It wouldn&#8217;t be a Monday afternoon without a fresh episode of Real Life to massage your earholes and help you get into the rest of the work week.
The skeleton crew kicked off the Monday episode by complaining about the co-hosts not being in attendance for the podcast. If there&#8217;s one thing the boys are good at, it&#8217;s piling on their teammates when they&#8217;re not there to defend themselves. Getting back to business, however, the conversation turned to <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2024/10/26/oilers-dominate-the-penguins-to-a-4-0-finish-and-it-could-have-been-so-much-worse-than-that/">Friday&#8217;s win over the Pittsburgh Penguins</a> and how it was a big night on the ice and after the game.
After the game on Friday, the Oilers added Craig MacTavish and Randy Gregg&#8217;s names to the Ring of Honour, which led to a conversation about some of our favourite memories of those two players. Wanye then told a story about writing a letter to Dr. Gregg when he was a kid, and how the former Cup winner actually took the time to write him back and how meaningful that letter was to a young hockey fan.
Changing gears, the podcast discussed a wide range of topics, from the Lil Durk arrest to food trucks to the World Series to bad tribute statues and everything in between. Starting with the state of hip hop, the guys walked through the insanity of the Lil Durk arrest and how some of these rappers just can&#8217;t escape the lifestyle. We then discussed the Dwayne Wade statue reveal from this past weekend, and how it could arguably be one of the worst ones ever made. That led the guys to wonder how much prep the Oilers will have to do to prepare for the McDavid and Draisaitl statues that will hopefully come down the line.
