An unbelievable Brier has come to a close and Kevin and Warren share their thoughts on Team Gushue winning the championship while playing short-handed. The guys place their picks for the women’s worlds with Canada's Kerri Einarson looking like a favourite to win, plus they also analyze Jennifer Jones’s team splitting up at the end of the season and what’s next for them.
In our Hot Rocks Topic, Kevin and Warren weigh in on why teams should consider having an alternate on hand at all times.
Team Mouat all release the rock the same, should Canadian teams be doing the same? Kevin takes a crack at that in this week’s Mailbag segment. Email us your questions to insidecurling@gmail.com and you could win a free e-copy of Warren’s book Sticks and Stones if we answer your question on the show.
Kevin takes us back in Storytime when teammate Dan Petryk tried (and failed) to beat jet lag.
Team Gushue third Mark Nichols joins us during his final day of quarantine to discuss his Brier experience, falling ill with COVID-19 just before the playoffs, watching his team win short-handed, why they didn’t have an alternate player and what Curling Canada could do to ensure younger teams are provided opportunities to compete. Nichols also looks ahead to the men’s worlds with some familiar faces from the Beijing Winter Olympics in the field.
