. I went to the city for like a week
3:18
and I hated every minute of it .
3:20
Yeah , and you went to the Jonas Brothers .
3:22
And I did go to the Jonas Brothers . I had to leave
3:24
about 20 minutes before
3:26
the concert got out .
3:28
Yeah , you guys are having a rough time . After a while I
3:30
was like chilling in the hotel room just by
3:33
myself vibing
3:35
, and you're like come and get me . And I'm like I'm not ready
3:37
yet , I'm not done
3:39
laying down and doing nothing yet .
3:41
Yeah , I
3:43
felt so sick and just like being
3:47
in the room , like you could not hear
3:49
the Jonas Brothers saying over the screams
3:51
.
3:52
Yeah , I think I said that was a pretty awful concert
3:54
for that .
3:55
It was like it was a good concert
3:58
. They're good .
3:59
Well it's . The problem was not
4:02
the artist , yeah , the environment
4:04
, it was the fans . That's what I understand
4:06
.
4:07
The environment was just like not not Gucci
4:09
you said , all you could hear is just screaming
4:11
girls . And the girl beside me knew every
4:13
single word to every single
4:15
song , even songs I don't
4:17
even know .
4:18
Yeah , you've never been like a Jonas Brothers mega
4:21
fan .
4:21
Yeah , I was not a mega fan .
4:24
I was just like , oh my .
4:25
God , I'm going to marry .
4:27
Nick , you were never like breathe and sleep
4:29
. Jonas Brothers , you've never
4:31
been that kind of that kind Like I am with
4:33
Fallow Boy yeah . That's
4:35
exactly what I mean .
4:39
Like I am with Fallow Boy City and Color and Hail
4:41
Store you know , now that I think about it .
4:42
I don't remember you listening to Jonas Brothers
4:45
at all .
4:46
Oh .
4:47
When we were like in high school .
4:48
Yeah , that's because I didn't have
4:50
an iPod , I didn't
4:53
have my own library .
4:54
Remember , I got that iPod that
4:56
you listened to and I told you to tell me what
4:58
you wanted and I put everything you told me that
5:00
you wanted on there .
5:01
Yeah , but the thing is , and you never want to ask me for Jonas
5:04
Brothers . Okay , because I was too embarrassed to say
5:06
that I like the Jonas Brothers , because I was too cool
5:08
for that .
5:10
Oh it was , you were a punk girl .
5:12
Yeah , you weren't . I wanted to impress
5:15
you by , like , not
5:17
putting the Jonas Brothers on there
5:19
.
5:20
Yeah , but you listen to other music . I hate like fucking
5:22
Panic at the Disco .
5:24
Panic at the Disco is not that bad .
5:26
I hate Panic at the Disco . You
5:28
know that song about closing the door .
5:30
I never played that song around you .
5:32
You played it every day when
5:35
we were in high school . You played it every day , I
5:37
know , but I don't play it and I hated it so much I
5:39
don't play it around you anymore . Good .
5:42
I actively avoid that song .
5:43
Yes , thank you . But
5:45
yeah , like that is probably one of my least favorite
5:47
songs of all time . When
5:50
I hear it , I see red . I
5:53
hate that song .
5:54
To be fair , I don't even like that song anymore .
5:56
There was a lot of songs you listened to and
5:59
they were fine . Other
6:01
songs you listened to just as much and they were fine . It's just that
6:03
song in particular . I hate it
6:05
. I hate it so much .
6:08
But to be fair , I don't listen
6:11
to it much anymore on my own .
6:12
I don't think you listen to that song . You listen to
6:14
some Panic at the Disco but it's not that awful song .
6:16
Yeah , but it's like their newer stuff .
6:18
Yeah , it's not that awful terrible .
6:20
It's now more like less
6:22
absurd .
6:25
Well , it makes real music now . It
6:28
doesn't make quirky music for fucking
6:30
Tumblr users .
6:32
He makes real music . That's what I mean . It's
6:35
like it's different now . It's not as absurd
6:37
. Half
6:40
the shit that they said in their pretty
6:42
odd album .
6:44
The issue wasn't that it was absurd . The issue is that it
6:46
sucked . Okay , because follow up boys
6:48
.
6:48
just as absurd , followboy wasn't just a favorite and their music
6:51
doesn't suck . Followboy has a song
6:53
that it said . Our lawyer told us to change the
6:55
name of this song so that we don't get sued
6:57
.
6:57
Yeah , like it's not that . It was absurd
7:00
. It said it sucked and his music
7:02
doesn't suck anymore .
7:03
Although , okay , what is the
7:05
longest title of a song you can remember
7:08
?
7:18
It's coming to mind as like the devil went down
7:20
to Georgia .
7:22
Do you want to hear mine ? No , sure
7:24
. You
7:26
be the anchor that keeps my feet on the ground
7:28
and I'll be the wings that keep your heart in the clouds
7:31
.
7:31
Not as long as I thought it would be Do
7:34
you know who it's by . Who .
7:37
Mayday Parade .
7:40
Mayday Parade was okay .
7:41
Mayday Parade was . No , you hated them
7:44
, did I ? Yeah , your like . His voice gives me
7:46
a headache .
7:47
Who is the ? Am I thinking
7:49
of a different band ?
7:50
I think you think you give a different band .
7:52
I think I am . I'm thinking of , not
7:55
Mayday Parade . Who's that other one ? Fuck
8:05
, now I gotta look it up . It's
8:08
on the tip of my tongue .
8:10
Mayday Parade City
8:12
in color .
8:13
No , no , there's not who I'm thinking . It's another
8:15
pop punk band .
8:16
Oh , Maroon 5?
8:18
.
8:18
No , all time low
8:21
.
8:21
Ew .
8:21
That's something .
8:23
I don't listen to them anymore .
8:25
I don't think you never really listen to them . Back then you listen
8:27
to the one song . Yeah
8:29
, and it is an all right song .
8:31
The Backseat Serenade one the like
8:33
Backseat Serenade
8:35
.
8:35
No , not that one .
8:36
Oh , that's the only one I know . Ah , we're
8:43
googling things friends .
8:48
Favorite drive . No , that's not what I'm thinking of .
8:51
Favorite drive .
8:53
Karate High School no .
8:56
I don't even know what Karate High School is .
8:58
I mean either Jimmy Eat World is that a pop
9:00
punk band ? Yes , huh , I
9:03
thought they were just like a normal alternative band
9:05
.
9:06
I don't know , could
9:08
be a lot of things .
9:09
I just know that they were on a lot of NHL soundtracks
9:11
back in the day .
9:13
I like Jimmy Eat World , except
9:15
for they're considered classic rock now .
9:18
Yeah , they play them on classic rock stations
9:20
.
9:21
That and like , like in Park , like in .
9:22
Park . Well
9:24
, every band that's that old is now classic
9:27
rock . That's the truth
9:29
.
9:29
Makes you feel old , don't it ? Anyway
9:32
, I went to the Jones Brothers . I
9:35
slept over at my friend's house . He
9:37
has a cat . I suffered because
9:40
the cat liked to sleep near my face
9:42
.
9:44
And you and cats don't get along on a biological
9:47
level .
9:48
Yeah , I'm so allergic it's
9:50
not even funny . Like
9:53
I love cats , don't get me wrong
9:55
.
9:55
And Boris , that's probably why we don't
9:57
have one . If you weren't allergic , we would .
10:00
Yeah , like Boris is an angel
10:02
. He is such a sweet kitty , but
10:06
my body physically rejects cats
10:09
, so no
10:11
cats . So no cats I
10:14
like . I have to like
10:16
pop so many anti
10:19
histamines to
10:21
just be able to breathe normally
10:23
.
10:25
Yeah , and Boris is one of those cats . That's like
10:27
I'm asleep
10:29
on your face now .
10:31
Like Zelda , when I , when
10:33
I babysat for one of my friend's
10:35
cats , the cat just literally
10:37
like to sleep right here . That was
10:39
their spot . It was like right above
10:42
your head when you're sleeping .
10:43
So it's like the spot for half of cats I've
10:45
noticed .
10:46
And I like don't enjoy that because
10:48
, like as much as I love Zelda , I
10:50
was just like , can you please know what
10:52
? My aunt had a cat snored
10:55
.
10:56
My aunt had a cat named I think it was Monty
10:58
, and she
11:01
lived on a farm , so all the cats were outside
11:03
except for this one cat , because it had . It had some kind
11:05
of problem breathing , like it was always
11:07
stuffed up , like
11:09
he always had , like you know , boogers hanging out
11:11
of his nose . He's like , he's
11:13
like . He's like that , that little fucking
11:15
kid in Wind Waker running
11:17
around with the big bubble hanging out of
11:19
his nose . You pretty much you probably don't know who I'm talking
11:22
about , but people who know will know . Anyway
11:25
, that's , that was the cat . And what it would do
11:27
is when you were over there
11:29
sleeping at her house , and
11:31
if you were the one on the couch , it would
11:34
like , like , as you're sleeping , it
11:36
would just get right up in your face like sleep on your
11:38
chest , okay , whatever , but it would like look at
11:40
you and like what and
11:42
like . This never happened to me , it
11:44
happened to , I think , my brother
11:46
. It was just looking at him and
11:48
he wakes up and it just fucking sneezes in his
11:50
face . And
11:53
it's just cats , not all over
11:55
.
11:55
Is this the one that's allergic to cats ?
11:59
No , I don't think so . I don't think he ever stayed
12:01
at my auntie's house because
12:03
of the cat .
12:05
Oh , because one
12:07
of Carver's brothers and I have the same problem
12:09
.
12:11
Yeah , except he's way more allergic than you .
12:12
I know and I'm pretty bad .
12:14
Like he will die . If he's around a cat
12:17
for more than a few hours , it's pretty bad
12:19
. And I'm pretty bad that's
12:21
but he yeah , well
12:24
, he has asthma too . That's the thing . He's allergic
12:26
and he has asthma . So that's probably the big
12:28
difference .
12:29
I don't have asthma . Yeah , exactly , but
12:32
my lungs are not
12:34
full of cobwebs .
12:35
Yeah .
12:37
That's what I imagine asthma feels like .
12:40
Probably , probably
12:42
.
12:43
So I had this market . I slept over at a friend's
12:45
house . That was a lovely . I got to hold
12:48
two out of the three girls
12:50
that my best friend had . I
12:53
cried . They literally shoved a baby in
12:56
my arms less than two minutes into coming to see
12:58
me at the market and I was like sitting there just
13:00
like they're like here you go , and I'm
13:02
like sitting there holding the baby and I was just like like
13:07
. I immediately texted Carver I want babies
13:09
. I'm just like
13:11
I know gave
13:15
me such bad baby fever . Oh my god
13:18
.
13:20
And you go to her house and she's like she's
13:22
like my life , yeah , which
13:24
you can't really blame her with fucking
13:27
triplets .
13:27
I get snapchats all the time of all three
13:29
of them just screaming their faces off .
13:32
Yeah , because she's . You know , she's there alone because
13:34
her husband is working .
13:37
They have a nanny .
13:38
Oh , do they ? Oh , I was under the impression she
13:40
was always alone with them .
13:41
No , no
13:44
, they take shifts and the
13:46
nanny fills in the gap .
13:47
Gotcha .
13:48
Yeah .
13:48
Gotcha Makes sense .
13:50
Yeah , apparently , she's very
13:53
lovely .
13:55
I'd hope so . Yes , I wouldn't the
13:57
girls , I wouldn't you know , pay for a sour
13:59
, oh and I found out .
14:00
It's so cute . My best friend paints their toes
14:02
so they can tell them apart . So
14:04
people who don't spend a lot of time with them can tell
14:06
them apart .
14:07
Makes sense Because they can tell them apart , no
14:09
problem , I mean you could just like mark , you
14:12
know , an O on one with some Sharpie
14:14
and X on the other one's forehead and then a check
14:16
mark on the other one's forehead .
14:19
But that's more cute , I guess . Yeah , she
14:21
just paints their little tiny toenails and they're
14:24
so cute . They have small feets
14:26
.
14:27
Well , yeah , they're babies .
14:28
I had my last market today of
14:31
the year . Of the day Of
14:33
the year .
14:34
Of the entire year .
14:35
Of the entire year .
14:36
This is the last , and that's not just a joke till the end
14:38
of December oh yeah , it's a year . No , like
14:40
you actually don't have a market now until Until
14:44
the next time Like . May or something
14:46
right . Yeah , that's when they start up again .
14:48
They started like April , april
14:51
, mayish , so I don't have
14:53
another market planned for a while
14:55
. I tried
14:57
and failed multiple times
14:59
to get to school .
15:04
Yeah , student loans suck
15:06
.
15:06
Yeah , student loans suck , bureaucracy
15:08
sucks , fuck
15:10
the system .
15:13
And now we're . Now you're just going to
15:15
get like a job .
15:16
Now I have to get another job .
15:18
Thanks , I'm just gonna I'm just gonna try
15:20
and pay as many bills as I can . You're just gonna save
15:22
like over half of what you make
15:24
. That's how you're
15:26
gonna pay for school now , because
15:29
student loans aren't gonna fucking work .
15:31
Yeah , apparently . Oh , I'm also gonna
15:33
try to get my MET card . I've
15:36
been going to therapy . Anyway , my
15:38
therapist and I are working on it , because my therapist
15:40
is not pressuring me into doing it , because
15:43
I will not do it if people continue
15:45
to pressure me into it . I
15:49
mean , it's a it's a matter of okay . This
15:52
is the reason my therapist and I are doing it is
15:55
because it's a matter of my
15:57
perception of my identity .
15:59
Okay .
16:02
So if I'm being pressured into getting my
16:04
my card , um
16:06
, it's
16:09
like they're pressuring me into the
16:13
culture that I'm not ready to be
16:15
a part of yet , you
16:18
know .
16:21
I just don't understand how your brain works sometimes
16:23
.
16:24
My brain sucks .
16:25
I don't , I don't , I don't get your logic
16:27
at all , to be honest with you , but you know
16:29
what I'll let you have that do it
16:31
when you need to do it . I don't really care , but
16:34
do what you need to do , I don't think our kids can ever get one
16:36
yeah . We'll
16:40
go to Manitoba before they're born . It'll be fine
16:43
, have
16:47
them born in Manitoba Hospital and
16:50
they'll have all the special Manitoba rights , which
16:54
will mean nothing when we come back here
16:56
. But that's okay .
17:00
I don't know how I feel about that .
17:03
No , it's a stupid fucking idea .
17:09
But just like honey , I'm in labor . Cool
17:11
, we need to fly to Manitoba let's go .
17:14
We're gonna go fucking hard .
17:17
Just ask your boss to borrow his plane
17:19
.
17:21
His plane wouldn't make it .
17:22
We need to get like uh uh
17:26
, helicopter to Edmonton
17:28
and a plane we need to plan
17:30
when this baby will be born , so that we're at we're
17:33
in Manitoba at the time , because
17:35
you know this baby as if we're pregnant
17:38
. We're not pregnant . This isn't our way of telling
17:40
you . I promise it will
17:42
be our way of telling you when it happens , though
17:44
.
17:46
Yeah , we're gonna be as like cryptic as possible
17:48
.
17:49
Yeah , we're just . It's gonna be cryptic
17:51
, it's gonna be on our podcast , so
17:53
that only people who listen to our podcast
17:56
know that we're pregnant .
17:59
Yeah , anyway .
18:00
We won't tell anybody else . Anyway
18:09
, we're gonna be in Winnipeg .
18:13
What ? Why were
18:15
you in Winnipeg I ?
18:17
don't know if that's the closest airport that I can think
18:19
of .
18:20
I have Brandon . Probably
18:23
I'd rather go to Brandon Anyway
18:26
.
18:30
I've done a lot of art . I got a sunlight lamp because
18:33
the sunshine goes away way
18:35
too fast . This
18:37
has been 20 minutes of us having like fun
18:39
. I feel like we're talking to like people that
18:43
like we haven't talked to in forever
18:45
and we're just trying to catch up .
18:48
Yeah .
18:49
You know , yeah . Sorry
18:52
, we're being so laid back and stuff
18:54
like it's why it's been a
18:56
week .
18:57
Why do you think they care ?
18:59
They didn't care , they wouldn't be listening .
19:02
Yeah , exactly , I'm
19:06
not sorry at all , to be clear . I'm
19:08
not sorry , alicia , I'm not .
19:14
Life has been fun lately
19:16
yes . I had a mental
19:18
breakdown over my lizard .
19:21
Yeah , that was weird .
19:23
My friends are concerned .
19:27
That was really fucking weird .
19:29
My friends think I should go on a stress leave
19:31
.
19:32
From what I don't know . I
19:36
don't know how you could go on a stress leave because you barely
19:38
work .
19:39
I know .
19:40
Guess just just hang out and be a hermit who
19:42
do nothing . Is that your stress ? Leave
19:44
I guess . So hanging
19:47
out in my terrarium with my how
19:51
is your routine even change At
19:55
this point ?
19:57
You just hang out with my daylight lamp
20:00
in my little terrarium of a room
20:02
actually , you know what that might help , because
20:04
we just got your daylight lamp . Yeah .
20:07
So maybe that'll help . I Also
20:10
made you go on a walk with me . Well , the Sun was out
20:12
, so that should help too . Sun
20:17
is not anymore . It goes down at like 430
20:19
Sucks . It's not
20:21
even the shortest day of the year .
20:23
It's not even the shortest day of the year
20:25
, yet .
20:25
We've got 10 more days , of days getting
20:27
shorter not even . No
20:30
, it's more than that .
20:31
It's 12 .
20:33
Yeah , it's more than 10 . You got 12 more days of this
20:35
11 , 12 , something
20:37
like that . It's more than 20 first , and what's
20:39
day the ninth ? Yeah , yeah
20:42
, yeah
20:44
, 12 days I . Could
20:46
do math 12
20:48
more days of Days
20:51
getting shorter .
20:52
Shorter , and then after that we're
20:55
over the hump .
20:56
By the way , the Sun doesn't come up until like
20:58
830 either , so
21:01
it's like up at 830 , down at 430
21:04
not even . That's
21:07
about right . It's like 420 now it
21:09
will be 420 by like the
21:12
21st of December I .
21:15
Wonder what time the sunset today ? It
21:22
is currently negative five , that's
21:25
not sunset was at 435
21:27
this afternoon .
21:29
Hooray .
21:35
And it is pretty much
21:37
a new moon new moon it's
21:40
like I like new moon Ewwoo
21:43
, ewwoo . It's at illumination
21:46
10% .
21:48
What the fuck does that mean ? It's
21:51
only illuminated 10% oh
21:55
, like the amount that you can actually see . Yeah
21:57
, oh , gotcha
22:01
yeah you
22:04
know , it's funny when you can see the moon in the day
22:06
, it's always a full moon .
22:12
That's a lie . I've seen it cross it man . I
22:15
haven't , I have . Then
22:17
again , I pay attention to the moon more than you do
22:19
. It's funny , because you don't
22:22
even know where the moon is . Half the time I'm
22:24
like , hey , look at the moon and you're like looking
22:26
like over here , like
22:29
the moon will be in front of your face and you'll
22:31
be like looking behind you .
22:33
I just look at it and I'm like what do you want , moon , go
22:37
away , go home .
22:39
Oh , I need to be here right now . What
22:41
happened for you oh . Well
22:44
, that's basically my life .
22:46
Well , I've been going to work and playing hockey
22:49
and that's more or less what's been
22:51
happening . I was , I was
22:53
working on my motorcycle when you came down . You're
22:55
like we have to record and
22:57
I was like okay , so
23:00
I got on this hockey team . The team I was on
23:02
last year is defunct at least it
23:04
is for this year is . Is
23:06
disbanded disbanded
23:09
so I was like in a scramble to find another
23:11
team .
23:11
When your cousin messages you like
23:13
which one it
23:16
was a joke like oh .
23:21
I , I would have gotten that if we weren't recording
23:23
, but because he said that was like what , I
23:26
threw me off anyway , yeah
23:30
. So I joined the team and when I joined the team , they're
23:32
like oh , you have to be okay with
23:34
sharing the crease with a couple other guys . And
23:36
I was like , yeah , that's all right , just don't make me play out . And
23:38
he was like okay , and then I
23:40
play my first game and
23:43
I'm thinking , okay , well , I've got a , you know
23:45
, I'll share now . And like no one else wants to play
23:48
now . And Then
23:50
, like a couple of games ago
23:52
, I was like so when do I have to ? Like let
23:54
someone else play ? And they're like , oh , you're just our full-time
23:56
goalie now . We're
24:00
not , we're not fucking playing , those fucking dumbasses
24:02
now . But
24:04
I guess those other guys like they play out to
24:07
and goalie , they basically just swapped
24:09
it out whenever . But
24:12
yeah , I guess everyone's just decided hey , no
24:15
, let carver take the net like somebody
24:17
who's you know Capable
24:20
Fucking .
24:22
Do this shit .
24:23
Well , someone who doesn't full-time , so
24:25
I'm now the full-time goalie full-time
24:28
goalie . And the team
24:30
is called the moose moose . And
24:34
it also appears that the
24:36
If
24:39
I'm still on this team , next year I'm gonna order a jersey
24:41
with my name on it , which is cool .
24:46
Ooh , instead of what is it now
24:48
Appleton ?
24:52
No , appleton is a player on the Winnipeg
24:54
Jets . Yeah , but
24:56
yours says something similar says Applebee
24:58
, although
25:01
my other one's just a generic one without a
25:03
name on it , so I prefer when we wear that one . We
25:06
have a white and a blue Anyway
25:09
. Anyway it's also cool
25:11
because , like the new pads I got last year were
25:13
blue and now my team like matches
25:16
it . Really hot and
25:18
I'm like huh , never had matching pads with the team
25:20
before , so I'm so
25:22
you know that's an advantage of the team I'm on now
25:24
and
25:27
We've so far managed
25:29
to tie one game .
25:31
I know you guys are so great I .
25:34
Think the only reason that game was tied is cuz like
25:36
none of our really good players showed up for
25:38
it . Like Our
25:41
best goal scorer currently has issues
25:44
, like he needs surgery or something , so
25:47
he's understandably
25:50
not able to play , and we're like seriously
25:52
missing him because he's , like you
25:55
know , really good at scoring goals
25:57
and we just can't get any goals right now . But
26:00
the tie was one one .
26:02
Have you won games yet ?
26:04
No , not yet . Not
26:08
yet , I'm sure we will
26:10
. We have to win at least one or two games this year
26:12
, though , because , like , when the team shows
26:14
up and the Good guys show up , show up , the team
26:16
is good . It's just the only time that
26:19
those guys have showed up We've been also
26:21
playing against like the best teams in the league
26:23
.
26:24
Keep in mind , this is beer league .
26:27
Yeah .
26:29
It's a shit show either way .
26:31
Yeah , you know , in Edmundton there's actually like
26:33
a , b and C beer leagues and
26:35
shit , like there's some pretty sick beer
26:37
leagues in Edmundton Anyway
26:39
.
26:44
Speaking of hockey . That's what we came
26:46
here to talk to y'all about yes
26:48
, that's what the episode's about 28
26:51
minutes in oops .
26:53
It's . We needed another topic as
26:56
well , and I guess we
26:58
filled in the time anyway , so let's go .
27:00
All right ? Um , okay , so the
27:02
Oilers are doing better than
27:04
they were .
27:05
Oh , fuck the Oiler . Okay , the
27:08
Oilers is like a tale of two teams this
27:11
year , like it
27:17
was so painful , it was so
27:19
bad .
27:21
They lose , was it ?
27:23
8-1 against Vancouver in the first game
27:25
and it's like , well , that
27:27
kind of sucks , okay . And then the
27:29
second game , they lose again , although they they
27:31
like heavily outplay Vancouver . But Vancouver's
27:34
backup goalie becomes fucking Patrick
27:36
Waugh Per a game although
27:39
he's been pretty good , I guess and
27:41
then they just lose , and they lose , and they lose
27:43
, and they lose , and then , and at one point
27:46
I'm like , why do I even fucking watch this team right
27:48
now ?
27:49
Everyone said the both
27:51
me and my sister are like damn , we're gonna
27:53
have to start cheering for another team .
27:56
Well , well , that's where the other
27:58
half of this comes in , because now , now
28:01
, like my favorite team is the Jets , not necessarily
28:03
the Oilers , so
28:05
I was . I was watching Jets games as well
28:07
, and the Jets have actually been really fucking good
28:09
this year . Oh like
28:12
One of the best
28:14
teams in the league levels of good
28:16
, which is pretty amazing considering
28:19
what was happening last year , when the
28:21
whole team was imploding after the playoff
28:23
.
28:24
Yeah , when the whole team basically just fucked
28:26
off .
28:27
Well , yeah , last
28:30
year Winnipeg had an issue with a lot of guys who
28:32
like did not want to play in Winnipeg and
28:37
it
28:39
had seriously like affected
28:41
the team's culture and really
28:43
it's I
28:46
don't know . It's like uh , like the team
28:49
chemistry was all off and they kind
28:51
of yeah , they weren't that great , but
28:54
then they got rid of all the guys like Blake
28:56
Wheeler and Pierre-Luc Dubois
28:59
who wanted to , who wanted out of Winnipeg
29:01
, got some pretty good returns
29:03
for them . And this
29:05
year they're like fuck , they're pretty
29:07
good , like
29:11
uh , like I said , one of the best teams in the
29:13
league right now , the second best team in Canada
29:15
, although I'm guessing
29:18
they're probably going to overtake Vancouver
29:20
at some point , because Vancouver slowed down a lot and
29:23
they beat Colorado last night
29:25
, which is like a pretty big
29:27
deal , because Colorado is like a
29:30
pretty dangerous team .
29:32
So I
29:35
was like I don't
29:38
know , I don't watch most
29:40
of the games because hockey just stresses me out
29:42
. Yeah , um , I get way
29:44
too into it , you're
29:46
way too attached , and
29:49
it just I just get disappointed , it disappointed
29:52
.
29:52
Yeah .
29:53
Because every time I seem to watch a Noether's game
29:55
, uh , they
29:57
lose . I've stopped
29:59
watching .
30:00
Well , losing is one thing . The way Edmonton was losing
30:03
at the beginning , though , was like so pathetic
30:05
, like they just like
30:07
the goalies couldn't save shit , they
30:10
couldn't score , they , they
30:12
, they start losing the game and they just
30:14
lay down and die . You
30:16
know that's what would happen . Oh my God , david
30:19
and dry sidle were like Casper the friendly
30:21
ghosts they're
30:24
. You'd watch it and
30:26
there'd be so many like Edmonton would
30:28
have so many great A chances and they'd
30:30
fucking miss the net . The puck would
30:32
bounce like they had no puck luck
30:34
. You're just watching this like their
30:37
statistic . Up until last night , it's
30:40
like they had six games where they score
30:43
, where they shot over 40 shots , and
30:45
every or no what it was is every
30:47
game Edmonton got more than 40 shots
30:49
. They lost , and
30:54
they would like they'd lose and
30:56
they'd shoot like twice
30:59
or sometime , or I think at least one
31:01
time three times as much the other team . They still fucking
31:03
lose . And
31:05
then , of course , they were . They lost the San Jose
31:08
sharks .
31:09
That was rough .
31:12
Thankfully not the first team to lose the
31:14
San Jose sharks , Although
31:17
I would say in hindsight it's probably
31:19
the best thing that could have happened . This
31:22
is a bit of a wake up call , I think . It
31:26
was like that because after they lost to San Jose
31:28
. That's when they started coming back . They
31:30
won the next game . Fire
31:33
the head coach . Most people agree
31:35
it wasn't the head coach's fault
31:37
, but Whatever
31:41
Anyway , so they
31:43
do that , and ever since then they've
31:46
been like pretty damn good Hell yeah
31:48
. They're almost back
31:50
up to 500 and like
31:53
500 being winning percent . So
31:56
they've won 11 , lost 12 at this point
31:58
. But until they lost to San
32:00
Jose they had lost like seven in a row or something . That
32:02
was so fucking bad . And
32:06
then and McDavid was injured . He
32:08
doesn't appear to be injured anymore because
32:10
he's got like 20 points
32:13
in nine games or something and
32:17
thankfully Vancouver
32:19
has started to Not
32:24
be so good . Vancouver was like
32:26
red hot at the beginning of the season , but they're there . They're
32:28
not as good anymore . I don't know why
32:30
, but they just can't seem
32:32
to win as many games as they used to , which is good , because I hate
32:34
Vancouver and
32:37
I
32:41
remember , uh
32:44
, were we watching a Calgary
32:47
versus Vancouver game . Which
32:50
one was that ?
32:51
And I was like this is the first time I've ever cheered for
32:53
the flames .
32:55
Oh , I always cheer for the flames in the regular season . I
33:00
want both Edmonton and Calgary to do good
33:02
so they face each other in the playoffs .
33:04
Yeah .
33:05
It's the best thing . It's the best case scenario . I don't
33:07
know why more people like people
33:09
care so much about which team is better
33:11
in the regular season . It's
33:14
like I don't care about the regular season , I want to , I care
33:16
about the playoffs . And if
33:19
they play each other in the playoffs , that's just more
33:21
entertaining for me . So
33:23
I wouldn't I cheer for Calgary in the regular season
33:25
. Vancouver
33:28
I've just hated since 2011 for
33:31
various reasons .
33:34
Yeah .
33:36
And yeah
33:44
, she had
33:46
. Edmonton is a .
33:49
On fire preferably .
33:50
I think they've won six in a row now . Yeah
33:53
, maybe seven . It might be seven after
33:55
last night , but , like geez
33:58
, last night they looked like they were going to lose the game for a while
34:00
. But they , you know , they seem to
34:02
have this like resiliency . Now they
34:06
can score goals again . Their , their defense
34:08
is actually like showing up for the most
34:10
part and
34:13
Stuart
34:15
Skinner is also remembered how to play , which
34:18
is all you know , kind of coincided
34:20
with Edmonton doing better . Hyman's
34:24
got two hat tricks this season now
34:26
and
34:29
I think half of his goals are assisted by McDavid
34:31
, so he's probably
34:34
pretty happy he's playing with him right now , because he's like
34:36
man . If I play with him he just gets me the puck and I
34:38
just fucking fired into the net . Call
34:40
it good , call it great . And
34:46
I think Hyman's actually got the most
34:48
goals for the Oilers right now . They usually
34:50
got more goals than dry-side .
34:55
Good job .
34:56
Yeah , winnipeg
35:01
has just been consistently good . Like
35:04
beginning
35:06
of the season was interesting because their
35:08
goalies really weren't playing that well which
35:10
is usually one of Winnipeg's best performers
35:14
but like once , uh once
35:18
, hellebuck started playing like himself again
35:20
. It's like they're they've just
35:22
been like a really
35:25
solid team and
35:28
they've beat some really good teams and they've
35:30
been I think they're
35:32
on their own like four
35:34
or five game winning streak . Now See
35:39
how things are looking pretty good for our teams .
35:42
Let's talk about the Las Vegas
35:45
Golden Knights , though . Why
35:47
? Because they're the top of
35:49
the Pacific Division right now . Yeah , they're
35:52
doing pretty fucking good .
35:55
Well , you'd hope so they just won the cup . Yeah
35:57
, They've
35:59
been well . Vegas is weird because
36:01
they they were amazing at the
36:03
beginning of the season , but
36:06
they've been like having
36:09
trouble lately , like a lot of trouble lately
36:11
, Like all of a sudden they can't score
36:13
goals anymore and they've
36:15
been losing a lot of games .
36:17
Yeah , let's
36:19
talk about how
36:22
fucking the Blackhawks
36:24
, who are the
36:26
bottom of the Central Division right now in
36:28
the Western Conference , yeah , and
36:31
they acquired the hottest draft
36:36
pick of the year .
36:38
Several years since McDavid , yeah .
36:40
Yeah , like they're
36:42
doing pretty bad .
36:45
Well , yeah , they only have one fucking player right
36:47
now and
36:51
it's called her Bidard and
36:54
he's now Conor . Baddard
36:56
is actually doing pretty fucking amazing
36:58
because he has no support whatsoever
37:00
on the Blackhawks , Like
37:03
none . Taylor Hall got injured
37:05
and he's just
37:08
by himself and he's still like . He's
37:10
like putting up highlight real goals and
37:12
shit Like a few . Get his
37:14
first couple of games . You know he's getting used to the
37:16
NHL a bit shaky , but
37:18
now he's got his swagger and he's
37:20
just Been a fucking menace . But
37:24
he's the only guy on that fucking team . And
37:29
then there's the Cory Perry thing with the
37:31
Blackhawks , which was . I
37:34
mean , the memes were funny .
37:36
What happened with that ? I saw that .
37:38
Okay , so the meme , the meme is
37:40
the meme . Cory Perry slept
37:42
with Conor Baddard's mom . Oh my
37:44
god and that was the rumor and
37:46
people were making fun of it . It's not true . It's
37:48
not true at all , but it's just
37:51
, I mean , kind of funny .
37:55
Isn't that his head coach ?
37:57
No , Cory Perry's like one of the was
37:59
one of the big stars on the Blackhawks for a long
38:02
time . He's like a veteran player
38:04
. I think he's almost 40 years old , so
38:07
so the joke was he slept with Conor Baddard's
38:09
mom and that's why he's off the team
38:11
. But Uh no , that's
38:13
not what happened . That is not what
38:15
happened . Um , he's
38:18
off for another reason . I don't think they've ever released
38:20
the reason . This will
38:22
make yet another . This is yet another Blackhawks
38:24
controversy not as not
38:27
as serious as the last one , but Still
38:30
pretty bad . And now a lot of people
38:32
are speculating Conor Baddard is probably going
38:34
to try and get out of Chicago because
38:37
that team's Culture
38:40
is still so fucked up .
38:42
But yeah the
38:47
Bruins , the Maple Leafs
38:49
. They're saving some lives this
38:51
year .
38:52
What do you mean ?
38:53
They're fourth in the Atlantic Division .
38:57
It's not good for for them .
38:59
That's better than not .
39:01
Toronto is the same issue as Edmonton
39:03
. They they're like all offense and nothing else
39:05
, Although Edmonton's been
39:07
turning it around and I haven't watched much Toronto
39:10
. But Other people are
39:12
complaining about more points than the Oilers do
39:14
well , yeah , but they
39:17
never had like an awful start the way the Oilers
39:20
did . They've
39:23
sort of just been consistently mediocre Like
39:28
they never . They they've never been as bad as the
39:30
Oilers were , but , as my understanding is , they've
39:32
never been as good as the Oilers are right now either
39:35
. Mother
39:37
team is kind of has a lot of the same issues
39:39
.
39:44
Well , if they make it to the playoffs , they'll be saving some
39:46
lives .
39:47
The Bruins unfortunately seem
39:49
to be on their way for another president's trophy . So
39:52
Rip Bruins fans , I'm sorry
39:55
to hear that .
39:59
Rip Bruins fans .
40:01
Although I personally want the
40:03
Golden Knights to win the president's trophy . That
40:06
would be the ideal scenario , in my opinion , but
40:09
you
40:12
know , boston wants to keep
40:14
being good , despite
40:16
losing all their good players every
40:18
year . Boston's gonna suck , oh yeah , but
40:20
they're going down this year . No , boston's
40:23
one of the best teams again , okay
40:25
. Well , what about the playoffs
40:27
, which is really Boston's
40:31
fucking problem ?
40:33
They're like holy shit , we made it to the playoffs
40:35
. And then they're like holy shit
40:38
, we made it to the Playoffs
40:40
. Please stop , oh my god .
40:41
They're like we made it to the playoffs , lost in the first round
40:43
. Yay , the
40:47
best team in hockey history losing
40:49
the first round of the Florida Panthers . You
40:53
know , like , like
40:58
it happens , I mean
41:00
Boston when Boston won
41:02
the cup against Vancouver , the
41:06
joke was that , uh , van Koen , it wasn't
41:08
so much that Boston was better than Vancouver
41:10
, it's that Vancouver out choked Boston
41:12
, because Boston
41:15
is like one of the worst playoff chokers
41:17
Like
41:19
ever and Vancouver is also
41:21
one of the worst playoff chokers , at
41:23
least that team back then was . So
41:26
it was like oh , who's gonna
41:28
lose it ? And , yeah
41:30
, vancouver out choked Boston , which
41:32
at this point I'm happy happened . At the time
41:34
I really wanted Vancouver to win , but
41:36
now In hindsight
41:39
in hindsight I'm like nah , you
41:41
know , they like , they fucking like the riot
41:43
.
41:44
Yeah , they have a big riot . All
41:48
the fans were like destroying
41:50
cars and shit .
41:51
Yeah , and all the fans are douchebags
41:53
and I hate them and yeah
41:58
, anyway , anyway
42:01
, yeah , this is the .
42:03
I don't think David might not get the
42:05
. What
42:08
is it called ?
42:09
Which one ?
42:10
Vezena .
42:12
No , he wouldn't get the Vezena not the
42:14
best seeing as he's not a fucking goal .
42:16
Sorry , I don't remember their names
42:18
.
42:19
Which one are you ? He won a lot of trophies
42:21
last year the , the the
42:24
. Taylor , what's
42:28
the trophy for ?
42:29
the MVP .
42:31
Playoff at your MVP . Yeah
42:34
, he might get that one .
42:36
What's it called ?
42:38
Are you talking about MVP ? Are you talking about the scoring
42:40
one ? Yeah , which one ?
42:42
I don't know , he's just
42:44
the best player in the NHL .
42:46
MVP . Yeah he
42:48
could get the MVP . Actually , I could
42:50
still see him getting the MVP , just
42:52
because you know he was injured . Now
42:55
, all of a sudden , he's .
42:56
Miraculously cured .
42:59
I mean , it took a while for him to become miraculously
43:02
cured , but yeah , he's playing like himself
43:04
again . No
43:06
, he's probably not going to get the rocket , richard , although
43:08
I wasn't expecting him to , because
43:10
mcdavid's not really a goal scorer
43:13
, he's more
43:15
of a playmaker , you
43:18
know . Hence hymen getting two hat tricks
43:20
, pretty much all assisted by him . Not
43:25
right now the uh , it
43:28
seems like either austin matthews is going to get
43:30
it . Weirdly enough , kyle Conner Is
43:32
in that conversation , which I'm
43:34
happy about .
43:36
But he
43:38
thinks getting the besna .
43:42
Aidan hill .
43:45
I would think it'd be hella buck again .
43:47
No , I don't think it's going to be
43:49
hella buck this year , because
43:52
, while I still think he's the
43:54
best goalie in the league , typically
43:57
goalies that play on Not
44:01
as good a teams don't win it because
44:04
their numbers aren't so insanely high
44:06
. But
44:09
you know , it's
44:12
fine . It's
44:15
all right , though , because Aidan
44:17
hill is like , probably , if
44:21
he keeps it up and he keeps playing like this
44:23
, because he was like amazing in the playoffs , a lot of people
44:25
thought , well , he's going to go back to earth in the Next
44:30
season , because oftentimes what happens is guys
44:32
just going runs in the playoffs Doesn't seem to be
44:34
the case . It seems to be that Aidan
44:36
hill is the real deal now and Just working in Vegas , which is
44:38
good , because they're
44:43
like no good Canadian goalies in the NHL right now . So
44:49
we could really use one if best
44:51
on best tournament happens again . So I'm happy , hell
44:53
yeah . Actually
44:59
, most of the guys that I figured would win it , like you see , sarah O'Cerlea
45:01
, sorokin have been struggling and
45:03
Shisterkin hasn't been putting up as
45:05
good a numbers
45:08
as quick
45:10
in New York , which is really surprising . But
45:12
yeah
45:15
, leon
45:19
, dry saddle still , babe . Oh
45:21
yeah , he scored a really nice goal
45:24
.
45:24
Last night actually he scored a really nice
45:27
goal last night .
45:28
He scored a really nice goal last night actually in
45:32
his office classic . It's
45:35
a classic dry saddle school .
45:41
Wow .
45:43
Nuge has been scoring goals too .
45:46
Nuge .
45:47
Yeah , why
45:51
are you looking at me like that ? Don't
45:54
tell me you forgot about nudge .
46:06
I think that's it .
46:08
It's it for us , that's our update .
46:10
That's our update repainting
46:13
Watching the NHL is painful
46:15
.
46:17
Not anymore . It's been pretty good for me . It's
46:20
been pretty good for me , especially because the Oilers actually
46:22
started winning .
46:24
Yeah , keep it up , mc David
46:26
. All right
46:28
, bye , bye you
46:56
