No Guest this week, life got busy, but fear not! Still got the good ole league recaps.  

Week 3 was a wild one to recap with our first triple header Saturday, and 4 HIGH SCORING GAMES! 

We get into it with the regular jokes and ads. 

PLUS, we sit down with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers LEGEND Chris Streveler. Not only did he bring a Grey Cup back to Winnipeg after 29 years, and play in the NFL with the Cardinals, Ravens, Dolphins, and Jets, but he is also a stand up guy. We had a great conversation about his career, decision to retire, and what is next for him post football. *Hint* He is pivoting to broadcasting, and after watching his recaps and sitting down to talk with him, it's safe to say he has a bright future behind the microphone.

Second week of the regular season, and we are SO BACK baby. 3 Incredible games that had us feeling like it was October already with the sheer volume of highlight reel plays and high scoring games. We chat about it in the first half, before bringing the young punting GOAT Nathan Walker on to discuss his INCREDIBLE Pre-season play against the Ti-cats. Nathan was drafted in the 7th round with the 57th pick by the Toronto Argonauts, and in his last season with York he punted for 2160 yards. We break down the play, how he got into the game, and whats next for the CFL Free agent.

FIRST WEEK OF THE REGULAR SEASON IS HERE FOLKS!

We recap the 3 games of the first week of the season before hopping into an interview with Julian Mckenzie! Julian is a sports journalist, writing about the NHL for the Athletic, co-hosting the Chris Johnston show, and recently wrote the book Black Aces:  Essential Stories from Hockey's Black Trailblazers. We discuss the book, and the writing process, but since we are a football podcast, I try to get Julian to convince me to like the Montreal Alouettes. Does he succeed? Do I make any sense? Lets find out!

Yeah this is not a long intro. This is just so my first episode is not just jumping into the pre-season with zero context of what the heck this is about. 

New episodes EVERY Tuesday.
