The CEBL Show

This week Sean Woodley and Amy Audibert come together after some much deserved rest for Amy last week to put a capper on the CEBL's third season. They chat about the Edmonton Stingers and whether their dominance is a good or bad thing for the health of the league, the celebration that was championship weekend in Edmonton, and their big takeaways from the 2021 campaign. Thanks for listening all season long! We'll see you again in 2022 (or hey, maybe a little earlier than that). 

This week Sean Woodley is joined by Jason Thom to recap CEBL Quarterfinal Weekend before chatting about the momentous addition of the Scarborough Shooting Stars as the league's eighth franchise and the CEBL's award winners before teeing the semifinal matchups between Niagara and Fraser Valley, and Edmonton and Ottawa. 

The playoffs are here! Sean Woodley and Amy Audibert spend this week's show previewing the two quarterfinal matchups on tap for Saturday and Sunday in the CEBL. First, they talk about the key battlegrounds as Hamilton hosts Ottawa. Can Nick Ward navigate double-teams successfully? Can Lindell Wigginton's supporting cast knock down shots? Then they turn their attention out west as the Frasey Valley Bandits gets set to host the Guelph Nighthawks on Sunday. They discuss the two teams' very different regular season scripts, and compare the Bandits' balanced attack with the Nighthawks' import-led perimeter group that certainly has the star power to pull off an upset.

This week Sean Woodley and Amy Audibert team up without a guest to whip around every team in the CEBL and take stock of the league ahead of the final push towards the playoffs. They kick things off with a chat about the return of fans in every arena across the league, and why that raises the stakes for the teams vying to host a quarter-final match-up on their home court. Then they run through each team in the league and where they stand with just a couple weeks to go. Can Guelph pull themselves out of the mud or can the Rattlers make the race for the 6-seed interesting? Is Ottawa finally ready to put together a run? Who will take the 2-seed and the bye to the semis between Niagara, Hamilton and Fraser Valley? And who would you pick to win it all -- Edmonton, or the field? 

This week, Sean Woodley and Amy Audibert are joined by CEBL broadcaster Jason Thom to talk about the first couple weeks of CEBL action before diving into the three teams Jason calls games for in Southern Ontario -- Hamilton, Guelph and Niagara -- and the very different starts for each of those teams. Plus, an unplanned discussion of Canada's men's basketball team's let down in the Olympic Qualifying Tournament! 

It's Opening Day in the CEBL! To mark the occasion, Sean Woodley and Amy Audibert run through their power rankings of the league's seven teams before the season tips off. Where do the defending champion Stingers slot in? Are the Bandits and Blackjacks up against the clock to build chemistry? What about the truly enormous Saskatchewan Rattlers? All that, and more! 

This week Sean Woodley and Amy Audibert open up on a celebratory note as they dig into the CEBL getting government approval to play this season in-market starting June 24th! Next, they discuss the 2019 CEBL Finals MVP Alex Campbell signing on with Fraser Valley along with fellow 2019 champ Shaquille Keith, and the Honey Badgers' signing of former 5-star recruit Trevon Duval. Then in the interview portion of the show, defending CEBL champ and new Saskatchewan Rattler Travis Daniels joins the show to talk about his move from the Stingers to the Rattlers, the league's growth over the last three years, Greek food and so much more. 

This week we're going heavy on Niagara! Sean and Amy open up the show with a chat about the recently announced Our Game documentary set to air on CBC on Saturday at 1pm before reacting to the River Lions signing Phil Scrubb for the 2021 season. Then, they're joined by Niagara head coach and GM Vic Raso to chat about his season preparations, the infusion of talent his roster has seen in the last few months, the success of Trae Bell-Haynes both at home and abroad, and the arrival of Dave Smart down in St. Catherine's. 

This week Sean Woodley and Amy Audibert remark upon the signings of Marlon Johnson in Edmonton and Mamadou Gueye in Guelph before chatting with Hamilton Honey Badgers head coach Ryan Schmidt. They chat about Ryan's experience coaching with Raptors 905 in the G-League bubble at Disneyworld, the progress of Duane Notice as he makes his way back from injury, his excitement for extra time to get to know his team after last year's condensed Summer Series, the progression of JV Mukama as a scoring option, and the Highway 6 Rivalry with his 905 colleague Charles Kissi and the Nighthawks. 

This week, Sean Woodley and Amy Audibert chat about the news that the CEBL season start has been pushed back to June 24th from June 5th, break down some of the latest signings and re-signings in the league, and the Montreal expansion team's naming competition. Next, they're joined by Edmonton Stingers forward Jordan Baker to discuss his new coaching job with the NAIT Ooks of the USports West division, the Stingers' off-season loss of Travis Daniels, what makes Xavier Moon so good, the very underrated Mathieu Kamba, and so much more.
