Tall Can Audio - A Pint Of Canadian Sports Talk

Just a couple minutes we cut out of Monday's show where Rob and Matt discuss whether or not a band can be both iconic and underrated at the same time as well as where your musical tastes were likely established and grew from.

On episode 948 Matt is joined by legendary Canadian stand up comic, writer, podcaster and musician John Wing.

We'd love it if you'd take a moment to support the podcast by leaving a rating there inside your app. It will only take a moment but it helps us out a ton.

John is one of Matt's favourite comics and after only a little bit of cajoling we were able to convince him to join the show. Lots to cover on this one including the reason why Johnny Carson was always such an ultimate goal for comedians of all stripes, how music ended up playing such a huge role in John's career, some of the differences in performing in Canada and the United States and, as per usual, some Toronto Maple Leafs banter.

Things are moving fast across the NHL so Rob and Matt are dropping this week's show a little early.

Please take a second to support the podcast by leaving a rating and a review on your podcast app.

Up first: Carlos Correa shocks the world and signs with the Minnesota Twins instead of the Houston Astros or New York Yankees. But might the table already be set for the Atlanta Braves to pick him up in a year?

And then we get in to the Sens dealing for Travis Hamonic, the Leafs picking up Mark Giordano, the Bruins landing Lindholm, the Panthers and Lightning going to war in Florida, more moves from Calgary and Colorado and lots more.

Beware The Schreids Of March as Michaela Schreiter returns with tons to get to.

Do us a solid and leave us a rating there inside your podcast app. It helps us out a ton and only takes you a moment.

We kick off the show with a little love for wrestling legend and WWE Hall of Famer Scott Hall following his passing before moving in to our usual craft beer preamble.

Talk quickly turns to Tom Brady's 40 day retirement from the NFL and why he's already decided to return.

Last weekend we saw lots of huge news around the world of Women's Hockey as Pittsburgh hosted the Rivalry Revenge game between Team Canada and Team USA and Jeff Marek reported on Hockey Night that we could be on the verge of seeing a professional league being created with the PWHPA. Where are we at and why is it taking so long for this to happen?

We're only a week removed from the end of the Major League Baseball lockout and the Toronto Blue Jays and other squads are making moves all over the place while the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox complain about Canada's vaccination requirements. What's caught our hosts' eyes thus far?

March Madness is upon us and Schreids has her bracket all filled out and has a couple sleeper picks for you.

And we settled the chronological timeline vs Top Tweets debate for Twitter once and for all.

Give Michaela Schreiter a follow on social media @Schreids and check out her craft beer musings on IG @craftedinthecapital. Catch her on She's Got Game across the TSN Radio Network every weekend.

On Tuesday MLB Ownership announced that they were cancelling regular season games as their self-inflicted work stoppage continues. We're joined today by a couple guys who have been following it closely in Andrew Stoeten of TheBatFlip.ca and Mike Wilner of the Toronto Star.

We'd love it if you'd take a second to support the podcast by leaving a rating and a review there on your app. It makes a big difference for us and only takes a moment.

Lots to cover today including the quick disappearance of optimism on Monday night that a deal might be close, whether we should be surprised at how any of this has played out, what this work stoppage is all about, what comes next and when this may all be solved and finally how the Toronto Blue Jays specifically fit in to this equation.

And since talking business instead of on-field baseball is painful, we wrapped things up with a little actual Jays talk and how much fun the couple weeks in between a deal being reached and the season actually starting could be with tons of player movement.

We were pretty lucky to land such knowledgeable guests for a show like this so a huge thanks to the guys for joining us.

You can find Mike Wilner's work in The Toronto Star and his show Deep Left Field is available wherever you get your podcasts.

Andrew's work, as well as his show Blue Jays Happy Hour, can be found at TheBatFlip.ca where there is both a free and a paid tier.

Tons to cover here including a crazy night in Detroit between the Leafs and Wings, whether it's finally ok to panic over Toronto's goaltending situation, the Habs dead-cat-bounce, the Calgary Flames becoming real, Auston Matthews vs Connor McDavid, what the Russian invasion of Ukraine might mean across the sports world and plenty more.

It's a little different today, guys.

Russia has invaded Ukraine in an unprovoked war of aggression and the world as we know it has been completely destabilized. Seemed odd to try to ignore that and talk about other stuff.

We needed to focus on this. If you've heard enough about it you can look for episode 941 a little later on where we'll do the normal sports talk.

But until then... we hope you'll join us here.
