With players starting to arrive in Ottawa and the roster nearly set, we bring you a season preview episode, where we answer such questions as "which teammates will Thomas Chabot hug this season?" and "which players will cause the most controversy?"

But first, we call out the Sens for their blatant misogyny in making an important announcement right after we finished recording our last episode.

There is finally hockey news about a team that will actually play within Ottawa city limits! With the news that Ottawa was one of the cities chosen for the new Professional Women's Hockey League, we discuss the new team, potential names, and their 3 free agent signings. We also discuss the other, less important teams in the league and our disappointment that Montreal will be good.

Finally, we talk about the only bit of Sens news that was available to us at the time - Erik Brännström and Tim Stützle in Europe.

Years ago, before this podcast even existed, there was a plan for erikssonsburner to appear on Beata's old podcast, This Amelnykan Life, to talk about sensposting. In a true full circle moment and the most ambitious crossover Sens fandom has ever seen, Beata's Amelykan wife, Poppy, joins the show to discuss what she's been up to since the end of This Amelnykan Life, and brings a special surprise.

Brady Tkachuk is a married man, the Sens are all out of cap space, and hockey fans on tiktok are going viral after being called out by a Seattle Kraken player and his wife. Come for a discussion of all those issues, but stay for the real main event of the episode: our full review of Barbie (2023), complete with references to feminist theory and concluding with the question that no one seems able to answer: Does Brady Tkachuk have Kenergy?

We've decided to take a break from coming up with content ideas and shift that burden onto our listeners instead. For our first ever mailbag episode, we reveal our go-to Kettleman's orders, the Taylor Swift songs that best represent Josh Norris's shoulder, and one anonymous tumblr user's unique journey to becoming a Sens fan.

Before that, though, we take some time to get mad about Alex DeBrincat leaving, and wonder what Trent Mann did to get himself banned from the Canadian Tire Centre.

With the Sens opting to keep quiet during the draft and free agency, we decided now was the perfect time to bring in our friends Morgan (@defensemint) and Victoria (@fakehockeyteam) from Flyers twitter for an episode that spends more time off the rails than on them. Try to follow along as the four of us get sidetracked numerous times while attempting to discuss Matvei Michkov's refusal to eat a Philly Cheesesteak, Sens legend Oliver Bonk, that video where the Sens drafted random strangers into becoming Sens fans, and the recent news in women's hockey.

At long last, the Ottawa Senators have been sold and we have stuff to talk about. Join us as we say farewell to the dream of Snoop Dogg owning the Sens, and come up with an elaborate scheme to keep Alex DeBrincat in Ottawa.

We also discuss the end of the 2023 Stanley Cup playoffs, and go off on several exciting tangents about municipal politics, Canadian tax rates, and bagels.

Someone else agreed to come on! In our second episode with a guest we are joined by Julia, a friend and newcomer to Sens Twitter. We discuss her journey to Sens fandom and how online hockey spaces have evolved over time. We also discuss how, tragically, misogyny is real. 

We also do a quiz on past Sens Twitter memes that determines whether or not you are a true fan. Finally, we talk about the weird uncle energy that Pierre Dorion exudes in his latest media tour.

We are excited to announce that we are joining the Neko Sparks bid and will soon be part owners of the Ottawa Senators. 

With the offseason now fully underway, we weigh in on the ownership discourse that has divided the city of Ottawa, and have an in-depth discussion about the demise of the Toronto Maple Leafs and the glorious meltdown we had the pleasure of watching on Twitter.

Then, we dive into offseason content, looking back at all the players who have left the Sens and choosing a Taylor Swift breakup song to represent each one.

The Sens and Oilers have formed an alliance even though they do not know it yet. In our first episode to feature a guest, twitter user @oilygifs gives us insights about the Sens of the West. We discuss the Oilers' playoff series win against the Kings and how to best hate on the Golden Knights in the second round.

We also talk about whether or not "Canada's Team" truly exists and discuss the fever dream that was Sens vs Oilers in the North Division. Then, we give a hater's eulogy for the Avalanche and Bruins.

Finally, we discuss how every famous person ever wants to purchase your Ottawa Senators.
