Show Notes
Sports Broadcaster/Author/Podcaster John Shannon talks about 'Team Baby Blue'/Hockey Night in Canada [that themesong, those blazers!], who Dave Hodge telephoned FIRST immediately after his irreverent on-air ‘pen flip’ in 1987, separating Don Cherry ‘the person’ from ‘the performer,’ pivoting from behind the camera to in front of the camera, podcasting with his longtime sidekick Bob McCown, why he is a ‘radio-holic,’ the definitive answer as to whether the rest of Canada really hates the Toronto Maple Leafs [or not!], why ‘the period’ is his absolute favourite form of punctuation, the difference between a ‘work stoppage’ & a ‘lockout,’ and his agreement with the host that televising hockey games WITHOUT any announcers would be an absolutely brilliant idea!
John’s book Evolve or Die, Hard-Won Lessons from a Hockey Life is published by Simon & Schuster and is available at your preferred bookseller!
TORONTO LEGENDS is hosted by Andrew Applebaum at [email protected]
