Mornings at the Cabin

The frigid weather this morning has brought back the old temperature vs "feels like" debate...the result? We can't feel anything.

This morning we took a look back in time at an EXCITING and EXPLOSIVE but MISGUIDED social initiative of the GNWT circa 1973... the Adventures of Captain Alcohol. And yes, it's real.

A story out of Zhengzhou, China, has gone viral where a woman was forced to quarantine with a blind date during a sudden and swift Covid-19 lockdown. She documented her experience with her new roommate online, in what is sure to be the framework for a new movie or reality show!

Fort Smith mayor Fred Daniels says that tourism is no longer the way future. We agree. The future is pizza.

Yesterday, Mornings at the Cabin firmly positioned itself in the corner of Team Reyes in the wake of the nurse-wife-shovels-driveway controversy that has GRIPPED the nation. And for once...it looks like we may have come out on the right side of history!

A tweet from a Manitoba MLA has gone viral for all the wrong reasons. He let his wife shovel their driveway after a 12-hour hospital shift. Up here, we call that "small potatoes" as far as MLA drama goes...

It's Cabin Radio reporter Sarah Sibley's birthday today! Last year Wheeler fell asleep before her party...but THIS year...we didn't even know she was in the territory!

Breaking new this morning: Yellowknife is getting a Dollarama. Oh, also an armed standoff.

New year, same old Wheeler. Well, not quite the same. He's 40 now.

Much like the song itself, by the time we get to day 12...we're pretty much over it.

Ollie and Lekter attempt to shake off the holiday haze of last week. What day is it again?

Lekter and Ollie look back (shudder) look forward (nervous laughter) and look at some british Christmas traditions on the last Morning at the Cabin before Christmas 2021!

Students at Colville Lake School have re-written and recorded your new northern holiday BANGER, "The 12 Days of Colville Christmas"

The War on Christmas, as we know it today, has a long, long history spanning many cultures and religions. Battles won and lost. Blood and tears shed alike. And, of course, naked fire dancing.

Ollie heard what #britishpeoplebelike. And he has crafted a formal response.

Bret "the Hitman" Hart is being honoured with a star on the Canada Walk of Fame. So let's revert back to our 10-year-old selves and GUSH.

The final Ndilo or No Ndilo of 2021! Big thanks to Erasmus Apparel for continuing to sponsor our favourite ever radio/social media contest.

Wheeler has seemed insistent on doing really bad impressions of Ollie lately. So we might as well do really bad impressions of all British people while we're at it.

The Yellowknife Boy Scouts Christmas trees, despite a treacherous, mishap-laden journey, have finally arrived!

Wheeler was the victim/guest of honour of a surprise 40th birthday party this Friday night! And the best part? He wasn't wearing sweatpants.

The ravens outside of the Cabin were having an ominous conference call this morning. They're definitely up to something. Or maybe it was just their AGM.

His mouth gets a good workout every morning at the Cabin. Now it's time for the rest of his body to pick up the slack!

After having to cancel this past summer, Lekter and Nicole's wedding plans are back in full swing! And surprisingly for all involved...Wheeler has been selected as the ideal independent arbiter for one of their possible wedding day ideas...

Lekter got himself some new glasses! Not for his vision, though. These are "Self Care" glasses.

You can write a Hallmark movie around anything. Even a South Korean attack helicopter.
