  • The show I didn’t know was missing in my life.

    I’m not in or from Edmonton so I didn’t even know about the show until just before it launched as a podcast. Now this has become a regular listen for me. I sometimes laugh so hard that I am in tears! Definitely worth a listen, even if you aren’t an Oilers or Elks fan.
