A Baggedmilk Christmas Extravaganza

Wednesday can only mean your third-favourite podcast is back with a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never to preview Game 2 against the Kings and discuss whatever else is going on in our lives. Welcome to a fresh BLTN, everybody.There's nothing quite like playoff time in Edmonton, you know? The sun is shining, the car flags are out, and our beloved Edmonton Oilers have kicked off what is sure to be another exciting and stressful playoff run. It's the best time of year. On Monday night, I was at Rogers Place for Game 1 of their first round matchup against Los Angeles, and it was so much fun to be back in the building with that kind of energy. I cannot wait for Game 2. We'll be flying down to Los Angeles for Games 3 and 4 on Thursday, and I could not be more excited to be down there and get in the mix. The last two post-seasons in LA have been intense, and I can only imagine we're in for much the same treatment this third time around. If you've never been to a playoff game at Crypto.com Arena before, let's just say that a small segment of the fanbase can get really spicy.Lastly, I wrapped up this week's show with a guest RSB and capped things off with another round of voicemails ranging from Oilers talk to delivery orders and everything in between. Once again, this podcast always makes me laugh, and I'm so very grateful for the levels of participation by the wonderful BLTN community that keeps moving.

We've passed the midway point of the week, which means a fresh episode of your mom's favourite podcast is ready to massage your ear feelings. On this week's Better Lait Than Never, we're looking at Connor McDavid hitting 100 assists, potential playoff matchups, reality TV, and whatever else has been going on over the last seven days.Kicking off this week's BLTN, I started the podcast with a random collection of topics, a confession that I might be getting hooked on Survivor again. Personally, I hadn't watched the show in over a decade, but having my missus glued to the TV every Wednesday night has piqued my interest. Then again, it might just be because I found out how much money Jeff Probst makes to host every episode.Turning the podcast back toward the Oilers, I started the news with a tribute to Connor McDavid after he reached the 100-assist mark on Monday night against the San Jose Sharks. What was hilarious about that last assist, however, was that it took eight goals between the time Connor opened the scoring and when he picked up the helper he needed on Zach Hyman's 54th goal of the year. Evan Bouchard also touched some Oilers greatness against the Sharks after hitting the 80-point mark, and now, all I can think about is how much that next contract is going to cost.Lastly, I wrapped up this week's show with an RSB about the NHL schedule and capped things off with another round of voicemails that ranged from Oilers talk to landlord issues and everything in between. Once again, this podcast always makes me laugh, and I'm so very grateful for the levels of participation by the wonderful BLTN community that keeps moving.

We've passed the midway point of the week, which means a fresh episode of your mom's favourite podcast is ready to massage your earholes. On this week's Better Lait Than Never, we're looking at Connor McDavid's day-to-day injury, more cereal talk, playoff matchups, and whatever else has been going on over the last seven days.Kicking off this week's BLTN, I started the podcast with a random collection of topics, including a look at a birthday song that Meat Watcher made for me. We haven't heard from Meat Watch in a while, but our guy came through with another beautiful BLTN original. I also called back on our great cereal debate from a few weeks ago after buying another blast from the past and adjusting my overall cereal rankings accordingly.Turning the podcast back to the Oilers, I started the news with the big story everyone is talking about Connor McDavid is banged up and will miss tonight's game versus the Golden Knights. Listed at day-to-day, McDavid could miss a game or two while he recovers from a lower-body injury, and understandably, Oilers fans are freaking out about it. We're also losing our collective minds about the Corey Perry/Evander Kane exchange from Saturday night when the camera caught them going at it a little bit.Lastly, I wrapped up this week's podcast with a little bit of betting talk for our friends at Bet99, offered up an RSB about the Arizona Coyotes, and capped things off with another round of voicemails that ranged from Oilers talk to dating to more cereal talk and everything in between. Once again, this podcast always makes me laugh, and I'm so very grateful for the levels of participation by the wonderful BLTN community that keeps moving.

We've passed the midway point of the week, which means a fresh episode of your mom's favourite podcast is ready to massage your earholes. On this week's Better Lait Than Never, we're looking at Connor McDavid's chase for 100 assists, goal reviews, playoff matchups, and whatever else has been going on over the last seven days.Kicking off this week's BLTN, I started the podcast with a dose of random topics from the past week. From a friend of mine getting crapped on by birds to more Big Brother Canada talk to why I hated Road House, there was a lot going on this past week. Is all of this worth talking about? Probably not, but you may as well be into it, or I'll tell all of the stories twice.Getting back to the Oilers, how could I not start with some Connor McDavid talk? The guy is so hot right now that I'm legitimately concerned that he may spontaneously burst into flames. With 25 points in his last 10 games, McDavid is now 24 points away from hitting 150 on the season and 24 away from 1000 in his career. Needless to say, the captain has shaken off that "slow" start in a big way.Lastly, I wrapped up this week's podcast with a little bit of betting talk for our friends at Bet99, offered up an RSB about Peter Chiarelli, and capped things off with another round of voicemails that ranged from Oilers talk to reality TV to more cereal talk and everything in between.

I decided to drop two parts for Better Lait Than Never this week after receiving 9000 voicemails over the last seven days, which meant it was time to dig into your feedback from the week. Unsurprisingly, the voicemails were hilarious right from the jump, and it’s so much fun for me to watch this segment grow and expand over time. Now, with a bunch of new callers in the mix, the VM section of the podcast is turning into a beast all on its own. Once again, this podcast always makes me laugh, and I'm so very grateful for the levels of participation by the wonderful BLTN community that keeps moving.

We've passed the halfway point of the week, which means a fresh episode of your mom's favourite is set and ready to massage your earholes. On this week's Better Lait Than Never, we're looking at Zach Hyman's 50th goal, Connor Brown's heater, Connor McDavid chasing 100 assists, and whatever else has been going on over the last seven days.Kicking off this week's BLTN, I started the podcast with a dose of random topics from the past week. From picking up my new whip on Friday to diving into Big Brother Canada to talking about our love for pets, it was undoubtedly a busy week outside of work for yours truly. A lot of life happened in not a lot of time.Turning the show back to the Oilers, how could I not start with Zach Hyman hitting 50 goals for the first time, and how the reaction to that goal was all over the map depending on which fanbase you reside in? Even though we all knew the milestone was coming, watching him actually hit it was a moment a lot of Oilers fans will remember for a very long time.I also looked at the Evander Kane situation that has been bubbling up around here lately. The forward was scratched for maintenance for Sunday's game against the Ottawa Senators, but according to Elliotte Friedman, it seems like the move was actually a healthy scratch. Regardless of what the truth looks like, what we know to be true is that the Oilers will need Kane to be at his best down the stretch if the team is going to make noise in the playoffs.💻 Website: https://oilersnation.com/ Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/himynameisbaggedmilk/Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/jsbmbaggedmilkSHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Bet 99: https://bet99-8390734.hs-sites.com/oilersnation-b99net-giveaway👍🏼 Star Mechanical: https://starmechanical.ca/ 👍🏼 Snow Valley Aerial Park: https://www.snowvalley.ca/aerial-park/👍🏼Rainbow Valley Campground: https://www.rainbow-valley.com/Want to leave a voicemail for next week’s show?

It's Wednesday afternoon, and that means a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never is set and ready to massage your ear holes.Kicking off the podcast, I got started with some big news from my personal life. Thanks to our friends at Sherwood Ford the Giant, I bought myself my first new car in over 15 years. Needless to say, it's been a minute. As much as I loved my old Escape, some repair needs relative to the worth of the vehicle meant that it was time for an upgrade, and that's exactly what I did.Turning the podcast back to the Oilers, I offered another look at our new friends in Adam Henrique, Sam Carrick, and Troy Stetcher after all three players made an impact on the ice over the last week. I also looked back at the games the Oilers played since the last show, including Wednesday's win over the Caps, Saturday's loss to the Avalanche, and last night's sloppy win over the Canadiens. Even though the Oilers only played a couple of gamesI wrapped up this week's podcast with a little bit of betting talk for our friends at Bet99, offered up an RSB about winter driving, and capped things off with another round of voicemails that ranged from Oilers talk to reality TV to more cereal talk and everything in between. Once again, this podcast always makes me laugh, and I'm so very grateful for the levels of participation by the wonderful BLTN community that keeps moving.

No better way to celebrate the halfway mark of your work week than with a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never! This week, we're talking Edmonton Oilers, cereal, daylight savings time, and anything else thatKicking off this week's BLTN, I got the podcast started with a chat about cereal. That's right, cereal. Recently, I started buying a bunch of cereals I used to love as a kid to see if they still hold up, but what I didn't expect was the passionate debate about which one is the best. You, fine folks, were incredibly passionate about the subject, and I had so much fun going through everyone's takes about which cereals are best and which are the worst.Turning the podcast back to the Oilers, I started the hockey talk with plenty of excitement because I had tickets to Wednesday's game versus the Capitals, marking my first trip to Rogers Place in quite some time. From there, I looked at our new friends Adam Henrique, Sam Carrick, and Troy Stecher and gave my first thoughts on how everyone is doing with their new team so far. I also wanted to give some love to Calvin Pickard. The guy is playing his ass off between the pipes right now despite so many people doubting him, and I think it's only fair to pump his tires a little bit after a fantastic performance against the Penguins.I wrapped up this week's podcast with a little bit of betting talk for our friends at Bet99, offered up an RSB about dog maintenance, and capped things off with another round of voicemails that ranged from Oilers talk to reality TV to your favourite cereals and everything in between. This podcast never ceases to make me laugh, and I'm so very grateful for the levels of participation by the wonderful BLTN community that keeps moving this show forward.

The Edmonton Oilers made a handful of moves at the 2024 NHL Trade Deadline, but they weren't able to plug all of the holes they probably have. That left many Oilers fans wanting and wishing Ken Holland was able to do more than pick up Adam Henrique, Sam Carrick, and Troy Stecher. Were there even options for him to upgrade beyond those three? Were there deals they should have been in on?I gave my take on the Oilers' trade deadline and also read all of your feedback about how you thought the Oilers fared in the NHL's annual swap 'n shop.

There's nothing quite like a big trade in the hours leading up to the new episode of Better Lait Than Never to liven up the podcast, amirite? Today, Ken Holland pulled the trigger on a trade that saw the Oilers send out their first (2024), fourth (2025), and fifth-round (2025) picks in exchange for Adam Henrique, Sam Carrick, a seventh-round pick, and Ty Taylor, and I want to talk about it.Before we got to the trade talk, I had to walk through a few different things first, including the amazing Brunch for Ben that happened last weekend and Greta and the bonus episode of BLTN that I recorded with Dooks. For my money, Dooks' visit to town went about as well as it possibly could have, and I was very grateful to be able to spend a little bit of time with him. I was also happy that he was able to attend the Brunch for Ben that happened on Saturday, marking the first Nation event he was able to attend as well.Turning the podcast back to the Oilers, how could I not start with the massive trade that happened this afternoon? The Oilers sent out three picks—a first, fourth, and fifth—to acquire Adam Henrique and Sam Carrick at 75% retained while also grabbing a seventh-rounder and depth goalie as add-ins. While I personally like this trade a whole lot, it wasn't surprising to see how many Oilers fans were left wanting after the team spent its best trade chip on a middle-six forward and depth centreman.Lastly, I wrapped up this week's podcast with a little bit of betting talk for our friends at Bet99, played a guest RSB from Nick, and capped things off with another round of voicemails that ranged from Oilers talk to reality TV to anything else that was on your mind. Once again, this podcast never ceases to make me laugh, and I'm so very grateful for the levels of participation by the wonderful BLTN community that keep moving this show forward.Oh, and subscribe to my YouTube channel.Want to leave a voicemail for next week’s show?
