Mornings at the Cabin

The owners of One of a Thai are heading to Toronto today to compete on Family Feud Canada! They're about to air their "dirty laundry" on national TV... but there's only one question we really want answered: How is your food SO ridiculously good?! And if they ask for the secret ingredient... we fully support pleading the fifth.

With so much going on this weekend, the one thing Wheeler and Jasmine can't stop thinking about is the BBQ!

Some weather reports are indicating there may be funnel cloud activity over a large swath of the NWT. But don't get too excited. Certainly not as excited as Lekter might get over a mispronounced name.

Were you aware that the Commonwealth games were still happening? Well, thanks to Gabriel Langton, I don't think we'll ever forget again.

Snow in July?! Lekter talks Christmas in July as snow blankets the NWT, while Jasmine slowly catches on to what it all means.

The more time Lekter spends with Jasmine, the more concerned he becomes about her. From an obsession with watching people eat, to her very odd sleep schedule...and NOW...a video trend-turned-movie that sounds reminiscent of a Windows '95 screensaver.

Is it one bear moving around town? Is it several? Is it Bhante Andrew riding a bear, or perhaps, traveling with a bear entourage in and out of town for their daily alms??

Maybe it was the smoke fogging up our brains. Perhaps the dust clogging up our lungs. Or a unique sort of hazy brew concocted by the combination...but there have been some boners.

The 46th annual Folk on the Rocks was a huge success. BIG big thanks, as always, to all of those who make this festival so special.

We've floated, and now we're flying, head-first into Folk on the Rocks!

Hannah and Luke from the legendary Cows Go Moo join the show this morning to talk about their upcoming return to the Folk on the Rocks stage this weekend, and why it's their favourite place in the world to play!

It's only a controversy if you admit that something controversial has occurred. Otherwise, it's just business.

We've got new podcast ideas for Mooresy. Either: David Wilcox: a deep dive OR "The Birds and the Bees" with Mooresy, Reid Hildebrandt and Taz Stuart. 

Actor Sam Neill, also known by an entire generation of Milliennials as Dr. Alan Grant, has passed away. Very sad day, but to quote his iconic Jurassic Park character, "the point is, you are alive when they start to eat you."

Only ONE WEEK until FOLK ON THE ROCKS. Like Harrison Ford, we're getting frantic!

Jasmine feels that she may be easily scammed. Lekter likely would have been scammed just last week, had the scammer not lost confidence midway through the scam.

Every once in a while, we need to take a step back. Get away from the doom and gloom. Close the comments. Touch grass. Or in this case, a stand-up paddleboard. With your cat.

A runaway ferry at the Peel river crossing has caused headaches and delays. Or, adventures and "will make for a good story", depending on how you want to look at it!

Comedian Henry Sir played two shows at the Underground this past weekend and...well...he was great. As was MOST of the audience.

Two weeks until Warm the Rocks Friday! Folk on the Rocks Executive Director, Teresa Horosko joins the show to chat about what's going on, what's coming up, as well as a look back to last year's ELECTRIFYING Warm the Rocks night.

For the purposes of Cabin Radio's Northern Knockout bracket, 'Canada Day' has been rebranded.

When Taz Stuart talks mosquitos, we listen. Then swat. And then continue listening. 

The Cabin Radio news team has DONE IT AGAIN. They've managed to make the Fifa World Cup tournament exciting and relevant to the entirety of the NWT. AND left out Yellowknife. Bravo!

The annual Survivor: Yellowknife edition game wrapped up this past weekend at Prelude Lake. Do you have what it takes to be next year's champ?!

When elected officials "break" the news, trust in "the news" tends to become broken.

Weeks ago, it was announced that an NWT resident had won 2.5 million on the lotto 649. Wheeler unofficially claimed it. Turns out, that doesn't mean anything.

But it's also worth celebrating, as Yellowknife's "Franklin avenue" has now, officially, been renamed, "Wıìlıìdeh avenue."

Open up the window, sucka! I'm gonna scream my balls off!

YK Wood Fired Pizza, considered by some to be the best pizza in Yellowknife, had a building fire early this morning. Devastating news for those who love pizza, which is, of course, everyone.

This October, for the first time in 74 years, Hockey Night in Canada will NOT be broadcast on CBC. It is the end of an era that has helped define 'Canadiana' for generations.

BRAND NEW AUTHOR ALERT. Friend of the Cabin, Dana Bowen, joins to talk about her upcoming launch event for her new book, "Girls With Fake Names."

Be it at this past weekend's Yellowknife Pride events, or patrolling the Inuvik dump's now-electrified perimeter fence, there was no shortage of bears.

We all know a Heartland lover in our lives. Or at least somebody FROM the Heartland. 

The 2026 FIFA World Cup tournament starts today. Protest efforts are already being tested, as here we are talking about it. And the longer the tournament goes, the harder it's going to be for Wheeler to stick to his guns.

Four friends have set out on a canoe trip of a lifetime. Something that Wheeler thought about doing many years ago, but much to everyone's surprise, never did.

Wheeler, Lekter and Mooresy discuss the trials and tribulations of getting old and falling down. Literally and metaphorically.

Tyler WhiteKeyes came by studio 1 to chat about Jams, Glam, and Gams! Let's raise some money for our dear friend Robin.

Who is going to win this year's Main Stage Showdown?! With all our head-banging, we can't tell.

Rent is bound to go up for some people, but if the percentage is THAT big, there's going to be some protests..

The Twin Falls Park Trail has been experiencing riverbed erosion that has made the trail infrastructure usafe for use, and closed to the public. Just for the record, in no uncertain terms, Mornings at the Cabin recommends obeying all warnings and signage.

Punk rock legend, Smelly (Erik Sandin) of NOFX joined the show this morning to talk about the band's documentary film, their legacy (not the word he would use) and this week's screening at the Underground!

Wheeler has a boat. Sort of. AND he knows how to use it. Well, mostly.

Cabin Radio ain't the be-all, end-all. We've heard it many times. But it's been a while since we've heard it from an MLA...

Did we jinx the Montreal Canadiens by not getting to Eli's message until the morning after Game 4? Possibly.

Yup, it's about Pizza. And when we eventually, one day, make Pizza Week happen, it looks like we may have another participant!

Fancy Timbits, sprinkles, two donut places inside Center Square Mall...does...does Yellowknife need a DONUT WEEK?!
