For new hockey fans, Spittin Chiclets is basically the Pat McAfee show for hockey. It’s not really my style but I do listen to a lot of their interviews, they often talk to retired players and get great stories out of them. Obligatory language warning: I don’t think there was swearing in the interview but if you listen to any other part of the podcast I’m sure there is.

I didn’t know much about Ryan Smith other than “rich Qualtrics guy, donates to BYU sports” before him owning an NHL team because I don’t care about the Jazz/NBA. But wow, I never ever ever thought I’d see Paul Bissonnette respectfully listen to a guy relate experiences from his LDS mission and BYU while saying things like “so freaking cool” without Biz even making any sex position jokes or soaking jokes. So props to Ryan Smith for achieving the impossible.

SpecialKC this is safe, RA apparently hasn’t been on the podcast yet this season and isn’t part of this interview. Hopefully that’s permanent.
