This week’s show featured Jason Strudwick of NHL fame and Wanye – with Gregor taking the week off. The boys chatted with former NHL player and current Bon Vivant Mike Commodore. He gave us his take on Josh Green tackling an A&W mascot for no good reason in Red Deer a few years back and his time in the NHL.
Commodore expounded on Mike Babcock and their tortured relationship and playing on Vladivostok in the KHL. Finally, the episode ended with Wanye wringing his hands about Tiger Woods and Strudwick waving his hands in the air like he just don’t care about the NBA Finals.
