It's a special edition of The WCHL Podcast as Missouri State Assistant Coach Cliff Cook jumps into the spotlight. Coach Cook discusses this past weekend's MoState games vs. Lindenwood, all the places he's played and coached in the US (including the coldest of all), his long friendship with Jeremy Law and how he ended up at Missouri State, and his brief college hockey career followed by a few years trying to play minor pro. Toss in some coaching philosophy, maybe a book recommendation or two, and a deep appreciation for cricket, and Coach Cook turned this suboptimal podcast into one fun listen! Enjoy!

On this week's edition of The WCHL Podcast, Chris & Andrew talk all about Missouri State's sweep of Midland, Arizona's decision to sit out the season, the past week of games in ACHA D1, a WCHL team breaking into the Top 10 (I wonder who?), and some teams that probably shouldn't be ranked where they are. There's also the usual Nationals chatter (12 teams vs 16 teams) and then the guys veer off into some opinions on recent music releases. Once again, these two "not hockey guys" find a way to kill an hour talking about next to nothing!

WCHL Commish Chris Perry and sidekick Andrew Magerkurth try to thaw out of this deep freeze with some heated banter about the WCHL and ACHA M1 hockey. The guys discuss the first ranking of this pandemic season, Missouri State hosting Midland, other upcoming ACHA matchups, Nationals, conference name stealers, and Ash Wednesday. Andrew says Sorry for your boredom but here it is! HA!

There really wasn't a lot for WCHL Commissioner Christopher Perry and pod co-host Andrew Magerkurth to talk about this week wiht no WCHL/Missouri State games on the docket. Nevertheless, the boys powered through just for you with an update on M1 rankings, Nationals, non-WCHL games during the week ahead, WUG intrigue, Super Bowl bet results, the return of Gritches & Gripes, and warm thoughts for the week ahead. If anything, the pod proves once again that these two really can just talk an awful lot about nothing.... our apologies in advance!

WCHL Commissioner Christopher Perry and podcast sidekick Andrew Magerkurth talk about Missouri State's split with Maryville this past weekend. There's also some talk about other games in ACHA M1, news about Nationals and the World University Games, rumors of a team going NCAA, a possible salt overdose, crickets, Super Bowl bets, and bongos! Yeah, we really do need more hockey, don't we?

A big weekend for Mo State in Ames starts things off on this suboptimal episode of The WCHL Podcast! WCHL Commissioner Christopher Perry & trusty sidekick Andrew Magerkurth talk about the Ice Bears finding their groove at Iowa State, Liberty representing the ACHA and splitting a weekend with LIU, another team in the WCHL calling it a season, predictions for upcoming games including Maryville at Mo State, plus some love for a former pod guest who played in his first NCAA game last week! All that and maybe even some Way-Too-Early Super Bowl chatter is just a click away!
