Totally Offsides

Chip's conversation with JC, CJ and Art continues with a look back at some of the weirdest storylines of last season. Also, observations and thoughts are given about the Ducks and Kings headed into the new season...and Chip forgets about the No Trash Talk ban. Whoops.

Chip says farewell to the KROQ studio on Venice Blvd, as she is the last person to record anything there. Art from Hockey Punk Clothing, and JC and CJ from Anaheim Calling join her, and as any good host would, she gives them parting gifts for the occasion. They group also discusses the Domi "suspension" and the evolving thoughts on safety , the Sharks' idea for unveiling their 3rd jersey, and the Totally Offsides vs. Anaheim Calling game at Honda Center for 25 Hours of Hockey is recapped.

In a week filled with ALMOST too much hockey news, Chip finds some way inject some nonsense. Chris Hudson and John Broadbent join in to cover the news of the Karlsson trade, the big suspensions, and more. Anders Nilsson spoke out about homophobia in the sport, and John tells his story about being a hockey player and coming out. Ducks rookies and prospects are discussed, and what the emergence of young players may mean for the fate of FA Nick Ritchie. Finally, Chip grosses John out with real foods Americans eat. USA! USA!

Can a Penguins fan and Flyers fan successfully coexist? Josh and Michelle Nakano stop by to talk being married to a member of a rival team's fanbase. Chip recaps some of her night at Ryan Getzlaf's MVP Shootout Party for Cure Duchenne. Jalen Ramsey has run his mouth again, this time claiming he could make the NHL in 6 months. Then most importantly, the crew dresses down a "Best 50 Cereals List".

Beer League teammates Alex Rauch and Michael Thomas return to the podcast, fresh off of their Championship win. This week, the crew tackle a couple of deep #SendIt questions, and Michael's impending move to Orange County. Also, oung hockey players are obsessed with Fortnite, much to the dismay of their GMs. Then, they discuss Michael being really upset about his hero Eric Lindros' recent comments about preventing head injuries. Can the game survive without hits?

Hockey News is light this week, so Chip, George Contreras and Nick Pappas cut through the hockey talk fairly quickly. Ducks Rookie Camp rosters were released, and George talks about his new Ducks tattoo. And in what must be the biggest left turn yet... the group argues over Lord of the Rings and other things of nerdery.

Chip is joined by Mike and Eddie from DucksNPucks this week.  They discuss their approval of the Ondrej Kase deal, The NHL Network sleeping on El Capitan Ryan Getzlaf again, and Chip's new favorite segment: "Goalies are Weird".

Also, why doesn't Tarzan have a beard? It's weird, isn't it?

Chip returns from a week of touring with Well Hung Heart with KROQ's Rich Rubin and Beer League Talk's Nick Fleehart. The group discusses the unwritten rules of Beer League Hockey, decides the Carolina Hurricanes new goal song, and of course... gotta bring back the cereal talk.

Eddy, Jason and Patrick from The Puck Guys and Forever Mighty podcasts stop by. It's been a relatively quiet week in Free Agency, so the "and other stuff" mentioned in the theme song really holds true. Chip politely demands that everyone address her by her newly earned title. "Enter the Dragon" may get a reboot, and the group discusses if there is such thing as an "untouchable" movie. Finally, in "What the Puck", Eddy tells the story about the "One Dollar Man"

Chip's Beer League buddies, Brian and Jason Kazarian, return to the podcast. Chip and Jason fill Brian in on the worst pickup game ever, and Brian talks about Jason's goalie skills as a kid. Listener questions are answered in a new segment called "Send It". The "legendary" Jason Kazarian vs. Bobby Ryan story is broken down, and everyone may side with the Pro. Chip has finally had it with the Miami Dolphins, and Brian has his own thoughts about the Ducks' jersey retirements that he needs to share.
