Flames Scorp's podcast: Down Goes Brown, Loubardias coming soon

I would normally post a new episode of my show in the dedicated thread for it; however, this week calls for special circumstances.

I'm joined on the show this week by an extra-special guest: PHWA member, Flamesnation managing editor, 960 guest, and Calgarypuck poster Ryan Pike. We talked for over an hour about the Flames' past, present, and future, and it was a ton of fun. The episode, "Recipes for Success," is available here:

I really hope you enjoy the show and I'd love to hear some feedback about it! I want to thank Ryan for the chat, it was a great time.

It was a treat to listen to two hours of flames talk while I packed and cleaned the house today. Nice work Scorp (and Freeway)!

Another solid episode, listened at work again. You can jump from talking about airpods being lost in the mail into hockey talk or other completely different topics without things feeling disjointed at all. Not everyone can do that so naturally. Excellent guest again too.

I'm really happy to announce that Peter Loubardias has agreed to come on a future edition of the show. Not entirely sure what the timing will look like. But it's always been a dream of mine to have a great hockey chat with Loubo. It's going to be so much fun.

Oh man, I didn't know how much I missed talking about the Flames.

Great interview, great podcast. Listened to the first one too.

Loubardias will be the easiest guest you ever have. You don't need to prewrite any questions, he'll ask them for you.

You know what I always say you need to have to put out a good podcast? Confidence.

Might be a bit above my pay grade. Looking to get some players (past and present) on the show, though.

You mean what it the “C” word that you need?

(Steinberg says some other random word)

Confidence.

I don't like people but I love Loubo.

Grew up going to Regina Pats games in the 80s listening to Loubo on the pre and post game drives. Good times.

Speaking from extensive personal experience, there are few nicer things than a nice chat with Lou.

As good as he is as an announcer, he's an even better human being.
