Oilersnation Radio

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of ONR is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Oilers training camp, Mike Babcock's first spin as the head coach, another round of Ask the Idiots, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether the boys had any takeaways from the first two days of Oilers camp, and whether there are any early storylines that the boys have been paying attention to. Whether it's line combos, some early injuries scares, and seeing Mike Babcock on the ice as the coach for the first time, all eyes are on the Oilers are we lead into the 2026-27 season. Needless to say, we're still in the early days, but that doesn't stop the Kool-Aid from going down smooth. Shifting gears, the guys turned the podcast to some of the other news the Oilers announced this past week, including the announcement of Evan Bouchard and Zach Hyman as alternate captains. While that conversation was happening, the boys quickly pivoted to our man Woz vlogging his way through Poland. Getting back to the NHL, the guys discussed former friend Shawn Horcoff being named interim GM in Detroit, and how he has an absolute disaster to clean up. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, discussed the first week of the NFL season, the Elks locking in their playoff spot, Stanley Cup odds, and wrapped up the podcast with a special musical performance from Producer Reece. With the NHL season only weeks away from kicking off, the boys had fun breaking everything down and getting excited about what's to come. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers signing Alex Formenton, the start of the NFL season, another round of Ask the Idiots, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Alex Formenton being signed by the Oilers on Wednesday, and how the decision to bring him to town caused all kinds of noise around the franchise. For a lot of Oilers fans, the backstory on the player should have eliminated the opportunity play on the best league on earth. While the noise was certainly loud from the fanbase, the reality of the situation is that the team does not care. Shifting gears, the guys turned the podcast to a discussion about training camp, and whether there are any players who have a chance to make an impact and steal a spot. Two players that were worthy of an in-depth discussion were Josh Samanski and Isaac Howard, as both young men are looking to get themselves established. While both guys had flashes at the NHL level, neither has done enough to necessarily have their spots written in ink. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, discussed the start of the NFL season, the Elks' opportunity to lock in a playoff spot, and wrapped up the podcast with a special musical performance from Producer Reece. With the NHL season only weeks away from kicking off, the boys had fun breaking everything down and getting excited about what's to come. 🤝 SPONSORS 🙌 Powered by bet365 → http://www.bet365.ca/ (Use code: NATION) 🥙 Swiss Donair → https://swissdonair.com/ Hosted on Acast.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers primed for a bounce back, expectations for Trent Frederic, another round of Ask the Idiots, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about which Oilers player the fellas are most excited about as bets to bounce back or have a strong 2026-27 season. Whether it's Trent Frederic having a better year in Edmonton or Jason Dickinson doing what he can to improve the power play, the fellas had plenty of options for players who could have a larger impact on the roster. We also discussed a player like Josh Samanski taking a step forward this season even though many Oilers fans are already bullish on what he might do. Shifting gears, the guys turned the podcast to a discussion about Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl playing together on the first, and whether or not Stan Bowman's plan makes sense for the team as its currently built. Sticking with the lineup, the guys walked through the Oilers' injury woes and speculated on how those situations will play out, given how different each of these players are. The most notable injury, of course, would be to Matt Savoie, who will be expected to make a difference in the top six once he is back in the lineup. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, discussed some NHL rumours, worked through another round of Ask the Idiots questions, and finally, Hot and Cold Performers. While this week's episode followed the same general format, the Friday episode of ONR was all over the map with the lack of Oilers news. Even so, the boys had a lot of fun working through a few hockey stories before having the podcast wind up in the ditch from there. 🤝 SPONSORS 🙌 Powered by bet365 → http://www.bet365.ca/ (Use code: NATION) 🥙 Swiss Donair → https://swissdonair.com/ Hosted on Acast.

On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers in Global Series, the Elks' game against Winnipeg, another round of Ask the Idiots, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Edmonton Oilers going back to Germany for the 2027 Global Series, and which country the boys would love travelling to to watch the team play hockey. Whether it's actually going to the games in Germany or any of the hockey-mad surrounding countries, there are plenty of spots overseas that the boys would love to go to. Will they be able to convince Jay that this trip needs to happen? We say yes. Shifting gears, the guys turned the podcast to the latest rankings in The Athletic that had the Oilers listed as 31st overall in the league in terms of prospect depth. While some folks were upset about being dead last, the reality is that good teams with Stanley Cup aspirations tend to trade picks and prospects to better the team today. Up next, the guys broke down the clip of Josh Samanski from a German dating show, and how it was an unbelievable clip to watch, especially when you weren't expecting it. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, discussed the Edmonton Elks' game tonight at Commonwealth, worked through another round of Ask the Idiots questions, and finally, Hot and Cold Performers.

On today's podcast, the fellas discussed moving from Oilersnation to Daily Faceoff Edmonton, the Elks' game against Toronto, another round of Ask the Idiots, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Oilersnation moving to Daily Faceoff Edmonton and offered a behind the scenes look at how the decision was made. Given that there was a lot of misinformation about what happened, the boys started the podcast with a discussion about the reason for the change and offered a promise that the content you've grown to love will not be changing. They also discussed the plan for re-naming the podcast and what the approach is for the show going forward. Shifting gears, the guys turned the podcast to the Oilers and discussed the limited news that came out over the last week or so. Starting with the Oilers' goaltending depth, the guys wondered what the approach is for the Oilers' on their depth chart now that they have eight goalies signed on their pro ranks. They also spoke about Jeff Skinner signing a one-year contract in Switzerland, and how it's wild to see how quickly his long NHL career absolutely fell off a cliff. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, discussed the Edmonton Elks' hot run in the CFL, worked through another round of Ask the Idiots questions, and finally, Hot and Cold Performers.

The crew dives into the biggest Edmonton Oilers storylines, including whether Jake Walman can bounce back after a difficult season, why his new contract has landed him on a list of the NHL’s “worst contracts,” and what the Oilers should realistically expect from him this season. Plus, the guys debate Evan Bouchard’s place among the NHL’s best defensemen, whether Ike Howard can become a legitimate top-six player, and if Josh Samanski has done enough to earn a spot in the Oilers’ bottom six. They also break down the Edmonton Elks’ upcoming matchup with the Montreal Alouettes, get into the Nation’s donut bracket, and put their hockey knowledge to the test with Reece’s brand-new “I Can Name” game! And, of course, there’s plenty of nonsense along the way — from the worst foods to bring to a summer BBQ to the Ninja Slushie Machine and some very questionable takes. In this episode: 🏒 Can Jake Walman bounce back for the Oilers? 💰 Is Walman really one of the NHL’s worst contracts? 🔥 Where does Evan Bouchard rank among NHL defensemen? 🚨 What should we expect from Ike Howard this season? 🏆 Can Josh Samanski crack the Oilers’ bottom six? 🦌 Edmonton Elks vs. Montreal Alouettes preview 🍩 The Nation Donut Bracket 🧠 Reese’s “I Can Name” game ☀️ The worst things to bring to a summer BBQ 🥤 The Ninja Slushie Machine gets a massive endorsement Subscribe to Oilers Nation for more Oilers news, analysis, podcasts, live shows, interviews and plenty of chaos.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the non-Oilers the boys loved on teams they hated, the Elks' hot run, another round of Ask the Idiots, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about other NHL teams and specifically if there were any players on those teams that the boys loved even if they hated the team they played for. Whether it was Miikka Kiprusoff in Calgary or Corey Perry in Anaheim or Rick Nash on those terrible Columbus teams, there were a bunch of players the boys spoke about despite not necessarily liking their team. That also led to a discussion about players they currently despise for their success against the team. Shifting gears, the guys continued on with a conversation about Prime Video taking over Wednesday night hockey and three playoff series for the next 12 years. Given that hockey fans will need to add another subscription to watch games this year, the boys discussed whether or not the NHL is doing anything properly when it comes to growing the game. They also discussed Connor McDavid's comments on the Oilers' three-goalie setup, and whether or not anyone believes that this can last for more than a month or two. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, discussed the Edmonton Elks' hot run in the CFL, worked through another round of Ask the Idiots questions, and finally, Hot and Cold Performers.

Dubey breaks down the Oilers' revamped goaltending tandem featuring Frederik Andersen and Tristan Jarry, explains why Edmonton's new setup could help both netminders succeed, and shares why he still believes Devin Levi has the potential to become a high-end NHL goalie. He also gives his honest thoughts on Mike Babcock becoming the Oilers' head coach, discussing why the organization felt confident in the hire, the importance of earning a second chance, and whether Babcock can adapt his coaching style in today's NHL.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' troublesome contracts, the Elks' hot run, another round of Ask the Idiots, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about five different stories in Oilers history, and how the boys would rank them in terms of the most consequential stories in franchise history. From Sergei Bobrovsky stealing Game 1 in 2024 to the Griffin Reinhart trade back in 2015 to Zach Hyman getting injured in the middle of a playoff run, this exercise was not necessarily the most fun one to do. Given that there is no Oilers news happening at this point in July, the boys had to get creative with what to talk about for the delicious debate. Shifting gears, the guys continued on with a conversation about the worst contract rankings in the NHKL that were posted by The Athletic last week. For the Oilers, Dom Luczyszyn had both Trent Frederic and Jake Walman listed as the sixth and seventh worst contracts in the league, and the guys gave their take on whether those deals are as bad as they're made out to be. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, discussed the Edmonton Elks' hot run in the CFL, worked through another round of Ask the Idiots questions, and finally, Hot and Cold Performers.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' schedule, Matt Savoie extension talk, another goalie conversation, line combinations, and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about some of the recent contracts that were signed around the NHL over the last couple of weeks, and wondered how these deal could impact a potential Matt Savoie extension. While there has yet to be any chatter about an extension, it's hard not to think about what Savoie's next deal looks like. Should the Oilers feel some pressure to get something done, given how the rest of the league is adjusting their pricing? Shifting gears, the guys continued with a look at Colton Dach's new two-year contract, and talked about how it's nice that the Oilers have the cap space to get these things done without having to slide in under the cap by the skin of their teeth. From there, the boys did an Oilers schedule review after the NHL dropped the details yesterday, and broke down what it's going to be like when seven of those games are at 9PM or later. Needless to say, this year's NHL schedule is going to be much different than what we've grown accustomed to. Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, discussed the Edmonton Elks' hot start in the CFL, worked through another round of Ask the Idiots questions, and finally, Hot and Cold Performers. While this week's episode followed the same general format, the Friday episode of ONR was all over the map.

Former Edmonton Oilers forward Ryan Jones joins Devan Dubnyk for a special summer edition of Ask Dubey, and the result is one of the most entertaining and nostalgic conversations yet. Dubey and Jonesy take a trip down memory lane, sharing stories from their time together with the Edmonton Oilers, including how their friendship began while anxiously waiting to find out if they had made the NHL roster. From training camp nerves to life in the NHL, the pair reflect on some unforgettable moments from their playing days. Ryan also opens up about his transition away from hockey and how he built a successful custom homebuilding business in Minnesota after retirement. He discusses the challenges of moving on from the game, finding a new passion, and why he knew it was time to start preparing for life after hockey. The conversation also revisits one of the most memorable nights of Jonesy's NHL career: his hat trick at Rexall Place. He shares what was going through his mind as he chased his third goal, what it felt like hearing Oilers fans chant "Jonesy!" throughout the arena, and why that moment remains one of the most meaningful memories of his career. Later in the episode, Jones talks about his decision to continue his career in Germany, the incredible hockey atmosphere overseas, and why playing in Cologne became one of the best experiences of his life. From packed arenas and passionate fans to rediscovering his offensive confidence, Jones explains why Germany was the perfect place to finish his playing career. The interview also features a heartfelt discussion about the late Joey Moss. Ryan shares some of his favorite memories of Joey, explains what made him such a beloved figure inside the Oilers locker room, and reflects on the unique relationships he built with players throughout the organization.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed NHL free agency, the Darnell Nurse trade, Freddie Andersen, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about what was the most surprising move in the early days of free agency. Whether it was the Darnell Nurse trade to San Jose, or Freddie Andersen signing in Edmonton for a scratch ticket, or Ryan Shea coming to town as a potential Nurse replacement, the Oilers got a lot of work done on day one without necessarily breaking the bank. As you'll hear, the boys all had different ideas about what went well and what might have been the best move of all. Shifting gears, the guys continued with the breaking news that dropped before the podcast after the Philadelphia Flyers put a massive offer sheet down on Leo Carlsson from the Anaheim Ducks. If the offer sheet is accepted or not, Carlsson will instantly become the highest paid player in the NHL despite not even hitting a point-per-game last season. The offer sheet also Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, discussed Canada's matchup against Morocco at the World Cup, worked through another round of Ask the Idiots questions, and finally, Hot and Cold Performers.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the NHL Draft, the latest Darnell Nurse rumours, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the NHL Draft and which takes we've had over the years that aged the best and worst. Whether it's thinking certain picks were going to be slam dunks, or believing that the Oilers ruined guys who were never going to make it, the boys discussed some of their favourite draft stories either good or bad. As you'll hear, expecting the boys on the podcast to correctly predict the draft or how these players will work out is basically impossible. Shifting gears, the guys continued on with a recap of the latest in the Darnell Nurse rumours, and whether the long-time defenceman will still be with the Oilers through the weekend. While many Oilers fans thought the draft would be a reasonable time to move Nurse, the reality is that this move might take a while to get something done. The guys also discussed whether or not there is a chance that he doesn't get traded at all? They also discussed the Oilers' situation between the crease, and whether it's acceptable or not if the tandem is a Ingram/Jarry tandem again. Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, discussed Canada's matchup against South Africa at the World Cup, worked through another round of Ask the Idiots questions, and finally, Hot and Cold Performers. While this week's episode followed the same general format, the Friday episode of ONR was all over the map.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Mike Babcock press conference, Jason Dickinson's new deal, Connor Murphy re-signing, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Mike Babcock press conference, and what everyone thought about our first look at the team's newest coach. While everyone was curious how today was going to go, what wasn't overly surprising was that Mike Babcock didn't really answer those questions with any honesty. Whether it was his refusing to admit faults in Columbus or tap-dancing some of the tougher questions, there are still plenty of unanswered questions that will only be solved in time. Shifting gears, the guys continued on with Babcock conversation by wondering what they think is most likely to come next now that the press conference is done. We got some free agents signed this week in Jason Dickinson and Connor Murphy, but with free agency kicking off in just over a week, we're about to find out if having Babcock behind the bench will impact the calibre of player the Oilers might attract. While it was great that Dickinson and Murphy believed in the team enough to extend, that doesn't necessarily mean the same will be true for players who Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, the first edition of Reece's Game, which ended up being tennable, and a quick chat on what to expect from Canada's matchup against Switzerland at the World Cup. If Canada draws or wins, they will punch their ticket through to the round of 32. If they win, they will begin the round at home instead of having to travel abroad.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Darnell Nurse trade rumours, where he might end up, the incoming Mike Babcock press conference, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Mike Babcock becoming the Oilers' next head coach, and whether there's anything he can do to win over the Oilers fans who are not at all happy about the decision. Given the Oilers are making this decision not caring about the fanbase's opinion, there's little doubt that the noise surrounding this decision will be incredibly loud. That led the boys to wonder what kinds of questions the media will be asking about the situation and what to expect going forward. Shifting gears, the guys continued on with another round of Darnell Nurse trade talk. The boys had David Pagnotta on Oilersnation Everyday on Friday afternoon, and he pitched a couple of ideas on what a Nurse deal might look like. The options seem to be that the Oilers either hold some salary for a better return, or accept a lesser trade to clear out every dollar. Is there a scenario where Edmonton can actually make a hockey trade? Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, Ask the Idiots questions, and Hot and Cold Performers to wrap up the week. The guys also discussed the Stanley Cup Final, the Hurricanes winning it all, and how the entire office is bought in on the World Cup. While the Nation HQ staff may not know what's going on very often, that hasn't stopped the squad from getting excited anyway. 🤝 SPONSORS 🙌 Powered by Bet365 → http://www.bet365.ca/ (Use code: NATION) 🥙 Swiss Donair → https://swissdonair.com/ 🎙️ Subscribe to Oilersnation for daily Oilers coverage, live shows, and exclusive player interviews → https://www.youtube.com/@oilersnation Hosted on Acast.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Darnell Nurse's trade request, where he might end up, the Mike Babcock situation, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether or not Darnell Nurse carries more risk than some fans are acknowledging. Given the minutes he plays and his constant availability, it's worth having a discussion about whether or not moving on from the player will create a bigger hole than some people think. While there's no debate that the contract has become an issue, there is still a strong hockey player there that the team will likely be without when the next season rolls around. Shifting gears, the guys continued with the Darnell Nurse conversation with a look at what trading him might even look like. His contract is obviously a massive part of the story when it comes to moving him, but that shouldn't suggest that Nurse carries zero value on the trade market. But what kind of trade should Oilers fans even expect? From there, the boys spoke about the never-ending coaching drama that's raging on after news broke earlier in the week that the team is interested in Mike Babcock. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, Ask the Idiots questions, and Hot and Colder Performers to wrap up the week. The guys also discussed the Stanley Cup Final and how the Carolina Hurricanes have a chance to close things out in Game 6 on Sunday night. They also discussed the NBA Finals and how the Knicks' comeback wins have been wild to watch. Speaking of wild to watch, seeing Knicks fans beating up Spurs fans just for wearing team merch ranks right up there for being nuts. 🤝 SPONSORS 🙌 Powered by Bet365 → http://www.bet365.ca/ (Use code: NATION) 🥙 Swiss Donair → https://swissdonair.com/ Hosted on Acast.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Mike Babcock coaching hire, the public's reaction to the move, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Tuesday emergency episode of ONR with a look at the Oilers' decision to bring in Mike Babcock as their new head coach. After weeks of hearing Bruce Cassidy's name as the main target for the job, it was a stunning development to see Mike Babcock's name attached to the team, given all of the recent history and baggage associated with this specific candidate. While there's zero doubt about the resume, the reality is that not much has gone well for Babcock since winning with Detroit nearly 20 years ago. Needless to say, the fanbase's reaction was as spicy as expected, and that's why we gathered for an emergency episode of ONR to break things down. Sticking with the Babcock conversation, we looked back at some of his coaching controversies and wondered whether the Oilers will be asking for him to change, or if the franchise is expecting that same guy to show up and turn things around. Given the franchise's messaging that they wanted a firmer approach behind the bench, it always seemed like it would be a short list of candidates, but the boys certainly didn't think there was a world where Babcock was the solution. Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a quick update on some of the drama that's kicked up at Nation HQ over the last week, including the growing Duck Mystery and the fallout from the office World Cup draft. 🤝 SPONSORS 🙌 Powered by Bet365 → http://www.bet365.ca/ (Use code: NATION) 🥙 Swiss Donair → https://swissdonair.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Welcome back to Ask Dubey! In this episode, former NHL goaltender Devan Dubnyk tackles a wide range of hockey questions from Oilers Nation viewers. Dubey breaks down why the Vegas Golden Knights have found success at the perfect time, why the Colorado Avalanche were surprisingly swept despite being one of the NHL's top teams all season, and whether the Edmonton Oilers' Stanley Cup window is still open with Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl leading the way. Dubey also dives into Edmonton's biggest offseason priorities, including the ongoing goaltending conversation and what needs to happen for the Oilers to get back into serious Stanley Cup contention. Is goaltending still the biggest issue? Can the Oilers rebound after a disappointing season? Dubey shares his perspective from a player's point of view. Later in the episode, he offers a behind-the-scenes look at the relationship between NHL goaltenders and their head coaches, sharing stories about coaches like Bruce Boudreau, Dave Tippett, Dallas Eakins, and John Hynes, while explaining how communication can make or break a goalie-coach relationship.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Darnell Nurse rumours, free agency, the Stanley Cup Final, line combinations , and more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Darnell Nurse rumours that kicked up this week after Mark Spector wrote an article at Sportsnet, citing that the player and team are heading for a split. And while the rumours certainly got Oilers fans talking, there is no guarantee that Stan Bowman will be able to find a suitor for a contract this big. There's also the angle that removing Darnell Nurse creates a 20-minute hole on the back end that will need to be filled. Shifting gears, the boys looked at a burgeoning scandal that's happening at Nation HQ after a bunch of tiny plastic duckshades had been appearing around the office. As you'll hear, the appearance of the Ducks around the office has prompted an offseason investigation that is taking up everyone's bandwidth until the mystery is solved. Getting back to hockey, the boys spent some time looking at the Stanley Cup Final, and how both teams are showing reasons why either could win. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers to look back on the week that was. With the conference finals nearly wrapped up, the guys spent the bulk of the podcast moving through a range of topics, most related to the Oilers' needs for the off-season, some not, but that’s the way things go on the Friday episode of ONR. 🤝 SPONSORS 🙌 Powered by Bet365 → http://www.bet365.ca/ (Use code: NATION) 🥙 Swiss Donair → https://swissdonair.com/ Hosted on Acast.
