Best in class.

Listened to a few other podcasts until I came across you guys. Stopped searching, scram beat it! By far the best Leafs podcast. I’m a tragic Leaf’s fan from Down Under. Keep up the great work lads.

Big love from down under!

You guys are the best. The podcast drops about 8:30am for me each morning (Melbourne, Australia time) which is an amazing way to wake up. I’m a Pens fan but love the Canadian markets as they take hockey as seriously as Melburnians take Australian Rules Football. Those Toronto fans are hardcore. Players go from hero to villain at such a rate with the fans it’s like real life drama. Keep em comin’ ey boys!
