Now more than three years and more than 500 episodes into this podcast, it has evolved into a place where OHL fans can engage, interact, and grow their interest in the league.

So, brace yourself for a no-holds-barred response to the London Knights going against league policy and barring media access to their team before a game. You'll get some in-depth insight into broadcasting, owning mistakes, how Farwell feels about arriving at this place with an OHL team, and his hopes for moving forward. Can you handle the truth? Our weekly Wraparound is chock full of interesting info about every team, we'll talk about those annoying homers, and there's a team hoping to negotiate a contract extension with its coach. Plus, our Prospects of the Week! So, basically, everything you'd expect from your premiere source for OHL information. The OHL Podcast is supported by Draft Kings Sportsbook.

He served at Rideau Hall with the Vaniers from 1964 to 1966 and was there with the Governor-General and Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson as they inaugurated and unfurled the new Canadian flag in 1965. On leaving the forces, Stock specialized in corporate communications and media relations, becoming a speechwriter for the founder of Shoppers Drug Mart and well-known philanthropist Murray Koffler. He was asked to re-enlist as a Public Affairs Officer for the Canadian peacekeepers during the Bosnian War in 1993. After the Dayton Accords ended the conflict in 1995, he returned to Bosnia as a Public Information Officer with the UN International Police Force.He concluded his military service with mandatory retirement, while working as a media relations officer for Emergency Measures Ontario, he played a key role in the Provincial Operations Centre during the devastating ice storm of January 1998. As a member of this team, he received the Amethyst Award, the province's highest award for achievements made by public servants.It's not his only award.

Born in Timmins, Bruce remembers watching the days of the Hollinger Miners dominating a local gold-mining industrial league. It sparked a passion that he's carried with him his entire life; now, Bruce has put his long-time enthusiasm for this great game into a compelling narrative that's sure to be a hit among baseball fans.Bruce has always wondered what it would be like if Major League Baseball had switch pitchers – players who could pitch right-handed and left-handed – much like switch hitters.

Over a period of 8 months, Ronnie Shuker set out to play hockey in every province and territory in Canada. The resulting book is called "The Country and The Game: 30,000 Miles of Hockey Stories". It's less a chronicle of his quest for ice time, and more of a journal about the characters he encountered at arenas, motels, bars and mancaves across Canada for whom hockey is no mere game.
