Up here in the U.P., things are built a little different — and I’m not just talking about our snowbanks or our saunas. I’m talking about loyalty. Real, stubborn, shovel-your-neighbor’s-driveway-at-5-a.m. loyalty. And nothing shows that split loyalty better than Packers vs. Lions . According to every Yooper ever born, the U.P. is 30% of Michigan’s land and 3% of the population , and somehow 100% divided when football season rolls in. Half cheer for Detroit because “it’s Mich

A Unique Approach to Lumber Some companies aim for perfect edges. Rhombus Lumber? We strive for character. Right outta Bumbletown, Michigan , Rhombus Lumber has one rule: if it ain’t square, who cares? We’re not here for showroom polish — for sawdust, sweat, and the kind of wood that tells a story. The Beauty of Imperfection You see, perfection is overrated. A Rhombus cut might lean a little left or wander a touch right, but that’s the beauty of it — just like life up north.

A good sauna runs on the same rules as a good hockey bench: respect, rhythm, and a bit of laughter. Here’s how to play the sauna game like a pro. 1. Don’t Rush the Warm-Up Ease in like a smart rookie. You wouldn’t take a slapshot before tying your skates — same logic applies here. Take your time. Let your body adjust to the heat. It’s all about building that cozy vibe, just like warming up before a big game. 2. Respect the Löyly That’s Finnish for steam , the MVP of the whole

You heard that right — Trevor’s dad was literally born in a sauna in the U.P. of Michigan. Back then, the sauna wasn’t a luxury — it was a necessity. Warm, clean, full of life. And that tradition never stopped. For Yoopers, saunas are sacred. They’re where stories are told, friendships are forged, and pride in your roots gets renewed with every cloud of steam. When Trevor fires up the Maverick Sauna on the podcast, it’s more than sponsorship — it’s home. It’s a salute to the

The Upper Peninsula of Michigan isn’t a place you stumble into by accident. It’s a place you earn. Trevor Buck wears that identity proudly — in his podcasts, his merch, and every sincere laugh you’ll catch in podcasts. What’s inspiring is how he blends blue-collar roots with genuine generosity. His podcast episodes are more than interviews; they’re conversations where heroes — get their moment to shine. Trevor’s platform feels like a community center with better audio quality

Trevor doesn’t sugarcoat his story — he talks about the tough stuff too. Homelessness, hard work, and rebuilding from nothing but grit and an old pair of skates. That honesty is what people love most about him. He’s not pretending to be a celebrity — he’s the guy next door who’s been through it, laughed through it, and came out still smiling.

If you’ve ever listened to the Trevor Buck Podcast, you know it’s not about fame — it’s about family . The kind of family that tapes your stick when you’re late, chirps you for a bad pass, and still cheers when you score. From the rink to the sauna, that spirit of togetherness runs deep. It’s what connects players from Michigan to Minnesota to Australia — just good people having a good time, with plenty of chirps in between. Hockey culture teaches you how to laugh through pai
