The VonDubCast

Morning y’all! Today we have a good friend of mine from university David Won on the podcast! We recently reconnected at a going away party for another friend of ours and ended up spending half the night doing an unrecorded podcast on K-pop. We had such a ball I knew we had to fire up the mic’s and get it on the record. We tell some old dodgeball and lister stories, talk some basketball, of course...

todays episode catches up another 2 weeks of my life including my trip to BC, and amazing wedding, my best stand up set to date as well as another greasy bomb, podcast updates, filming an episode of a TV show, as well as discussing the differences for guys and girl using the dating app hinge.  This episode was a blast and may be the best show so far with this format.  Huge shoutout to Jayde for co...

This was a great conversation on a subject that I was woefully i...

We heard your feedback and got Jayde back on the NVW show! We went down even more rabbit holes and had a whole ton of laughs.  We chat about the recent movies we have seen including, Top Gun, the new Thor, Encanto and many more. I pitch Stranger Things to Jayde in the hopes of convincing her to watch as well as letting the world know how much I love that show! As always we get a little deep from t...

Dangerfest was a huge success and a very important moment for comedy in Alberta.  For an industry so locked down by corporate money and opportunities to have a private group put on an independent comedy festival completely by themselves is extraordinary! I break down my experience at the shows including the Danger Room and the Roast Battle and also the last hour is a podcast the boys were gracious...

The boys are back and they were buzzzzzin. We break down all the major moves by the oilers as well as the major shake ups around the league.  We also catch up a bit and talk some golf, nhl draft and a few random non hockey topics that kept us laughing the whole podcast! Once again this podcast is sonly getting better and you don't want to jump on late. Give your ears a gift and hop on board t...

Mark uses his sardonic wit and fearless stage presence to share (and overshare) his perspective and life experiences - including the demons that sometimes still affect him to this day.

I really wanted to get another episode of this podcast recorded before I take off to the lake again and I'm very thankful for Jayde to come in help make it happen!  A lot has happened since episode 3 including my trip to Lloydminster, getting back into BJJ, appearing on the Shaun Newman Podcast that releases today, my weeklong trip to B.C, recording Oilers Uncensored again as well as an updat...

Nick McQuick is a local Edmonton comedian that in addition to being hilarious also happens to be one of the most welcoming guys in comedy.  He gave me countless tips before my first open mic set and may be the single thing that kept me from puking I was so nervous. He has conveyed an enormous amount of comedy knowledge onto me so far and this podcast is the most distilled version yet.   I finally...

We are finally back after a 2 week hiatus but boy are we back with a vengeance.  Not only do we recap the Oilers current position ahead of free agency including Evander Kane, Jesse Puljujarvi, and the rest of the rumoured moves for cap space as well as what free agents excite us or not if we can't lock down Kane. We also do quite a bit of breakdown across the league on the latest coaching cha...

Decided to break out the mic's on the road home from our weeklong trip to Penticton B.C.  It is my absolute favourite place on earth and the trip was full of playing with kids, testing out our new boat, wakesurfing, go karting and a whole lot of relaxation.  We also break down the crazy stacked card that was UFC 276 including Suga's heartbreaking no contest, Volk staking his claim for P4...

It’s been a long time coming but The Vondubcast has finally had its first UFC fighter on the podcast! Chad fights out of Champions Creed gym in Calgary Alberta and recently won his debut fight in the UFC with a crazy 3rd round KO after securing his contract on Dana White’s Contender Series last August! Getting to watch all of Chad’s fights as preparation for this interview felt amazing. I’m very a...

Wow what a massive deal it is for me personally to have a guest like Peter McCullough on the Vondubcast! Dr McCullough has been bravely asking questions and shining a light on everything form early treatments and natural immunity to asymptomatic spread and testing since the beginning of the pandemic. He has been widely demonized and smeared and yet no one has agreed to debate him or the majority o...

We apologize for the wait but damn is this one worth it! We break down the unfortunate sweep of the Oilers in the WCF, how we felt about the season as a whole and how we see this offseason progressing. There is so much to be happy about with this squad going forward but also a ton of question marks and we cover them all! Plus we finally tell the story of our playoff seat neighbor that was driving...

Episode 2 of the Nick von Wackerbarth show is here!

We then went into some current events and it turned into some mma/combat...

Of all the guests that have graced the Vondubcast so far, not one has had nearly the buzz of excitement as when I announced I had recorded with @Dangercats69 founder @unclehack69. I had more people reach out in excitement and knowing what an amazing conversation we had I couldn’t even wait to release it. We talked Danger cats, mixed martial arts and starting comedy as well as our favourite comedia...

A warm welcome back to the podcast to one of the most downloaded guests we have had so far in Ashely Severson! Ashley was incredibly vulnerable in our first episode together documenting in detail her battle with breast cancer.  The response was amazing and it was so cool to see how many people her story touched and how much education people including myself got out of it. Since then Ashely has gon...

This is the first episode of the Nick von Wackerbarth Show, a shorter solo driven show with segments current events and updates on what i get up to and what podcasts I'm listening to week to week.  I say show because as opposed to The VonDubCast and The Oilers Uncensored podcasts I want this show to be more than just a podcast.  Of course the audio will always be released on the podcast apps...

We welcome back Shaun Newman for his third appearance on the podcast.  We catch up on each others journeys since we spoke last. We have both went full time with our podcasts since that's last chat and it was fun to discuss it both on and off the podcast.  We also get into Shauns experience at the Ottawa Freedom Convoy what it was like talking/interviewing people on the ground what a powerful...

Momma always taught me never to toot my own horn.... but f*ck it TOOOT TOOOT! This podcast is the shit and when Fraser hops in to join it gets even better. Where else are you going to get this type of passionate analysis jam packed between constant laughs and hot takes.  Screw TSN screw Sportscenter this is where it at. The boys breakdown every series from round 2 including the battle of Alberta t...

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?! The boys are back to break down the last 3 games of the battle of Alberta and how sweet it is to not only see the Oilers bounce the Flames in 5 but also for it to go exactly how we predicted! We break down the ridiculous narrative of "but just one guy beat us", how much we are loving Woodcroft more and more each game, play by play analysis of games 3, 4, and 5, who w...
