This is my favorite hockey podcast. When will new episodes return?
Well done
Really interesting podcast. He does his research and makes it interesting.
Great slice of history
Hockey was much different 50 years ago...some might even say better. Regardless, this pod is a great little time machine. Enjoy the past.
