Phil & Matt talk about their recent landscaping adventure, sharing their annoyance of black flies. Phil talks about lawn grass and an easier option: a clover lawn. They show that two social scientists can indeed do manual work--but neither could everyday!

Hockey Cards - Part 1 (17:56)

 Matt & Phil are joined by a collection of hockey cards from Phil’s past. They crack open a few binders and boxes of cards from the 1990’s. The story goes that it all started with a convenience store-owning uncle, but turned into a collection of life and hockey memories. From Manon Rhéaume to Patrick Roy, and (Captain) Kirk McLean to Martin Brodeur, Matt & Phil talk about their favorite goaltenders. Take a trip down memory lane with this episode all about cards.
