  • Show #317---End of the Line for 2025-26 for Our Caps

    Recorded April 19, 2026

     

    Anna and I sadly close the Caps 2026 season on something of a sour note, despite Our Caps winning their last several games. Before that however is something of a thank you and a plug for some local breweries that have helped enjoy these games, win or lose. After recapping the final two games, Anna and I take time to thank you the loyal listeners for helping keeping things going so well and for being part of the greatest fanbase in the world.

     

    Reminder---all this week YOU the listener have a chance to have your say one on one with ME The Blueliner OnPoint in evaluating what happened with Our Caps this season.

    If not, have a happy safe and wonderful summer and we will see you next season!

  • Show #316---Caps are Sticky Like Fake Wallpaper!

    Recorded April 12, 2026

     

    The Mermaid is back from Spring Break!  Of course she spent it on a worthwhile project as we all get to hear...

    Afterwards we discuss the Caps (STILL!) surviving another 2-1 week thanks largely to contributions from their younger players. NOTE---this recording does NOT include coverage of today's game vs Pittsburgh.

    Next week we are looking for guests to help us wrap up the season. Please give contact us on our Facebook page or me personally at [email protected] if interested.

    Recorded April 5, 2026

    (Programming note---episode was recorded before the game vs the NY Rangers)

    Happy Easter Caps fans!

    Ms. Jindependent comes back for another week to go over.....another 2-1 week for Our Caps. She also presents a data report going over what might have been if the Power Play performed with Hutson-like efficiency earlier in the season.

  • Show #314---Mad Ways in the Midwest Guest Co-Host Jini Clausen

    Recorded March 29, 2026

     

    Ms. Jindependent Jini Clausen joins us for another week to break down what, at times, was a wild Western trip for Our Caps. As you can imagine with so much to unpack the commentary runs a bit long, but if yoiu're vlowing off steam like we were then you will find it well worth the extra time.

     

    As is her custom, Jini has come up with another key stat breakdown that is worth watching as the Caps finish their season. As always if you want in on the conversation, get in touch with us: [email protected].

  • Show #313---Doing More than Just Surviving Special Guest Starring Al Given

    Recorded March 22, 2026

     

    This week we have a very special episode centered around a local event that benefits Hockey Fights Cancer. We;ve told you in the past the fight goes on past cancer month and now we are backing up what we say. Joining the Mermaid and myself is Al Given who is representing the Haymarket IcePlex where the event is being held. Al himself is both a Veteran and a Cancer survivor who has led a full life; you will love hearing about the event itself and how he got into hockey. Special thanks to Anna's friends Billy and Mike for mentioning the charity event to her.

    We then go into the week's games on the ice---Our Caps playoff hopes may be dimming but capturing 5 out of 6 standings points against sometough competition makes for a good week overall.

    Keep your eyes out as we plan to plug this event all week long---it will take place March 28th. Email Kara Given at [email protected] if you wish to participate and/or purchase raffle tickets.

  • Show #311---All the Feels after Deadline Deals.....

    Recorded March 8, 2026

     

    Well.....Caps management has pulled the trigger. And whatever the desired effect was, the result hasn't been good.

     

    Anna and I go over the two games played which were of course, losses. Anna then gives her take on the departure of both Nic Dowd and John Carlson as well as what the Caps have looked like since. Spoiler alert---kindness got left at the door.

     

    Next week the Mermaid will be off...if you're reading this and would love to be on the show for the next episode, drop us a line....

  • Show #310 Hockey is Back and so are We!

    Recorded March 1, 2026

     

    It is good to have Caps hockey back! Even better when they win.....mostly. The Mermaid and I go over all three games. Two wins and one bad loss. We discuss it all.

    To begin however we give our props to the Gold Medal winning US Olympic Womens hockey team. 

    Finally we go over the upcoming schedule as far as the Caps playoff chances as well as what will happen at Friday's Trade Deadline: nothing.

     

    We aren't the only ones with our eye on Caps' puck.....check out some other Caps fan made podcasts as listed below:

  • Show #309---Breaking Things Down with Special Guest Co Host Jini Clausen
    Recorded February 8, 2026
     
    Ms. Jin-dependent Jini Clausen checks in with us in our last episode before the long Olympic break.
     
    After commiserating and complaining about the ongoing hyper winter weather here in the DMV….We take time to put a post mortem on the situation with the Washington Post. In particular we send our best vibes to Bailey Johnson who was until recently the Caps beat writer.
     
    We then recap all 3 games from another winning week...Caps come out 2-1 as the begin their battle to earn a playoffs spot. After the recaps, Jini presents her report on the homework assignment she was given many weeks ago about a key stat for Our Caps. Anna gives her own take from her perspective as well. We like to say this is a one of a kind type of show. Trust me you will want to tune in to this discussion--you will not get it anywhere else.
     
    The show takes a bit of a happy detour admittedly as we have a bit of trouble saying goodbye to you loyal listeners. Among the random subjects tossed out---Tom Wilson (naturally!) the Olympics and especially the performance of the Women's teams in their tournament.
     
    Enjoy the Games! We will see you in a few weeks!

  • Show #308---From Embarrassment to Elation

    Recorded February 1, 2026

     

    Anna returns from some time off and just in time for one of the more....dramatic weeks for Our Caps. Listen as we recount (after talking about the weather)...the early flat effort early in the week vs. the Kraken....only to overcome massive injuries to earn victories in back to backgames that went beyond regulation.

     

    Like I said....dramatic. Could not be prouder of this team. Hopefully you will be too. Next episode will be our last before the Olympic break. Enjoy!
