Mornings at the Cabin

Two days until Christmas. Ollie and Miriam take over studio 1 before Christmas is upon us. What could that entail?

Everyone is gone for Christmas-but you know what? Ollie brings his English wit, Jasmine adds her Gen Z flair, and together they deliver a quick Yellowknife Christmas chat from Studio 1. They're not going anywhere.

AJ's last show for 2025 and Jasmine's first time running the board. Better will come with the New Year, unless the real life "Hunger Games" actually happens...sorta.

Much has happened in 2025. But of course, Wheeler and Miriam look back on the year, and even on what happened yesterday. Polar bears, police raids, and memories. Nothing better than that!

It's that magical time of the year. Santa is watching, Christmas music is playing on an endless loop, and somehow…you're expected to walk 1,658 km. Walk to Tuk has officially entered full beast mode. Dress up, get those steps in, outrun the holiday treats, and maybe win a prize along the way!

A passionate Morsey, an extra-optimistic Wheeler, and a overstimulated Jasmine. The chaos that went on today brought out some alter egos and bird sounds.

Fun fact: Lead in water was once considered a good idea. Don't worry, today's pop trivia is much more safe. Even considering today's PCPTP is the last one of 2025!

Remembering Rob Reiner and his movies. Surprisingly, that's much easier than remembering what went on this past weekend.

Miriam makes her co-hosting debut!

Spooky season isn't over just yet, even with Christmas only 15 days away. The cast of "Beetlejuice Jr" stopped by studio 1 to talk about their upcoming musical adaptation of the iconic film. And later on, stick around for some important news from Wheeler and a special guest.

Listen to all the holiday markets going on this season! If you listen closely... you'll eventually hear Australian accents drifting around studio 1, casually chatting about beach balls and "Deck the Halls", as if Christmas and summer had a slightly chaotic baby.

Arctic Winter Games, Movie Buffs, and Haunted Brothels! Hear about the changes, stay for the cinema, leave because money doesn't grow on trees for some preposterous reason..

A mutiny appears to be brewing inside Studio 1...where it's been revealed to Wheeler that "Ollie-days" doesn't officially begin this year until Xmas Eve *GASP*

The stairwell leading up to Pilots Monument needs to be re-built. The price tag seems a bit *ahem* steep.

The weather outside the Cabin is snowy and cold, but the hot takes being made INSIDE the Cabin are straight up SPICY.

Did you grow up watching North of 60? Or have you spent some or the majority of your life LIVING North of 60? Well then HOLY MOLY do we have a podcast reco for you!

To summarize Saturday Night's Santa Claus parade broadcast on Cabin Radio: The Grinch showed up late, The Grinch got angry, Santa Claus warmed his icy heart...and Krampus creeped out everyone.

Let's hear it for the unsung heroes! The rhythmless role models! The backstage beauts! Yes, the modern dance dad is truly a marvelous creature.

K'atl'oDeeche First Nation has released it's highly anticipated 2025 community banned list! If you didn't make the cut...better luck next year.

They bang on tong-tinglers, blow their foo-flounders, crash on jang-jinglers and bounce on boing-bounders! And now, they're looking to do it with extended hours.

Craft market season is in FULL SWING. Earrings flying off the artist tables as fast as they can make them. Meanwhile, Wheeler needs to pierce or get off the pot.

In most of Canada, harvest season is long over. But in Snowking country, the harvest begins now!

It's time to announce the prize winners for Burger Week 2025! Well...not all of them. Not on this show at least. There are too many! And Wheeler is very susceptible to paper cuts!

A changed man. Older. Wiser. Exhausted. Having now done a full-on solo travel with his young son. His eyes are open. And bloodshot.

It's Challenge Cup time!

You know him as the North's most trusted newsman. But have you seen him as the North's least trusted woodsman?

They might have gotten the score wrong. None of the stats have been vetted. And they definitely didn't watch the game. But Wheeler and Jasmine did their best to recap the 112th Grey Cup anyway.

Winter is here. Christmas is coming. The goose is getting fat. Please shop local for an old man's hat.

Your 2025 Folk on the Rocks Artist in Residence, Justine Giles, dropped by the Cabin this morning to chat music, her upcoming Yellowknife shows, and of course, play a tune!

Wheeler has thrown down the challenge. It's up to you to eat the burgers. No no, not just a couple. It's up to you to eat ALL THE BURGERS.

We don't have a running tally, advanced stats, or anything else official to back up this claim...BUT...the early polling suggest that this is going to be the BIGGEST YK BURGER WEEK YET.

A big weekend lies ahead with shows, movies and burgers galore! But also, Tik Tok trends. We're never prepared for those. Luckily we have Jasmine around to help.

They're not always great. In fact, often times they're not even good. But Gremlins 3?...well. Let's just say we're expecting better than Happy Gilmore 2.

YKIFF starts TONIGHT. Burger Week begins TODAY. Parcel of Rogues starts another run of shows for Pantalone Runs for Mayor TOMORROW. OH MY.

Wheeler's heart is slowly healing. But the grieving process is still in early stages. Only 146 days til next season.

The 19th annual Yellowknife International Film Festival kicks off THIS WEEK. Pair that with Burger Week kicking off THE SAME DAY and you've got yourself one hell of a date night lined up.

Forget everything you thought you knew about the night before Halloween. Or, at least, forget everything you thought Lekter knew about the night before Halloween.

Parcel of Rogues is putting on TWO shows in less than TWO weeks, and they want you to come have fun with them! Rocky Horror runs TOMORROW through November 1st, followed by Pantalone Runs for Mayor, November 6-8!

Whether it's seeing a shooting star and making a very unselfish wish, or getting a flu/covid vaccine double-shot and feeling like crap the next day for your community, there are many ways to be a superstar!

Our quaint little town of Yellowknife has been made that much more quaint and little as part of Toronto's Little Canada exhibit. Also featured: Little Tuk!

Game 1 of the biggest World Series in HISTORY goes down tonight in Toronto. And, breaking news: Lekter has a controversial opinion on a movie you might love.

A thick cloud of smoke billowed from just outside of downtown Yellowknife yesterday afternoon, which turned out to be coming from a wall tent fire at an encampment site. Luckily, nobody was injured. And online reaction was, as always, measured.

After a hiatus last October, Boolesque is officially back in it's spooky home at Top Knight. Legendary Boo host Rex Holmes joined us this morning to gently guide any newbies (or remind any vets) on how to be a good Burlesque show audience member.

Ok Blue Jays...OK. We see you. And all of us not named Jesse Wheeler are booking our seats on the bandwagon! (Wheeler, of course, being the driver)

Meet Lenny. A baby muskox in the brand new children's book,"Maww! Maww!" Finally, Yellowknife has a local muskox mascot that EVERYONE can feel comfortable rallying around!

The 112th Grey Cup halftime show performer has been announced! You heard of Eminem??? Well...THIS guy feuded with him once! Briefly!
