Whether you believe in evolution or not… scientists say it’s happening right before our eyes. A new study shows moire and more babies are being born without wisdom teeth. This - they say is evidence of rapid evolution. Over the past 250 years … not a million years.. just 250…. humans faces have gotten smaller. Not heads… just faces. Mouths have grown smaller… and we don’t need as many teetth… because we don’t have to work as hard to chew our processed food. So more and more we’re seeing babies born without any wisdom teeth. All of this is happening since George Washington was fighting the revolutionary war. At the same time… babies usually have a 3rd artery that goes down their arm… and into their hands… while they’re in the womb… and it disappears after birth. But lately… the third artery is staying around in more and more babies. And they get an increase of blood flow to the hands. Maybe the additional blood allows them to play GAMES ON their phones longer… and longer. As our mouths grow smaller and smaller… and our teeth disappear. AWhat should take a hundred thousand years… has happened in 250… rapid microevolution. And there’s no indication we’re done with this. Couple hundred years from now your great great great great grandchildren might be just a head with a tiny mouth for inserting a straw…. with really nimble arms coming out of their ears. You say heh heh… Jeff you’re funny. But consider this. The changes have already begun. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Another fun show! Episode 30 features a very interesting interview with Devan McConnell, who is the Head of Hockey Performance and Sport Science at UMass Lowell. Devan shares some fascinating insight on what it takes to help high-level athletes reach peak performance, and some of the technologies and philosophies that go into it. You will definitely enjoy this interview. Also in this episode, with John away at Miracle On Ice Fantasy Camp in Lake Placid, Andy and Darren are left to their own devices for a lot of the show (which John will OBVIOUSLY regret). Fortunately for John, Andy and Darren are nice enough to loop him in for a phone call, on which they discuss John’s experiences at Camp, and the recent news that the CWHL will be disbanding. Plus, Darren recaps his visit to hockey hotbed Montreal, plenty of conversation about the clarifying NHL playoff race, a WHL playoff update, and a NCAA Tournament update. Segments on Episode 30 include Goalie Gear Fighting Corner/You Don’t See That Every Day (combined), Weekly One-Timers (which is a struggle without John’s sound effects), and Games On the Radar. SUBSCRIBE! ENJOY! REVIEW!
It's a gigantic (and slightly tipsy) episode of Sound of Hockey this week, as the guys ended up recording the bulk of the episode following some post-SeaHAC college sodas... See if you can figure out who had the most! Featured on this episode is Alison Lukan, an outstanding writer for TheAthletic who covers the Columbus Blue Jackets with an analytical flair. From Alison, John and Darren learn how she uses that analytical approach to tell her story, while still connecting with a broad hockey audience, and even how she uses her knowledge to connect with John Tortorella. She also gives tons of great Torts anecdotes and gives her opinions on the CBJ trades, so you won't want to miss this interview. Also in this episode, the guys give a thorough review of the fantastic event that was the Seattle Hockey Analytics Conference and what they took away from that, before eventually diving into such segments as "You Don't See That Every Day," "Weekly One-Timers," and "Games On the Radar." Plus plenty of general NHL talk, as always. This is a fun episode filled with chuckles. SUBSCRIBE! ENJOY! REVIEW!
HUMONGOUS EPISODE THIS WEEK! The first ever guest on Sound of Hockey is Dave Tippett, former NHL player, head coach, Jack Adams Award winner, and current advisor for NHL Seattle. Trust us, you won’t want to miss this one whether you’re a Seattle-based hockey fan or not. With Dave, the guys - John, Andy, and Darren - talk extensively about Tippett's experience working on the Seattle project, but they also get into some pretty good hockey talk in general. Tippett shares some awesome stories from his time coaching the Dallas Stars and Arizona Coyotes, explains his metrics for evaluating players, and even tells us what the Dave Tippett blow-up looks like. Oh, and he explains the context of this beautiful video. Also in this episode, a recap of Peter Laviolette’s press scrum in which he donned a life-like bull mask, a riveting update on where the trees around KeyArena are being moved to (oh yes, it’s riveting), a check-in on some of the former WHL players that have reached the NHL. The guys also debate whether the Colorado Avalanche and Carolina Hurricanes are for real, unravel the irony of the Kenya Ice Lions story, and consider the impact of a possible merger between the CWHL and NWHL. Plus Weekly One-Timers, Get Off My Lawn, and Games On the Radar. SUBSCRIBE AND REVIEW!
