Signals From The Deep Seattle Kraken

The podcast looks south to sunny Coachella Valley to check in with the voice of the Firebirds, Evan Pivnick. Evan regales us with tales of his career path from Bowling Green State University to the AHL and everything in between. Nick and Evan also provide a nice preview for the Firebirds upcoming playoff run, letting us know what to watch for as the team looks to repeat the historic run they had in their inaugural season.

Nick welcomes Piper Shaw of ROOT Sports for our latest installment of the podcast. They discuss Piper's beginnings in St. Cloud, MN, her path to Seattle, and what motivates her to tell the stories of the Kraken. Piper and Nick give analysis on the trade deadline moves by GM Ron Francis and how that sets the team up for a final playoff push.

It's the one year anniversary of the podcast! To help us celebrate, Nick has brought in former player and current TNT and MSG studio analyst Anson Carter to discuss his journey from growing up in Scarborough, Ontario to the NHL, where he played for eight different teams. Anson also talks about his experience as a Black player in college and professional hockey and how he's used his position to make the game better for future Black players.

The Seattle Kraken have kicked off 2024 in style with a shutout win at the Winter Classic! Host Nick Olczyk has brought in ROOT Sports' very own Eddie Olczyk, JT Brown, and John Forslund to talk about their experiences at T-Mobile Park on New Year's Day. The crew reminisce about past outdoor games and how the Kraken look as a team coming into the second half of the season.

The big 1-0! You asked, we listened. Host Nick and Producer Grant sit down and discuss questions submitted by the listeners and Kraken fans from inside Climate Pledge Arena during a recent pregame. Topics include the rules of hockey, Coachella Valley Firebirds prospects, how coaches and GMs make their moves, and the upcoming Winter Classic.

This week, host Nick Olczyk is joined by KJR newcomer Al Kinisky. They talk about Al's start in hockey, his career in the business world after his playing days, all the way up to his newest gig alongside Everett Fitzhugh on Kraken radio broadcasts.
