It's game day, Oil Country! Dustin Nielson, Joaquin Gage, and YouTube Trev are back at the desk on The Oil Stream, live on Edmonton Sports Talk!
Reid Wilkins steps up to share the desk with the young guys, YouTube Trev and Benny Thomson! The fellas lead off by recapping last night's impressive preseason victory over Vancouver! Edmonton's youth movement stepped up, proving to be more than enough to handle a veteran-heavy Canucks squad. The boys break down who stood out—highlighting Ike Howard finally getting his name on the scoresheet with a 2-point performance, and Tristan Jarry standing tall in goal with a steady 60-minute outing. Who else made a statement to the coaching staff? Then, Trev and Benny roll on with their Oilers Rankings of Importance for the upcoming season! Reid joins the breakdown as they unveil players #15 through #8 on the list—debating snubs, key role players, and who holds the most weight in Edmonton's quest for the Cup. To finish off the show, the boys debut an all-new segment: NHL Bidding! It's a head-to-head showdown as YouTube Trev goes toe-to-toe with Reid Wilkins. Who takes home bragging rights in the maiden voyage of the game? The Oil Stream is presented by Boston Pizza!
YouTube Trev and Benny Thomson team up with Joaquin Gage to break down a massive slate of hockey headlines and heated Oilers debates! First up, the fellas tackle some jaw-dropping national headlines after Mark Messier didn't hold back on his thoughts regarding head coach Mike Babcock! The boys react to "The Moose's" spicy comments and what it means for the organization's narrative moving forward. Then, the boys look ahead to tonight's Oilers Preseason Game Day! With Edmonton rolling out primarily an AHL-heavy roster, all eyes are on prospect Ike Howard. What does his inclusion in tonight's lineup mean for his evaluation, and is this his make-or-break moment to impress the coaching staff? Next, Trev and Benny continue their countdown of the Oilers Rankings of Importance for the upcoming season, revealing numbers #20 through #16! Gager breaks down the list from a goalie's perspective, calling out snubs, hot takes, and key role players who will define Edmonton's depth. Plus, the fellas play the Numbers Game, highlighting the biggest milestone achievements to watch across the NHL this season! The Oil Stream is presented by Boston Pizza!
"FALLure to Franchise" concludes with a very recent movie. One starring two big movie-stars coming off of the biggest hits of their career, directed by one of the filmmakers behind John Wick, and a movie that helped influence a major Academy Award change. So why the heck wasn't 2024's The Fall Guy a hit?? Your guess is as good as ours, but we're here to try to figure it out. Another cinematic adaptation of a classic TV show, The Fall Guy stars Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt in the action-comedy tale of a fallen (hey!) stuntman whose attempted comeback is set back when he becomes embroiled in a mysterious criminal plot. Is the movie an effective adaptation of the source material series? Are the stunts as impressive as they should be in a movie dedicated to honoring stunt performers? Has Chris hallucinated unicorns? Would Ryan Gosling be friends with Trev? We ask all these questions, and more! Our Twitter Our Facebook Our Instagram Our YouTube Trev's Letterboxd Chris' Letterboxd
YouTube Trev holds down the anchor desk alongside Hernan Salas, with Benny Thomson steering the ship from the producer's chair to close out a massive week of Oil Country coverage. The fellas kick things off by unpacking the action from today and yesterday's ice sessions at Rogers Place. Trev gets Hernan and Benny's reactions to the key player pressers, before diving into the high-stakes drama from today's intra-squad scrimmage. Oil Country held its breath after scary moments saw Connor McDavid and Sam Dickinson go down and slowly get up—the boys deliver the latest status updates and discuss how close the team came to absolute panic mode! Next, the crew turns its focus to Saturday night as the Oilers welcome the Winnipeg Jets to town for their official preseason opener! The fellas break down expected lineups, key bubble battles to watch, and debate who among the crew is actually going to the game. To wrap up the show and the week, the boys unveil their top 10 NHL players heading into the season! They stack their lists up against TSN's newly released rankings—who snags the top spot, where do Edmonton's superstars land, and what are the biggest snubs and surprises across the league?

Dave Jamieson steps into the anchor chair for Dustin Nielson today, so you already know it's going to be an absolute gooder! The fellas open up the show by catching up on life and sports after a little time apart before jumping straight into a massive slate of sports talk which was presented by The Rundle Park Short Course.

Who is skating alongside Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl? What do the early bottom-six lines look like, and how are the new blue-line faces fitting into the mix? Then, the boys react to head coach Mike Babcock's comments after his first formal media availability since he was hired. The fellas dissect his tone, his message to the locker room, and what he expects out of this group as exhibition action approaches. Next, the boys dive into a juicy hot take from insider Frank Seravalli, who said he wouldn't be surprised if Devon Levi becomes a more pivotal factor for Edmonton this season than Tristan Jarry. Gager, Benny, and Trev debate the goaltending dynamic, workload expectations, and who ultimately anchors the net down the stretch. Finally, the fellas zoom out to check on the ongoing situation surrounding Connor Hellebuyck in Winnipeg. With the Jets' General Manager addressing the media today, the boys react to his latest comments and examine what it means for the rest of the Western Conference!

Dustin Nielson, Benny Thomson, and YouTube Trev are live in the studio for another jam-packed edition of The Oil Stream! The boys lead off with a heartfelt tribute to the late Cal Nichols, who passed away at 84. The fellas reflect on his monumental legacy as the former EIG chairman and the leader who spearheaded the drive to save the Oilers from relocation in the 1990s.

From media pressure to opposition arenas hating #97 and #29, is it time for Edmonton to fully lean into the dark side on their quest for the Cup? The Oil Stream is presented by Boston Pizza!

YouTube Trev, Hernan Salas, and Benny Thomson take the desk to keep the hockey conversation rolling! The boys tackle one of the biggest multi-decade storylines in franchise history: Will the Edmonton Oilers finally win a division title for the first time in nearly 40 years? The fellas debate the true value of banner-hunting—does finishing atop the Pacific Division even matter when home-ice advantage and Stanley Cup expectations are locked in? And if Edmonton doesn't claim the Pacific crown, who takes it? Vancouver, Vegas, or Los Angeles? Then, the boys pivot to the hardware! With the new campaign fast approaching, Trev, Hernan, and Benny put their reputations on the line and lock in their official predictions for the NHL's biggest individual awards!

Byrd, Matt and Trev discuss the recent dinosaur film The End of Oak Street from writer/director David Robert Mitchell (It Follows). The film stars Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor as parents who have to protect their family from rampaging dinosaurs when their suburban neighborhood is inexplicably transported into the prehistoric age. We give our spoiler review of the movie (including unpacking the polarizing ending), how it compares to other post-Jurassic Park dinosaur films, what we hope it does for the genre, and more! But first, we pay tribute to the late Screaming Mad George, RJ Kizer, and Reggie Bannister. Relax and enjoy the conversation!
Retro and current gen gaming chat, with Trev and Stu, its the Console Shockcast! How did we go from games like ET and Wayne's World to GoldenEye and Robocop: Rogue City? Trev and Stu take a nostalgic look at the strange world of movie-licensed games, from the countless cash-ins of the 8-bit and 16-bit eras to the genuinely great titles that proved a movie tie-in could be much more than a quick cash grab. Movie tie-ins galore! We look back at the era when virtually every major film seemed to get a game, from Robocop and Rambo to Independence Day and The Phantom Menace. Alien games — from Alien Trilogy to Alien Resurrection, we discuss why the Alien franchise has had a surprisingly strong track record when it comes to video games. Robocop vs Terminator — we revisit some of the best and worst games based on these iconic 80s action franchises, including Robocop 3 and Terminator Resistance. Star Wars and beyond — why some of the best Star Wars games weren’t actually based directly on the films, plus a look at how other franchises expanded beyond their movie stories. The PS1/N64 movie-game explosion — Die Hard Trilogy, GoldenEye, The Lost World: Jurassic Park, Mission: Impossible and Independence Day all get a mention as we remember one of the golden eras for licensed games. The bad stuff! Wayne’s World, Back to the Future, Batman Forever, Charlie’s Angels and plenty of other questionable tie-ins remind us that not every movie needed a video game. Games that never happened — we pitch movies that should have received their own games, including a rather brilliant idea for a Star Trek: First Contact FPS starring Captain Picard against the Borg. From movies to games… and back again! We finish by flipping things around and discussing which video games could make great movies, including Castlevania, Metal Gear Solid and Heavy Rain. Check out Trev and Al’s other podcast where they reminisce about different episodes of the Star Trek franchise! : https://longrangesensors.com/episodes Intro Music – Title Theme – Pinball Dreams (1992) – Commodore Amiga – Composer(s): Olof Gustafsson Outro Music – Loading Theme – Desert Strike (1993) – Commodore Amiga – Composer(s): Jason A.

Plus, Dusty and Trev open up the floor to whatever else pops into their heads, taking your live chat questions, hot takes, and total show derailments along the way!

Red, White & Blues FC | Butterfly Tattoos, a Mid-Episode Signing, and City CirclingChalobah's gone, City want three of ours, Chelsea completed a transfer while we were literally recording, and we made a tattoo pact on air. Normal Thursday.We open the only correct way — laughing at Arsenal, who apparently believed they had a shot at Vinícius Júnior right up until he pointed out he isn't tired of winning Champions Leagues yet. From there it's a rumor-mill episode, because there's exactly one confirmed piece of Chelsea business this week and about fifteen things that might be. Jason delivers a full monologue on why transfer season is the footballing equivalent of being cornered by someone describing their dream. And then, halfway through the Enzo conversation, Fabrizio broke a deal live and we had a new signing before the episode ended.Farewell, Trevoh ChalobahThe one concrete thing: Chalobah is officially a Como player, €30m plus €6m in add-ons. He'd been at the club roughly twenty years and BlueCo never knew what to do with him — treated like an afterthought, shipped out on loan, brought back, never quite trusted. Neither of us pretends he was world class, but that was always fine. He was an excellent role player who could cover injuries, give you cup minutes, and actually loved Chelsea, and you need those in a squad. He was better than Disasi, better than Badiashile, and frequently better than Fofana. Thanks, Trev. Enjoy Italy. BlueCo got their £30m of pure profit.The Rumor Mill: Osimhen, Diogo Costa, and Too Many DefendersTottenham have made an offer for Victor Osimhen, so naturally Chelsea might go back in for Osimhen — because they have a toy and now we want the toy. That's three summers running. It fell apart on wages last time, he's two years older, and nothing about the math has changed. More interesting: Portuguese reports have Chelsea in talks for Diogo Costa and ready to match his €60m release clause, which is the one goalkeeper move we're both fully on board with, even if he'd be inheriting the same shambolic back line. On which — do we need more defenders? Yes, but we still have Disasi, Badiashile, Tosin, Mamadou Sarr, and Aarón Anselmino sitting there, and only the last two have youth as an excuse. Badiashile's linked to Napoli, Tosin reportedly has “lots of interest” per Fabrizio (please, take him), and Crystal Palace have submitted a loan with an obligation to buy for Disasi — take it, take five pounds, just get out of the Disasi business. Move those three and you're left with Fofana, Lacroix, Colwill, Anselmino and Hato covering in, which is enough. Sell this summer, clear the deadwood, buy quality next year once we're back in the Champions League.The Butterfly Tattoo PactThen the bad news: Chelsea are reportedly leaning toward a transfer or loan for Mudryk to Strasbourg. We said on Monday we'd riot, and we meant it — this administration was already dead to Jason, and he's not sure what's past dead. Daniel's position is that if Mudryk leaves, the title dream is gone, Champions League is gone, we're in the Conference League, we might not qualify for Europe at all. His actual vision for the season: Chelsea win the league by three points because Mudryk comes off the bench to score a 90th-minute winner against Arsenal in a 2-1. And so the pact, arrived at independently by both of us, which is what almost thirty years of friendship does to two people: if Mudryk stays and Chelsea win the league, we both get the exact butterfly tattoo. One cheek each. Possibly a wing apiece so we can moon people in formation. The one loan destination we'd actually enjoy is Coventry, purely to watch Frank Lampard coach up Mudryk — and it's genuinely nice to see Lamps is a good manager after all, just one who was handed two impossible situations at Chelsea.City Want Three of Ours, and Has Enzo Peaked?Manchester City have been linked with three Chelsea players in one day: Malo Gusto at £75m, Pedro Neto around £70m, and now Enzo Fernández, with Rodri reportedly off to Barcelona and Maresca wanting Enzo as the replacement. The Gusto number is Chelsea pricing a player so he doesn't sell — City said interested, but absolutely not at 75, which is what anyone with a footballing brain would say. Neto's number, by contrast, is priced to be paid, and the official line that he's “a very important part of the squad but the price would have to be right” translates cleanly as: we'll sell him tomorrow to a big enough sucker. Neither of us will miss Neto, a player who does almost nothing with an enormous amount of talent and whose main skill is spamming crosses without knowing where they're going. The Enzo conversation is the meatiest thing in the episode. Has he peaked? Jason thinks roughly yes — 20 goal contributions a year is his ceiling, and last season's 10 goals and 4 assists are attacking-midfielder numbers, not the Fàbregas-style controller you'd want beside Caicedo. That's exactly why the pivot fails: Caicedo drops to a fifth defender, Enzo pushes forward, and Chelsea simply cede the middle of the pitch, which is what Maresca did to us all season. Lavia is the right profile, if Lavia could ever string together ninety minutes, which in three years he hasn't. We both like Enzo, both think he plays hard for the badge — and both suspect he's a mercenary who'd play just as hard for City's badge the moment they pay him.And Then We Signed Someone Mid-EpisodePep Chavarría to Chelsea, broken by Fabrizio while we were recording: €19m plus €2m in add-ons, flying for a medical, signatures the same night. A 28-year-old left back from Rayo Vallecano who has never been capped by Spain. Daniel's verdict is blunt — this is not a Xabi Alonso signing, this is 100% a BlueCo signing, and the idea that every arrival this window is an Alonso pick is a narrative the club is happy to let run. In fairness, Chelsea genuinely don't have a left back since Cucurella left; Hato can do it but is better at left center back, and Palestra can technically cover. The question is whether we've just bought a starter or a very expensive backup. Elsewhere in the Juventus match: Hato started at left back, Palestra and Quenda linked up well on the right and Quenda had a strong first half, Fofana has publicly announced he wants to prove he can be the player we thought he was before the injuries — which mostly tells you he knows what the rest of us know. The squad is bloated, more players keep arriving, and the thing Chelsea are worst at is the thing they most urgently need to do. As Jason puts it: BlueCo aren't bad at selling players, they're bad at buying them, and then they have to sell the bad players they bought, and nobody wants them because they're bad.Programming NoteThe live Thursday show didn't happen this week and probably won't next week either — most likely we kick it off properly when the season starts. We need a name for it, so drop suggestions in the comments. This is a public episode.

A successful music video director and the filmmaker behind a recently well-received cult hit is hired to helm the cinematic adaptation of a beloved '60s sitcom. Clearly aiming for something more hip and edgy than the original show, he largely eschews the tone of the source material, instead populating his film with esoteric cult celebs and performers, upping the raunch factor, and filming it as a musical. And then...nothing. The movie sits on the shelf for almost four years. Until - unbeknownst to the director himself - it is finally quietly released, in a drastically altered studio cut. Yes, the little-remembered Car 54, Where Are You? is truly one of strangest movies (and stories behind the movie) that we have done yet. So strange, we couldn't tackle it alone!

We have a very special guest on Mormon Stories today, who some of our live audience may know as "TrevAnon" on YouTube. He has helped out for many years as a moderator for Mormon Stories livestreams, and he is here today to tell us why a Never-Mormon from the Netherlands would find interest in Mormonism. This episode will begin with Trev's story, and how he developed his interest in cults and other high-demand religions--especially Scientology. Additionally, he has prepared a presentation that will compare and contrast Scientology to Mormonism. Join along as we hash out all the similarities and differences point by point. We are grateful to TrevAnon (Corry) for sharing his story and expertise with our audience, and hope you find it as interesting as we did. ___________________YouTubeAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.
