Episode Rich Wrote an Adult Romance Book… So We Made Him Explain It Cover

Rich Wrote an Adult Romance Book… So We Made Him Explain It

he Conversationalist Ep. 74 — Rich’s Book Launch The full crew is back for Episode 74, and this one comes with a special announcement: Richard F. Lubin has written and published his first book, The Neighbor. In this episode, Ryan, Rich, Kelvin, and Mark catch up with classic Conversationalist chaos before diving into Rich’s new project — where the idea came from, what it took to finish it, the nerves of putting personal writing into the world, and how the book came together with help from local Alberta creatives. From sports and pop culture to self-publishing, creative vulnerability, and Rich officially stepping into author mode, this episode is equal parts funny, awkward, and genuinely meaningful. The Neighbor by Richard F. Lubin will be available for purchase on Amazon May 23.

Episode When Youth Sports Go Too Far Cover

When Youth Sports Go Too Far

Ryan and Rich are back for a two-man episode of The Conversationalist, kicking things off with a Mother’s Day burger crawl, unfair burger rating systems, and the shocking question nobody asked: should a burger automatically come with fries? From there, the conversation turns into a deeper discussion about youth sports, coaching, discipline, competitiveness, and where the line is between building young athletes up and pushing them too far. Rich shares his experience helping coach youth football, while Ryan reflects on his own time in soccer and boxing, breaking down how different coaching styles can shape athletes for better or worse. This episode is a mix of casual laughs, real debate, sports culture, and classic Conversationalist chaos — just Ryan and Rich keeping the table moving. New episodes weekly. Clips daily.

Episode Would You Give Up Your Window Seat? Cover

Would You Give Up Your Window Seat?

In this episode of The Conversationalist, Mark and Rich hold it down as the newly formed dynamic duo. The episode kicks off with Mark recapping his Red Deer basketball tournament, where the boys got bumped up from rec league, launched threes, and somehow turned losing into a strategy. From there, Mark and Rich get into playoff hockey, the Ottawa Senators being eliminated, Oilers optimism, NBA frustrations, modern basketball, and NFL Draft reactions. Later, the conversation shifts into Ticketmaster resale prices, expensive concert weekends, 6Buzz-style clickbait, and the way social media can turn a normal story into panic fuel. The biggest debate of the episode: if you paid for a window seat on a flight and a parent asked you to move so their kid could look outside… would you move? This episode is loose, funny, sports-heavy, and full of the kind of everyday arguments that make The Conversationalist what it is. If you enjoyed this episode, make sure to like, comment, and subscribe to Spare Bedroom Studios. Let us know in the comments if you would give up your window seat or keep the seat you paid for. New episodes of The Conversationalist are available on YouTube and all audio platforms. #TheConversationalist #SpareBedroomStudios #Podcast #CanadianPodcast #EdmontonPodcast #WindowSeatDebate #Clickbait #Ticketmaster #NHLPlayoffs #NBAPlayoffs #NFLDraft #OldManBasketball #MarkAndRich #PodcastClips #comedypodcast

Episode Dinner Clubs, Comedy Cafes & When Opinions Get You Sued Cover

Dinner Clubs, Comedy Cafes & When Opinions Get You Sued

In Episode 71, Ryan, Rich, and Lewis cover a bit of everything — from local comedy and intimate dining experiences to restaurant economics, public controversy, and the question of how far podcasters can go before opinions turn into real legal risk. Ryan breaks down his experience at The Moon YEG, an Edmonton comedy venue with a very unique atmosphere, while Rich talks through a night at Marrow Dinner Club in Ottawa — a small chef-led dining experience built around curated multi-course meals. Marrow describes itself as a “fully immersive chef table experience” and says it hosts private dinner events from its Orleans location. If you enjoy honest roundtable conversations on culture, media, local experiences, and the stuff people are actually debating, make sure you’re subscribed to Spare Bedroom Studios and drop your take in the comments. Mentioned in this episode: The Moon YEG on Instagram: @themoonyeg Marrow Dinner Club on Instagram: @marrow_dinner_club Marrow also promotes itself as a chef-table dinner experience in Ottawa/Orleans. #TheConversationalist #SpareBedroomStudios #EdmontonPodcast #CanadianPodcast #Comedy #Restaurants #Podcasting #Media #Alberta #MovieTalk

Project Hail Mary Better Than Interstellar? | The Conversationalist Ep. 70

Welcome back to The Conversationalist for Episode 70 — the so-called platinum episode. Ryan, Kelvin, Mark, and Rich kick things off with classic group banter before getting into what the boys have been up to lately, including Rich’s brewery ad, airsoft at Yeg Soft, rage rooms, nerf rooms, escape rooms, and why half these activities are fun but way too expensive. From there, the conversation shifts into March Madness, NBA injuries, and one of the better sports discussions of the episode: how NIL money and the transfer portal are changing college sports, why more athletes may stay in school longer, and how different the system is now compared to the old sit-out rules. Later in the episode, the guys pivot into movies, with Kelvin giving his take on Project Hail Mary, comparing it to Interstellar, and breaking down why he thinks it may actually be the better film. The episode wraps with more laughs, late-show chaos, and a quick plug for KL Cleaning (https://chcassociation.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e3bcb331b13d9d2596e6b5026&id=209844d95c&e=53134b35bf [https://chcassociation.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e3bcb331b13d9d2596e6b5026&id=209844d95c&e=53134b35bf]) in their local voting push.
