Milk Cartons, Benning's Big Day, and Jake feat....
<p>As always brought to you by the Dean Blundell Network. </p><p>The Canucks had a week and then some. Jake scored two goals, Benning ruined our lives, and I talked about Milk cartons (what?). We dove into the toxic situation the Canucks are in and if there is even a way out. </p><p>Joey dropped by from The Larschcast and gave us some great old Canucks references we won't soon forget.</p><p>Dudes and Guys by Players Choice was to the point this week and no one really yelled. Joey was cut off by Ryan because he tried to break the rules. Ryan likes rules apparently. </p><p>We're still giving away another set of MicroLab headphones as well as a bunch of Summerskate sandals.</p><p>Tune in, subscribe and let's get going!</p>

He knows hockey, probably better than most people you know.</p><p>We got into his love of the team, distaste for the reverse retro jerseys and his promise to help turn the Canucks around.</p><p>The MicroLab headphones were given away so listen in to find the winner and we also set up things to give away another pair of SummerSkates slides.</p><p>Aaron got down and dirty with us for Dudes and Guys presented by Players Choice Sportscards and he brought the heat!</p><p>He gave us the low down on what he was doing during COVID and when to expect new music. </p><p>A must listen, what a fun time!</p>
