My latest appearance (08-09) on TSN 1260 Radio (Edmonton) with hosts Tom Gazzola (@TomGazzola) and Wyatt Zeiger (@Whyitzeegrr) sitting in for Dave Jamieson.

We discussed the historic start to Bo Bichette’s career, the feeling around the Blue Jays clubhouse as the last vestiges of the Alex Anthopoulos regime were traded away, my candid thoughts on the recent Stroman-Sanchez-Biagini exorcism, the bizarre fallout from Igor Ozhiganov/Nikita Zaitsev’s involvement with the Maple Leafs, and why a Russian cultural bias tends to only exist in the minds of largely mediocre NHL players.

Be sure to check out Dave’s excellent show on TSN radio (weekdays at noon) and be mindful that he once put out a raging barbecue fire with nothing more than an old dish towel and a steely glance.

About The Author

Ari Shapiro

Ari Shapiro is a writer, podcaster, and publisher with over two decades of experience working for monolithic corporations before one day realizing that the value of pure human ingenuity and creative literary expression is worth far more than being a capitalist ronin prick who drives a nice BMW. He’s a dashing technologist by day and a cunning journalist by night running one of the last independent and underground media hubs featuring articles from a cadre of ruthlessly talented contributors. He also discovered J. R. R. Tolkien at ten years of age, King Crimson by twelve, and ran the city’s most popular bulletin board system at fifteen. Now mired in adulthood, he yearns to avoid mediocrity by inspiring others to use both hemispheres of the mind.
