Hi, you, buddies. Welcome to a very festive edition. Oh, my on-airdight isn't on. Where's Rhett? He's hiding. There is. Yeah, there is. How are we doing, buddies? Yeah. How are you doing?

There's the Nutcracker. Rets, no. Ah, I told you. Don't do that. It's only so many days left. Well, I'm not doing it on air. I'm going to do it at private showing. He's got an only fan's channel where he does Christmas carols with no tarpon. It doesn't do our our watchers and listeners any good.

Well, if you want to see it, you got to sign up only $9.99 a month. That's that new subscription. Keep the change, you filthy animal. Yeah, keep the change. You filthy. I got a pump you full lead. How good is that entry. Boyce.

Did you see that? Did you see that? It seems very professional. It's very, uh, it's my. it's too nice to be ours. Very impressive. Dean wasn't impressed. What's with the candy canes in the closet?

It's a high-end operation. Yeah, that looks pretty janky, Dean. I've got to be honest. You might be trying too hard. Maybe. Perhaps I'll have to let the lights and things. Are those the ones that you can't resist? They are.

What's the difference? Yeah. Just got a mitt full of them all around me at all times. Why do you like them? I don't know. I don't like peppermint necessarily. I don't either. I don't know.

Maybe it's just my, you know what? It could be my brain playing tricks on me. But I think I like them because it's Christmas. Because I like Christmas, you know. Maybe it's one of those. You're very joyful around the Christmas season for more sure. I am. I feel it today.

Yeah, his heart has grown three sizes. Yep. My kids say I like two things, Christmas and dogs. They're probably right. Oh. Because I like Christmas more than any other time of year, and I like dogs more than any human that I know. Right and I always thought you like being miserable,

but does that count? That's just an involuntary thing. That's just it comes. You don't aspire to that. No. I have my new mug. I told I was going to have my new mug. There's my elf mug.

Oh, that's a good one. I like that one. Yeah, no wonder you're in such good mood. That's a great mug. And there you go on the back. Hey? I'm a cottonheaded ninny muggins. Oh, yeah.

No. You're not a cotton-headed-headed ninnie muggins. You're just special. So I'm the list, Dean. We're going to watch it. You should fill it with something good and really pick up your spirits. Yeah, it's just coffee. You know, I was thinking about this because there's only so many days left,

eh, till Monday, right, is Hawaiian shirt day. Something like that. And so that leaves today, tomorrow. Saturday, Sunday. You don't want to be doing anything Sunday. Saturday is going to be chaos, which leaves kind of today and tomorrow, except from the sounds of things,

we're going to be really drunk and not able to do anything. This drinky show is kind of, or everything else is getting in the way, but I kind of have some stuff to do. And I'm going to be plastered. You go into PA early in the month, and now this show, I mean, you've really tightened the runway on getting shit done for Christmas.

I really have. Yeah, I really have. I had to go out and do some shopping last night, getting some groceries bought in that. You don't like buying stuff this far away because it's still a few days, but what are you going to do? When you need that almond nog,

you got to get your almond oat nog. It's oat nog. I forget to sit in the fridge. I can go and grab it. Maybe for the drinking show I'll have. Clearly it's that good that it's still. Yeah, I'm just dying to tear into it. Man, it's a Calgary Flamed.

game day, get your helmets on or your elf hats or whatever you got. Yep. As the Calgary Flames, yes, back in the, where they have not won since 1979, the Anaheim pond. No, it's not the Arrowhead Pond nor the Honda Center horrors. It's just a range. The House of Horrors. It's fine there.

The House of Horrors. Heist. Into the heise of horrors. Both teams coming in on two game winning streams. something's got to give. Something has got to give. That's right. Yeah.

Talks at one, two in a row, huh? Do you want to hear how their season went, how it's gone for them? Yes. They keep flying out of the gate, Dino. Real good out of the gates, I heard. One and four to start the year. No, that's not good out of the gates. That's terrible.

Hang on, hang on. One and four to start the year. Then six game winning streak and one, they won eight of the three. 10. That's better. Rolling. Then they lost eight in a row. Oh. And 12 of their next 13.

They went a month between regulation victories. My kids have started doing the Peter Griffin. Yeah. Yeah, that was Ray Ferraro. And Greg Cronin, what is his name? Something like that. Yeah. Painful.

So good start. You know what? then they've had some guys banged up. They, uh, Mason McTavish is out. He's day to day with an upper body injury. Zegris has missed 18 games. Jamie Drysdale, 28 games. Isaac Lundestrum has a torn Achilles.

He's been out basically the whole season. So they're a little, they're a little, uh, dinged up for sure. They're also not good. That's the other part of this. Well, but here's the thing. You like kids. Well, I got lots of kids. Yeah.

Like young players retro? Yeah. All about the youth. You would love this Anaheim Ducks team. Leo Carlson was drafted this past year. He's already playing. He's 18. He's a stud.

Kick it ass. Yeah. Pavel Mintyukoff is playing. He's 19. A lot of points on the blue line. Tristan Luno is 19. He's going to the Canadian World Junior team. All right.

Lulu. Mason McTavish is 20. Jamie Drysdale, 21. Zegress, 22. Jackson Lecombe, 22. Lundstrom, 24. So that's no problem playing these young boys. And all of them are playing minutes.

Yeah. They, of course, brought in a couple vets to help show everyone. Getsy. Got to be jerks. Not Getsy. No. Former Tampa Bay Lightning. Alex.

Clorn. Clorn. And then another Floridian, that ball of muck, Radco Gudas. They gave him a big deal as well. They overpaid. They said, screw it. We got cap space. We're going to show these young punks how to

play the right way. They also have that, was that Ross Johnston? I think I saw him there, the big, former Islander tough guy. The big Islander dude. Yeah. Well, I mean, Ducks used to have Deloree. They don't mind having someone like that around. And John gives the still. Yeah, he,

what was the name of the, because he was sick. He couldn't play, I think it was in Detroit. Lucas Dostel's the backup, but they also have some other guys too. Yeah. So Lucas Dostal was in net for the win the other night. their backup golden goaltender was named Callie Clang Oh the Clangers

Remember that show When your kids were like zero Clangers was a that's a hell of a show So he was The kids say I don't like it Like screw it, this is a good one We're watching this one Yeah

They have eight players going to the world juniors this year They are all about How do you have a team if they got eight players Going World Juniors? Well it's prospects not off the roster Yeah one guy to one second round of the U.S. Thanks, Ryan.

Yeah. Well, see, right, they're not playing at the moment. No, but you'd even said earlier that Luono guy, whatever. I thought the only Canadian that had been loaned from an NHL team was Potris. Maybe I'm wrong. He played seven games. Yeah, so he probably went down before the 10-game threshold, right? They had a stat.

I was looking in their game notes. Not since it was when McKinnon, I think it was the McKinnon when he broke in. They had four guys in the same game get points, all of them under the age of 20. in the same game. And that kid was one of them. So I don't know what to expect tonight, but I don't know either. I do have an idea in my Betway bets coming up.

Overlooking the ducks. The ducks are going to win this game. I'm sorry to report. First game back after a road trip, Rhett. They went to New York, Islanders, Rangers, Jersey, Detroit, and they came home. They haven't played since Monday. They don't know about it.

They don't have a clue where they are. They just play. They're kids. Young and dumb and full of their brains haven't even got into 24 when Rhett says. His brains aren't developed. That's right. Soft heads. It's Pavel Minyakov.

He doesn't know where the hell he is. He doesn't know shit. Yes. It's true. It's probably picking his boogers and eating them on stage at a Christmas concert. He doesn't have a clue what's going on. He's a moron. He doesn't know his arse from a hole in the ground.

This is the seventh, eighth youngest team of the NHL. think it's a couple of the vets. Eight youngest? Who the hell's the youngest? They got some young guys. They got some old goats kind of dragging them down. They do. Like Adam Henrique and the Goudis and Cologne.

You know who's still playing for them? Jacob Silferberg. Oh, baby. He was traded for Bobby Ryan a hundred years ago. Rhett? Silverberg. Come on, Rhett.

Silverberg. It's Christmas time. I'm in the city. Pubic hair. Gray. Pubic hair. Yeah, he's an old dude. Helfareg.

Huh? Yonk. Tilsenberg. Stompat-Tomba-Tomba-Tong. Back still. I hear that word. Buffalo's the youngest, believe it or not, Rhett. Oh, yeah, sure.

And they're not good either. No. So maybe there's such a thing as too young. Is that potentially a thing? Oh, I think that's safe to say. the youngest seven, six teams aren't in the playoffs. Arizona's young. They're close.

Chicago's very young. They're bad. Ottawa's very young. They should be good. They're not. Montreal's young. So what would you rather be? Well,

is young and out of the playoffs or old and out of the playoffs? Because there's a few of those teams too. As a team or as a player? I'm the player. I'm a family. Either way. Either way, young is the end. answer whatever it is young what do you want to be young what do you want to be young yeah always

young yeah what's your peak age right what was if you can go back to any age about hockey or doesn't know i've moved on from hockey it's just in general everything let's go what was peak warner age in life not hockey just peak age that could be that age again 17 no not hockey oh still 17 he can't even drink in america Eric had 17. Come on. Oh, yeah. You can. It's got to be at the right place.

I always thought like 27, 28 was the pocket. He'd been hammering Ryan Waters for years by the time he was 17. Didn't we have an awkward question on Ask Rett last week? How old are you when you sip beer? That was something. Had a beer with your dad? Oh, it's five. Crushed one.

Yeah. Five. Yikes. Uh, okay. I guess we've moved on from the hockey game. Eight o'clock start. Ryan Pike and I will have afterburn. That's 10 o'clock my time.

I know, Rhett. That's why you're not doing afterburner. You know what Rett's going to do next year? Just to go doing any afterburners, he's moving to Europe, just to keep getting those times later. I can't do it, boys. It's three in the morning.

What are you doing here? It's a 10 hour difference. I don't know if they were playing these games at three in the morning, it'd be good. That one matinee in Philly, I'm busy, but if it wasn't for that, I'd do that one.

So 8 o'clock is start time. I'm supposed to be off. It's the fricking holidays. Three week break. Is it? Are your kids at school today? 15th of the fourth? We used to be.

Yeah, you had, again, you had the greatest deal going. And hated it. And still hated it. It's kind of ruined you, actually, to be honest. Because now you think you're really in the gulags. That's what ruined me. It wasn't the... I'm happy where we're, where we're,

at. Okay, very good. Origin. Origin brewing. Yes, sir. We, we've said, hey, if you go, if you, if you swing by the tap room in Strathmore at the old origin brewing and malting, the tap room, you walk in there, grab some merch, grab some barn burner blonde, you take a picture, you put it on social media. What are we going to do? We're going to put on the show. And more people have been doing that every single day. We get more and more. Here's from Travis. Travis says the blonde from BK liquor made it safely out to Canmore tonight. I'd love to tell you those are the first blondes hammered in Canmore, but I was there last weekend. Even on that on that landing, that porch, that patio, not the first.

It's a nice setup right there. Isn't that nice? Is that a hotel? What are we doing there? Good job, Travis. What's he got in the left there? What's he got on the left there? Is that some gummies or something?

Those are doth salts. He's just going to really get in. Oh, I see. some molly. I saw the picture. I'm like, are we getting hoodwinked here? Is he really going to put some of a list of drug on the show? I don't know. Is it gum? Is it bath salts?

I don't know what that looks like. It's a blue pill. I don't know. Who knows? Again, it's kind of a greeny blue. It's a knockoff ones. This is Ice man. The old Iceman. Christmas Eve, I finally get to try the new official craft beer of my favorite podcast and YouTube's channel the barn burner of Blondale created by Origin Brewing.

I've already tried their Mexican lager and it is absolutely a maze ball. I highly recommend. So if the ale is simply half as good as that, then I'll be ecstatic. Many thanks to BK. Beaufort liquor for taking my pick since my wife wouldn't come into the store with me.

Another thanks to Flamesnation.com. For providing me with so many larfs, Lairf Pinder argue during the show. Plus Afterburner is fantastic for post game coverage. Top notch info, tamed. Have a great Christmas. Happy New Year's boys. You guys rock.

That's from the Ice Man. That's the quiet majority, Dean. Let Pinder argue. the quiet quiet majority. You're on the show. Outta boy, ice man. Look at all if you saw the picture of his kid. He sent like a hundred foes.

His kid was trying to be the coolest kill on Earth. I loved it. So there's the package. So are we to assume that origin wrapped this in Christmas wrap and sent it? I've seen a few that have been wrapped in Christmas wrapping. Not all of them. So if it's a four pack, I'm thinking no. But if you're getting a flat or two,

they might wrap it for you. Look at how now. You know, these guys, you know, so nice out there. There it is. Oh, that's making me dizzy. Yeah, it is. Make it down there. What's happening here?

Collectors items right here. There you go. Get some in you this holiday season. You can get it to be capable of for liquor. You can grab it, of course, at the tap room. And we had a message there yesterday. Hey, uh, Pinder from our buddy Mark. Well, we got bad news at the studio. We're out.

I've been sending off clients. Yeah. People are sharing the word. We're spreading the knowledge about the BBB. No. But the good news is he's delivering five flats today. Oh, very nice. But he also sent a message.

Shout out to Patrick Cliffey and Dylan at the living room. All the living room is a nice place, Dean. Yeah. Great place to have a home, an origin hometown logger over the holidays. Homegrown. What did I say? Homegrown logger over the holidays or any other time. On the heart of 17th of.

So there you go. They've got an amazing winter. Just talk over me. That's fine. So there you go. Thanks to the living room for coming on. Sorry, Dano. I thought you're done.

No, it's just, it should be used to it by now. I don't know. If you're in studio, it's a leisure. Is it really? Great winter patio. So you've never talked over me. A winter patio. It's easier.

It's the technology. Got it. So grab some, grab some origin this holiday. Grab it. Their merch is great. Raised delivery day. Grab a toque.

Pinders got the shirt on. You look like a frigging lumberjack over there with your origin shirt on. Because I'm so strong and masculine. That's right. I'm so rustic. Definitely not a wimpy inner sitter kid. Where'd you park?

your chainsaw. It's in my holster. That's right. Yeah. Just under the table here. Are we feeling festive? Are we feeling joy? Are we ready for it?

This Friday's getting in the way. There's like a sign I'm so joyful. Yeah. Like joy. The Friday thing is a, it's a pain in the ass. Yeah. But again, like last year, I feel the need

of acceptance. by this is a responsibility that we all have accepted this. I'm going to commit to it and I'm going to get a limo for afterwards and I'm going to drive around like I used to do and deliver gifts to all the people I hate or somewhat. It's a long list with. So tell us about that because that was a thing you did here when. It's a great idea. Okay.

So you get a limo. You get your Santa outfits on, your elves, your reindeer, whatever out. You know, you got to dress up a little bit. maybe some sharp glasses. Rent yourself a limo because you don't want to be drinking and driving, Dean. No, you don't. You can't. It's illegal.

So you fill up that limo with a few drinks. Yeah, you get a big, some people go overboard. I like a big black garbage bag. Yeah. And you go get the randomest shit you can, like big bolognies and maybe some Swiss cheese. turkey pepperoni sticks maybe stop by the by dollarama

scotch tape stapler cream of mushroom soup yeah you got to wrap them individually and every house you stop at everybody gets a gift they get to reach in the bag and bring out there whatever it is and they're just they're so joy

then they have joy they have joy yeah that's what it is yeah and then you get overserved and then your wife drinks too much and acts like an asshole. Oh, geez. We did something similar one time. We had the limel,

but we decided we were going to go caroling. And it started with people we knew. And then we realized that we didn't know that many people, or it was all the way in the other end of the city or whatever it was. So we just started picking random houses and singing. Yeah. And we would pick houses where clearly there was some festive stuff going on. and people would invite you in,

here, have a drink, be merry, that sort of thing. It was fair. It was amazing Christmas spirit. Yeah. You know what? It should be a requirement

for every neighborhood to have that because there's too many jerks out there. We've got to, it's become a community again. And then Bud Kelly puked outside the limo door. Yeah, Bud. Puped just outside the door of the limousine

and we were done for the night. Well, that's okay outside. the door of the limousine. I thought it was on someone front's porch and then the, no, it was, but we realized it was going that way. It's like someone's, there's going to be more of this if we continue. So we just packed it in. It was a great time up till that time. Mary. Good idea, folks. If you can, uh, if you can get her done. If you can get her done.

I highly recommend it. But don't tell people you're doing it, like the people that you're showing up at. Another, a really another good thing to do is to find out, Which relative or friend has an event to get to that night? Oh, they're getting ready. They're all busy. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. And show up there on it.

Oh, it just happened to pop. Oh. Hey. Hey. Hug it out. I got to hug it out. Oh, man. Can I use your bathroom for a sec?

Yeah. And you just overstay. You're welcome. And you can just see the sweat beating on their foreheads going out of them. Do we get rid of these people? Yeah. We really got to go. we got to go.

And they're too polite to be rude, which you need to be to people like us when we're in that state. Now last year, we did holiday spirits on Thursday. Made more sense. Yeah, it's very foggy, Dean. If you tell me that, I'll believe you.

Yeah, it was a Thursday show because I remember the next day, Alberga and Rose Hill were doing their show and talked about it. They were giving a show notes, yeah. Yeah, and they were still doing a Friday show. Innovators, they called us. It's Thursday.

my booze is down just right there. Yeah, I got enough to get me right torqued if we needed to. Today? We can't today. We don't. There's too much shit today. We've sacrificed tomorrow. Saturday's going to be a gong show.

Sunday, Sunday. We've got to get stuff done today. Just saying. Like what? Like what? I'm ready. I'm ready. Chug a lot.

I got it in the holster here. You don't have. have to worry about me. I'm just saying. Has anyone... Beer's not going to get delivered to our clients if I don't not drink. Oh, right. So what preparations have been made for tomorrow? We have a full beer rider,

sorry, an alcohol list that Tim the Boozga and Mandip are collaborating on, two of our favorite humans. Deeper might swing by today. I'll get you up to speak. We started a group chat for all the supplies. Today is also a garnish and mix run day. We've got two coolers, lots of ice, some other spirits. Your lists are amazing. The detail, it's a garnish run.

It's not happening. It's a list or it doesn't happen. I bought a bunch of cups. I got Red Solos out the yinger. We do too. I think Timmy wants to upscale the glass where he says, I got a cooler with extra ice. You're not going to the studio tomorrow?

He better be. Yeah, I am. Yeah. Oh, I'm just like I got some that I'll, yeah. Okay. We've got some new booze that he's reping, some sandbagers, some Palomas, bar towels, lemons, lime shaker, different cups. And then he's asked, is there any food coming? And I said, you know what?

We haven't planned on food, but we should. We should have something arrive around one food-wise, because we're going to be in the bag. What would you like to eat, Dean? Now, here's the thing. The question people will ask is, do you guys, are you guys really doing it? Are you guys really having drinks? The answer is, maybe. I don't know.

Maybe it's a show. Maybe it's real. Maybe it's just for entertainment purposes. Maybe it's AI. Maybe it's AI. Yeah. There's no way to tell. There really is.

And maybe you shouldn't ruin a $100 drunk on a $10 steak. Or the other way around. Right. Yeah. The, um, you can go watch last year's show and it's still on the internet and, uh, make up your own mind. Listen, you know, Leahy was never drunk. He was an actor. That's right.

But he was so good at it. Do you know why he was so good? He earlier in life was an alcoholic and had major issues and he was sober and quit, but he could get into character and go back to that place, which is why Leahy was so phenomenal. Yeah. I've gathered some video for the show tomorrow that we can drop in. What's that?

Kind of video. Sports highlights. Like, Jack, damn? No, I mean, is it... No, he says, uh-huh. Oh, no, there was some video taken at last year's Christmas show. That's all I'm... No, there was no, no.

Okay, no. Thank you. Um, but there's, there's some stuff that I have a feeling that once you're a few deep, might make you giggle. Oh, good. Even more than it might if you haven't had a few. So we'll drop a few, uh, a little special treats in for the show tomorrow. So I have to come in. I have to do anything, Dean.

You're your own boss. Because my wife's off work tomorrow, too. And she can, you know, bring her in. Yes. Well, I just get her in here. Get a limo. Get dressed up. Come, Carol.

There's a convenience factor that you guys could get sidetracked. Oh, yeah. What are you doing on topic? What's happening with you there, Joy. Joy to the world. I see it's on the screen, the hearing loss clinic. The online giveaway, the contest continues. We're going to be doing this.

You know what? We'll do it this week. and then we'll rev up another package in the new year. Of course, hearing loss clinic, I saw, I read an article the other day online. I was skimming through stuff. Saw an article about, about hearing aids and hearing loss and that sort of thing.

I'm totally sharing this with you guys because it just, it rings true to everything that the hearing loss clinic has been telling you and that I've been telling you. But there you see it. Oh, Reggie Bagelton. Back it up, Reggie, back it up. Autographed football and an,

autographed Reggie Begleton stamps jersey up for grabs Twitter or X and Instagram go to the hearing loss account, go to our account Flames Nation and details there on how you could be

a winner and that one will run through to the end of the week even Christmas, you know, pick somebody maybe on Christmas Eve, who knows but there we go. Thanks to Rhodesy and everybody at the hearing loss clinic for coming through with that. You keep doing the Reggie back I know, I do it so you can come in with the Terry.

My kid was doing that this morning. What? What you do? What you do? What are you doing? What are you doing? Back it up. Back it up.

Let's do the Pitter Report. How do you feel? Yeah, sure. Let's do it. All right. Village Honda, Northwest Automall and online at VillageHonda.com. Do you like cars that break down? No.

a lot on repairs. No. Do you like being stranded on the side of the road? No. Do you like, do you like purchasing something and not feeling good about that purchase in any way? Just almost immediate buyer's remorse. No. Well, that's good.

I mean, if you did like those things, then this is not really for you. But if you hate all of those things, then you definitely will get to get down with village Honda. Because they're not that. It's about reliability. It's about great support. It's about all of that. What do you think Honda is reliable? Yep.

Drive those things until the end of time. Village Honda, a huge selection of new and used in the Northwest Auto Mall, darn delay, and village honda.com online presents the Pinder report. Can they make, can they make tires that don't pop? Your tires popping, rat?

This poor Rob Ray. Hmm. Poor Rob Ray blew a wheel yesterday. Oh, man. Right on the old highway. Oh, no. The bolt right through the side wall or something. Oh, shoot.

He needed Brooks Lake to come help fix him, help change the tire out. Razor. Did he call it stranded? Side of the road. Did he call CAA? Our boys say, I think that's Canadian.

Yeah, but yeah. I mean, get the CAA guys come down there. They're great for us. Whenever I've needed CAA, those guys are bang on. We had a heck of a show with the CAA guys. Yeah. Yeah. Remember that?

Oh yeah, because you got, you got stranded. You were doing the Rob Ray on the side of deer foot 500 at four in the morning. Those fellas, they knew what was up. The flares going and everything. You know what, free plug for the CIA guys, fellas. And if you're getting ready to travel for the holidays, get yourself a membership. That thing is, it's awesome. You're out of the gas, CAA.

You got a flat, CAA. Car don't start, CAA. There's a whole bunch of stuff. And the crap you don't want. You want to travel. travel somewhere, CAA. You want to put the plates on your vehicle? CAA. You want to get gift cards on the back? CAA. That's right. That's a free plug right there. Who. You know how they do that sometimes? Like when Tiger Woods had the chip and the Nike swoosh was on

the golf ball. They talk about the amount like the the commercial value that that that iconic shot alone got. Yeah. Yeah. This is not that. CAA. You're welcome. You're welcome. don't use that ball. The phones will be just ringing right off the hook. Let's see. Hello, please hold. Can you hold please?

CAA. Pender report? Sure. Okay. Game day. Let's start with a look at the Pacific Division fellas. Here are the Calgary Flames sitting in. I don't like this.

Fourth. This is the mucky middle, rat. What the hell are we doing here? Really, really, really, when you look at the end of the year, that is not where you want to end up. Don't be there. Like, be high. And this is the gauntlet runs almost all over, Ryan.

I know. I don't like this at all. We need a loss to the ducks tonight. Oh, there are the ducks down there at a 3.87. That's how you do it. Yeah. Yeah, they're winning more than one out of every three. And look at Mike Greer down there.

Grissey's, uh, you know what he's excited about? When's the draft lottery? Yeah, Grercy can't wait. He's going to get a new suit. Jesus, that's about it. Yeah, he can't wait for it. Anyone want a lightly used Mario Ferraro, a slightly worn Anthony Duclair? Give us a call with 1,800 sharks.

Sharks. The wild card is here. So this is not now the Pacific. Flames still not quite in there, but not quite out either. Right. Nashville and Arizona are wildcard teams. Like that probably tells you that Minnesota and Edmonton have screwed something up here. They feel like they should be there.

And they have both those teams, to be fair. Both have fired their coaches already this year. So oilers, we're like, we're past the third point of the season here. I was going to say, let's play this out. Minnesota, we think, is going to be better. They have been better since the coaching change. The goaltending has been better. The Oilers, what the age?

Because what is it, four in a row they've lost now? Three, because they lost the islanders couple of nights ago, but they'd won eight in a row before that. So, okay. It's the emotional roller coaster. I think if they'd won three lost one, one, one two lost one. You'd be like, they're going great. But they win eight in a row. now they lose three in a row,

and it doesn't feel like that at all, right? Because someone, something they're going to have to catch the flames here, because please do. I don't know, flames are just kind of semi-consistent, right? That's hell. Yeah.

It's, uh, it's quite something. They outplayed the Islanders. So what our, sorry, Ryan, would our opinion change if we didn't believe Minnesota and Edmonton,

we're going to come along? change on what though like could the flames get in absolutely do you ever well would it change because you look at nashville and arizona's lineup and go uh yeah yeah i'm with you on that but i think what you've been saying all summer is even if you get in so what like let's say you get a wild card you got to go to dallas colorado l a Vegas like sorry i just wonder if you can get in and still make a move can i say something dean we'd love you're on a show that pays you to talk so yeah well hey so um To me, it's not about how the team's doing. For me, it's about seeing the young kids come in and the impact. It's like, oh, could they make the playoffs? No, no. They could be first in the division. And I'm still going to be lobbying to sell UFAs to get younger.

Because we've seen with what, two bodies, Posipal and Zeri, two guys have come in and have kind of turned things. Then get a Peltier in, get some other guys. What if you start getting other guys in? What else? Think of what you might be able to get. The boys on spit and chicklets were talking. The rumor mill chugging about Colorado and Elias Lindholm.

Does Bowen Byram get moved in a deal? Oh, my God. You start throwing some of these other, I mean, it's long shot, but you start throwing in other players. Bowen Byron? That's what makes my cholesterol-filled heart. Chug. What's the grinch of heart?

Does the Grinch have a heart? Yeah, it grows, three sizes, remember? Yeah. That's what's happening to you. Yeah, it is. Dude, that kind of deal. And again, like, that's just spitballing. Just that's the type of deal that sets you forward incredibly on like a five to 10 year plan.

And you're looking at, sorry, I said, we talked about the again with deal and that feels far fetched, right? But at the time, that's what it was trading a top, one of your top players for a prospect who was a first round pick may or may not turn out. But it did. turn the frigging franchise around. Byram's an NHL or he's playing in the league. I think he's too good for them to move. I think he's a part of them winning. But it's a good type of deal to think about

because the flames need D. They have Weeger and Anderson under contract. They've also got, yeah, they've also got Taves. They've also got Macar. They've also got the other young kid. Gerards and substance abuse. I always kind of mess him up with Shabbat in Ottawa. But anyway, again, total.

Smith balling, but it's about getting young. That is where I sit right now, because I think that the excitement level goes up as as much fun as it's been to watch these guys playing. Dubot. Coming to your point. Like we've had a little wolf here and there, which is nice. You're going to get a Peltier back.

Coronado will be up at some point. You should be taking calls on guys like AJ Greer. There's a waiver claim, turn them into an asset. Doobie. You should be taking calls on Dylan Dubay for anything, Rett, like a fourth or a fifth. Like open some holes for these kids, see what they got. I even thought like Solovia is a perfect example.

No one knew who the fucking guy was and you're like, shit, you might have a six, seven there. That's awesome. Get in the lineup, kid. Get in there. Do both. Get a young Dback? Oh, my goodness. Fight for a playoff spot.

Make some moves get younger. Do both. Yeah. You get a young Robin Regier. Oh, think about that deal. Who's that? Who's that? Who's young Robin Reier? Let's go.

He's never been young, I don't think. He's been an ornry old bastard his whole existence. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, his age is, yeah. We'd like to select 37 years old from Saskatchewan, Robin Regear. Wow. How has he not been picked already?

It's 37? Is he even eligible? Yeah. Are you allowed to pick him? He's already losing his hair. How is that possible? Guy's 17. He's got male pattern baldness.

That's unbelievable. Just checking in. Robin Regear is canceled for tomorrow. Oh, come on. Reg. Sensitive. Oh. It's about,

well, we can always dream, fellas, we can always dream. Born, Byram, done. You think

Tarnery would have done it? Yes. I don't think Colorado moves byrame. I think it's the type of deal you dream on. It's not that. He's too important

and Gerard's in the player assistance program and mobility on the back end is crucial to them. That's a core piece for them right now. I agree. It's the same, it's the type of deal

we're talking about, not to get hung up on names. I don't want people going nuts. Bairams come to Calgary. No, it's that type of deal, right? That's the type of deal. Loves Calgary wants to be. Loves Colorado, but Denver is very similar to Calgary.

So he's open. Loves chuck wagon races and pocket dogs. I think he was skating in Columbia Valley this summer. It was Cogliano, Macar, and I think it was Byron that was on the ice as well this summer. My Lich Terds had hockey camp in the morning and they were skating before. He loves the area, Dean. He's coming home. Big Stapeters fan.

I'm coming home to the room. Loves the horse. Not sure of the stadium, but he loves the horse. Yeah. The ducks look like this. Let's take a peek at what it takes to be the ducks. Try, tear. At the top with the rookie Leo Carlson.

Try, Ter. Hey, Dean. Back it up, tear. Bag it up, tear. What, you do? What do you do, boy? What do you do, Tia? He's done the right side of the timeline.

Then things get a little thinner. Now, Frank, the tank's been great. The pizza man always delivers. Great start to the season for Petrano. Shots, hits, points, goals, got it all. Adam Henrique, they're probably going to move him as that contract's starting to roll off now. And then we're into the, yeah.

Max E. Dimes. Maxionis. And look at that right winger. Rock McGinn, who absolutely crushed Lindgren. Jacob Sulfenberg, fourth line, Sam Carrick, Ross Johnson. And I believe Silverberg is 33 years old, which doesn't, he feels like 53. Didn't they have a chance to trade him a couple deadlines ago? Yes.

What are you doing guys? It was a hot commodity. Yeah. Now, Eves. Pinder. Eves. Yo, you and I were at the draft. in Nashville.

We were. When Leo Carlson was selected, that was, it was not a stunner or a shock, but it was maybe a selection or two higher than some thought. Am I right on that? When I said, dude, Carlson's going at two. He's like, what? You got to take a Fantilli there.

It's going to be someone else. Maybe it's Mishkov. It was Leo. He was a consensus sort of top three or four guy, but the ducks really like him. Why not? Jerry! Fowler, Lecombe.

Jesus, that's two places. What are you catching checks from your grandma? If you need money, I'll give you money. Jerry. Pavell, Minchikov. Mintikov. Is that Norma Lecombe's kid? God to be right.

Elia Lubushkin. Norman Lecombe. Urho Vacchanitin. Oh my God. Look at these names. Maconitin's also a kid? Vaconiton's young. LeCohman is young.

Don't even ask. Jack, can you please pronounce the bottom four defensemen for the ducks? Turn up your mic and here we go. Havel Minyukov. Ilya Lubushkinan, Radko Gudis. Yo-ho Vakinen. Yo-ho. Yo-ho.

Yo-ho. Yoh-ho. Yulonen. Right. Somebody just cleaned that floor. Yo-ho. Yeah. I said, what? What?

that's tonight late puck drop for the boom cat and the bike ball hey very Christmas Dean can't wait really excited for it Rhett's okay with it I ran it by red he says

you're good to go tonight the only thing I wish let there be overtime let there be overtime Jack he shook his head Jack is like no no no

no Alex Ovechkin having a tough month how tough well he's been outscored by a goaltender son of that's no you know what I I did a pre tape with somebody yesterday

and we'll have it we'll play it somewhere in the holidays and we got talking about this and I'll ask just because you brought up are you as confident as you were at the start of the year? Of course not. Are you leaking?

Are you leaking serious confidence now? How can you be confident? He's not paid for 15 goals. He needs to get 30-ish. Guys go through slumps, you know? So if this is a slump, that's great. If it's just a guy that's like in his late 30s that doesn't have it anymore,

this big trouble. I don't know which it is. I can't say I've watched him enough. He looked like shit the game against the flames. Terrible. So if he doesn't break Gretzky's, we're talking about the goal record. Yeah.

How does that make you feel? Does that, does it reaffirm what Gretzky did in your mind? No, the areas are totally different. Like, you look at the goalies that, like there wasn't even a butterfly. Can't compare error. No. So let me finish, Rhett.

No. Brett. Come on, Rhett. Sure. He missed a couple of years to lock, which, which sucked. Gratzky kind of did at the end, but not to the same, not in his prime. Yeah. And I still think he'll go down as the greatest goal score ever. Because if you do adjust for error, which you can do, it's not close.

But it would be nice if you just had no qualms about it. There it is. There's the greatest of all time. and there won't be that if he doesn't pass Kretzky, right? So just for clarity, when you say it's not close, it's not close in favor of. Oh, OVie would be, yeah, if OVee could play in the 80s when you'd score with soft-risters from the top of the circle.

You can't just pick them up and say play in the 80s and go ahead and take that stick and skates and equipment and all that stuff. But what you can do is look at how many goals per game there are in a given season and adjust both their careers and average out and say, okay, on the goals per game, like, I mean, it's not impossible. I'm not saying it's perfect. But if, like, again, let's scored 52 in the lowest scoring season in the history of the modern NHL.

That 52 goals, I don't look to as like 50. I look at it. It's like he scored like 60, 65 that year. The next closest was 43. When the year and the style of hockey in the era matters, you can't just scrub it out and say, ah, we'll never know. Like, we know it's harder to score in Ovi's life than in Wains. Put you in your place, Warner.

Yeah. And you know what? The beauty of it is, he's got science to back it up. Science. Back it up to bag it up. Back it up. Speaking of old legends, yesterday we told you, well, we told everyone upset the guy at the doctor,

that Yarmory Yager was making his season debut in the Czech League for H.C. Cladno. The team he owns. 51, Dean. Cladno? Collecting a paycheck. Get to Sartre, but you know. Very quick obrance. Yarmier Jager, he goes to.

He goes. He goes. Yarromir Jager, he propies, assistance. And Gladno snizue on one. Pretty good, fellas. Still looking like a 45-year-old, Yager. Very good. How many would Ovech could score in that league?

All of them. Yeah, he wouldn't have a tough time. But that is the top Czech division, if I'm correct. And Yager with a helper there in his debut at age 51. Can't make the shit up. It's like Czech Gordy How. No? Check.

What are we comparing them to? So why is he doing that? Is that like his dad? Well, he owns the team and I think it helps it keep afloat if he's there to sell tickets and then they don't sink to a lower division because they have relegation and such. But I think he also likes to play, as Rhett was saying yesterday. The hell are you going to do in retirement? Boring being retired.

Is it? Maybe he could jump on a podcast and get interviewed a few times a week. Or go play hockey and still wow people. Yeah, what's, you pick one, Red. Hey, everybody. I'm still great. It's lovely to see you. Do you remember 1998

where Dom and I brought gold to check in the proudest sporting moment of our country's history? Yeah, the guy's a goddamn legend. Yeah. Keep playing. Keep playing. Move along.

The other end of work. Connor Brown was healthy scratched for the Emmetton Oilers. It appears he will be. What? They play Jersey tonight. This is a lot of nerdy nerd stuff, but all you need to know,

in five-on-five, 29th out of 300 forwards in the league. Playing well. 341st at a 343 forwards with the same ice time in terms of his value. And the Oilers, because he's hit that 10-game threshold, they're going to eat up most of the cap growth next year by giving him an overage bonus penalty next year. I'm just going to say it because I'm bold right now.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Connor McDavid should shut his yap and maybe let the GMs. I really hope this will. wasn't Connor. There's too much of it though. There is, but the problem is an agent running the team. Exactly. Ah, that's what he said.

A whole freaking point, like your agents running the team, your buddies are there, la la la la la la and you're a horse shit. Stay out of it. Yeah, it's not a good look, no matter how it came to be. They could have sat him after nine games. He's hit that 10 game threshold. He's just put it to the moon. Look it.

Yes, he's off. come on what would we say here I mean right they were pals in Erie yeah great yeah and Chuck Knoblock really needs some reinforcing positive room environment like frick like if they were if this was happening

in our town we'd be like you'd be losing your mind what the are we doing and so if you just all the nonsense aside the last year of Leon Dry Settles contract is next year he is eligible to be extended this summer.

They've already, they've already chewed up most of the growth in cap. Like next year, everyone's like, yes, we go next to three and a half million, four million, whatever it is.

The oilers have less than a million bucks cap growth because they're bonusing this plug. They could have sat down after nine. Oh. I agree wholeheartedly. Thank you, Dean. You wonder who the most annoying fans are in the NHL? Boilers.

that's how you'd vote how would you vote dean well I see the there's the leifes how could the senators be number two well and if you look the last two years they were not even not even registered last year hardly at all this year very annoying

which does fit the bill it's a good point dean who amongst us knows a senator's fan let alone yeah that they're pissing you off enough that they're the second most annoying fan base this year.

Yeah. Which, they were very vocal this summer. They're good. They're back. Everyone's toast. Look at us go.

I don't. There's a three. The problem, I don't even agree with your take there because I've never heard anyone in passing or discuss the senators

as a fan, as a disdain, as anything. It's never come up in off-air conversation. You'd have to know they exist and have a feeling about them, never mind, like them to be a fan. Like I have a guy that I played with whose kid is playing there, and I still have never talked about the Ottawa senators. Truth.

We've got a dirty-ass fight. So we go to the go. This Greater Ontario, Junior. This is Junior B in Ontario, Red. Pull up your socks. OJHL. Rip it off his head and get about six good shots in. One, two, three, four, five.

He should be out of the league. He does not deserve the president. play in this league. You should be out of the league. He's not deserve. Now, I'm not that familiar with the junior B. I haven't seen a game in a long time. Would that be a penalty?

They just send them both back to the benches. Just like Darcy Tucker's brother nearly amputated a man's legs and ref was Rett was Rett was roughing. He said, hey, oh, fellas, back to your benches. So they get a little cool off period and then they're allowed to keep playing. Because I know it's Junior B

and things, you got to let boys play, right? Is it a little play? They're full-caged junior B player? I think you have to be now, yeah. Yeah. Come on, Canada. Not bad, man. Ah, you're going to like this.

How's that kid in the classroom? Is he like, does he get along with everyone? Is he a student? Is he frustrated? Did he just get dumped? What do we know here? But how are his grades? So my kid won an award the other day.

Sorry, I'm interrupting the Pinder report at school. Token here. old kid. It was a service awards. I said, you know what, young man, Jaime, you choose your whatever, reward you, whatever you want from this

wonderful service that you gave to your school. I'm going to sleep in tomorrow, dad. Okay. You can sleep in yesterday. That's great, son. Great choice. Let him sleep in. Come to find out the little shit had a

state test request. that had to be done yesterday. Absolutely sued me. And then he told his teacher, my dad said I could stay home. Dad's all I can stay home. Yeah, Harvey's playing chess. Dad's playing checkers. Damn. He's got that from his mom. That's good stuff right there.

That is good. Patty Mahomes, getting ready for the chiefs coming down the stretch. That AFC West is no good. But the chiefs have speed wobbles here. I don't know. I'm not really in love with him. But you know what Patty still believes. This is him coming in warming up.

Hey, now. Here are All-Star. Get your game on. Go play. Hey, now. You're a rock star. Get the show on. Get paid.

All that clitters is go. You stars break. Anyway, he loves that song. That probably is. Me too. Yeah. That is the play. The soundtrack in his head for sure.

The brand's taken a bit of a hit the last. It has. If he was listening to Taylor Swift, and if we found out, Oh, would that be creepy? Well, Jack would go AI, a pitcher of them making out. We'd have that by the end of the Pender report. Well, because remember, it was not that long ago that Kelsey was the D-bag.

Yes. You know, the loser and the drunk, you want to fight for your right to party. And Mahomes was the guy. Now it's like, you know, Kelsey's got this podcast. He's got Taylor Swift. Everybody loves him and his brother. And now, Mahomes, it's like, you're not really playing that great. And your brother's a complete idiot.

And you seem kind of shy. childish and what's your like your wife. Girlfriend's annoying. Yeah. The, uh, so long and start. Sorry, I was going to say, the long and short of it is, Barnburner says Patrick Mahomes, loser. Loser.

That's our take. Not a winner. I would not be shocked if they looked to trade him at some time. You know, it's a winner. Brett? I was close to being a winner. Talk to you about that off air. It's a bit of a soft spot.

but the San Diego Chargers slash L.A. Chargers social media team. When your season's lost and you're shitty and you fired the coach and your star quarterback's hurt and not your star wide receivers hurt, what do you do?

You do what you do best. Stirring up shit on the internet. Here is their campaign for Cameron Dicker to get voted into the Pro Bowl. Have you ever been victimized by a misbeulgo? No good. Why? To the right.

No good. My name is Cameron Dicker and I'll kick for you. 50, 40, 30, doesn't matter. I'll make it. Rain, sleet, or snow, this leg is ready to go. Don't believe me, ask him. And Rinderker is a really good kicker. He's outstanding and you know I love him.

And I did not edit that. So don't be a... And let me kick for you at the Provo. So go to Chargers.com slash vote to send me in my leg to kick for you. Vote for me! Vote for me! Proble! Proble! 2023 baby, let's go! That is outstanding.

They're awful at football. They're great at social. See, because here's the thing, right? And it's two things. The idea is great. It's a,

get him to the Pro Bowl, that whole thing. And then to write the bit, he nailed it, right? Because a lot of athletes, hey, send me to the Pro Bowl.

I could kick for you. But he's over the top and roaring and doing all of it. That was, that's well done. That is really well done. The other thing, too, is imagine if they're,

like, fighting for a playoff spot and he mixes a kick. after that. They don't have to worry about that. They're fucking awful. They're going to pick in the top five. How matter, Cam? You can't curse anything that matters anyway. You missed the rest of the year. We might move up a slot. Love it. That was very good. Good work, Chargers.

Between Herbert and that social media team, look out for that team. Thursday night football tonight, Saints and the other L.A. team, they're actually good. That's the Rams. They are favored here, fellas, by four. New Orleans D's been good. I love Nolar. Nolar, Marc Garciapara? Nolar! Yeah, so Rett's not a fan of solar, but he loves Nolar.

Nolar power. This will be a big night in our, this is going to impact our fantasy match, retro. There's lots of juice in these two teams, right? You got your Cameras, Olives, Stafford, Cup, Kiron Williams. There's some juice out there. What are you talking about? Anyway, Dean. Well, who's playing?

tonight my team I will have Kyron Williams my running back and if I don't change I'm on the fence with Puka Nakua who has been he's had a very good season

but has gone a little cold it's a good D too it's a tough spot to be in Dean Saints D is very good I have to play Kair and he's been too good but I'm a bad showing from Puka tonight and I'll be behind the eight ball early

what's the wager fellas what are we putting on the line here? I was thinking about I don't have anything. It's got to be food of some sort. Okay. Rhett? I'm good with food.

I love food. Like fancy dinner or something. You got to make buns for Rett when he's back if he wins. And you have to order him a soup if you win. Rett. How's that? That's both for Rett. That doesn't make sense.

So Rett gets buns or soup? No, we got to get some for you. Scrap the soup. Buns and soup if Rett wins. If you and Dean, what do you want? Let's just stick with the Pinder report. You're fun, hey? I can't pick a food.

Okay, Dean. I said, I said, let's go out for a meal. I don't know what it is. Sure. I'll make fun. Wings will be good. It's got to be more stakes than that. Prime rip.

Did he say steaks? Steak? Money's too tight for steak. Steak? All right. Steak. perfect Christmas gift for maybe the shovelerette. I know she's got a particular interest in you.

Ryan, there are the Calgary Flames. There's Phil Housley in there and I don't know if we can zoom in, but there's what a calendar. Goodness. Oh, wow. Look at Bernie. That low angle makes them look really tall.

There's the big human is in there. Yeah, Val Bure. Weems. Look at weaves. That's lacrosse stick? Is he fishing? What do we got? there. What the hell is he doing?

Steve Smith lifting barbells and some kind of fake lacrosse player. Like I've never. Shades on inside. It looks dark in there, Williams. What are you doing, bud? Or is that like broomball? Is Jerome tarps off with a cape there? Is that what I'm seeing? Val Burry looks like some hand model

from Europe. That's the gift for the shoveler right there. Put that under the tree. She's seen all those skids. Oh, look at Wilm. Clock. Look at Wilm! Mullet.

Billy, Chili Lindsay? Willie, that is beautiful. Send me a picture that close up. They're savvy. Wilm looks like on vocals for country band there. And Fred Brathwaite

loves golfing in jeans. Wow. That's a lot. Who's at the bottom left that I can't see? That's savvy. He likes in the dark apparently. He likes shaving with his skate.

He's living in the dark right now. he's a little bit. Clark Willem loves protein shakes. Oh, yeah. Regere is an outdoors. That is pure. That's whiskey right there.

Whiskey. Reg is sitting there lamenting. I'm going to lose my hair. I just know it. Oh, Jesus, Dean. Back to the well. Holy shit. And then Jeff Shatt,

could you put that back up? Jeff Shats is like, why would they take my picture with a fucking shadow right in the middle of the frame? I could move over two feet to my right. And it would be fine. But okay, you're the photographer, whatever you think. All right, guys.

You found them in the gutter. They just snapped it. Propped them up and photo. Okay, back to the gutter, sir. Uh, Rhett, there's some video from your kid hockey on the weekend that surfaced. I guess one of the, uh... I hope not. It was one of the dads was yelling at the ref.

He got tossed. So he's getting kicked out of the game. The ref's pointing to the exit. He's got to leave. Oh. Eat a bag of dix. Nice. So there's a lot there. We're going to have to break this down bit by

Ryan, you have done great on the video today. So first off, we have the incredibly sarcastic clapping to the ref from the guy getting kicked out as he's walking to the exit. Love it. Over the top, sarcastic, loud, you can hear it the whole building. Eat a bag of dicks. Okay, then we have the eat a bag of dicks, which is quite an insult to hurl over the glass of the officials. But we're not done there because Karen the mom on Ratt's team is saying, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,

eat a bag of dicks, we can't be saying that at the rank. Nice language in front of our boys. Oh, boy. Our boys. My boys. And then to cap it, phase four is, you know what, Karen, sit your ass down.

This isn't Wimbledon. They're playing tennis. Remember that from last night? What's the last night? I don't know. They must have been playing tennis the night before. They're not playing tennis. I thought maybe it was a deeper, something deeper, a little.

Yeah. I've got a pillow talk. Yeah. Glow back between a couple other dads. And I'm probably, let's watch it once from, from beginning to end and just soak it all in after the breakdown. Love it.

And it's entirety. Sorry. Yeah. No, if he was moving on. We're not done with that yet. I know. I know. Too good.

Wait. Eat a bag of chicks. Nice language in front of our boys. They're playing tennis. Remember that from last night? Eat a bag of chicks. Nice language in front of our boys. They play in tennis.

Remember that from my smile? That's terrific. It's so good. It's a beat. Excellent. It's so good. Yeah. Her timing is very good.

And he says, bang. Like, it's like, like we say about comedy. It's all about timing. And the gravel in his voice really adds to it. Like if he was kind of a high pitch and whatever, eat a bag of dick. Not good. He ate a bag of dick. Like it's perfect.

Last night. Wow. How much whiskey did he have last night and maybe this morning? Like, he's definitely, you know what else? He did not get the solar laser treatment. He was snoring. He had too much to drink the night before, had a heavy sleep apnea, aggravated.

He's been hauling on a lozenge for a good chunk of the day. his throat sore. And now he's been given it to the ref. I'd love to know what got him tossed. Like, what was the final straw? I liked it. It's a bit of a cliffhanger. I'm seeing that.

It can only, you can only dream on what got him tossed. Now listen, we're laughing, but this is no laughing matter. Do not insult officials. Have respect. They're somebody's kid.

Yeah, typically anything we show in the Pinda report, don't do any of these things. Don't do any of it. We don't condone it. And also, if your kid is interested in refing, they're short refs. And I think they make about 50 an hour.

Not a bad gig. One of the things that, I mean, are you guys fans of eavesdropping and wiring a room or no? That's all I do. You're going to love this. I'll hang outside your bedroom window and listen all night. That's great. I secretly recorded my son and his friends while they were eating at my house. I then wrote down everything that they said word for word.

Here's how it went. Bro, you're such a bandwagon fan. Bro, no, I'm not. Bro, you never liked the bills before they were good. Bro, I always like the bills. Bro, that is such cap. Bro, yeah, he's right, that is cap. Bro, at least I don't like the jets.

Bro, the jets are so mid. Bro, no, they're not. Bro, yes, they are. Bro, this mac and cheese is fire. Bro, yeah, it is. Bro, who is coming to your door? Bro, it's just the FedEx guy. bro he is always at your house bro i know my mom likes him a lot better than she likes my dad bro your dad is such a loser bro no cap he likes the lions

see now this hurts this hurts because i have teenage boys bro and it's going yeah i i speak that language mid cap bro bro that is so good you're on good stuff today Peter Cameron Dicker's in

They'd have a video guy to shoot it for in fairness. It's interesting, though, that Cameron was that set off by just seeing Santa Claus. Yeah, he didn't like that.

You didn't like being asked to sit on Santa's knee. That chair did not hold up well. Finally, I asked AI to create a video previewing tomorrow's show. Because, of course, we're going to do a regular show tomorrow and then immediately after the Festive Spirits program will run, which, of course, says it's a state. now.

Let's have a look. So there'll be lots of giggles and vomit tomorrow. Join us, would you? That is... Good distance. You usually want to bend at the waist and get down? He's really making that barfork.

Yeah, because I know for me, it would be bent over at the waist. Yeah. There'd be a knee bend. Oh, yeah. Oh. Tears are streaming down your face. I hope we don't get there.

Join us. That's your Pinda Report today. Proudly sponsored by Village Honda. Indeed. A huge selection of pre-owned vehicles, all makes all models, all budgets, over 70 units on site,

Hate the New Year. They hate it. Yeah. Yeah. Work on that. I can't stop it. We should have been doing that show today. Can we take a break after this and just do it?

I don't have the supplies and Tim the Booze guys coming tomorrow morning. What if Rhett and I drink? We'll do a show after this and then you can have a solo one tomorrow with... We can run that on Christmas. Yeah, because I got some... I got a bottle of Crown Royal that's just sitting over here. It had, you know, it's been sitting here.

Just waiting. Just wait. Just waiting. You know what I'm going to... I'm going to do something here. Because I kind of... Don Quay, darling. Finning. Finning Cat, the rental store.

Thank you, Finning, for coming on board and supporting Barnburner and Flames Nation. Ah, Finning, it's your local dealer for cat equipment built to handle work in Western Canada, for heavy equipment for the job site. Visit the cat rental store, chat with knowledgeable staff, and get what you need. Buy parts, rent tools, and power solutions. Visit finning.com for a location near you. Finning Cat. Cat, proud partner of the NHL. Got some for you today, Dino.

Let's see it. Time for I Dig It. Good point by you. There are the segment called I Digit for Finning Cat. We don't always agree on much, but we can always agree on one thing. Goalie fights are awesome. Let's go to Germany. Then it's the action,

Hinton out of the Reinsdor. And that's... God of these helmets and the rest. A caten reaction to follow. Oh, so far as well. It's going to go ahead. Here, there we see it in Wilde, Daniel Schmeltz,

and now, we're on. It's a goalie fight here on the ice. Toby, Anitchka and Niklas Kreutle. There we have it. That's seen you in the DA. And the Halle here feared it completely.

Breutley against Anchchikka. Interesting. Look at that, nice edges. And they'll bring them over because he's bleeding. Look at this. Great stuff. Oh, wow. Not a warm your heart heading into the holidays.

A goalie fight in Germany? I like it. I like goalies that like to fight. Now, I was thinking about this the other day with Bennington and St. Louis. He's never actually fought, right? Is that right? I mean, he just likes the fight guy. He likes the fight guy, or at least puts on that impression.

He's going after guy. when he's skating off, he's chirping and this and that. This is a guy that needs to fight. We had a goalie under 14-year-old kids. We're playing against this other team. The goalie on the other team was punching the metal wall. You know, the exterior of those walls, it's just that thin sheet metal, whatever.

Yeah, yeah. Punching it as his warm-up, but we're like, oh, boy, it's a warm-up. Oh, yeah. Well, and that, it would make a lot of noise, right? that's a good sound, it would echo, very intimidated. For a 14-year-old especially, I'd be intimidated. Jeez, this goalie's going to kick the shit out of me, I think.

There you go. That is, I dig it. For Finning Cat, Cat, a proud partner of the NHL. Check them out online, finning.com and find a location near you. Merry Christmas, Finning. Nicholas Truet of Nuremberg against Toby Anzica of Colm. Big Nurember. Colm rivalry. Lots of fans look like it

a good turnout. They love it in Germany, Rhett. They love it. Toby makes me think of the office and when Steve Karell would just give it to Toby. Toby shut up and get out of it. So good.

There's no good humor out there anymore. We need some more comments. Have you watched? I think you should leave now? With, uh, no. I have. It's, um, and I know people like it.

I know people like it. Is it a sitcom or a? No, it's sketch comedy. And so they're all like sort of five to eight minutes. You're not having to sit down too long. It's very much like curb your enthusiasm, awkward humor. It's like watching SNL without a live audience and a band and a host. And it's the same crew.

It is. Some of it's funny. It does have that feel to me that it goes on a little long. But some people love. Love it. Yeah. Love it. Yeah.

So, I mean, what hell do I know? Let's do Betway bets. I got one other, I got a bit of a, I'll call it a surprise, I guess,

a little Christmas surprise for you. And then we'll do some Asperette for Bontan. We'll do some Ascrette. The Betway app, you find it on your phone. You find it on your desktop. You find it on your tablet. Search the sports you like.

Find a game. Pick, bet. player props future bets game lines point spread whatever it is just bet the responsible way with bet way there's the uh the two that i have for today the new arland saints at the rams lar cooper cup under 71 and a half receiving yards really it's defense has been pretty good cup last week had good numbers but I think 60 yards of it came on one play. If there's no big play, I'm taking the under on Cooper Cup, 71 and a half, the underpaying minus 115.

And Calgary at Anaheim, I'm going to take the money line for the flames. So at any time in a game total of over five and a half total goals, the ducks have been in a lot of six goals, seven goals, six goal, kind of a pattern the last little bit. So I'm going for goals, lots of them, and a Calgary win tonight. plus 165. All right, goals, goals, goals.

Interesting. No value on the Cameron Williams touchdown. I think it's like minus 130 or something. So how about first touchdown of the game for the Rams running back that's been maybe the biggest surprise of the season for the Rams? Plus 350. We're all over that one, do you know?

Also, Conner's area point? Over plus over even money? Better than even? Plus 105? Yeah. No respect. Yeah. Yeah.

No, we bet. Betway bets of the day Get the Betway up on your phone Or on your desktop or your tablet Bet the responsible way with Betway Bump, bump, bump, bump. This is kind of, this is embarrassing

To a certain degree. I'm not ashamed. I'm kind of embarrassed. You guys will be Shocked, not surprised, surprise, not shocked. Embarrassed for me. Embarrassed to be associated with me. we got over that years ago.

Yeah, that's just standard. Okay, so I've got to ask you at the end of this, what your emotions are, how you feel about it. Okay. Just hang on one second. I have a year. Just have a very, uh, just a text.

I have to respond very quickly. Should we discuss amongst ourselves or just be silent? Yeah, I could, uh, you know what? Tell me about, uh, about DoorDash. What's on the menu for DoorDash tonight? And tell me about DoorDash. Well, Dino DoorDash, good pals of ours, doesn't have to be rest of ours.

grocery stores, flour shops, pharmacies. Maybe you need paper towel. My mom is sick. Can I send my mom something? Absolutely. Does she need some painkillers? Any histamine? What does she need, Rhett?

I'm going to find out. I'm going to send it over. Yeah, you can send it over with DoorDash. And here's the thing. You can make multiple stops on DoorDash with one delivery. That's double dash. You don't have pay multiple delivery fees for multiple stops. And how about this?

That's your first order on DoorDash. On the menu tonight, I've got a triple header for you, Rhett, so you're going to need to give me three things. Maybe an appetizer, a main and a dessert, something like that. We start at 5 o'clock. This is one of the more underrated rivalries in the league. Toronto at Buffalo.

I love it when it's in Buffalo because you get the traveling jerks from Southern Ontario coming in for the Leafs, hostile environment. Leafs are heavy favorites. Five o'clock start in Buffalo. What's your appetizing? Kalamari. Love it. We move from there to New Orleans in Los Angeles.

It's Thursday night football. We just talked about it. Saints at Rams. Rams favored by four points. What's your main? Caesar salad is my next dish. Okay. Caesar salad's very good.

And then the nightcap, Calgary at Anaheim Flames. Considerable favorites on the road as they have a two-game, Greater L.A. Roadie that gets them into Christmas. It's an eight o'clock puck drop, a later meal, rep,

but you're okay with that. Chicken Parm with a Penae pink sauce. Oh, yeah, I like that. That's very nice. That is what's on the menu for DoorDash. Remember that promo code, Nation 25. Your first order, 25% off and free delivery

Yeah. Put some pepper flake. Do you some of this? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Delicious. Um, I love Christmas, as you know.

Christmas and dogs. Those are my two things. There is one other thing, though, that I do enjoy. And while I was, uh, rooting around, you know, you're fishing out Christmas decorations and wrapping and this sort of stuff. Rummaging. Rummage, doing some heavy rummaging, looking for. stuff. We have lived in this house from the time we moved to Calgary, 2007. We've accumulated a lot of

things. And you just forget about stuff. You put stuff somewhere. I say, okay, I'm just going to put this here for now and that sort of thing. And then you forget that you have things. I like dogs. Yeah. I like Christmas. And I like puzzles. Of course you like puzzles. We know this. Yes, he does. You love puzzles. You don't like puzzles. He's a puzzler. I love puzzles. Around Christmas. Christmas music going, nice cup of tea, maybe some rum and eggnog, a festive,

whatever, your festive drink, people around fire on doing a Christmas puzzle. It's great. I had I found I I guess I had been buying some puzzles

and I put them all in the same place and then forgot that I bought them. Right. So we're going to take a look at what I have here for you. This one is open. So there was something else in this package. And I, I have not looked at,

I've not looked at any of these. Because as soon as I saw it, it's like, this is going to be very embarrassing. So really quick. Jigsaw Outlaw. What's the hashtag you want people using as they puzzle? Yeah, it's usually the jigsaw Outlaw.

So this, uh, this is a nice little kind of a Christmasy, oh yeah, the winter thing, right? They got the fire going. that's a thousand piece are right there. How long is it?

Look at all the white on there. That's going to be a nightmare. So I've never done this. It's not opened. I ordered it. And it's, there was something else in the bag. It's sat there.

This is my guy. I like Charles Weisaki. This is the Buffalo Games. Big fan. So now, another new one. That's all about the Buffalo games. So this was delivered when,

just for clarity? I don't know. Like years ago? There isn't a date on there? It's not really important. I don't think. It's not this Christmas. That's all it is.

Well, this isn't, that's not the part of the, the thing. Okay. So here's another one. This is a little 300er that I was going to play with the kids or do with the kids.

A little 300th. Isn't that nice? That's two. Jigsaw. La. Who doesn't love a good jigsaw puzzle, right? My wife,

but everyone else loves them. Oh, okay. Yeah. Richelike. Michel Deliquois, another 1,000er. Look at that.

Wow. Is that all frosset? Mm-hmm. That's true. Very nice, right? Lovely. There's a Christmas tree in the background. So that's a thousand.

You got a lot of work to do. Jesus. Yeah, well. They didn't want to just send a box, I guess, hey? Well, again, this is over a period of time. Okay. So you forgot about multiple orders. Yeah, I think this has probably been spring, summer, fall.

Last year, there's another light. That one. thousand. There's another Wysaki one. What's on the skyline there? What are we looking at? Those are balloon. It's a little,

what is this one called? Confection Street. This one is called. So it's a hot dog store, sells watermelons, pancakes. So that's that one there. Possible.

I have a bit of a problem. Another little wintry one there. That's nice. A lot of cabin. that one better. I'm not a fan of the confetti ones, but that one's good. Yeah, more of a summer. It must have been on sale or something. Must have been on sale. This one is called

Bostonians and Beans. Oh. Much made in heaven, Brett. Yeah. That sure is. I'm looking here because all of his paintings have an American flag in them. And I can't actually see where it is. Is he a name Charles Buffalo or something? Charles Wysaki.

It was quite a fine. When I, geez, when I found it. Christmas came early. Was there a room you'd forgotten about? This is a lot. There's another one. Look at there. They're skating on the canal or whatever there.

Oh, yes. Rito. Some horse drawn carriages, snow. Very festive. The good news is this is the last one. Okay. Because you got some work here. Oh, this is another little 300 or.

baby one. Very Christmassy there. Hey, isn't that nice? Yeah. And this one is Jingle Bell, Teddy and Friends. Large pieces, 300 again. I was going to, with the kids. So, uh,

right. Only seven. Yeah, that, uh, the over pays. The overpays. What would, finding a stash of unopened puzzles that I purchased. That way I checked. They had three and a half unopened puzzles.

I'm sure you must have got a special deal by five or more and get 12% off or something. Yeah. Now, what would also be embarrassing is if I went into the little cubby behind me and started pulling out puzzles, I probably have 50. So you don't, you're not a person does the glue on them afterwards and no, no, that's, I'm out for that. I do like to take care of them though, because after that, they will all go into the, their very own zippy bag. Because you can't just put them back in there. Because once they're open,

the lid could fall off and boom. Come on now. Take care of your puzzles, people. All right. Thanks. The outlaw says so. Yeah. If anybody knows.

I've got a great one downstairs too. I bought it at Winners, I think it was. It's the classic Rudolph, the red nose reindeer like my mug. And it's a thousand piece or two. I haven't opened it yet. How long does a thousand take it? Because obviously some are harder than others if they looks the same or whatever.

Yeah, which is why I, I'm fond of this brand because I like the way that the pieces go together. There's some other ones I'm not as fond of. These ones have a nice click. Real nice click. The artwork is very clear. I don't have time for flunky puzzles.

No janky. No janky puzzles. The L. L.A. is not going to stand for some B-level puzzles. Jigsaw-Law. Can you do us a favor? And every time you complete one, this. I think you have to set up a camera and

do one of those time lapse videos. That's the problem now. There's a lot of stuff that goes on. I don't, for whatever reason, I have not had and I kind of, I, I got my big board. I went last year, bought a big board board because I have a 2000er. But it was, so it was too big for my regular size board. So I had to go to Home Depot and get a special one cut and,

wow. And you guys say I'm a loser. Take that back. Like, see. take that back. Take a while to get to know me. I'm a wild party. I was going to ask you where you do it

because it'll take up the whole dining room table and you've got people visiting, there's people on the house, you need your own setup there. Some people will use the roll thing. I've tried, I don't like it, I don't think it works. So I just use a board. It leaves the room.

It'll go on top of the washroom dryer or wherever. There's a nice open flat surface. Then you bring it on back. Okay. Learning a lot here. we were having one hell of a show. Even better now. Time for Ask Rhett.

Here we go. Of Bon Ton meats. If we're going to do that, we should have been drinking. If there's something that's going to bring us back, a little Askrette, the original Bon Ton Meat Market opened its doors in 1921, and all they've done is fire out the best quality product

and treat people like family. Treat them the best. and they keep coming back. And that place up there, I forget, Greg texted me the other day, and I had the number, and I'll call it up here. Remember, it was when the cold snap hit. It was either Christmas or Thanksgiving a couple years ago. Last year, maybe.

And he needed the refrigeration truck to keep them warm so that the fresh turkeys wouldn't freeze. Around this time, if I recall correctly. Yeah. Freezing. So he got over. I think he's now out of the hot tub after his Cowboys loss. Mm-hmm.

Oh, yeah. I know he is because he's been working because the D-U-G's getting a delivery tomorrow and the D-U-G is pumped. Just to tell you how good the quality is, folks, the GUG, who doesn't F around with anything in life, top shelf all the way, he orders only chicken from Greg at Bond, Tom. Only. And Greg, being the man that he is, threw in a big old Tomahawk for the D-U. No, he didn't. Oh. Now, don't be expecting this if you are to make a...

No, you're going to have to buy a few sides of beef before you get to that level. Yeah, you're going to need to be in an upper percentile part of the customer base, perhaps. But it speaks to the generosity. And again, BS and joking aside, he donated a hind quarter of beef to our top shelf elf draw and then cut a check for $5,000. Oh, just five. Jeez. He just...

And if you've spent any amount of time with Greg, he's just let's do the right thing. Don't wait for other people to do the right things. Don't wait for your city counselors or government or whatever. If there's something that should be done and it's the right thing to do, let's just do it. And that's the way Greg, I think, has lived his life and how and why he's been so successful. You just treat people right and do the right thing. Amazing where it can take you. He says, just got home.

Now I get to organize 750 Turkey. orders and he sent me the sheet and you have names and phone numbers and pick up dates. This stuffed special number 87 cut up special number 48. Deboned special number 25 cleaned special number 17. I don't know what any of this means. The stuffed, the cleaned, the spatch cocked special number 61. This person just wants just the. smallest one. They didn't even give a

like a weight range or whatever. Just, just the smallest one. That'll be picked up on Friday, December 22nd. There's two pieces in that order. So anyway, he, uh, he's busy. He is the best. So if I go drop up a few Barnburner blondes, he'd be okay with, maybe I'm also

taking those little and crack in one tonight. I'm sure he is willing to drink him. I know. Yeah, he would be too. Just know them. Okay. Yeah. And I asked him, retro, I was saying that we have people coming over and we're doing a turkey, but I'd like to do a little bit of something else.

So who else do you talk to, right? Prime rib, period. Roast in a roaster on a lifter, a little bit of moisture under it, 325 for 20 to 25 minutes per pound for medium rare. It's so easy, you'll love it. Wow. How do I not do it now? I mean, I'm going to need that.

I've done some of Greg's prime ribs on the rotisserie. And I have, ooh. You're rude not to, dude. Just punch me in the face. The way you said it. It's the way you said it. Punch me in the face. Punch me right in the face.

I'm starving right. All right. All right, time for ask Rat. A presentation of Greg and Bon Ton. Ah, hey, Rhett. you finish the turkey. Are we now, well, he says turkey, turkey, bun, hot turkey sandwich

and the turkey soup. What is your go-to food to get away from turkey? I definitely make turkey soup. I love turkey. So that was going to be my question is once you're done to Turkey, what's getting the first run through? Immediately into the pot for the soup. Immediately into the pot for the soup. Because there's always enough leftovers for a turkey bun, but the turkey

bun with the turkey soup. And I almost, I almost make it a turkey gumbo. It's a, it's a real, it's a little bit thicker in the broth. Do you start it with a rue? Is that what you're doing there? Yeah, I do. Roo? It's, it's.

You got a rue on? It's so good. Get a root going? You got to get a stew on. You got a stew on. Rett. Look at this. Have you ever tried bacon rolls, golf ball sized stuffing?

wrapped in bacon and then baked in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes. It's our family's favorite app, Christmas app, be gone in less than 10 minutes. Shut the front door, I have not, Doug. My mouth is sweating here, Doug. And damn it to you for bringing this to me. And I'm already halfway through life. The hell.

Well, I like this idea because I do love leftovers, but I feel like the stuffing, it's more of a day of, I think, than a... Now, wasn't there someone else a few weeks back? that was talking about a leftover stuffing. Yes. Well, we were Thanksgiving.

We showed you the wrap. They fried it all together, sliced it up. It was like, yeah, well done. Very well done. Yeah.

Like I would say, we should do that in like a crab cake or something like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But like this here, you take the stuffing and then wrap it in bacon. Is that going to be any good?

Good. I mean, yes. Or yes. I bought bacon yesterday. Shut the front door. You bought bacon? Did you?

Oh. Jack, did you highlight any other questions? I saw you picking some. I can go back to the emails, if not. Where are we here? It's a turkey turkey soup. So good. Rat, this is from Grant.

I'm a coach of a U-13 team. Many of our players have sticks that are way too long. They don't want to listen to me. Maybe they'll listen to an ex-NH Ler and coach. They may not remember your years as a flame, but some of their parents might. What's the correct stick line from Coach Grant? Here's the problem, Coach Grant, and I hate to break it to you that we don't get to dictate to our kids.

My kid, who's too tall to begin with, has a stick that's here. What? It's great for the poke check. Now, does Bedard use a long stick? Is this the new thing? I'll Google that. And so anyway, coach, listen, there's a problem. It's an unsolvable event.

Ed Jovanoski started with a stick that was like to his forehead. By the time he finished his career to his chest. You tell me what's the right length. Really? I can tell you what's not the right length, the length that I used, which is probably the standard to your nose. Gotcha, yeah.

Didn't work. And that's the other reason I didn't score more points. What are you guys looking at? I'm Googling stick length for Connor. Also, I found two Jordan Bennington fights. both in the American League before he came up with the blues, do you know? Oh, really? Yeah.

So he has likes the fight guy. So, yeah, it was back in 2017, Bennington, Phoenix Coppolae, and then Bennington-Labree from Rockford. It was a Chicago Rockford. That's a good rivalry right there. PC LeBree? John L. Have I ever had a teammate traded? I disliked.

First of all, I like everybody. Right. And everyone likes you. That's right. I actually have not had a teammate traded that I just wanted to punch him. I did beat up Michael Groscik in Boston one day though. Really?

He was being an idiot. He was a brewing? Yeah. I wasn't. Wasn't he the one that had body odor? Didn't you say he stunk or was that? No, that was Yokin-Heshd? No, Valada wouldn't brush his.

Verata. Oh, Vaclat-Virata. He would do. Lovely guy. Give him a scrub. Give him a scrub. Backal of halitosis. Yeah.

Great guy. You'd take him on your team right now. He'd run around. Just crush people. Really? Crushed people. Thick. The internet must not be working.

Boom's frozen again. No, I'm here. I'm just having a text. I guess you can't talk so much yourself. Rhett, stuffing in the bird or separate? Also, would you add jalapinos in the stuffing. I can honestly say I've never had alpano stuffing.

That sounds interesting depending on what kind of I'm I would be a little concerned. Does stuffing jalapinos and gravy blend? I'm not saying it would be bad. I don't think you want too much. If you're going to get heartburn from the stuffing, you've ruined something. Maybe a little, a little bit of heat,

red. Yeah. And if you want the best tasting stuffing, it goes in the bird. The other thing is you're not a big jelly fan. A jalapino jelly maybe at the table wouldn't be the worst instead of stupid cranberry jelly. But absolutely for the best stuffing, you put it in the bird. It's not as convenient or easy, but it is the best flavor.

From Jim. Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Rhett to you and your family. Nothing about Ryan or I. We are flying into Fort Lauderdale, but need to get to the port in Miami. What would be the best motive of transportation? Oh, it's easy. It's not far. Taxi, Uber, you're close.

It's right there. It's right there. Can't walk. I don't know that there's a train. No. Don't think so. A lot of trains down there. Take the bus.

Oh, don't do that. Think of bus. Cheers. Kids, a little responsibility. You're spoiling them already. Take the damn bus. Cheers to the Barner crowd Jim from the Rock. There you go.

Hey, Rhett. Sorry to hear you missed out on Boom Boom's Drive-In Theater. What was he talking about? Anywho, I got to come up with a drink and Appie for Christmas. I'm not good at cooking, nor do I put much effort into this thing, but I don't want my peeps to know. So any suggestions for me, for me, my man. great appy.

It's got to be easy, though. This guy's letting you know without saying it. He's a shitty cook. You're telling me you can't take a little bit of stuffing and wrap a piece of bacon around it and fried up. Making stuffing for a club might not be so easy. Go buy your stuffing that's made already. You can find it.

You can find it. What else? I think you can do that. And you know what? Challenge yourself. It's not hard. You might find you love it. Pep talk.

And you know what? find you love cooking taste test four or five drinks and then go do the cook and you'll be you'll get it all figured out and i would go simple on the drink too make a you know what damn it make a punch yep there's got to be something in a massive bowl served at every christmas feast punch rum and eggnog something where you can just we had chili i dropped it on dr dan's head But you need a bowl with some sort of drinking it with the ladle. Just keep filling.

And then with the kids, they get to a certain age, they come by and add another Mickey into it. Trying to get the parents all pile up. Anti-Garon is just plastered. So good. Using that language in front of our boys. Rett from Glenn Snar. Curious what typical NHL team travel looks like. Assuming teams don't ride a bus to overnight games is air travel charter.

Do you enjoy going more than one tiny bag of pretzels? Are there any travel restrictions regarding time zones, length of flights, hotels? Do you share rooms? Who is your favorite roommate? Team meals? Do you get to order your own meals? Does somebody collect your subway order? On game day?

What does the day look like as far as meals? Getting to the rink by charter coach, do the rookies load the gear like in junior? What is a typical pregame routine? Just a little bit there. That's from Papa G loving the show. Papa G. So all first class charter flights.

No, you don't order. They'll have a couple different menu items. on the plane that you can order off of chicken or beef or pasta or potatoes kind of thing. There's so much food around, you never go hungry. Bus.

Don't know that guys share rooms anymore, which is a huge negative, if it's the case. At one point, there was a games played, and then you could go into your own load. They just lowered it? Yeah. The problem with that is, yeah, the camaraderie, the guys that you're tightest with are the guys that you're roomed with. Of course.

It's a negative, not to have a roommate sometimes. What else did I forget? Typical day and day, I don't think they, they may even pay for breakfast nowadays. I'm not 100% sure, but it used to be get up, buy your own breakfast, hop on the bus, down to the rink, have a little twirl,

have a shower, back on the bus, back to the hotel. It was the same meal all. the time. It gets a little old the buffet. Yeah. But you're never hungry.

NHL. This one's coming in all the way from Weyburn. Briden wants to know, hey, Rhett, do English muffins have a top and bottom? I believe they do. Is this an old discussion we've had? It was a discussion on something.

I know that we've discussed it, but I think it comes from a movie somewhere. or sitcom or something. Well, I know that Elaine was talking about the muffin tops. What's the better to the top of the muffin, too, Dean? Yeah. It wasn't the English muffin. But the English muffin, if you're having like an eggbook muffin.

The top of the muffin, the English muffin is a little bit smaller, which is hard to discern, but professional eyes here. Now, are you sure that's accurate or? I'm positive. Okay. Um, you want to debate it? No, not really. Hey, Rhett, how much does your snoring bother the shoveler?

Oh, I sleep on the couch. Doesn't bother at all. What a gentleman, eh? Lose that calisone, you came to the shoveler. It's Christmas all year long, just giving and giving. Do you snore? Uh-uh. Sure. Fit.

Fit. If you handle your fitness, really helps with your snoring. Are you into this new fad, the hostage tape, Brett, where you put the tape over your mouth and force you to breathe through your nose? What? I don't think you could call it that.

That sounds awful. It's just the latest rage now. For sleeping, for fitness, it's forced you to breathe through your nose, which is very healthy, right? I thought you'd be all over this. What if you got a deviated septum like you used to have before you went and lost your good voice. That's right.

Your nasal surgery. Sinus again, but nice try. Well, they have those, do you have one of those workout things where basically it's suffocating you as you work out? So you have to try harder to breathe. I've got one of those, yes. Of course you do. Yeah. It's good for you.

Is it the gym here? Train to learn. Boss, Rootin. Pulled boss. You could take it. Who's boss root? you know who boss is? No, do you know who boss is?

It's an Eastern European tough guy? What are we talking about? Yeah. He is a mean SOB. He is very tough. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm.

Just need another text here. Last. Yeah, you know what? It's, well, yeah, again, we shouldn't be. Shouldn't be taking kids out of school. What do you remember? Now, there's somebody he took, and I wish I'd have seen this. I didn't see it until just now.

Okay. That's. It is a Calgary's Rhett Warner loses his helmet during a fight with Edmonton's Rafi Torres on Saturday night. Warner fought Torres following the Euler forwards hit on David Moss, who is now day to day with a concussion. Moss still day to day. Goodness. Thoughts and prayers. Connor says, what do you remember about fighting Rafi Torres after he hit Moss high?

Alternatively, okay, that's the second part of the question. So start with that there. Do you remember this? Yep. I did just remember he hit Mosser and I knew we had tough guys, but Rafi wasn't going to fight like a real, I forget who was like Simon or someone, right? So I was like, well, I better get that guy.

I really wanted to beat him up when I was swinging wildly and we started to spin and I should have been a little less aggressive than I would have done a better job. Alternatively, what do you put in your homemade burgers? For years, I was the type to add the egg, breadcrumbs, soup mix, but all the recipes I find online now emphasize that you're not making meatloaf here and advocate for just salt and pepper. Thoughts? Bontan meat is where it all starts. You go up there, you get the good ground.

And I was the same. I used to add a lot. Now, my boys love a barbecue burger where I actually. Actually, it's just burger meat with sweet baby race. Barbecue sauce. Mix that in and grill that. Oh, you know what it reminds me of for some reason? Every time I make them, I think I'm cooking for Jughead.

Jughead from Archie. Yeah. That's the kind of burger I think that he would love. What was the name of the place? Is it the pop shop or something? It always go eat. Pops. So for me, it's that or it's,

the smash burger now salt pepper smash it down thin i love my kids don't like it but i love the frying frying some onions and throwing that on there with a little spicy aoli oh yeah good i'm actually making those today yeah but if you got a good blend burger blend you don't need all the other stuff onion soup and barbecue and barbecuing them is the hardest part because it dries them out. Just you got to be careful. If you do it on a griddle, even if you spray a little water in there,

cover it, let it steam a little. And you know what's crazy? I, for the longest time, and I just never thought about it. We always just grilled our burgers. But if you go to fast food

or a lot of places, it's not grilled, it's fried. So to pan fry or griddle a burger seems very foreign and strange. But you can control it a little more. It's phenomenal. You enjoy it.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. And again, with the quality meat, maybe you don't have to cook it as long. You know, I'm worried about it. It's true. Yeah.

This is true. Hey, Rhett. What do you want for Christmas? Ah. Ooh. I think that I'm getting a grounding mat and an infrared lightbed. Maybe. Maybe.

A grounding mat. for ground beef what do we well listen so the problem with society is that we don't spend enough time out in nature and we always are on cement or asphalt or sidewalks or in the house we don't get our feet and that energy going from the earth to your body there's an energy source that you need to absorb and release and to have the circadian rhythm correct so with the grounding mat you can kind of cheat that system. It's that or you go out and it's hard to do in the northern climbs. If you lived a little further south where it stayed warmer, you could take the shoes off,

go for a walk in the grass out in the woods with no footwear, allow your toes to get a little dirty. Yeah, but you can't do that up north because it's too damn cold. You'll slip on the ice. And what does that do? What have the tests shown that when you go out and you're on the grass or you're with the earth. What are you, what are you getting?

Your energy flows are correctly. You're not getting, yeah, it's not just your circadian rhythm. It does help with the circadian rhythm, but it's, yeah, your,

your energy isn't getting blocked. Right. So it's not for ground beef. No, you can't use it. No, it's not a grounding.

Yeah. That's, yeah. That's a grinding, Matt. Now, so, so that's the ground,

the grounding mat and a red, a red light therapy. be bed. Yeah. Because you have the mask. And you have the ear bulbs. That was the blue light though. That's not the red light.

Okay. Yeah. Which one's this? This is the red. This is like living with the sun. It's part of you. Every morning you get up, you do your grounding in the red light and then you're ready to go. So is this a tanning bed?

No. No, no, no, no. But you'll get a healthy glow, right? Oh, I'm going to be beautiful. Yeah. Skin's going to tighten it. Right. Got it.

Well, tough cat of shop. It's also great for the vernacular. It's like they say, what do you get for the guy that has everything? Or what do you get for the guy that has lost it altogether? Lost his friggin' mind. Lost everything? It's one of the, pretty soon you'll be like the boy in the bubble. You'll be sleeping in an incubation tube.

No, no, no, not an incubation tube. or a bubble. I'm going to get a hyperbaric chamber. Hyperbaric chamber, Dean, come on. I apologize. A hyperbaric chamber. I've already looked into that.

So you get that sort of. So you go from couch to hyperbaric chambers. Skipping a few steps there. That's probably good, eh? More than enough, I'd say. Yeah, that's probably good. That is a very Christmassy edition of Ascret. Thanks to Greg.

Of course, from everybody at Bontan meets. They wish you and yours a very merry Christmas, Calgary tradition since 1921. We ask, we say with everybody, support the sponsors. Greg was saying the other day somebody came in. So a barn burner came in and what do you think they got? Potato salad. He said it's only, it can only be one thing.

And of course, it's the potato salad, which we become highly recommended. I almost feel like he'd wish we'd stop talking about it. He does. Of all the things you could talk about. Yeah. Why? You know what, Greg? Don't make it so damn tasty if you don't want us to talk about it.

Yeah. It's so good. So good. And the thing is there's probably a lot of other things in there that are amazing. Yes. Well, one thing we'd never mention and you always should get when you go there, a meat pie. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm starving.

Worst show today for food. Bad day to not eat breakfast, Rhett. No, intermittent fasting. You're into it. I know, yeah. That's good. Not. Final few spots available on the Barnburner vacation.

One last little thing to do, but we got a lot done today.

Too much. We got a lot done today. Didn't need to see all those puzzles, nor hear all about the grounding, Matt, but here we are. What a show it was. I feel I probably need to slow down on the puzzle thing. I probably got a few to get through. it looks like he got a nice little stock. Yeah.

I like, I kind of like to keep them. What if I want to do them again? But do you? Yeah, I do some again. Yeah. Okay. Well, that's fine.

I think you'd like that. I would like to like I will say this, spending December where it's warm. Yeah. And beaches. The body enjoys that.

The body responds to it. Feels good. Yeah. Because no tarpon to get your ground. grounding. It's a lot of grounding. It's laying down, kneeling, falling down. It was a lot of grounding.
