The wills and pinder dynamic needs to change because it is very toxic and it seems like they seriously dislike each other away from the radio.
IMO pinder brings more to the show or radio than wills.

Wills contributions aren’t relevant in any way to Pinder letting his personal dislike of Wills ruin an otherwise good segment. He’s paid to be a pro. When he and Boomer used to bicker it was funny and they’d move on right away. What Pinder is doing with Will is attack everything he says all the time.
A radio host needs to maintain composure and do everything they can to elevate discussion. Not belittle their guests and cohost.
Wills is the PBP guy. He’s not going anywhere. And as for the segment in question, Wills brought way more to the table than Pinder because Wills was actually trying to talk hockey and share an opinion whereas it seemed that Pinder just wanted to dismiss any opinion that didn’t perfectly align with his own.

Who said they don’t want the radio guys to have opinions? Not sure where you got that one.
This is about having interesting and respectful discussion. It should be informative and engaging, especially when they disagree.
We call people who do what Pinder is doing trolls and they are frequently told to stop making discussions personal. That’s exactly what’s happening on the fan.

I hate his kind of drive by garbage. It’s one thing to be critical and provide some halfway constructive feedback and opinions.
Comments like this make you look bad, not Nault.
