Send us a textWhat happens when a tiny heart warrior inspires a movement of love and advocacy? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Haley Graham, whose daughter Emberly Dawn was born with multiple heart defects, including a rare Taussig-Bing anomaly. Haley takes us through the emotional journey from that first concerning ultrasound to the founding of Embers of Love, a nonprofit that's changing lives across Manitoba.Haley shares the raw truth of those early days—the quiet car ride home after receiving concerning news at her 41-week ultrasound, being flown from Winnipeg to Edmonton for emergency treatment just days after Emberly's birth, and the month spent in a hotel across from the children's hospital. Her story captures both the inherent isolation of receiving a CHD diagnosis and the profound community support that emerged to sustain them.The name "Embers of Love" came from a touching observation made during Emberly's hospital stay—that this tiny baby somehow "spreads embers of love to everyone she meets." What began with handmade keychains and candles has blossomed into a significant advocacy organization that's participated in over 35 initiatives since 2023. From donating sound machines to the NICU to organizing craft kits for Heart Camp campers, Haley shows how personal experience can transform into meaningful community action.Most moving is Haley's reflection on how Amberlee has become "the flame to our family fire," completely shifting their perspective on what matters in life. Her story reminds us that even in our most vulnerable moments, we can find purpose, create lasting change, and spread those precious embers of love to others walking similar paths.Ready to get involved in supporting the CHD community?

It's hard to believe that today, July 31 2025, marks 38 years since the devastating Edmonton tornado on July 31, 1987—often remembered as “Black Friday.” That day, a powerful F4 tornado tore through the city's southeast, leaving a trail of destruction and heartbreak. It claimed 27 lives and injured hundreds more, becoming one of Canada's deadliest and costliest natural disasters.Since then, it's stood as a sobering reminder of nature's force, but also of the resilience and solidarity of Albertans. Each year around this time, many still pause to reflect, remember, and honor those affected.Time moves forward, but the stories and strength of that day remain.This episode it pulled from our Patreon in memory of this day 38 years ago.

Welcome to episode #237!

It's Wednesday smack dab in the middle of the NHL dead zone, which means a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never is ready to recap what was another slow news week in Edmonton. On today's podcast, I discussed the Oilers' potential extension list, Connor McDavid, Stan Bowman updates on the negotiation, and whatever else has happened over the last seven days.With not much going on around the NHL these days, I started this week's podcast with a trip to the rumour mill after Bob Stauffer speculated on Oilers Now that the Oilers could be getting some significant business done over the next month. Of course, nothing Bob said is written in stone, but that doesn't mean I wasn't still able to have some fun with the rumours. Sticking with contract extensions, I ran through the latest rumblings about Connor McDavid's upcoming extension, including potential dollar and term numbers from Frank Seravalli.Finally, I wrapped up this week's episode of BLTN with a Righteous Sack Beating about shrinkflation before wrapping up the podcast with another round of voicemails. The voicemail was quieter this week, but the messages were still as fun as ever. As always, the voicemails are a fun way to wrap up the show and give everyone a chance to share their thoughts. Another hearty thank you to everyone who contributed to this week's episode, because having all of you in the mix makes the show so much better.Want to leave a voicemail for next week's show?

It's always special when I get to sit down and podcast with someone I look up to. These guests are always busy people who could be doing so many other things with their time, so when they choose to spend multiple hours having a conversation with me it means the world.  The first podcast I did with Mike Dambra was one of my favourites to date and this second one did not disappoint. He was so willing to go deep and be vulnerable with his personal journey I felt I got to see a very different version of Mike on this episode. Not only did we talk comedy, psychedelics, depression and showbiz but he also dispensed some amazing wisdom for comics new and old that I think will really help some people. Mike is one of the greatest talents onstage today and you definitely want to catch a show of his. He is performing at Yuk Yuk's Edmonton this weekend Friday and Saturday (August 1+2) as well as my show in Slave Lake August 16th (ticks on eventbrite linked below).If you enjoyed the podcast please share and let us know.

Dive into the unexpected as I broadcast live from a bubble bath in a Roman-themed fantasy hotel room in Edmonton, Canada! This episode captures the beautiful absurdity of comedian life on the road – homeless but somehow lounging in luxury accommodations that feel straight out of a movie.The cultural differences between America and Canada come alive through everyday experiences that are slightly tilted from what we're used to. There's something fascinating about walking through a McDonald's drive-thru (they actually encourage it here!), sampling Canadian cannabis that hits differently than stateside varieties, and watching television that alternates between familiar American programming, French broadcasts, and content that would never make it past US censors.Canadian hospitality takes center stage as I compare my elaborate Roman-themed room with its hand-painted ceilings to my tour mate's princess suite. Meanwhile, I'm constantly on alert for that quintessentially "Canadian" experience that seems perpetually just around the corner. When a fan recognizes my companion on the street, it's a reminder of how comedy connects us across borders.Beyond the laughs, there's something genuinely thought-provoking about travel – how the extended daylight hours affect the rhythm of life, how subtle differences in everyday interactions reveal cultural values, and how a simple change of scenery can provide fresh perspective. As I contemplate life from this bubble bath, I'm struck by how a single decision to sign up for an open mic 15 years ago created a path that led to this perfectly ridiculous moment.Join me for this uniquely intimate episode filled with observations about ugly locals, odd hotel features, and surprising cultural discoveries – all delivered with grateful reflection on the strange and wonderful journey of a touring comedian. After all, where else can you contemplate life's mysteries from a Roman bathtub in Canada?

In hour two, Mike Halford & guest host Josh Elliott-Wolfe look chat with Sports 1440 Edmonton's Jason Gregor (1:56) about the off-season the Oilers have had thus far, plus they speak with Whitecaps head coach Jesper Sørensen (24:09) ahead of tomorrow's home matchup versus Sporting KC.

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 Western Conference contenders, goaltending, the Jays' run, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Western Conference contenders and whether any of the teams with Stanley Cup dreams have gotten better. Outside of maybe the Vegas Golden Knights, who locked in Mitch Marner as their big free agent play, there aren't many other clubs you could say legitimately got better. Maybe that's the boys drinking the July Kool-Aid, but everyone on the podcast still feels bullish on Edmonton's chances to get through the west.Next, we kicked off the news segment of the podcast with a quick recap of the limited news items that had occurred over the last week and speculated on whether we would receive any new updates over the next handful of days or weeks. With nothing happening, we looked at some quotes from Corey Perry about leaving Edmonton, Warren Foegele's wedding, and ran through a few quotes from Stan Bowman about the goaltending. 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. With just over two months left until the start of the 2025-26 season, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode talking about why we should feel confident heading into this next season and how the Oilers are a much different hockey team this time around. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Oil Stream returns with a heated debate — who are the biggest villains in Oilers history?   In this episode, Reid and Hernan dig into the all-time discussions of players, coaches, and teams that Oilers fans have loved to hate. From playoff heartbreakers to regular-season thorns in the side, they explore the names that still get a rise out of Edmonton to this day. Was it a rival goaltender who always stood on his head? A superstar who torched the Oilers year after year? Or maybe a former Oiler who came back to haunt them?   The Oil Stream is presented by Boston Pizza!

On this off-season episode of 2 Guys & A Goalie, the crew takes a detour from the usual playbook to dive into a unique angle: the secretive world of football coaches and their paranoia around letting decisions leak to the media. How does that level of control compare to NHL bench bosses, who tend to play things a bit cooler, even when the stakes are just as high? And in a moment of reflection, we tip our caps to a legend, sharing a few thoughts on the recent passing of Hulk Hogan. The Hulkster was larger than life in and out of the ring, and his impact on sports entertainment won't be forgotten.  

Join Bryan Hayes, Jason Strudwick and Frank Corrado for Hour 2 on OverDrive! The guys dive into Connor McDavid's lack of contract negotiations with the Oilers, Stuart Skinner's starting role in Edmonton and how the goaltending landscape will look on the roster. Foul Territory Host and Former MLBer Cameron Maybin joins to discuss the Blue Jays leading the AL East, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s mentality with the bat and the Yankees' trade additions and they go around the sports in the latest edition of OverDrive Arbitration.
