The Pepper & Dylan Show

Every Friday, we revisit all the arguments and disputes we had during the week. We can never seem to agree on anything. We break it all down and determine who wins the week. This is the Rights & Wrongs for the week of March 9-13, 2026.

The show gets a little bit raw and personal as we discuss Pepper's sobriety. He didn't plan to bring this up today but some anniversary milestones are coming up. We talk about his previous and ongoing struggles with alcohol, how his family handled it, how much money he's saving, and more in this impromptu chat. Keep it up Big P!

Pepper has a question about opening and holding doors for others. We discuss some of the etiquette behind being courteous.

Robbie and his friends are planning on bringing a baby on their next mountain adventure. Pepper & Dylan are highly against it and issue several serious warnings. What's the worst that can happen. Actually, don't answer that...

We make it our mission to find out why Shaquille O'Neil is hanging out in Edmonton. He's one of the planet's most recognizable people and he's been spotted all over the area. If you see Shaq, tell him Pepper and Dylan say "sup?".

Pepper's mind is blown when he finds out the town of Vegreville was physically moved. Robbie & Dylan aren't convinced it's all that impressive.

Almost nothing excites Dylan as much as a big load moving down the highway. We hear from Chris, who used to move homes, and we drill him with questions. Fascinating!

Parents are going to relate to this BIG TIME. Pepper lets loose and rants about his bad day. Just when you think he's done, it gets worse and worse. Ah, the joys of parenting!

We remember and discuss all the treats we used to get packed in our lunches. Some of the old treats aren't like they used to be. We realize just how deprived Robbie was.

Pepper's son is on the job hunt. He's considering a job that would be PERFECT for Pepper. He's even thinking of applying for it himself. Don't tell Riley we posted this. Thanks! ;)

Costco food menu news leads us to discovering a new hotdog hack. Dylan does something with his Costco dogs that may change the way you eat them forever. Some are calling it brilliant.

"Fair is Fair". We react to the petition circling around that hopes to ban diploma exams. Some students were exempt from finals due to the teacher's strike, so other students think they should get the same treatment.

We speak with a young man who is a little nervous for his surgery to correct his lazy eye. We didn't know that was a thing! This is not about a lazy surgeon who operates on eyes.

Pepper finally snapped. After some "innocent" teasing, he set out to get revenge on Dylan and Robbie. What was supposed to be employee appreciation day turns out to be a rampage. Listen to the drama unfold as we wonder if this could break up the Pepper & Dylan show once and for all.

Is it appropriate for an adult to build and enjoy forts? We discuss the best kind of forts- from tree forts to snow forts. Why do men seem to like forts more than woman?

Everybody's 7th favourite radio contest is back and better than ever! It's "Dude OR Food". Would you choose the dude or would you choose the food?

The airline industry may soon be moving towards banning the use of phone audio without headphones. If you're a public FaceTimer or like having speaker phone conversations at full volume, you may be asked to keep it down. Finally, an industry is paving the way to a more respectful society.

Sports parents are well aware of this but Dylan tries to wrap his head around the competitiveness of kid's sports. He was shocked to find out how much fighting there is between the parents, let alone the players.

One of the most requested clips we get is to play the audio of Pepper screaming when Dylan threw a jar of spiders at him. Mean? Yes. Funny? YES! It opens up the door to talk more about spiders. This may not be for the arachnophobes out there...

Dylan is so certain the weather forecast is wrong, he was willing to make a pretty bold bet. If it hits 17 degrees in Edmonton on Saturday, he has to wear a wig for an entire week. Come on Mother Nature!

Pepper can't stop talking about his brand new toaster. We help a husband with a Valentine's Day dilemma. Animal chat! We discuss some of the animal hybrids we didn't know were real. Did you know narwhals are a real creature in the animal kingdom? Dylan speaks out against Tate McRae. Many Canadians aren't happy with her latest commercial.

Dylan learned something that shocked him to his core. He shares it as a PSA since it's a very serious safety issue. What are some other things we should know but no one tells us? Pepper's daughter exposes him for being a dummy. I realization about chicken wings. Sad news about juice. Some Charlie Puth appreciation.

Are we still judging people by their tattoos? If a doctor was covered in face tattoos, would that make you ask for a second opinion? We need the help of the audience to settle this one. How long does a relationship have to be for it to be considered serious? What should you go through in a relationship to really test the waters? We make a list of all the things you should experience in a relationship before you know it's meant to be. A fact about Cookie Monster that blew our minds. It may or may not be the fact of the year! What it's like to get hit by lightning.

On Monday, February 9th Robbie The Intern will head up on the roof of the A&W in Mayfield Common. He won't come down until he raises $20,000 for the Alberta Cancer Foundation OR Team Canada wins 20 medals. Last week Dylan opened up about his sisters Chelsea's recent terminal cancer diagnosis. Robbie is dedicating his time on the roof to her. The donation link will go live next Monday when Robbie goes up on the roof. Please help out, if you can, and get Robbie off that roof!

The time Dylan was challenged to eat 500 chicken nuggets. He pulled it off right at the finish line!

This is the moment Robbie was officially hired on the show. Our old boss wanted to send him packing but the support for Robbie was too strong!

Remembering all the poor fashion choices we made 20 years ago. Some of us still rock those styles today. Dylan shares the latest beef he has with an Amazon delivery driver. Some support for Dylan and his sister before her first chemo treatments. We play an old song we had produced that was very controversial at the time. Brace yourself, it is terrible! We actually had to make a formal apology when we played it years ago. We find out who wins the week when we recap the rights and wrongs.

Pepper and Dylan get super defensive over a mean text directed at Robbie The Intern. Pepper goes full mama bear mode and really doesn't hold back. There's empty threats, there's drama, and there's regret, but our hater winds up having a change of heart. Who doesn't love a happy ending?

We love to have fun but sometimes we can't avoid the tough conversations. Dylan is really broken up about some news he received about his sister's health. This hits close to home for a lot of people and the support comes rolling in.

Dylan can't believe how someone he knows spells their kid's name. We discuss the popularity of spelling names in a very unique way. Is spelling you child's name differently setting them up for failure in life? We announce the results in the heated battle between Pepper's cat and Robbie's girlfriend's cat. Are people on Facebook nicer than people on Instagram? The big birthday snub. Dylan wonders if he should be attending his sisters chemo appointments. Is that something important for a sibling to do? Elon Musk News. Robbie and Pepper could be riding naked around the Henday if a certain Oiler gets a hattrick in tonight's game.

Pepper's son's potential roommate situation. Things that lead to fights with the people you live with. Will anyone rent a home to 4 teenagers? Is the dishes the biggest issue roommates disagree over? Dylan has a new money saving technique. What are the worst lines you have to stand in?

Getting pinched at an Akon concert. What are the worst places to get pinched? Pepper describing his chaotic life may give you anxiety. Is a missed call the new voice mail? calling in sick etiquette. Pepper's dad's new walker. Robbie is the sunglasses inside guy. Robbie may be able to tell the future. Dealing with a cat in heat. Pepper and Robbie go head to head to see who has the cuter cat.

Robbie The Intern used to take his rusty trombone out to make random announcements, help with celebrations, and spread important news. This time, he helps someone quit and it may have been a little bit harsh.

After months of different efforts to raise money, we get to buy a very deserving person a car. It may be a used one but it works!

Don't ask us how the conversation ended up here but Pepper wonders what it would be like to be stuck in a giant jar. It turns into a discussion about what would be the best food jar to be stuck in. Pepper's roommate/fiancé/partner/girlfriend has baby fever. Sounds like Pepper is considering having another one. Edmonton doesn't land very high on the list of Canada's best destinations. What are some of the best destinations that got snubbed? How many gloves is too many gloves? We wrap up the week by recapping the rights and the wrongs.

More memories from 2006. What were some of Edmonton's best clubs? We remember some of the spots we used to party at. Robbie dug up an old song he made to let Pepper know how old he was. Dylan found some audio he recorded from one of our Bounce Birthday Bashes. Such a blast from the past. Can you claim you make the best waffle if you use a waffle mix? Are waffles better than pancakes? Pepper's mind is blown when he finds out about tater tot waffles.

More memories from the past 20 years. We replay some old nursery rhymes Robbie remixed in an attempt to give Pepper's son some swag in the school yard. Pepper thinks his daughter's boyfriend is a lot like him. We ask her what she thinks about that and she is not very receptive. We find out what it's like to be a mom to a super super tall kid. Are kids getting taller? We play another classic song from the archives. This one is a celebration for the first time you pass gas in front of your significant other. Pepper needs everyone's help making a purchase decision. Should he buy an old urinal from his favourite football team's old stadium? You're never too old to learn something. This is Dylan's new mission is to learn and wants everyone too know you're never too old to start.

Is Dylan finally going to move to Devon? We learn that Dylan wants to eventually retire in Thailand. Is travelling to Thailand longer than taking a rocket to the moon? Some feedback on the new condensed seating offered by WestJet. We discuss the possibility of a Billy Idol Biopic. Then, we name all the famous people named Billy we can think of. Dylan is very confused by a social media post on the KiSS Edmonton accounts. Why does everyone think Pepper & Dylan are dating. Some comparisons are made involving the show "Heated Rivalry". We play some Robbie The Intern throwback songs. A brief history of Robbie getting hiring. Then, we play the potty training song he made for his niece.

Pepper invented a new sandwich and it sounds incredible. Is spinach dip the best dip of all time? We put together a top dip list and try and determine what should count as a dip. Another "good dude" salute. We make a grown man cry. Do people actually use their sun roofs? We hear from someone who had their sunroof explode suddenly. What's more common, getting struck by lightening or getting pooped on by a bird? After his died suddenly, Pepper shares his wild fridge adventure. He has a public service announcement for anyone who owns a fridge.

We often get requests to play the clip of Pepper being tormented by the jar of spiders but this is the full break. We've had some tense moments on the show over the past 20 years and it's probably because we do cruel things, like this, to each other. Sorry Pepper!

Remember this? Dylan was mysteriously absent from work one day. Turns out, he decided to head to California to be a part of the hunt for Bigfoot. If this didn't turn out to be a scam, Dylan would be a part of history!

We may have identified the oldest mattress in the city. Dylan is left wondering where a mystery pail in his basement came from. We get a visit from Pepper's mom, Trudy. We launched some merch items as a tribute to her. The struggles of having to manage loved ones estates after they pass. We make a list of the best sports movies. Is Cool Runnings the best ones? It turns out, we have the ashes of a famous dog's relatives in our studio show urn. We wrap up the week by recapping the rights and the wrongs.

We argue about something that really doesn't matter in any way and spend much too much time doing it. The good scale debate. Dylan takes a stance on allowing pets in stores. He thinks people should not be allowed to bring their fur babies into every establishment. Robbie makes the argument that kids can be just as much of a nuisance as pets. Pepper has a very wholesome reaction to getting a surprise present from Dylan and his stepson. If you know Pepper, you'd know he has a massive love of elastics. Pepper makes a shocking observation about Dylan's current relationship. Now it seems like Dylan's world is shook!

Do you offer milk as a beverage to guests? Is milk just for kids? An Ozzy Osbourne biopic is in the works. We make a list of the biopics we're surprised they haven't made yet. Pepper has some questions about scammers. We have some concerns about phone number harvesting. We chat about the movie theater that decided to restart a movie for some late customers. Some other movie theater horror stories.

Dylan thinks he has the ultimate loophole when it comes to BOGO type sales. He learned this from a 9-year-old on TikTok so it may not be the best loophole. We wish a brave man good luck on his vasectomy and Pepper gives him some sound advice. Since he's a 2 time vasectomy survivor, Pepper has some tips and warnings to make his recovery better so it doesn't need to be redone. We hear some horror stories from companies taking advantage of their customers. Is it okay for a mechanic to use your car for personal errands if you have to leave it at the shop anyway? Do some dry cleaners wear your clothes? Do you let plumbers use your bathroom? Pepper has a question about Relish. We rely on the audience to settle an on going argument between Robbie & Pepper. We can finally put it to rest!

Are you supposed to write your name on lotto tickets when you give them as a gift? Pepper criticizes his ex-wife of being a gift giving jerk. What's the etiquette on making exchanges with gift receipts? If you could find out ONE THING from the future, what would that be? Pizza chat takes over the show for a little bit. Our idea, that's already an idea, that would be a game changer for pizza places.

Today is the 20th anniversary of the show's launch in Edmonton. We spent the morning playing archived audio, sharing memories, and reminiscing with the audience over some of our most iconic moments as a show. It's been a wild ride and we've loved almost every minute of it. We have some BIG things planned to celebrate all year long. Here are some highlights from our anniversary show.

By request, Dylan tells the story of the time he got fired from KFC for getting in a fight with a customer on Twoonie Tuesday. We discuss some of the other struggles customer service representatives face. Some Edmontonians are venting their frustrations about the city's snow removal so far. Dylan thinks we should ease up on the snow removal professionals. Chore quirks. Do you get obsessive over things and can't stop until you're done? Do certain types of obsessive people clash in relationships?

He thought they were grown up, moving on, and starting their own lives but that's not the case anymore. Pepper reacts to finding out his other kid has also decided to move home. From an empty nest to a full house in a matter of weeks. Parents can certainly relate to his mindset here.

Recapping some indulgences over the holidays. The present that influencers say will shake your fat away. Another Pepper anecdote. Is a bad headache actually a good headache? A candidate for our 2026 fact of the year. The super lame order Pepper is super excited to get. Some new items and a brand new look to our merch store at pepperanddylanshow.com. Happy new year!

Ahead of our 20th anniversary, we wanted to share our 3 part podcast series that recounts some of the history of The Pepper & Dylan Show. We regularly get asked "what the hell happened to you guys" that time you were taken off the air. This series explains a LOT. Thank you to former show producer, Sean, for producing this for us!
