Stand By... Winnipeg

About this episode

In this episode, the hosts discuss weekend plans, cosmic events, local sports, and various news topics affecting Winnipeg.

In the final episode of the week—aptly titled Standby for Winnipeg —Dave Wheeler and Tyler Carr gear up for a massive Friday in the city. The episode title hits close to home as the guys break down Tyler's looming weekend stress: he's flying standby to Regina, and the clock is ticking. Meanwhile, the guys look to the skies to unpack the latest cosmic chaos involving a wild Blue Origin explosion. Back on solid ground, it's game day for your Winnipeg Blue Bombers at Princess Auto Stadium as they prep for their final exhibition matchup against the B.C. Lions, and the guys dive into coach Mike O'Shea's high-stakes roster cuts. They also drop a highly anticipated new food video, review Austin Powers in Goldmember , and unpack some rare good news: a notable 8.8% drop in Winnipeg's violent crime rates. Plus, they tackle the absolute absurdity of Manitoba's notoriously awful Highway 34 winning "worst road" for the second year running, Meta's new paid subscription features, and a viral Florida influencer whose phone ticket was tossed because she doesn't have a right hand. From a deep dive into Tyler's mysterious "backroom" to Drake music news, this episode is the perfect weekend kick-off.
