  • The Easter Episode - the Rabbit who rode a donkey up a hill to Get Busy Liv'n

    Yes, it's the Easter Episode! When you think bunnies, are you the "standard" Easter Bunny, or a wild rabbit in your yard, or the white rabbit with HUGE FANGS that guards the cave of Kyle Banno??? Someone was punched by a rabbit; who was it....??? Then we talk about cooling systems, the best time to travel north to find ice, ODR rink upgrades, and who wants to ride a burro up a mountain.

  • Kit building with NiceRink.
    Jimmy has been waiting all season for this, we got NiceRInk on the show this week! End of the day (or episode) - one of the boys might be rethinking the home-build rink. We deep dive into why a NiceRink tarp is optimal and not a blue one from "a box store"? We try to tell you why... and your lawn (and wife) will thank you when the ODR season is over... if you use the right rink liner. Grab a beverageand enjoy the conversation

  • Get Busy Liv'n or get eaten by a bear

    This week we have Andy LaFond and Get Busy Liv'n in the BBQSC.com studio talking about living the one life you have. Rink or no rink, we lean into the outdoor lifestyle and doing what you love. Conversation ranges from who "could be" eaten by a bear, the 1 item to NEVER leave at home or planning that ultimate outdoor adventure trip - maybe landing by plane on a lake , riding a burro or in a motorcycle sidecar. Your backyard to a mountain rivers ... don't be lazy, that's not what the "L" in GBL.com stands for.

  • The JUG Guru

    This week - WE GOT MAIL, EMAIL! Then we take a quick 14 hour drive north to Winnipeg Canada for JUGS and talk'n ODR curling with the Glenn and the Buchanan's Jug Club! Turns out if you're from Canada you either play hockey or curl. Jimmy learns about "Canadian Leafs", not the ones in Toronto and how crazy the club is, and just like them... you don't want to miss this. We learn about their bar, pot lucks and if you can have an OD pizza oven in Canada. Oh... did we mention the beer there in Canada - so grab a Lake of the Woods and let's get going.

  • Fire and Ice. Chicken Wings, Chili & Pizza

    We needed to take a break this week from talking about the warm weather and how we've not been skating, and talk about BBQ. You gotta 'Feed the beast'! We know that everyone has to feed the kiddos when they are skating, why not let them make personal pizzas.... in your pizza oven? We chat this week with Mike Luce, owner of the Barbeque Supply Company, about cooking pizzas, pizza ovens, chili, and chicken wings. We cover the hard questions "Is there a right way to cook chili" and Chicken wings: sauce or no sauce." Grab a beer, sit back and enjoy.
