The Pepper & Dylan Show

Who would have imagined a discussion about avocados and guacamole could be the thing that finally puts an end to the Pepper & Dylan Show? Rage bait alert!

Dylan admires that his girlfriend can receive a text message and not to drop everything to text back right away. She has a very healthy text/life balance. Some people consider that rude but should we really be demanding a text takes priority over everything?

Dylan is outraged when he finds out what service Robbie gave a tip for. It leads to another Pepper & Dylan debate about tip etiquette. Has tipping gone too far? What are the acceptable services to leave a tip for?

We try an process the drama of the magpie that took our radio station off the air. It gives us a good chance to learn about birds and make bird noises. What it's like to see your family pet get carried off into the sky by a bird of prey.

At the end of every week, we recap all the disputes to see who is the ultimate winner of the week. We keep track of all the rights and wrongs and break them all down for you. Who will win THIS week?

Dylan had to miss a few days due to extreme dizziness and we can all relate. Being dizzy sucks and is almost impossible to power though. We discuss how it may be the best excuse not to go to work.

Having kids is full of surprises and that is extremely highlighted here. Pepper and the audience share some of the lesser known things you didn't expect when you made the decision to start a family. Some may call listening to this segment a very good form of birth control.

We discuss the idea of tracking your kids with air tags. Is that taking helicopter parenting to another level? What's the harm?

Struggle meals are cheap meals that sound sad but are actually elite. It's comfort food when times are tough. Wieners and beans, margarine on saltines, or ketchup sandwiches. We share all our favourites!

We stumble upon a fact about Alberta that seems too cool to be true. Not many people know this, but it should be our province's official claim to fame.

Would you rather lose your sense of taste or lose a limb? What are you willing to give up to keep your taste alive? We hear from a listener who lost his sense of taste and attempt to understand what it would be like.

Pepper swears a chickadee is intentionally stalking him and haunting him. He's claiming this evil bird is following him around the province. We call his mom to get to the bottom of his theory.

Dylan refuses to throw his old underwear away. He insists there's many uses for them and thinks is silly to just toss them. Recycle, reduce, reuse, right?

When someone says "people are the worst" what does that really mean? We attempt to come up with a list of all the worst types of people. We're not just talking about criminals and deviants. What common groups of people really need to give their heads a shake?

This is an odd conversation but most of ours are. Some people say Europeans don't lean and it's strictly an American thing. We try and wrap our heads around that.

Allergy sufferers unite! We hear from a listener who swears he has the cure. However, we strongly suggest NOT trying this at home.

Pepper's son recently shared some news that has his dad beaming with pride. You've probably heard Pepper say some questionable things about his only boy, but not this time! This may finally mean he's moving out of the basement...

Edmonton's senior scientist, Mike Jenkins, joins us for our annual conversation about pests. He gives us his mosquito forecast for the summer of 2026. His take on how bad wasps will be this year. He answers our questions about other pests like voles, muskrats, rats, ticks, and ants. Get ready to learn!

We know doctors took an oath and apparently aren't supposed to date patients, but, it happens. Would you still go to that doctor if you broke up? We encounter a circumstance where that's exactly what's happening!

At the end of every week, we recap all the disputes to see who is the ultimate winner of the week. We keep track of all the rights and wrongs and break them all down for you. Who will win THIS week?

Dylan officially embarks on an 8-week mission to find the BEST Raman in Edmonton. He's the biggest foodie on the show so he's the best person for the job. Stay tuned for updates.

We spend far too long talking about plungers. Pepper seems to be plunging more than the average person. We have a million dollar idea for a self cleaning plunger. Pepper vows to never use the same plunger twice. Welcome to plunger chat!

Pepper outlines all the struggles parents have to endure when they volunteer for their kid's sports. Whether it's score keeping or fundraising, they have it tough.

Pepper is obsessed with proper grammar and can't resist an opportunity to correct someone. Dylan wonders how much it really matters. Most of the time it makes no difference.
