Slap Shot

SEASON. 7. IS. HERE. Sound the siren, do the main ice intros, and queue the organ player to play something fancy. We start by celebrating one of the best endings to any sport, and what leads to arguably the best trophy in sports, the Stanley Cup Final! Hockey fan (and goon in his own right) Jamie is here with Captain of the Pod Spencer to discuss one of the most important and influential hockey movies (and sports movies in general) of all time: Slap shot! The Paul Newman/ Hanson brothers classic is over the top, strangely authentic, and is trying to say many messages about culture, but do they land as well as the punches thrown in the film? Give it a listen, and if anyone tries to talk to you while you are listening, just do your best Hanson brother impression and yell at them that you are trying to listen to the F'n pod.
