When it comes to things beyond old England's shores, much like Josh Baskin in Big, Sean doesn't get it!Jim from Film Rage kindly returns to the podcast for the inaugural Explain It Yourself episode, to explain Ice Hockey, after a tangent about football.Admittedly, there is a lot which we don't discuss regarding Ice Hockey, but this is the first episode so Sean didn't think much about structure (out of character I know!)Discussion Points: -Regarding football, Sean isn't calling it soccer.-Ice hockey is part of Canada's identity. -You keep the sports team you were born with in England, and you don't change. This is not the same in Canada with hockey teams. Random Questions:-Why can't you support the same hockey team as your Dad in Canada?-How many players do you get on a hockey team?-Pickle ball? Wiffle Ball? Sean is completely lost. -How can you change YOUR team? -What does 'icing the puck' mean?-Is football violent in England? Sean is surprised that this is the impression of football in Canada and defends his sport. Random Quotes:-"Cover your ears Canada and get the sick bags ready"-"When someone says ice hockey, I think oh Jack Frost!"-"Pickle ball, is that a real thing?"-"You'll get a hot chocolate, a cup of tea, a cup of Bovril (a meaty drink), or a pint of cider and lager" at a football match.After Credits Shameless Plug:A promo for 'Sleeping with the Waffler'-from the guys (okay just Ben) who brought you FilmFloggers and Sopranos Redefined.*The football teams mentioned in the podcast were picked to highlight teams with derby rivalries-not in any way to insinuate that those teams fans are violent*
