Mornings at the Cabin

(former?) Prince Harry is coming to Canada and needs a job! Maybe a paper route to start? And a little rumour created by one of our specialty show hosts yesterday on facebook BLEW UP - with unexpected (but hilarious) results.

Dez Loreen, host of the Deztro show and a million other things, has added another thing to his upcoming agenda: Northwest Terror Stories! And Lekter delivers a radio lecture on sound effects, and how they can be used for educational purposes!

Friend of the Cabin, Bridget Rusk, details how things got a little out of hand in the YK adult rec basketball league last night. Technicals for all! And Lekter has a super friendly rant to get off his chest about one of our FAVOURITE ADVERTISERS EVER WE LOVE YOU DON'T LEAVE US

Too cool for school...or just too cold? Enjoy your day off Fort Simpson students! And the 25th Snow King festival is set and we can't wait!

Temperatures in the NWT have continued to drop and northerners are ready to SNAP. You would have to be crazy to go shoot a film almost entirely outdoors, no? Well, Wheeler and Lekter took part in a group that did just that. No regrets (or feeling in our...*ahem*...)

Wheeler and Lekter discuss what is being called the most epic marriage proposal of all-time...and take odds on how long the marriage will last! Just kidding. Also, the legendary, long-time host of Hockey Night in Canada, Ron MacLean joined us live on the air for a chat! Not kidding!

Lekter wants to know: Is there such thing as a seasonal crosswalk? Because that seems to be the only way to make any sense of the MADNESS that is the intersection of 51st and 51st in Yellowknife. And Ollie joins Wheeler and Lekter to discuss the latest, unquestionable indication that his home country is falling completely apart.

Yeah. It's friggin' cold today. Cold enough to close a school (but only one, for some reason). Also, wanna run the new hospital? Come on. It'll be fun!

Penny was bad again this morning. SHOCKING RIGHT?! And a Montreal bakery run by trolls gives a young Maple Leafs fan his "just desserts" HAHAHa..ha..hehe...hmm. Yeah, sorry.

The first Mornings at the Cabin of 2020! Wheeler, Lekter and AJ recap some of their holiday highlights and mishaps...and PANIC when they collectively realize that Scotiabank Hockey Day in Canada is now LESS THAN A MONTH AWAY!

OUR BELOVED GUITAR HAS BEEN RECOVERED! Big thank you to Jawah Scott at Birchwood Cafe for getting in touch after recovering it this past weekend. However, as we didn't have it back in time for this morning's show, please enjoy a rendition of "Silent Night" with Lekter on the Autoharp and Wheeler on "cluckals."

One of Sarah's foster puppies, "Hippo," had a big day - he's been adopted AND dropped a debut single, covering Trans-Siberian Orchestra's version of "Carol of the Bells." AND we finally have an air date to watch the Hernandez family take CBC and Family Feud Canada by storm!

Have you seen the Cabin guitar? No? Hmm. Have you finished Christmas shopping yet? No? Hmm.

You're a rotter Mr. Grinch...wherever you are... OH! And it's reaaally cold outside.

We saw the sign. And it read the wrong temperature, we saw the sign.

Wheeler and Ollie, against their better judgement and best assumptions, investigate the origins of "The 12 Days of Christmas." And Russia, once again, solidifies itself as the country that gives less elfs than anyone else.

Today's Cabin Radio Christmas Music Panel selection might have set the record for "quickest banishment." Also, please don't tell AJ about the state of the Cabin in his absence. It will only stress the poor lad out.

How do we follow up Lekter and Nicole's huge, surprise engagement announcement yesterday on Mornings at the Cabin?? By, of course, talking about the sad and untimely demise of the Apostrophe Protection Society. Yep.

Lekter surprised Wheeler and Ollie with some pre-ttayyy, pre-ttayyyy, pre-ttayyyyy big news this morning...how's that for clickbait? Also, Wheeler and Lekter create some new Hallmark Christmas movie plots!

Someone in the GNWT dropped the ball yesterday...as a result, the website www.gnwtjobs.ca is now...a random, obscure UFC blog...thing. How do they get it back? Well, of course, they'll have to step inside the OCTAGON!

How was day 1 of your inevitably disappointing beer advent calendar? BAD?? Well get ready for 24 more days of that!

Lekter recovers his Twitter account from almost-certain death by taking drastic measures...and LOGGING IN *gasp*...AJ, on the other hand, is not so sure his is worth recovering.

Yellowknife Scouts Christmas trees go on sale tomorrow! Which means there will probably be a shortage by the weekend! And it's time to practice your panic routine, as a scheduled GNWT Test Alert is set to go this morning!

Wheeler was catching up on his Trump e-blast messages (that somehow wound up in his junk folder??) yesterday and shared the Donald's latest call to action! And have you pre-ordered your Tesla Cybertruck yet? Not us. Too many sharp corners.

Wheeler, Ollie and Lekter try to keep up with the ever-changing programming of CBC North! Dead North Festival filmmaker registrations begin today (and the promo poster is DEADLY) and a new entry for the Cabin Radio Christmas Music Panel!
