The Crazy Canucks Episode #41 and #42

So much content so little time so. Alanah and J.J. take the wheel for Episode #41 and interview the CBC’s Shanel Pratap.

In Episode #42 Dave gives us a great history of the Summit Series of 1972 and the modern-day Super Series. John produced these (as usual) meanwhile my only contribution is a snippet of a radio interview about the new beer cups at GM Place, which was a lot of fun. Check out the show notes for links and info, here are a few more details about each episode:

Shanel spent four days at Canucks training camp in Victoria, B.C. Our crew chats with him, gets inside his head a little, and look ahead at what we can expect by what he saw at training camp. [The Crazy Canucks – Episode #41 ]

DaveO chimes in with an editorial about the 2007 Super Series between Canada and Russia. He goes through a brief history of the 1972 Summit Series and relates it to the recent series, telling you why the hockey world should have payed more attention. [The Crazy Canucks – Episode #42

Speaking of podcasting, last night we met up with Mark Blevis from the Canadian Podcast Buffet for a Vancouver Podcast Meetup. He’ll be in town for the next week, should be at Third Tuesday tomorrow and sure knows his podcasting (from shows to gadgets).

And remember, if you have a favourite hockey blog be sure to let people know because the Georgia Straight’s perception that HFBoards is the best source for Canucks talk is pretty skewed (for a little help, I have a ‘hockey blogroll’ on my sidebar).
