We're baaack againnnnnnn. Nick had to get ice cream last time, so he missed it. We got into a heated debate about which professional sport trophy would be hardest to win, why USA is the GOAT of Olympics, things that we'd ban forever in the beer league, and unveiled jerseys for the upcoming DEX. Happy almost birthday to Nick! Come skate with us: https://blpa.com/ Merch: https://beerleagueplayers.com/

We're baaaaaack! Nice to meet you again. We got innnnnnit about Japan - turns out there was almost as much drama as there was sake consumed. We solved a few life problems for people not knowing what to do with a broken-leg-on-the-ice situation and having to boot their captain from the team. Plus a few 2026 jersey theme ideas and hot takes. Thanks for being here!! Merch: https://beerleagueplayers.com/

Wondering if the chart bottoming goal of best lowest-rated podcast is going to come back to bite us. But we're going for it. And so was the chat today. We swear we had important things to say today but everyone else was funnier than we were. We talked why New Year's resolutions are dumb, why they're great, a quick game of either-or faceoff, and then had 4 random people join the podcast because they could.

SeE yOu NeXt YeArRrRr! After some professional yapping, we talked over/underrated hockey trends and events of 2025, a "What would you do?" scenario, and all the resolutions we'll give up in the first 4 days of 2026. You rock the modern world. Come skate with us: https://blpa.com/ Merch: https://beerleagueplayers.com/

We fiiiiinally narrow down Nick's new NHL team to cheer for, discuss our viral moments, and give a juicy update on the secret admirer. Things got a little craaaazayyy today but the chat was chirpin, the girls were girlin, and Nick was eating meat and cheese.

Alert alert 🚨 Nick has a secret admirer and it's NOT himself (allegedly). We got a mysterious email from a loyal lonely girl and while we're protecting the identity, we must get to the bottom of this. We also dive into Nick's new NHL team, get a guest on who designs hockey jerseys, and have some more guest hot takes. Thanks for being heeeeere!

On the last week of Nick's mustache chronicles...we got into a beer league hockey scuffle story with a twist you didn't see coming, shared mashed potato take, fixed some NHL logos (shout out Predators), and tell you how you can win free jerseys for your whole teammmmmm! U r the best. Brought to you by TheBrandGamewear.com Come skate with us: https://blpa.com/ Merch: https://beerleagueplayers.com/

They thought we were on gummies tonight. We were, but not the weeeeeeeed kind. And not the blue chew kind either (but maybe next week). We did poetry or noetry, discussed a new NHL team for Nick to support (and learned some crazy things about the Wild logo), shared some hockey facts that seem fake annnnnd unveiled some of the sweet DEX jerseys coming up. Good times were had by some. Come skate with us: https://blpa.com/ Merch: https://beerleagueplayers.com/

Professional yappers are back and they're yappin. All things Tahoe—we spilled some of the tournament tea—new guest hot takes, what you wish you knew sooner (it got kinda deep), a BLPA secret santa, and allllll of the upcoming DEX and Bash tournaments YOU should come to. Come skate with us: https://blpa.com/ Merch: https://beerleagueplayers.com/

Makin deals with the devil...aka what would you do to be able to make six figures playing hockey? Turns out Nick would do a lot. We fought jet lag, talked Halloween costumes, and got into sex hotels. Well, not literally into them. But you know. Or maybe you don't. Anyway we love you! Come skate with us: https://blpa.com/ Merch: https://beerleagueplayers.com/

Warning: we got kinda deep today?? Deep in octopussy balls, deep in the feels, deep in Japan talk...Nick gave us a live, real-time fake mukbang review of some of the killer food he's getting in Japan, we crack open "We're Not Really Strangers" and ask some vulnerable questions, and get some beer league frustrations off our chest. Come skate with us: https://blpa.com/ Merch: https://beerleagueplayers.com/

Things got weird. We were all Delilah vibes tonight and got lost in the intimacy of dim lights and close mics. Highs and lows from Lake Placid (including a near on-ice 💩 situation), what's happening in Japan, and a beer league rebus game that had the chat getting into it. Come skate with us: https://blpa.com/ Merch: https://beerleagueplayers.com/

We got into all things tournament recaps and upcoming DEXes, where Nick is flying with his millions of miles, and lots of chat activity today. We also chatted when it's time to move up (or down) a division and playing with longevity in mind. Find the last part of our BLPA *after dark* chat on Patreon!

This just in: a non hockey player put on hockey skates for the first time...AND GOT ON THE ICE. See the video before it goes viral worldwiiiiiiide (or something). Now Nick has to find something else to be a pest about! We also talked loooooong flight delays, gave some mouth hugs (Irish style), and shared some sweet/funny/drunken pictures and videos of the BLPA members' favorite on-ice flexes.

Nobody panic, it's just Nick's life dream happening in real time...3/5 hockey guy just became 3.5/5 hockey guy. It's almost danglin time! We went deep on some potential beer league mascots for different states, something we got wrong for a long time (or convinced our siblings was true but wasn't) , a historical pic of Nick that ended in 💩 jokes, and broke down highs and lows of THE Columbus BLPA tourney.
