Canada's Most Known makes a return but it's not met with much support. Some say it's the worst segment we've ever done. Dylan shares a study that claims female nurses are most likely to cheat. We don't know how they came up with this data but we definitely had to discuss it. Why always asking for a deal is bound to pay off.

Perogy perpetrators strike again!. Ukrainian restaurant, Saskitoba, had their cash register stolen so we wanted to do something to help. Thanks to everyone who pitched in to The Robbie Fund to support one of the best perogy places around!

Pepper's trip to the dump was educational in all the wrong ways. Robbie claims the rest of Canada is rooting against the Oilers. Pepper attempts to prove him wrong. More dead body disposal chat. Chicken chat. Pork chop chat. Are scary movies scarier at night?

Our audience is the best! We spoke to a woman named Amanda, from Regina, as she was gearing up to take a road trip to Edmonton with her son, Maguire. After watching a huge win in game 4, they just wanted to be in the city to experience some of the good vibes during this playoff run. Once our audience heard their story, the donations started to pour in. We were able to raise enough to turn their little trip into an experience of a lifetime. Listen to what we were able to do for Amanda & Maguire. THANK YOU EVERYONE!

Before Father's Day, we try to figure out who the best TV dads of all time are. The big deodorant debate. Dylan can't stop raving about his new deodorant which leads to a debate of how many swipes is too many swipes. Robbie may be applying WAY too much. Pepper and Dylan compete to see who made the best dad joke. Both are pretty bad though... We put Pepper's knowledge of country music to the test.

Dylan's friend is trying to claim it's not cheating if it's with someone you've already been with.

It's time for our annual chat with Edmonton senior scientist, Mike Jenkins, aka the bug expert. We pick his brain about everything from the mosquito forecast to the caterpillar infestation. It's always such an informative discussion!

You know we love a hot air balloon sighting but what are the other sights that unite us? What's it like to have a squirrel as a pet? Pepper, the bad dad, has the sleepover discussion with his daughter. He may have botched this one... It's National Hamburger Day so Dylan teaches Pepper a thing or two about burgers. Dylan and Robbie blow off work because it's so damn nice out in Edmonton.

Pepper & Dylan are known to argue but this argument escalates to a new level. They get so fired up when it comes to frozen milky desserts. A new fact of the year is discovered. For a group of people who love A&W as much as they do, you'd think they'd already know this Root Bear fact. Pepper is meddling in his daughter's love life again! He's seriously overstepping his boundaries by inviting his daughter's new boyfriend's mom for a chat live on the radio...

Pepper seems to LOVE making things awkward and that was obvious when he met his daughter's new boyfriend. Why can't the guy take a hint? Plus, the tragic life of being allergic to potatoes. And, another viral product we need to know if it's worth buying.

Nicole wound up winning $275,587 and Kidsport Alberta benefits from the other half. Listen to the moments when we called our lucky winner plus the aftermath of her big win.

Pepper tells the world his adult son still takes the time to cuddle his dad. Some of us find that strange. Is there an age where you should no longer cuddle your kids?

Sesame Street was almost cancelled so we take the time to remember all the best characters from the iconic kids show. Dylan is in a war with the scammers and now it seems like he's been targeted.

We come up with a list of the worst kinds of people in the world who aren't criminals. Pepper's fiancé makes some very insulting comments in regards to his new Oilers playoff shirt. Uncalled for, really! The police showed up at Dylan's house asking some questions. When they rang the doorbell they couldn't help but laugh at what they heard!

MATURE CONTENT: We continue with another episode in the Ask Us Anything series. Sam submitted a question that lead us down a number of avenues: "What has been the most impactful, sad, touching, rock your heart, wish you could do something to help, etc, situation you've encountered". Pepper claims he will never forget the time someone said their last words on the show. First, we chat about some of the initiatives that meant a lot to us like helping a sick listener live out her bucket list and buying a listener a car. Remembering following along with the guy who was trailing his cheating partner. The storyline of the lovable Tim Horton's Guy. Dylan thinks Pepper may be remembering some things incorrectly. The time Robbie witnessed a tragedy while live on location. The time we chatted with a survivor of a serial killer.

Another failed attempt to record a podcast in 10 minutes or less. Pepper is NOT happy with Dylan's decision to get new glasses. There's no one more obsessed with cord organization than Pepper. Do you have the same frustrations and confusion with the cord industry? The things we save and hoard for no apparent reason. Dylan still can't decide if he should become a fancy hat man and go against his girlfriend's wishes.

Dylan duped his girlfriend into getting out of bed to close the window. BAD BOYFRIEND! We debate the rules of who is responsible for this seemingly innocuous task. It could lead to relationship resentment. Another million dollar idea that we will fail to cash in on. Pepper discusses his bad swearing habit. Why is it such a hard habit to break? Who is the most muggable person on the show? Turns out everyone thinks it's Pepper and he attempts to defend himself. Maybe we're gross but we didn't realize couches are meant to be washed regularly. Pepper's gone decades without washing his but now we know. A chat about washing couch cushions leads to a debate about what's worse to deal with- stuck zippers or tangled knots. Robbie makes a list!

We play a teaser of Robbie The Intern 's new playoff song. First, we try our best at some celebrity impersonations. Dylan has a separate request for Robbie to produce. And, we try to figure out why Pepper is so mad. GO OILERS GO!

Ten Minutes Or Less: Dylan is shocked about some of the thing his mom said over the weekend. She hadn't seen her son in a while and pointed a few things out. Would you rather hear truth bombs to your face or would you rather people say them behind your back? Is there an age parents start to lose their filters? The observations people make that hurt our feelings. We can't believe how much our looks have changed over the course of doing a radio show together. Why can't healthy food taste better? Pepper's biggest complaint with hand washing dishes. We wrap it up with some updates on what's going on with the live show.

We celebrate the warm weather with Robbie' shorts song. We chat about the bugs that have started to emerge. A fun chat about pickleball.

We continue giving out spots to the Sidewalk Sale including to Ron, the eccentric helicopter pilot. Pepper claims he would sell his house the minute he found out it was haunted. Everyone else seems to want to embrace our paranormal friends! Dylan's take on bins VS junk drawers. Whether it's just a habit or a method to clear our minds, humans love to nibble on random things. We talk about the things we chew on but aren't meant to be chewed on. Is the best part of an Edmonton summer the early sunrises or the late sunsets?

We talk about all the pets we've had from childhood to adulthood. Robbie's oddly named pets. What it's like growing up in a Fish & Wildlife home. The time Dylan gave Pepper a skinny pig.

He's been dealing with some common frustrations while laundering so we discuss some hacks that could be helpful for everyone. Dylan's girlfriend has had enough of his wardrobe, specifically his pants. He wears the same old sweatpants every day and she is not a fan of how they make him look.

Pepper, foolishly, announces his “no snow guarantee” as we prepare to punish him!

We discuss some of the shows we've been binging or plan to binge. Commenting on some of Pepper's recommendations. Trying not to spoil the show "Paradise". Why is reality TV so bingeable? Yellowstone Yes or No? Jumping between streaming services.

Dylan and his girlfriend have been brainstorming a concept for our next show dating idea. With the popularity of our Bachelor Cam campaign, we've been anxious to start something new. There's "Love Is Blind" but this is "Love Can't See". Basically, we'd ask the audience to help us pick our "bachelorette" and all her potential matches. The twist is no one, including the audience, will get to see what anyone looks like. Hence, the "Love Can't See" title. We discuss how we could make this reality show type concept work with a radio show. Listen as we riff and attempt to invent something brand new to radio!

Robbie shared that he accidentally ripped out some of his girlfriend's hair while sleeping. He feels terrible about it. We debate whether or not we should be help accountable for the things that happen when we're asleep. Sleep eating is a legit thing! We have a conversation with someone who seems to always feast while she's sleeping. She never remembers but always wakes up to find the evidence. It's widely known that Pepper is a terrible driver. He reveals he got into another accident but wonders if he should be at fault. After discussing with the show, we learn he's actually a worse driver than we thought... Waiting on hold can be frustrating at the best of times. Pepper points out some of his biggest pet peeves when dealing with call centers. He's not alone! Based on how much a pain it is to clean up, we debate the worst possible things you can spill. Looks like we've all suffered a little bit of spill trauma. Dad jokes are common on the Pepper & Dylan Show, but what exactly defines a dad joke? Are there mom jokes? We discuss! Pepper is the leading authority on milkshakes on the show so he compiles a list of his favourite flavours. It is met with a lot of criticism but who doesn't love a good shake chat? We spend way too much time talking about trains and train crossings. We discuss whether it's ever acceptable for a sibling to refer to another sibling as being "hot". Some of us think it's super inappropriate! When we're sick, we sometimes keep a bowl nearby in case we can't make it to the bathroom. Often, it's a bowl that gets used for other things, like popcorn. We found out there are some very mixed feeling when it comes to reusing certain dishes. We discuss neighbourly shovel etiquette and if it's ever too early to shovel snow. How weird would it be to find out your ex lover is dating the ex lover of your current lover? We find out!

Ask Robbie Anything! Pepper & Dylan are granted 10 questions about Robbie's girlfriend. He's always been the single one on the show so it seems like new territory. This opens up some in depth conversations about relationships. Is having kids amazing or is that all a lie? When are we too old to have kids? Petty reasons to break up. When can you really be yourself in a relationship? Why do people let pets watch them in the bedroom? What's the toot situation? Why dating apps are such a struggle. Pepper's latest dating app idea.

An update on Pepper's potential celebrity couple friends. A question about cemeteries.

On St. Patrick's Day, Pepper realizes he doesn't know much about Ireland. Is that normal? How little does the rest of the world know about Canada? We talk to an Irish listener to see what he knew about Canada before moving here. The guys try to wrap their heads around why women's clothing seem to be lacking pockets. We hear from an audience member who shares how awesome it was to see a wedding dress with pockets. Women want pockets so give them more pockets! The creepiest things a former grocery store worker has ever found in a produce shipment. How do you properly clean a toaster? This may seem like a relatively simple question but Pepper has some major concerns. He saw a toaster cleaning hack on TikTok and we just want to make sure he doesn't electrocute himself... With news of the Bay closing, we get nostalgic and think of all the stores we used to love that no longer exist. Are doctors and veterinarians interchangeable? Would you rather a doctor operate on your pet OR have a vet operate on a human? Forget cats & dogs, Robbie shares his list of animals he would choose to have as pets in a dream world scenario. Pepper is a "hiccup survivor" and thinks his most recent hiccup attack was hard to deal with. Then, he finds out, some people have had it much much worse. We find out what it's like to have them more multiple days! Spring time means the return of the dreaded "bee boo" bird that torments Pepper. We still wonder why such an innocent little creature is able to drive him so crazy. Pepper's home is a revolving door of children, guests, and random characters. He never knows who's going to be living there. Now, his adult son is moving back home, his old room is spoken for, and he thinks it's acceptable for him to stay in his adult sister's bed. We try and make him understand why that's not a great idea. Edmonton is home to one of the world's biggest cowboy boots. It's hard to miss if you're driving on the west end. It's a popular landmark but not everyone is happy with it's size... Pepper made an off the cuff remark about cutting off his foot for a million dollars. We talk to a foot amputee who shares some realities about living life with one foot. We attempt to classify the degrees of injuries. When does something go from a boo-boo to an ouchie? Please remember, we are not medical professionals. If you have a bad owie, you should get that looked at by your doctor. We continue talking about injuries and wonder why Dad's are the ones who always seem to want to avoid the ER. Pepper wanted to avoid the ER so badly, he caused his daughter to go into a coma. True Story!

On Mario Day (March 10) Pepper remembers his excitement as a young lad when the newest Mario game hit the stores. Listener Lance boasts to have never fallen or tripped in close to 20 years. We grill him accordingly. An audience member joins us to vent about his disappointment with the bank's lack of enthusiasm for paying off a loan. Dylan can't believe what he was watching when he started streaming Meghan Markle's show on Netflix. He can't seem to hold in the hate. His hilarious criticism is met with some mixed reviews from the audience. Would you believe Pepper's cat is concerned about his health? This story will make you believe a small feline is enforcing his "no ice cream" diet. After Dylan innocently mentioned he was recently browsing a baby store, Pepper jumps to a major conclusion. Despite all of Dylan's denials, Pepper's excitement for a show baby takes over. Dylan shares another story where one of his neighbours deserves a massive shout out. The average person wouldn't be willing to help in this particular circumstance but Dylan's neighbour saved the day! Pepper may have the next big binge worthy show idea. An entire series on the dirtiest dishes and the best ways to clean them. Would YOU watch it? Pepper's daughter joins us to talk about the family's plan to go for matching tattoos. Pepper can't decide if it's a great parenting move or a terrible parenting move. The traffic lights in St. Albert are often complained about on the show. However, we chat with a listener who shared something worth celebrating while driving through the city. According to physics, cold doesn't exist. Pepper drops some knowledge he learned from his daughter. What's more shocking? The fact that cold doesn't exist or how most of us don't remember anything...

Ask Pepper & Dylan Anything: We start the podcast acknowledging it's been 10 years since being fired and scrubbed from the radio. We continue discussions on how to celebrate if we make it 20 years as a radio show. Then, we answer the audience question: "What trait would each of us like to have that the others possess? Would Dylan love to have Pepper's wit? Would Pepper love to have Dylan's cooking abilities? You'll have to listen to find out!
