Join us for a coffee and conversation with Dan Cote-Rosen, the dynamic Vice President of Marketing for the Oilers Entertainment Group (OEG)!
We dive into Dan's unique upbringing, which took him from his birthplace in Montreal to living in fascinating places like France and Brazil before his family eventually settled in Toronto.
Dan shares his surprising career path, starting with high-stakes marketing roles for big names like Coors and Wiser, using his Bachelor of Arts degree to pivot into corporate brand strategy. He discusses how he found his dream role with the OEG in 2016, joining one of the biggest forces in Edmonton sports and entertainment.
But that's not the end of the entrepreneurial story! Amidst global shutdowns in 2020, Dan's creativity pivoted from the arena to the kitchen. Hear the incredible tale of how his passion project, Flat Boy Burgers, started in his home kitchen during the work-from-home era. He details how rapidly the demand grew, forcing him to move to a commercial space and ultimately build multiple successful brick-and-mortar locations (with more coming soon!). This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in high-level marketing, the inner workings of a major entertainment group, and the spark of entrepreneurial success.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
