Jann, Caitlin & Sarah are joined by Tracy & Martina (sketch duo and podcasters Justine Williamson and Greg Vardy), who discuss their movie 'Tracy & Martina: Goin' Out West'. Tracy and Martina are two fun-loving best friends from Cape Breton who head west to Alberta for the first time. They hope to make money opening for a local band, but things go south when their accommodations fall through and they run out of money. They share their experiences traveling to Alberta, the cultural differences they encountered, and the humour they found on the road. They also discuss their journey from YouTube creators to filmmakers, highlighting their experiences in Cape Breton and the unique culture of the region. They share insights on friendship, fame, and even how to save a little money at a festival! *We do not endorse getting kicked out of crabfest.* Tracy & Martina: Goin' Out West is part Fubar, part homage to the classic Goin' Down The Road, by Music video director Brendan Langelle Lyle (aka MooseCANFly) making his film debut. The feature was made last year while touring in Alberta and won the Audience Award for Best Narrative Feature at this year's CUFF (Calgary Underground Film Festival). Tracy & Martina: Goin' Out West will release on Crave starting September 1. https://www.tracyandmartina.com/ https://moviescout.ca/movies/403668?date=2026-06-05 (00:00) Introduction to Tracy & Martina (02:02) The Journey to Alberta: Expectations vs. Reality (05:00) Travel Experiences and Tips on the Road (08:58) Cultural Differences and Meeting New People (11:59) Reality Show Dreams and Personal Insights (15:00) Promoting the New Movie and Future Aspirations (15:05) The Journey to Filmmaking (19:20) Exploring Cape Breton's Unique Culture (21:01) Friendship and Fame (25:43) Live Shows and Audience Connection (29:23) Celebrity Aspirations and Musical Influences (29:59) Festival Shenanigans and Tips (33:01) Creative Ways to Sneak Alcohol (36:03) The Journey to Fame and Branding (38:55) Celebrating Connections and Future Plans #ASKJANN - want some life advice from Jann?

Montreal dropped a tough OT decision to Carolina as Andrei Svechnikov scored the winner for a 2-1 series lead, with Lane Hutson publicly taking responsibility for a giveaway that led to the OT goal. Rod Brind’Amour’s team-first mentality continues to define the Hurricanes and Martin St. Louis now faces the challenge of keeping the Canadiens focused on tightening up defensively — particularly clearing the zone and protecting the middle of the ice — rather than dwelling on one play. Out West, Vegas has stunned Colorado with a 3-0 series lead as injuries to Nathan MacKinnon, quiet performances from several Avs stars and stronger goaltending from the Golden Knights have tilted the series heavily. Mark Stone’s impactful return in game 3 arguably overshadowed the hype around Cale Makar’s comeback. Coaching chatter continues as John Tortorella’s future remains uncertain despite a potential championship run, with Ryan Craig viewed as Vegas’ eventual successor. Meanwhile in Colorado there’s growing speculation about sweeping organizational changes if the Avalanche are eliminated as early as tonight.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Knicks are headed to the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999 — and The Prophets are breaking down if this magical run is enough to finish the job against OKC or San Antonio. We dive into why New York suddenly looks built for June basketball, why Brunson has become the king of the Garden, and which Finals matchup gives them the better shot at a ring.Then we shift to Cleveland. What should the Cavs actually do after this obliteration? Harden out? Mobley? Spida? Out West, the Thunder vs Spurs series has become a war. We talk about how the media flipped on OKC after hyping them up for the last two years and who survives the war of attritionWe close with the All-NBA teams being revealed, what it means for the future of the league, and why there's no scenario where we're paying Jalen Duren big money.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/preach-kev-preach-w-rashad--2977392/support.
On this episode of the 4 Corners Podcast, Dave and Patrick take a look at the NHL and NBA Conference Finals. In the NHL, the Vegas Golden Knights had stormed to a commanding series lead over the Presidents' Trophy-winning Colorado Avalanche. Meanwhile, in the Eastern Conference, Montreal handed Carolina their first loss in the playoffs. Carolina bounced back in Game 2, as it looks like a long series might be brewing. The same cannot be said for the NBA's Eastern Conference Finals as the New York Knicks zeroed in on their first berth in the NBA Finals since 1999!. Out West, the Spurs and Thunder look locked in to battling it out in an epic Conference Finals with both teams trying to establish potential dynasties and legacies. This week's hosts...

On this episode of The Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Kevin Rafuse & Justin Cousart, Kevin is joined this week for a pair of podcast debuts from Andrew Fehr and Mason Switsky, as the guys join him for some conference finals talk. The Knicks storm back from a 22-point deficit to stun the Cavs in Game 1 of the ECF. Is the series already over now? Out West, the Spurs and Thunder are even after two games. Why a pair of injuries for the Spurs could loom large over the rest of the series and some early Wemby brilliance. Then, a quick detour into NBA all-time rankings and some love for Dirk Nowitzki. The guys then fire up the despair meter for the Pistons, Sixers, Lakers and Timberwolves after their eliminations in the second round. Is LeBron destined to leave LA? Mason argues why the Timberwolves have a Julius Randle problem and Andrew says the Pistons shouldn't be too upset despite the tough game 7 loss. Finally, some quick Premier League banter. Listen to the show wherever you get your podcasts and watch the show on Youtube!
Montreal stunned Carolina 6–2 in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Final, swarming the Hurricanes with four first-period goals and exposing signs of rust after Carolina’s 12-day layoff, as Rod Brind’Amour admitted his team wasn’t ready for the Canadiens’ pace, long stretch passes and relentless transition game. Cole Caufield’s quick response goal after Carolina scored 33 seconds in shifted momentum immediately, as the Canes aggressive play allowed Montreal to repeatedly generate breakaways. Carolina will need a bounce-back in Game 2, especially from Frederik Andersen and a Jacob Slavin, who struggled through a difficult night. Out West, Vegas opened with an upset win over Colorado thanks to a stellar performance from Carter Hart and the massive absence of injured Cale Makar, whose uncertain status now looms over the series. John Tortorella appears energized in his new role with Vegas after recognizing Philadelphia needed a different voice for its rebuild. Discussion then turns to the Maple Leafs’ coaching search, with the suggestion that Toronto should think beyond short-term fixes and consider talented but inexperienced candidates from the AHL and NHL assistant ranks.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Conference Finals are here and there's no shortage of storylines across the NHL. Brenden Escott and Kyle Bukauskas dive into the fallout from the Edmonton Oilers moving on from Kris Knoblauch, the growing speculation surrounding Bruce Cassidy and whether Vegas is playing hardball by blocking interview requests from Edmonton and Los Angeles. We also discuss why Knoblauch may not rush back into another NHL head coaching opportunity and what the next chapter could look like for him. Out West, we break down how the Vegas Golden Knights can slow down a heavily favoured Colorado Avalanche squad in a must-watch Western Conference Final. In the East, we examine what made the Montreal Canadiens-Buffalo Sabres series so razor-close and what to expect now that Montreal faces the relentless pressure of the Carolina Hurricanes. We also touch on coaching changes in Vancouver, where Manny Malhotra has emerged as the rumoured frontrunner following the departure of Adam Foote, plus a little road-trip flavour from Raleigh as playoff hockey takes over the city.

The Edmonton Stingers are 1-1 through the opening two weeks of the season, and Brenden Escott is joined by Stingers Assistant Adika Peter-McNeilly to break down what we've learned so far from this year's group. We discuss the early positives, the impact of new addition Dain Dainja after a dominant start to the year, and how the coaching staff approaches an immediate rematch with Vancouver Bandits in a back-to-back set. We also talk about the growing atmosphere at the Expo Centre—“The Hive”—and why it's quickly becoming one of the most entertaining environments in the city. From there, we shift to the NBA Conference Finals. Out West, it's San Antonio Spurs versus Oklahoma City Thunder, and we dive into the incredible rise of Victor Wembanyama after his jaw-dropping 40-point, 20-rebound performance. In the East, we look at whether the New York Knicks have what it takes to upset the Cleveland Cavaliers and punch their ticket to the NBA Finals, including what their stunning Game 1 comeback revealed about the resilience and belief inside that locker room.

The Vancouver Canucks cleaned house by firing Adam Foote and the entire coaching staff just days after naming Ryan Johnson GM, continuing a full organizational reset despite the costly decision to eat two years remaining on the coaches’ contracts. Attention now turns to Manny Malhotra as a possible head coach candidate, creating a potentially awkward wrinkle with his son Caleb viewed as a realistic option for Vancouver at third overall in the draft. Elsewhere, the NHL coaching carousel continues in Toronto, Los Angeles and Edmonton, where the Oilers remain interested in Bruce Cassidy while also initiating talks with Craig Berube. Montreal eliminated Buffalo in Game 7 overtime behind strong goaltending from Jakub Dobes, while some of Buffalo’s top players — including Alex Tuch — failed to deliver in key moments and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen was questioned for allowing the OT winner by Alex Newhook. Carolina now enters the Eastern Conference Final after a 12-day layoff that could initially create some rust, though the rest should benefit Frederik Andersen most. The Hurricanes’ depth advantage over a tired, short-benched Montreal squad appears to be significant. Out West, Vegas heads into the Western Conference Final against Colorado with injury concerns surrounding Mark Stone, and even if he returns, the Avalanche are viewed by most as the deeper and more complete team.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode of The Timeout with Dwyane Wade, Dwyane and Bob welcome Udonis Haslem to break down the playoffs. UD comes in with two stories that say everything about his championship mindset, playing through a broken finger in 2012 and snatching Jeremy Lin’s shoe out of Dwyane’s hand mid-game because he was “seeing red.” On the East, they focus on how Cleveland will try to wear down Jalen Brunson, the paint battle between Mobley, Allen, KAT, and Mitchell Robinson, and give Donovan Mitchell his flowers for bouncing back in Game 7. Out West, Dwyane says Wembanyama has no weaknesses on either end while UD breaks down why OKC’s trio of Holmgren, Jaylin Williams, and Hartenstein are built to handle him. They also debate Anthony Edwards walking off with eight minutes left and praise SGA’s back to back MVPs. Music Credit: Khari Mateen.

In this Timeout, Dwyane and Bob break down the playoffs with a focus on chemistry, coaching, and experience. Dwyane praises the Knicks’ defensive connectivity, compares Thibodeau’s impact to Pat Riley returning to Miami to bring discipline to a roster of “grown man knuckleheads,” and previews a physical Knicks and Pistons matchup. Out West, he breaks down why the injured Timberwolves have to lean on grit against a deep but inexperienced Spurs team, calls out Wembanyama going through the physical growing pains of playoff basketball, and shares advice he gave Anthony Edwards directly, stop getting caught on the sideline and bring the physicality on your drives. Dwyane also talks about his role in the Utah Jazz governing group, excited about the number two pick and building the right culture around Keyonte George and Lauri Markkanen, and closes by telling impatient Heat fans to trust the front office to get Bam the help he needs.

The Montreal Canadiens responded after an early Buffalo goal in Game 3, dominating much of the night with their speed and depth as Alex Newhook scored twice and the Habs’ centres continued to outplay the Sabres down the middle. Buffalo struggled defensively, Alex Lyon was repeatedly left exposed, and tensions boiled over following a collision between Beck Malenstyn and goalie Jakob Dobes that sparked a discussion about whether post-whistle penalties should carry over into the next playoff game. Meanwhile, Carolina completed a sweep of Philadelphia with an OT win in Game 4, continuing a dominant postseason run built on elite team defence, strong health and a resurgence from Taylor Hall, though a lengthy layoff before Round 3 could become a concern. Despite the sweep, the Flyers took a major step forward this season under Rick Tocchet, though more roster additions are still needed before relying heavily on young prospects like Porter Martone and Alex Bump. Out West, Anaheim evened its series with Vegas at 2-2 after a 4-3 win powered by Cutter Gauthier’s three assists, continuing an impressive playoff showing from a young Ducks team that is quickly learning it can compete and win at this level. Mitch Marner’s three-point night gave him the playoff scoring lead and his overall play has prompted praise from John Tortorella regarding lingering Toronto narratives around his game. The Wild also pushed back against Colorado with a huge Game 3 win to keep their series alive, setting up a critical Game 4 as Colorado considers whether to stick with Scott Wedgewood or turn to Mackenzie Blackwood after an uneven outing.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On this episode of The Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose) and Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir), the guys start the show by previewing the NBA draft lottery. Which teams could jump up and which teams could instantly make some noise with a higher pick? Then, the guys look back at the teams eliminated so far in the first round of the NBA playoffs and rate their level of despair. It comes as the Magic fire Jamahl Mosley as head coach following their 3-1 collapse to the Pistons. Are they at the top of the despair meter? Then, a look at the second round series. The Sixers are getting smoked by the Knicks, while the Pistons have continued their positive momentum from the first round. Out West, the Thunder look like champs while the Spurs bounce back after a game one letdown. Are these series largely over? Finally, the guys bounce back in another round of Immaculate Grid. Listen to the show wherever you get your podcasts and watch the show on YouTube!
The Toronto Maple Leafs shocked the hockey world by winning the NHL Draft Lottery despite fairly long odds, leaving fans in Vancouver and Calgary frustrated as another Canadian team leapfrogged them to secure the top pick. This development may put added focus on Auston Matthews and his future as newly minted GM John Chayka now has even more to consider in an already busy offseason. In the playoffs, the Montreal Canadiens prepare for Game 2 against the Buffalo Sabres after a shaky opener where Lane Hutson struggled early, but Ivan Demidov impressed and Zach Benson continued to be a major agitator for Buffalo. Elsewhere, the Carolina Hurricanes moved within one win of eliminating the Philadelphia Flyers thanks to a dominant, aggressive PK and another strong outing from Frederik Andersen. Out West, the Anaheim Ducks earned a road split against the Vegas Golden Knights with their speed becoming a major factor heading home for Game 3, while the Colorado Avalanche stayed unbeaten with a 2-0 series lead over the Minnesota Wild as Nathan MacKinnon appears to be taking over the series after back-to-back three-point performances.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On this episode of The Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose) and Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir), the guys start the show by discussing the first round out East, where three series are headed to game 7's. First, the Knicks who punched their ticket to the second round. How they turned their series around against the Hawks. Then, can the Sixers change their history against the Celtics? Can the Magic get off the mat after a massive second half collapse in game 6? The Raptors have forced a game 7 after RJ Barrett's insane game winner. Is this Cavs group due for another collapse?

The Philadelphia Flyers closed out the Pittsburgh Penguins in Game 6 OT, capping a surprisingly solid “bridge year” for Pittsburgh’s aging core, with Evgeni Malkin expressing interest in returning at 40 and Sidney Crosby and Kris Letang also expected back. Philly, meanwhile, nearly let a 3–0 series slip but got a great performance from goalie Dan Vladar leading to Cam York’s eventual winner, though a tough matchup with the Carolina Hurricanes awaits. The Montreal Canadiens moved within one win of eliminating the Tampa Bay Lightning thanks to Alex Texier’s Game 5 winner and stellar goaltending from Jakub Dobes, while Brendan Gallagher made an immediate impact in his playoff debut, setting up a raucous Game 6 at the Bell Centre. Out West, Brett Howden scored a shorthanded double-OT winner to give the Vegas Golden Knights a 3–2 edge over Utah in a series where goaltending has been uncertain at best, and at times, chaotic. The Edmonton Oilers face elimination on the road against the Anaheim Ducks in Game 6, needing early pressure on Dostal, but also the consistency they’ve lacked all season. The Minnesota Wild have an opportunity at home to eliminate the Dallas Stars behind Jesper Wallstedt and their heavy-minute defenders, who are proving to be a difficult matchup.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
David Pastrnak plays hero in overtime as the Boston Bruins stay alive, while the Edmonton Oilers respond at home to keep their series alive. With several massive Game 5 matchups across the NHL Playoffs, pressure is building — and momentum is everything.We break down Connor McDavid's heavy workload after logging 24 minutes, whether that usage is sustainable, and how the Oilers managed to limit the Anaheim Ducks to just one goal — despite their dangerous power play.Out West, the Minnesota Wild steal home-ice advantage and head home with a chance to close out the Dallas Stars. Is Jake Oettinger starting to show cracks, or are defensive breakdowns leaving him exposed? And can Dallas find a way to force Game 7?We also dive into the critical Game 5 matchups between Tampa Bay and Montreal, plus Utah and Vegas — and discuss just how important home-ice advantage really is at this stage of the playoffs.
The Carolina Hurricanes, Colorado Avalanche and Philadelphia Flyers are all on the verge of first-round sweeps, while pressure continues to mount across the rest of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.We start in Carolina, where the Ottawa Senators delivered a flat performance and their power play failed to deliver in a critical moment. How concerning has Brady Tkachuk's quiet start been, and should the league look at the Taylor Hall hit on Jake Sanderson?Out West, the Los Angeles Kings managed to limit Nathan MacKinnon, but it still wasn't enough against the depth of the Colorado Avalanche. Is this simply a mismatch?McDavid has zero points in two games but how long with this slump last?
Three first-round series are all square after a chaotic night in the NHL. The Tampa Bay Lightning finally snap their overtime skid thanks to a winner from JJ Moser, but not before tensions boil over in a penalty-filled clash with the Montreal Canadiens. Was Scott Sabourin's hit intentional, and did the Bolts lose focus in the chaos?Out West, Logan Cooley showcases his speed as he lifts the Mammoth past the Vegas Golden Knights, while Boston Bruins winger Viktor Arvidsson pots a pair to even their series heading back to Boston. Meanwhile, questions surround the Buffalo Sabres shot selection against Jeremy Swayman—is perimeter play holding them back?We break down the keys to victory for the Anaheim Ducks and Edmonton Oilers ahead of tonight's action.In “The Film Room,” Steve Peters dives into Dallas vs. Minnesota and Pittsburgh vs. Philadelphia, plus we revisit the debate: was Charlie McAvoy's hip check a trip?All that, plus betting angles, fan chaos, and more in Garbage Time.

The Washington Capitals kept their playoff hopes alive with a win over Pittsburgh on Sunday, earning the nickname “Cockroach Caps” (coined by Brandon Duhaime) for their refusal to fade despite selling at the deadline. With young talent emerging, the Caps appear capable of retooling on the fly. The game marked the 100th and perhaps final time, Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin went head-to-head, a subplot that added emotional weight to what feels like a quiet farewell tour for a true legend of the game. Meanwhile, the Ottawa Senators clinched a playoff spot but slipped into the second wildcard after an OT loss to the New Jersey Devils, though they remain a dangerous matchup thanks to strong defensive structure and a red-hot Linus Ullmark. Out West, the Los Angeles Kings have surged with four straight wins, holding a wildcard spot with games in hand and a favourable schedule against non-playoff teams.

Major policy shifts could reshape hunting access, seasons, and opportunity across multiple states. After a long four-year legal battle, a federal court has overturned California's youth firearm marketing law, marking a significant victory for youth sportsmen recruitment and Second Amendment rights. California's sportsmen and women are a cornerstone of conservation funding through the American System of Conservation Funding (ASCF). Laws that restrict youth engagement not only infringe on constitutional rights but also threaten the future of wildlife conservation Massachusetts is closer than ever to lifting its long-standing Sunday hunting ban, a move that could immediately double opportunity for working-class hunters. At the same time, proposed reductions to hunting setbacks could unlock new parcels of land, opening doors for more accessible deer hunting and archery seasons. In the Southeast, Tennessee is advancing legislation that would standardize hunting regulations statewide, cutting through confusing local restrictions that often trip up hunters in the field. Out West and in the Midwest, discussions around suppressor legislation, public land use, and wildlife funding continue to shape how sportsmen engage with the outdoors. Meanwhile, debates in places like Rhode Island highlight a growing divide over active forest management and its role in maintaining healthy wildlife habitat for game species. This conversation breaks down what these policy changes actually mean on the ground, giving hunters and anglers a clearer picture of how legislation directly impacts access, opportunity, and conservation outcomes across the country.

The 2026 MLB season has arrived, and this episode of TableSetters takes a comprehensive look at the postseason landscape and the performances most likely to define it. From roster construction to organizational philosophy, we examine how contenders are built to navigate the six-month grind and position themselves for October. The starting point is clear. The Dodgers enter the season not simply as a favorite, but as the structural benchmark for the sport. Their roster is layered with impact at every level. The lineup blends power, discipline, and depth, while the pitching staff reflects both top-end talent and organizational stability. This is a team designed to withstand the natural variance of a long season and still arrive in October with multiple ways to win. The question is not whether they will contend, but whether anyone can match their completeness when the margins tighten. From there, the focus expands across the league. Each division presents a different competitive dynamic that shapes the path to October. In the American League East, the conversation centers on ceiling versus sustainability. The Yankees bring one of the highest ceilings in the sport, though early pitching questions loom. Baltimore continues to emerge as a legitimate long-term contender, driven by a young, dynamic core. Toronto offers balance, but depth remains a variable. Boston's shift toward pitching and defense raises its floor, while Tampa Bay continues to maximize its roster and remain firmly in the mix. In the National League East, the Phillies hold a slight edge based on continuity and postseason experience, but both the Mets and Braves have clear pathways to take control of the division. The Central divisions remain fluid in both leagues, where internal development, health, and in-season adjustments are likely to determine outcomes more than preseason projections. Out West, the Dodgers stand apart, though teams like Arizona and San Francisco are positioned to capitalize if opportunities emerge. The postseason format continues to reward structure and adaptability. Securing a bye has become increasingly valuable, while the Wild Card round introduces volatility that can quickly reshape expectations. Each season produces at least one team that redefines its trajectory, whether through a bold deadline approach or a late surge that carries into October. Projecting a World Series matchup at this stage is less about certainty and more about identifying profiles. The National League runs through Los Angeles on paper, but the field behind them is capable of closing that gap. In the American League, the margin between contenders is thinner, with several teams possessing viable paths depending on health, depth, and in-season evolution. The eventual matchup is likely to reflect not just talent, but which organization best adapts over the course of the year. The award races follow a similar pattern. The MVP conversation should be driven by impact and consistency within competitive lineups. The Cy Young race will test both dominance and durability across a deep pool of arms. The Rookie of the Year field reflects the growing influence of young talent, where immediate contributions can shift both team outlooks and long-term expectations. This episode brings these elements together into a cohesive framework, examining how teams are constructed, how they evolve, and how those decisions translate over 162 games into postseason viability. The Dodgers set the standard entering 2026. The season will determine who can match it.

Draymond Green just made one of the boldest claims in NBA history.On this episode of the Alley Oop Basketball Show, Juju and Trysta react to Draymond saying he might be the best thing to ever happen to the Golden State Warriors franchise. Is it confidence… or a wild humble brag?Then the crew dives into Jayson Tatum's return for the Boston Celtics. With their superstar back on the court, do the Celtics have a real shot to dominate the East again? Meanwhile, the New York Knicks continue to look unsteady, raising questions about whether they're actually contenders — or just another mid-season roller coaster.Out West, the Los Angeles Lakers are trying to survive without LeBron James. Can the team hold things together while LeBron sits, or will the standings start slipping? And finally, Juju and Trysta react to a viral Machine Gun Kelly clip that has the internet completely confused.

A title race without a true favorite changes everything. We dive into why Boston keeps stacking wins with Jalen Brown as a full-fledged primary scorer, how Derek White's defense and decision-making glue the roster together, and what Nikola Vucevic adds to the offense with stretch-five spacing and hard screens. Then we tackle the hardest question of the spring: when should Jason Tatum actually return? Five-on-five scrimmages hint at clearance, but playoff readiness demands rhythm, timing, and the right minutes plan. We weigh the risk, the reward, and what a measured ramp could mean for seeding and series matchups.The conversation widens to a league defined by parity. Cleveland's gamble on pure offense with Donovan Mitchell and James Harden could overwhelm half-court defenses—if Harden settles into a No. 3 role when it matters. Out West, the paths to June feel crowded: Jokic's inevitability in Denver, Minnesota's two-way ceiling with Ant at the controls, OKC's readiness to punch above their years, and a Spurs surge powered by a Wembanyama learning curve that feels more like a leap. This is a postseason where health, lineup versatility, and scheme discipline might trump star names alone.We also spotlight the quiet shift of eras. Shai, Luka, Wemby, Brunson, and Maxey aren't waiting for invitations; they're shouldering crunch time and reshaping how teams defend space. The best news? Less superteam gravity, more organic rivalries. For Boston, that means leaning into pace, five-out spacing, and a defense that can win ugly in May.

From classrooms to statehouses, the future of hunting access is being decided right now. State legislatures are moving fast, and the decisions being made right now will shape hunting and fishing access for decades. This nationwide conservation roundup breaks down the most important policy fights affecting sportsmen and women, from the Southeast to the Great Plains. The conversation opens with Tennessee's push to expand hunter education opportunities by allowing schools to offer voluntary hunter safety courses for grades five through twelve. The discussion explores why early exposure to hunting ethics, firearms safety, and wildlife management matters, and how similar efforts have already gained bipartisan support in states like Georgia and Michigan. Out West, attention turns to Wyoming, where proposed legislation could affect transferable landowner tags, the use of tracking dogs for wounded game, and funding structures for state fish and wildlife agencies. These policies directly influence elk hunting access, fair-chase recovery practices, and long-term conservation funding. In the Northeast, Massachusetts presents a major opportunity with potential Sunday hunting rollbacks and expanded crossbow inclusion during archery season. The stakes are high for whitetail deer management, Lyme disease concerns, and giving working families more time afield. The roundup closes in the Midwest, covering Kansas efforts to reimburse wildlife agencies for discounted licenses and an Iowa proposal aimed at increasing political participation among hunters and anglers through voter registration. For anyone who hunts, fishes, or cares about protecting outdoor traditions, this episode connects policy to real-world impact and explains why showing up at the state level has never mattered more.

Allen covers forecasts for 46 GW of new US wind capacity by 2029, driven by data centers and reshoring. Plus Equinor’s Empire Wind project stays on track for late 2026, RWE gets approval for the Five Estuaries offshore wind farm in the UK, and a Scottish startup raises funding for modular multi-rotor turbines.

There is an old saying about the wind. You cannot see it. You cannot hold it. But you can harness it. And right now, people around the world are doing exactly that. After years of sluggish growth, American wind power is waking up. Wood Mackenzie reports the United States will add more than seven gigawatts of new wind capacity in 2025. That is a thirty-six percent jump from this year. And by 2029? Forty-six gigawatts of new capacity coming online. Why now? Because after a decade of flat electricity demand, America is hungry for power again. Data centers. Electric vehicles. Factories returning home. Demand is growing three percent annually now, up from less than one percent before. Out West, they are leading the charge. Wyoming. New Mexico. Colorado. Pattern Energy’s three-point-five gigawatt SunZia project in New Mexico alone will make them the top wind installer in 2026. And Invenergy’s Towner Energy Center in Colorado? Nine hundred ninety-eight megawatts. The single largest project expected to come online in 2027. But here is where it gets interesting. Off the coast of Long Island, a different kind of story is unfolding. The Empire Wind project. Eight hundred ten megawatts of offshore wind power. Enough to power half a million homes in Brooklyn. Norwegian energy giant Equinor is building it. And despite the political headwinds blowing against offshore wind, New York is standing firm. First electricity expected by late 2026. Across the Atlantic, Britain just gave the green light to something bigger. The Five Estuaries offshore wind farm. Seventy-nine turbines off the coast of Suffolk and Essex. At least twenty-three miles from shore. German energy company RWE is building it. When complete, it will power one million British homes. One million. Meanwhile, Europe is putting its money where the wind blows. Austria’s Erste Group just signed a two hundred million euro deal with the European Investment Bank. Part of an eight billion euro program to strengthen European wind turbine manufacturers. As Karl Nehammer, the bank’s vice president, put it: Europe is serious about keeping wind manufacturing jobs at home. Now… You might think wind power is all about going big. Massive offshore farms. Turbines taller than skyscrapers. But in Stirling, Scotland, three entrepreneurs have a different idea. Adam Harris. Paul Pirrie. Peter Taylor. They founded a company called Myriad Wind Energy Systems. Their invention? Small modular wind turbines. Multiple rotors mounted in a framework. No cranes needed. No special roads. Install them on a farm. On a factory. On a remote site where traditional turbines could never go. This week, they secured eight hundred sixty-five thousand pounds in seed funding. Led by Tricapital Angels. Their first prototype? A fifty-kilowatt unit scheduled for 2026. From Wyoming to New York. From Essex to Austria. From the North Sea to the Scottish Highlands. Wind energy is not waiting for permission. It is happening. Forty-six gigawatts in America alone by decade’s end. Billions of euros flowing in Europe. Innovators in Scotland proving that sometimes, smaller is smarter. You cannot see the wind. But you can see what it is building. That’s the wind industry news for the 22nd of December 2025. Happy Holidays folks, wherever you may be.

The Penguins dominated Toronto for 40 minutes before collapsing in the third, as the Leafs flipped the script despite continuing to look out of sorts. Even Craig Berube is flummoxed as to why his team can’t piece together 60 good minutes. In St. Louis, the Blues edged the Oilers late, overshadowing Connor McDavid becoming the 4th-fastest player ever to reach 1,100 points - though he didn’t record a shot on goal, a concerning trend for a player of his caliber on a roster that still feels a forward short. Winnipeg about to get a major boost with Adam Lowry’s return from hip surgery, the Jets have jumped out to another strong start, even after losing Ehlers and their captain on the shelf. Jonathan Toews’ faceoff dominance and unexpected scoring touch have also been revelations. Out West, the Kraken and Ducks are a surprising sight atop the Pacific division, with Seattle unbeaten at home and Anaheim’s young, fast core surging ahead of schedule. Meanwhile, Pierre-Luc Dubois’ serious injury leaves Washington in a bind: last season’s magic isn’t repeating, and the Caps may need to dip into their prospect pool to find a 2nd-line centre... if one is even available.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Send us a textIf you love bold calls and smarter hoops talk, pull up a chair. We're breaking down the 2025–26 NBA season with a roundtable that isn't afraid to challenge the consensus: international stars versus U.S. headliners, why culture may beat hype this year, and how one coaching switch could redefine the Knicks' identity. We get specific on who gains ground in the East, which West team can actually threaten OKC, and whether Denver's quiet roster shifts leave Jokic carrying too much on his own.We start with the talent map, acknowledging a global top tier—Jokic, Giannis, Luka, SGA—while making the case for American stars who still change series: Edwards, Tatum, Mitchell, Brunson, and a rising Mobley. Then we tackle New York's pivot from Tom Thibodeau to Mike Brown, exploring how more ball movement, heavy pick-and-roll, and better corner shooting could unlock a top-three seed, even if the defense dips. Across the East, the Cavs' continuity earns real trust, Miami's culture lurks, and Boston's ceiling hangs on Tatum's timeline. Expect razor-thin margins, ugly wins, and one play-in result that jolts a narrative.Out West, we lay out the case for OKC's depth and versatility while flirting with Houston as the chaos team nobody wants in a seven-game series. The biggest potential letdown? Denver if injuries and rotation losses stack up, even with a transcendent Jokic. We go deep on MVP odds—Jokic's inevitability, SGA's two-way engine, Wembanyama's leap if San Antonio wins enough, Luka's best-case scenario with a stronger supporting cast—and we crown the coaches still setting the standard: Erik Spoelstra's relentless culture and Steve Kerr's adaptable offense.The fireworks arrive when we ask if LeBron is helping or hurting his legacy by staying this long. Stats say he's still elite; narratives say endings matter. The truth, as always, lives in the details—and in the way his presence still reshapes every matchup.

In June, Utah Governor Spencer Cox became Chair of the Western Governors' Association. His Chair Initiative, Energy Superabundance: Unlocking Prosperity in the West, will explore how states can expand energy production, transmission, and storage to meet rising demand and achieve true energy abundance across the region. In this episode of Out West, WGA Executive Director Jack Waldorf sits down with Governor Cox to talk about the inspiration and vision behind his new initiative. You'll also hear from WGA Policy Advisor Abby Pelsmaeker, who spoke with Emy Lesofski, Director of the Utah Office of Energy Development, to learn more about Utah's approach to energy innovation—and how it can help seize the opportunities shaping our nation's energy future. Finally, you'll hear from John Wagner, the Laboratory Director at the Idaho National Laboratory, who spoke at the first Energy Superabundance workshop about the unique factors driving today's nuclear resurgence—one he says is unlike anything he's seen in his 30-year career. Finally, WGA would like to thank our initiative partners: Advanced Energy United; American Clean Power; Amazon Web Services; ClearPath; Deloitte; Idaho National Laboratory; Iron Workers International; JP Morgan Chase; National Hydropower Association; NextEra Energy; Nuclear Energy Institute; The Pew Charitable Trusts; Southwest Power Pool, and Williams Companies.
Welcome to Episode 107 of Tablesetters! The MLB postseason has finally arrived, and we are diving deep into all four Wild Card matchups, exploring the stakes, storylines, and keys that could determine who advances. We begin in the Bronx with Yankees against Red Sox, a rivalry that has defined October baseball for decades. These two have met six times in the postseason since 1999, and Boston has claimed victory in the last three. This time New York counters with Max Fried, Carlos Rodón, and the most powerful lineup in the game. The question is whether Boston's bullpen and the brilliance of Garrett Crochet can once again swing the balance in their favor. Next comes Padres against Cubs, their first postseason encounter since 1984. San Diego brings elite strikeout arms and perhaps the strongest bullpen in baseball, while Chicago leans on depth, defense, and the unshakable energy of Wrigley Field. This series could turn entirely on who controls the late innings. In the Central, it is Guardians against Tigers, a matchup that feels transformed from their earlier meetings. Cleveland enters October riding one of the hottest Septembers in recent memory, while Detroit boasts the ace of the year in Tarik Skubal. It is a contest between momentum and sustained excellence. Out West we find the underdog story: Reds against Dodgers. The defending champions return armed with Ohtani, Betts, and Freeman, but Cincinnati has a blueprint of its own with Hunter Greene's overpowering fastball and Terry Francona's postseason expertise. The real question is whether the Reds can strike early and rewrite the script. Throughout the episode we cover what truly decides these short series: rotation matchups, bullpen sequencing, defensive sharpness, and the single swing that can turn a season. October baseball is defined by chaos, and the Wild Card round is the first spark. Follow us on Instagram and X @tablesetterspod, subscribe to the show, and share with your baseball circle. The road to the World Series begins now.
Just as easterners imagined the American West, westerners imagined the American East, reshaping American culture. Back East: How Westerners Invented a Region (University of Washington Press, 2025) by Dr. Flannery Burke flips the script of American regional narratives.In novels, travel narratives, popular histories, and dude ranch brochures, twentieth-century western US writers saw the East through the lens of their experiences and ambitions. Farmers following the railroad saw capitalists exploiting their labor, while cowboys viewed urban easterners as soft and effete. Westerners of different racial backgrounds, including African Americans and Asian Americans, projected their hopes and critiques onto an East that embodied urbanity, power, and opportunity.This interplay between “Out West” and “Back East” influenced income inequality, land use, cultural identities, and national government. It fueled myths that reshaped public lands, higher education, and the publishing industry. The cultural exchange was not one-sided; it contributed to modern social sciences and amplified marginalized voices from Chicane poets to Native artists.By examining how westerners imagined the American East, Back East provides a fresh perspective on the American cultural landscape, offering a deeper understanding of the myths that continue to shape it. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

The Mayor of Salisbury Maryland has decided to paint over the city's Rainbow Crosswalks to “maintain neutrality in public spaces.” The Rainbow crosswalks have been part of the city landscape since 2018. Out West, the city leadership in Salt Lake City and Boise have come up with creative work arounds to defy their state legislature's ban on the Pride and other “special interest” flags. Finally, a road rage incident in the Philly suburbs goes viral when one of the drivers gets out of her car and poops on the hood of the other car. The “Rage Pooper” is also an OnlyFans Foot Fetish model.
