Trash talk the golden twins and i'll watch it.

At the very least they won't suck up to/felate them like every other show and media outlet.

Something to occupy them as they're on IR longer and longer on the downslope of their careers.

Didn't Anthony DeAngelo have a podcast that went nowhere?

For the Tkachuks, this is a good way to build a portfolio for a post playing media career if desired.

Zero interest in listening to this regularly but I am sure there will be nuggets of information or detail that will pique my interest that will be posted/go viral. Similar to chiclets I will never listen but see short clips posted online

Wow, I hope they have a lot of guests lined up to talk and share stories. I couldn't get through their introductions before stopping it. I like both of these guys but they come off as a couple of jabronies for sure.

Matthew was the first to put his hand up for the Amazon series and now he's part of a podcast. He's one of the few NHLers trying to grow the game (especially in the states), good on him!

He also went on Jimmy Fallon. He’s definitely leaning into the media side of being an athlete

If Matthew was still a Flame we all know we would be lapping this up. Its funny what happens when the jersey changes.

I'm all for them doing this. Look how big an impact these two had on the hype around the 4 nations. They are clearly good for the game.

I won't be watching but i'll be interested to hear some of the sound bytes for sure

Big personalities sell pro sports. Especially in the U.S. The board of governors should be paying the Tkachuks a share of the increase of their franchise valuations and the hundreds of millions pouring in from expansion.

I actually like Bissonnette. He has a funny personality naturally. He's not necessarily looking for the sound bites. He's a goof who gets slightly riled up at times. Overall it's a funny dynamic.


The Tkachuk brothers come across as guys who are trying to look for attention. They aren't funny. They are about as funny as Beavis and Butthead. Sure they're ready to talk and be in the spotlight but they're not in the same universe of the Chicklets guys.

Bissonette is world's better than Whitney, and that's saying a lot imo

Yeah, I think they see the attention on the Kelces and Gronkowskis of the world and think "I could do that".

I doubt they are doing this to "grow the game".

Doesn’t matter why they’re doing it. They didn’t start the fight at the 4 Nation to grow the game either, but it drew huge media attention in the U.S. to the tournament and the sport.

Yeah, that's what we want. Media attention because of a brawl. The sexual assault trial got media attention too. Yay?
