    Between the Whistles with Mikey Diesel - Episode 23

    The draft happened. The dust absolutely did not settle. Mikey Diesel is back with Episode 23 of Between The Whistles, and this one got out of hand in the best possible way. The V.V.H.L Season 12 Draft brought everything you’d expect — rumors, last-minute decisions, surprises, steals, reaches, roster debates, people loving their teams, people questioning everybody else’s teams, and enough chaos to give us the longest episode of Between The Whistles to date. Draft night is over. The opinions definitely aren’t. This week, Diesel breaks down everything surrounding the draft, what happened once the picks started coming off the board, and what the league looks like now that the Season 12 rosters are built. And we’ve got a very special conversation with someone who has been part of the V.V.H.L story from the beginning. SPECIAL INTERVIEW — ROSEPETALKILLER V.V.H.L founder RosePetalKiller joins Diesel for a conversation about the league, its history, the community that grew around it, and the journey from the early days of the V.V.H.L to where we stand today heading into Season 12. It’s a chance to hear from one of the people who helped build this thing before most of what exists today was even an idea. A Week with Mikey DieselIt was draft week. So yeah... Diesel has some shit to talk about.

Mental Health MinuteEven during one of the loudest and busiest weeks on the V.V.H.L calendar, we take a few minutes to step away from the game and talk about something bigger than hockey. Because behind every pick, every roster and every gamertag is an actual person. The Sin BinAnother trip inside one of the longest-running segments on Between The Whistles as Diesel gets beyond the hockey and into the personalities that make up the V.V.H.L community. 5 FOR ROUGHINGReal-life b******t still deserves hockey penalties.

    Between the Whistles with Mikey Diesel - Episode 20

    EPISODE 20 IS HERE — AND SO IS THE NEW HOME OF THE V.V.H.L. Twenty episodes of Between The Whistles. Eleven seasons of the V.V.H.L. And for Episode 20, Mikey Diesel has the biggest announcement we’ve made on the show yet: VVHOCKEY.COM IS LIVE. The V.V.H.L officially has a new home on the web. What started as a group of people getting together to play Chel has grown into something much bigger — a community with its own history, rivalries, personalities, broadcasts, podcasts, traditions, champions and friendships that go well beyond the virtual ice. Now that community has a home built for it. VVHOCKEY.COM represents the next evolution of the V.V.H.L and another major step toward what we’ve always believed this league could become. Episode 20 celebrates that next chapter while still delivering everything that makes Between The Whistles what it is. A Week with Mikey Diesel It wouldn’t be BTW without finding out what the hell happened in Diesel’s world this week. Around the League Season 11 keeps rolling, and Diesel gets into the latest games, storylines, conversations and everything else making noise around the V.V.H.L. Mental Health Minute For a few minutes, we put the controllers down and the chirps aside. Because as much as we love this game, there are things that matter a hell of a lot more than hockey. THE SIN BIN — Slam Chunk The V.V.H.L’s only woman is headed to the box. Slam Chunk has carved out her own place in this community, but apparently being one of a kind doesn’t come with immunity from Diesel. She’s been called to the Sin Bin, the door is closing, and now we find out what she did to earn the sentence. Mount Rushmore Four spots. One topic. And absolutely no chance the entire V.V.H.L agrees with Diesel’s four. 5 FOR ROUGHING The segment where hockey penalties meet real-life aggravation. Got a coworker, friend, neighbor, family member or random pain in the ass who deserves five minutes in the box? You send us the story. Diesel hears the case. Then he hands down the sentence. But Episode 20 is also a chance for us to recognize just how far this show has come. Twenty episodes of interviews, laughs, chirps, arguments, Mental Health Minutes, Unsung Heroes, Sin Bin sentences, Mount Rushmores and conversations with the people behind the gamertags. That last part is what matters. Between The Whistles has always been about the people behind the V.V.H.L. The game brings us together. The community is what keeps us here. So whether you’ve been listening since Episode 1, appeared on the show, sent in a question, gotten thrown into the Sin Bin, submitted a 5 for Roughing, shared an episode, or just threw on BTW while going about your day — thank you for being part of the first 20. And now we start building what comes next.
