From Omaha to Saskatoon ft. Cathy Overton-Clapham

With the Olympic trials underway in the U.S. and just around the corner in Canada, Kevin and Warren discuss who has emerged as the top contenders south of the border plus a breakdown of Sports Interaction's odds for the favourites and underdogs to wear the Maple Leaf at the Beijing Winter Games. 

Our Hot Rocks Topic takes aim at the Canadian Olympic trials process and what more can be done to prepare teams to take on the rest of the world and the guys don’t pull any punches with their assessment of the current system! Stick around for Storytime as Kevin shares the hilarious tale of how Don Walchuk acquired ice for their drinks during the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Games. 

Former world champion and five-time Scotties Tournament of Hearts winner Cathy Overton-Clapham is our guest this week to talk about transitioning to coaching, what it’s like working with Cory Christensen’s team, her thoughts on the new rules being tested at the world championships plus a bit of communication breakdown during her time as a super spare with Eve Muirhead’s team. 

This podcast is produced by Warren Hansen and Amil Delic, mixed by Andrew Holland, and hosted by Kevin Martin, Warren Hansen and Jim Jerome. Production and social support by Jonathan Brazeau.
