The VonDubCast

Well hey there everybody i hear you have been missing my little solo journeys on the podcast and figured i could fire one up! I had an absolutely amazing weekend playing slo-pitch, watching sports and seeing @jessimaepeluso and @whateverkalea do spots at the comic strip and the Moon.  It was so inspiring that probably the last 70% of this podcast is just me gushing about how amazing they are and a...

I know Mondays are always interview episodes but with the NHL Playoffs in full swing we have to record/release these time sensitive OU episodes whenever we can and I don't want to post 2 episodes in the same day.  BUT the next episode of the VDC is with the hilarious @artbellerosecomedy about both of our first co-feature weekends at the @comicstripwem and it is a tasty one! I want to say it w...

This city is quite literally burning down and the only cure is a little OU in your lives! The boys recap the final 4 games of the series including the questionable calls, huge moments, and key players who stepped up to bring the squad one step closer to lord stanley.  We also go around the league to wrap up all the other series including how our predictions shook out (not great) as well as how the...

How often does one get to sit down and chat with a PHD candidate/Stand up comedian?! Well last Tuesday was my lucky day because I got to chat with my good friend Jules Balluffi and it was a hell of a time. We sat down at the world famous Dukes Diner on the UofA campus and went through her entire Journey from the mean streets of Manhattan, to New Jersey, all the way up to Mcgill, the maritimes and...

Today we welcome back to the podcast one of my favorite people in comedy and a true staples of the scene, Nick McQuick, for his 3rd (solo) appearance on the show! It may have been my favourite ones as we have gotten to know each other much better over the preceding months and we were able to dive deeper than ever before and it made for some truly captivating conversation.  It's often hard to...

The boys are fresh off their big win in game 2 and excited to breakdown all the storylines around the league as well as the intricate details of the first 2 oilers matchups. We address the embarrassing showing by Oilers fans in game 1, the horrendous embellishment/diving by the LA Kings as well as our personal experience running section 109 in game 2.  Then we take a trip around the league to talk...

Well sometimes you win big with comedy and sometime it beats you down in a way few things in this world can. Tuesday at the comic strip was one of those nights and i decided to bear it all on here so you could all laugh/cry through it with me lol.  It was such an odd feeling to be simultaneously proud of what I tried while also just so mad and embarrassed at how badly the attempt was by my own sta...

Today's guest is a giant of the Canadian comedy scene. He has performed on some of the greatest stages in comedy, performed across Canada and the world, won roast battles, competitions and everything in between.  And if you haven't heard about all that, he will tell you about it! Sterling has grinded for years and has the confidence to show for it.  And even though he is constantly on th...

Can you feel it? That something special in the air? Take a listen to this in-depth playoff breakdown and find out exactly what that feeling is! The boys go through all 8 first round matchups including predictions and as always it’s 50% intelligent analysis and 50% heart and memes. Not only is this the most entertaining playoff breakdown on the market but it’s setting the table for the magical run...

The boys decided to get together tonight and listen to their predictions from the start of the season including the winners of all the regular season awards, the shakeout of who would make playoffs and how many points each oilers player would get.  We were laughing so hard we were crying! We absolutely nailed some things and completely blew some others. I mean obviously the Boston Bruins were fina...

Every once and a while you hear a story that has everything and today’s guest is definitely one of those cases. When he was just a teen he got a taste of success putting on massive shows with the biggest names in music but soon found himself in over his head. Knowing his closest friends and family had invested in his venture he was willing to do anything to make it right and this took him down a w...

Well I didn't quite know what this conversation was going to be when we first sat down but it became apparent immediately that me and Jay R had enough in the chamber to fill multiple podcasts. Between our love of comedy, animals, video games, speedruns and weed we probably could have talked all day long! Jay R is an amazing comedian that grinds his ass off and can be found out almost every ni...

Man is it a great time to be alive! The weathers warming up the oilers are buzzing and the playoffs are just around the corner so what better time to jump into the greatest oilers podcast of all time?! We dissect exactly what makes the oilers so deadly from top to bottom, gush about how much we love them and then address the latest round of downer oilers fans trying to bring down the juju! But as...

A lot of times there will be a certain person I really want to ask onto the podcast but fear holds me back.  Ryan was definitely one of those people but after getting to know him I'm kicking myself for not getting my courage up earlier!  Not only is Ryan an awesome comic but he is just such an interesting guy to be around on and off stage.  Never has the word brongin and Ryan Short been in th...

A lot of you have been asking for a good old fashioned VonSolo episode over these last few weeks and here it is!  I attended an awesome event put on by the  @shaunnewmanpodcast called SNP Presents: Legacy Media this past weekend and it shook me up so hard I've spent all week trying to figure out my feelings around it.  The energy was phenomenal and the caliber of brave courageous people in th...

Hard to believe we are already at 30 episodes and the boys were in alltime form for this latest instalment of the pod.  We break down the latest games including Kane returning to form with his hattrick performance, the continued dominance from Ekholm and all the other fine performances we are getting form the boys up and down the lineup. We also went across both the West and Eastern conferences an...

I don't know about you guys but I thought the podcasting was severely lacking in some serious bro-down time.  Luckily a new comic started in the Edmonton comedy scene so I scooped him up for a podcast episode and damn did it deliver! Jordan is a hilarious guy who I cant wait to see progress into the awesome comic he is destined to be.  I'm pumped this conversation is going to live on the...

The boys are back and they are firing.  Not only are the Edmonton Oilers rounding into shape as we head to the playoffs and look like a wagon to end all wagons but the Oilers uncensored podcast is doing the same.  The boys spicy hot takes and inappropriate jokes take a noticeable jump in intensity as we grind towards the playoffs and the title of greatest Oilers podcast in the universe.  We also b...

Today we bring back the crowd favourite Denqiue Ali for another dive into the realm of the spiritual and artistic! If you haven't heard the first 2 episodes with Denique (#108, #118) make sure you check them out as well and then come join us! We chat about all sorts of subjects and try to sort out our places in the world as always.  Denique is also competing in the Inked Magazine cover contes...

IN honour of the 95th academy awards the Vondubcast had to bring on our local cinema expert Steven Darnell to get his 3 cents on his favourite movies of 2022.  We cover all kinds of movies from the slow intimate mind shakers that stick with you for weeks to action flicks that will have you locked in start to finish.  One thing I always dreamed this podcast would become was something that my friend...

The greatest Oilers podcast in the universe is back and it's a doozy! We recorded the last emergency Ekholm pod with a lot of questions but boy did we get answers in a hurry. Nothing less than 2.5hrs would have done to discuss how f***ing unbelievable this squad is looking and we had to go in-depth to fully describe it. We do an absolute dissection of the Oilers roster including a theoretical...

Back for his second appearance Uncle Hack came in hot and didn't slow down for three hours of straight cancellable debauchery with the boys! We chatted Stand Up in canada, cbc, fake articles, Trudeau and plenty more.  I have to say a huge thank you to Hack for singing me up for my first stand up show after we talked last, its been a wild journey and im so glad he was the one to force my first...

As always the Nick and Jayde podcast is full of surprises.  This time we talk about finding motivation, Jayde seeing Nick do stand up for the first time, as well as a Jayde reeling in her first catfish.  We also catch up on all the happenings in our lives these past couple weeks and try to find the lessons in the hardships as we love to do. We may not have solved all of our problems but sometimes...

First off apologies for the delays on the OU episodes but its definitely worth the wait for content like this! The boys hopped on for quicky pod before puck drop against the Leafs.  We broke down the Ekholm deal, how we see it changing the scope of the oilers overall and how fair the return was to get him.  Nowhere will you get this type of in-depth Oilers breakdown along with this many laughs.  O...

HELL YEAH!!! Today we have one of the funniest guys to ever grace the cover of CTV it is none other than the legend Brendan Washbern! Brendan burst onto the Edmonton comedy scene from BC a few months back and absolutely tore it a new bunghole before he scurried back to BC.  I guess we will never know if Brendan couldn't hand Edmonton or if Edmonton just couldn't take the Beeeeeern.  Eith...
