Are the Caps good? And a conversation with the NHL History Girl

The Caps have lost three of their last four games, so Ian and I got together to ask the big questions. We also grapple with Tom Wilson’s new role and Brooks Laich’s new deal, which will hopefully get him off Instagram so much. Later, I have a great chat with Jen Conway, @NHLhistorygirl, about her project to bring Caps history to the masses in reward for good charitable work.

Podcast

Discussed in this episode:

• Tom Wilson promoted to first line
• Brooks Laich signs with the LA Kings
• Brooks Laich on masculinity

Can’t wait to get into this book – ‘The Mask of Masculinity’ by my good friend @lewishowes. The world needs this discussion more than ever, and it’s a call of action to all men. Give it a read and I’m happy to discuss it with you! Much love @lewishowes – you’re the man! #masculinity
