JD Bunkis kicks off the show by recapping an electric start from Yusei Kikuchi and why he is now the definitive Blue Jays number two starter, without a doubt. JD then welcomes on new Carolina Hurricane forward and former Maple Leaf, Michael Bunting! (00:07) They go over his time in Toronto, what type of negotiation he had with the Maple Leafs, how his relationship was with Sheldon Keefe, his suspension in the playoffs, and what his favourite memories playing with the Maple Leafs were.

Then in the podcast-only portion, JD looks at Lionel Messi's success in MLS and if it is good for the league as a whole.
