A new week has landed and the trade deadline has passed, which meant there was a whole lot to talk about on the Monday episode of the podcast.

To kick off the Monday episode of Real Life, the guys got started with a look at the Ja Morant situation that's playing out in the NBA right now as the 23-year-old star finds himself in hot water after an array of issues. If you don't know the story, the Ja Morant situation gets weirder and weirder as you find out more details, but to hear Chalmers recap the whole situation added an extra layer of hilarity. Changing gears, Chalmers spent a few minutes talking about the big UFC fight from this past weekend after Jon Bones Jones made his return to the octagon after nearly a decade away. Getting back to the Oilers, the guys looked at how Ken Holland did at the trade deadline and what everyone's first impressions are of the new guys. For a lot of Oilers fans, it's easy to fall in love with Mattias Ekholm and all of the amazing things he seems to be doing already. In other news, Jack Campbell's struggles continued again on Saturday after the guy allowed six more goals and cost his team the win. Seeing as there is no bottom with Soup's struggles right now, that led the guys to wonder how many more times Jay Woodcroft will play him over the final 18 games. Lastly, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of the Real Life podcast with a preview of tonight's matchup between the Oilers and Sabres as they boys continue their road trip.
