many of the guests on 960 bored me tbh

the ones I get up for are seravelli and friedman . obviously barnburner isn't going to be pulling those guys so hopefully they can make up for it in other ways

LOL, that was an excellent show. Oh, how I missed their bull####.
Rhett talks about holding in a sneeze because he hurt his ribs and something bad happened. Boomers like "did you #### yourself?", I died.
I missed the first half and came in to hear him say that and forgot they could curse now.

But no, he gave himself a hernia holding in the sneeze, ooof.

I enjoyed today's show a lot. For sure, I expect growing pains as they establish themselves and get future guests on. But I think the show has a ton of potential. Will continue to be a regular listen for me.

Is their YouTube channel their own, or are they looped in with the nation network and all the Canucks and Oilers crap still?

I do also like the live chat as well. Not sure how much folks on here are twitch watchers, but having the live chat makes it way more engaging for me.

I was a little bummed out by the pessimism tbh . it is refreshing to get unfiltered Flames talk though and not just tire pumping all around the table

Day 2 was 100% better than Day 1. Listening to podcast version. It’s clean and pretty good content.

I do hope they incorporate more sound bites, similar to the old show. Mocking other broadcasts, audio clips etc was a big part of the fun for me

Feel like this was a mistake. Oh well, they will learn eventually.

Today’s episode was great. Audio issues worked out. Does need a better background for us video enthusiasts.

You can tell they’re struggling where to look in regards to the camera, or each other.

With that said, I’ve already rang the bell to remind me. Too bad they have oilers and Canuck #### on there

Man that episode 2… just inject it into my veins…

Actual nuanced Flames talk instead of endless pandering.

Interesting take - Johnny wound up in Clb because he and Gubranson’s baby mommas were pals.

LOL at that order, no wonder Greg loved Rhett that’s like $2500+ in meat.

Boomer's segway into that take was fantastic...

total tear down would have been ridiculously stupid considering some of the players and contracts they have, the salary cap space, division, and what was being offered to them via trade.

seems like he was going out of his way to be different...we can call 960 homers the Flames are ranked very highly everywhere else too though

Warrener doesn’t need to try to be different. He is different. He was the guy calling for the team to cash in and trade Gio when he was at his peak. As a guy who got to the finals 3 times and never won, he has a unique perspective on things which I appreciate although I don’t always agree with it.

Exactly, this is always his take

you can't just trade away players forever though...if you want even a chance at winning you have to take some shots

It would be like folding every hand in poker, you might last longer but you will never win. In a league where 31 teams lose its not that hot of a take to always say a team isn't good enough. I can do that with every team and get 31 of 32 correct this season.
