Grey Cup Week is always the most-watched week of the year on The RP Show and we had the best coverage of CFL Championship festivities on Fridays Episode #1,123!

Moose Dupont joined Rod live from Grey Cup Festival in Hamilton and took viewers on a tour of all the exhibits and pancake breakfasts along James Street. Friday’s show included predictions (Spoiler Alert: Everyone’s picking Winnipeg to beat Montreal on Sunday), analysis of the match-up, and a recap of the CFL Awards which Dupes attended at Fallsview Casino. The daily Key Auto Group poll question was: Who will be MVP of the 110th Grey Cup – Cody Fajardo, Zach Collaros, Brady Oliveira or Austin Mack? At press time, Oliveira was leading.

CFL On TSN panelist and 5-time Grey Cup champion Jim Barker joined the show for his weekly appearance presented by EMJ Marketing. Barker explained how this week differs from all the rest for the teams, and explored all the match-ups.

In Hour 2 we were joined by legendary CFL coach Jeff Reinebold from his home in Hawaii. The “Sun God” explained that he’s a CFL fan first, and coach second, and would’ve preferred to be in Hamilton however he had to get ready for his NFL coverage on Sky Sports. Reinebold explained weather factors, match-ups and how injuries will affect game projections, and how it plays out.

We also played NFL Deal Or No Deal for Week 11 for our official betting partner Bet Regal.

If you missed the show you can catch the replay at 5:00 pm ET on Game+TV, on our YouTube channel or wherever you enjoy your podcasts.

Enjoy the game and we’ll see you Monday!
