The Bits

We are not typically a gossip pod - but hey, if one of our very own special boys ends up on the A-list celebrity gossip account, Deux Moi, we're gonna have to talk about it. Plus, did Rogers actually cancel Wayne Gretzky? You probably didn’t notice, but he's been omitted from a commercial highlighting Oilers history with the Cup. Later, we are proud to bring you one of the co-founders of Pride Tape, Jeff McLean. Pride tape was created right here in Edmonton and is now in over 60 countries worldwide.

It was about 40 days ago the ladies of The Bits thought the Oilers were going to have a long off-season - but here we are teeing up the Stanley Cup Final between the Oilers and Florida Panthers. There’s a lot of confidence in this year’s team. We talk what's different this year vs. last year, Special Boys and predictions.

Plus - what the heck is with the men of the NFL?! We are talking Aaron and the recent reports from his ex, Danica Patrick, plus Bill Belichick.... if you don’t know - soon you will know.

The Bits got themselves a national television reporter on the pod! TSN Ottawa Reporter Claire Hanna joins and it’s beautiful girlhood with sports talk. Hanna dives in on her career and its challenges and we get the scoop on the PWHL playoffs, the vibe around the Ottawa Charge. Plus, our guest brings us a different side of one of the Tkachuk brothers that has left us confused. Don’t miss this one.

The NHL Playoffs have taken over our lives, our sleep, our habits and this week’s episode brings a fiery hate (from some) for a fellow Canadian squad. The ladies discuss why the nation hates the Leafs (and we mean, HATE). Join us as we torture ourselves with a Would You Rather Stanley Cup final edition (Warning: It gets heated). This episode also offers another important part of the playoffs as we review the WAG jackets from NHL Playoff teams around the league. Who did it best? You’ll have to listen to find out.

Plus, the PWHL playoffs are getting underway and it’s a high likelihood the championship trophy is coming to Canada…something Canadian men’s teams haven’t been able to do since 1993.

Oilers ADVANCE. In today's special bonus episode, we're coming off the high of the Oilers advancing to round 2 of the playoffs. We pick our "Special Boys" from round 1. Unsure of how the next round will work? We take a look at the Oilers/Vegas matchup, timelines, home ice advantage and insights on the strengths/weaknesses on each team going into the round. We also do a high-level playoff picture of where we're at with other matchups.

Plus, you wanted them again - we've got bold predictions.

Category is: CHAOS. If you’re an Oilers fan, you know exactly what this means. The chaos that is this Oilers vs. Kings series is also the chaos that is Evan Bouchard, and that is the kind of chaos that Paulina and Quinn bring when unsupervised in this episode.

To make this make sense, we’ll chat about the Oilers Kings series, Bouchard’s play which is giving but then taking it all back when the time is right. Ride the rollercoaster and get set for game 5 of the Pacific Division Quarter Final.

The NHL Playoffs are well underway now, and rather than spew some stats about the power play, we’re taking you around the league to teach you about some of the hockey men (and women) across the league. Get set for a snorkel (like, the opposite of a deep dive) into the lives of three NHLers.

We know The Bits love the idea of making big predictions in sports, and this week’s episode is no different - see what big, bold predictions we’ve got for you to chat about with your friends.

Plus, the recent PWHL expansion teams and things get heated as two bitties disagree with the outcome.

Golf is coming off one of its biggest weekends of the season and it brought us history with Rory McIlroy FINALLY completing the career grand slam.

Also, fear not casual hockey fans, we’ve got the NHL playoff format figured out and we’ll walk you through it and tell you some of the first round matchups to watch for.

Plus, the gals have 60 seconds each to convince you of teams to cheer for that aren’t named the Oilers.

Well, a 31 year old NHL record has been broken - congratulations to Alex Ovechkin, the league’s all time goal scorer! He did us a favour by breaking the record literally 30 minutes before we recorded so that we could discuss.

Plus it’s a tradition unlike any other … the Oilers and Kings in the first round of the playoffs! We have some fun with an Edmonton vs LA countdown plus a brand new segment we think you’ll love.

Yup! Let’s brainstorm on that. Love it.

All three gals are back for the first time in a minute and they lament how much things can change for the Oilers in just a week.

Check out our hot takes that went ice cold within only a few days.

We talk White Lotus, but don't worry, we tie it to sports.

And, we will chat about probably the most badass woman on the planet - they don’t come more resilient than Lindsey Vonn!
