Oh, Deer...

Episode Twenty - Don‘t Hatch Those Chickens Too Early

Against all odds, Oh, Deer... presented by Bo's Bar & Stage has made it all the way to Episode Twenty as we creep up to the one year anniversary of the podcast.

On a special (overly) Christmas-themed episode, we take a quick peek at Ted's sitdown with Father Christmas himself, and the gang welcomes special guest Kevin 'The Athlete' Strybosch to fill in for Co-Worker Erin.

The fellas chat about everything from the best Christmas songs, to the best way to celebrate the holidays in Central Alberta, with a hole bunch of crap in between. Happy Holidays!

Episode Nineteen - ‘That Pigeon Was Up To Something‘

After an extra week off, Episode Nineteen of Oh, Deer... presented by Bo's Bar & Stage is here!

In the spirit of the season, Cara Horsley from Mamas for Mamas Red Deer, and Myles Peake from the Red Deer Outreach Centre dropped by to talk about their respective Adopt-A-Family programs, and other great ways to give back during the holidays.

If you missed the Red Deer Fire Fighter Calendar Launch Party, don't worry... because you're going to hear A LOT about it. You'll also hear about Ted and Lund's long-awaited trip to the Ellis Bird Farm, stories from a fun adventure at Sacks Thrift Ave's rage room, plus Ted swears a bunch at a spinning wheel... so needless to say this episode is chock-full of ground-breaking content.

Episode Eighteen - The Travelling Pants of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood

Episode Eighteen of Oh, Deer... presented by Bo's Bar & Stage is brought to you by the letter 'R'. Definitely not for the word 'rails', because we went off those way too many times... but because it's sponsored by the Red Deer Senior Rustlers. It's also brought to you by a letter, because the guys dressed up for Halloween (for an audio podcast...) as the Sesame Street gang.

Two of the Sr. Rustlers' founding fathers, Mike Dempster and Jonny Li stop by to chat with former teammates Dustin and Lund, and former General Manager Ted (AKA not good enough to play), and take a nice stroll (or skate) down memory lane.

There's also some less-than-desirable revelations about Lund's feeling for birds, and Ted's 'type' when it comes to women as everyone discusses their first celebrity crushes. To wrap things up, Dustin vs Walsh features everyone's favourite game; Netflix or Nonsense, but in the spirit of Halloween, this version is 'Horror or Hogwash'.

Basically, there's a lot to unpack in this episode. Good luck.

Episode Seventeen - ”That‘s Just the Tip of the Hose”

These episodes are getting longer, but we're not sure they're getting better...

Episode Seventeen of Oh, Deer... presented by Bo's Bar and Stage, is sponsored by the Red Deer Firefighter Calendar, which raises money for the Red Deer Firefighter's Children's Charity.

If you haven't already heard (because we haven't talked much about it yet)... the Oh, Deer gang got to do a 'firefighter' calendar shoot of their own... and the two brave souls - firefighters Stephen Underhay and Griff Marshall - join the show to talk about their experience, and to tell us more about the Children's Charity and how we can support it. (Which reminds us - go to Bo's now to get your tickets for the Calendar Launch Party on Nov 6th, hosted by Oh Deer).

We also waste everyone's time debating time change, while Lund relives some childhood trauma as we discuss the best Halloween and horror movies of all time. Then, the first round of 'Dustin vs Walsh' gets underway... and some other stuff happens, but are you even still reading at this point?

Episode Sixteen - Benches, Bulges, & Bumblebutts

Episode Sixteen of Oh, Deer... presented by Bo's Bar & Stage features the most talked about person who has never actually been on the podcast...

Episode Sponsor Andrew Russell, from Andrew Russell & Associates, makes his long-awaited appearance on the show, and we have to say, he didn't disappoint. Not only does he share some incredibly valuable real estate knowledge, but he also drops a couple great stories about the one and only Ryan Lund.

On top of that, the gang spreads some good vibes around the community, while also sharing some (of other people's) most embarrassing confessions. And, Ted's self-proclaimed status as the world's biggest Backstreet Boys fan is also put to the test... so there's that.

Episode Fifteen - Heartburn, Hiccups, & Hot Sauce (How I Spent My Summer Vacation)

After a nice little Summer break, Oh, Deer... presented by Bo's Bar & Stage is back!

There's a lot to catch up on, so Episode Fifteen is a bit of a long one...  and it's sponsored by our good friends Matt and Andy Cassidy at Beyond Insurance. Matt stopped by the studio to share a whole bunch of interesting facts about insurance (seriously - we're not just saying that), as well as some stories from his days as a WHL Official, and of course his experience at the inaugural Waterbury Open.

The fellas also discuss what they got up to over the Summer (including a long overdue debrief of the infamous Oh Deer Hunt), the best songs from the 90's, and they play a weird choose your own adventure-type game for the eighth (and possibly last) round of Ted vs Walsh... so buckle up!

Episode Fourteen - Best Summer Ever

Episode Fourteen of Oh, Deer... presented by Bo's Bar and Stage is the lone episode of the Summer, but it's jam-packed with some pretty not bad stuff in the gang's first time back at Communal Creative Studios since March.

This one is sponsored by the Unparalleled Clothing Company, and owner Jaret Smith drops by for the first ever in-studio interview to talk about the apparel business, his other entrepreneurial ventures, his time with the Red Deer Senior Rustlers, and most importantly, his Metis roots.

There's also a special announcement in this episode, with the first ever Oh, Deer... live show happening on August 21 at Bo's - get your tickets here: https://bit.ly/BestSummerEverBashTickets

The fellas also talk about the infamous Chubbs Golf Tournament and what it's all about, and then take a deep dive into some common (and not-so-common) pet peeves, before finishing off with another round of Ted vs Walsh in the most riveting way possible - a Red Deer history test.

That's it, that's all until September - have the best Summer ever!

Episode Thirteen - Boats 'n Does (Ft. Brandon Sutter)

Episode 13 of Oh, Deer... presented by Bo's Bar and Stage was quite the adventure...

Since it was Lundy's birthday, and we were finally allowed to be remotely close to each other again, we recorded this one on a pontoon boat out on Sylvan Lake, provided by Episode Sponsor Sun Sport Recreation, and, well... it went.

We also picked up Vancouver Canuck Brandon Sutter for a nice little chat, and he was pretty not bad. He even stuck around to play 'Prime or Pretend' with us. But I mean, we were on a boat, so we didn't give him much of a choice.

Plus, in honour of Father's Day, we deliver a heartfelt salute to dad jokes. And we also talked about some other stuff (spoiler alert).

Episode Twelve - Broken Bodies, Busted Bikes, & Birthday Boys

Episode Twelve of Oh, Deer... presented by Bo's Bar and Stage was recorded on the eve of Dustin's 35th birthday - and he made sure we didn't forget it.

This one is sponsored by Stride Physiotherapy & Wellness, and owners Blake and Jen Goehring, Ted and Lund's former neighbours, drop by the backyard for a fireside chat about all things physiotherapy, stories from the clinic, and of course some gossip about Ted and Lund from the other side of the fence.

You'll also hear about the Oh, Deer gang's trip to the Discovery Wildlife Park in Innisfail, everyone's biggest fears, and we find out how Lund got road rash on his face. And some other stuff happens too.

Episode Eleven - Lawyers, Loofas, & Life Partners

Even though Episode Eleven of Oh, Deer, presented by Bo's Bar & Stage, doesn't feature a plumber, there's still a surprising amount of toilet humour in it...

Episode Sponsor Louis Corriveau from Warren Sinclair LLP joins the show to talk about the life of a lawyer, and his transition from the East Coast to Red Deer. He also plays the very first edition of "High School Deer Book". Yeah, good luck figuring out what that's all about without listening.

As always, we talk about a bunch of other stuff, and Coworker Erin makes another appearance, this time to lead everyone through a very weird version of "The Newly-Wed Game" for Round Three of Ted vs Walsh. So yeah, a lot is happening here... enjoy.
