(The Front Ender’s Union approves)   On an episode which discusses the final Grand Slam event of the season—The Masters—it’s another Masters championship that has the Girls’ attention.   That’s right … episode 8 of season 9 begins with yet another story of curling victory on the ice, this time for G2!   Mary takes us through her all-star squad’s victory while Lori tells us of her latest trials in the mixed doubles discipline.   Next up is the aforementioned Slam event, and all the various storylines—from Ross Whyte making the men’s final (and a reminder of his nude appearance in the Men Of Curling calendar) to Rachel Homan continuing to breathe fire, plus the finale of Italy’s remarkable Team Retornaz.   This week’s Hot Topic is fascinating as on-ice penalties are being considered for future three-player teams!    Next up is the 2G breakdown of Ben Hebert’s latest Sheet Show, and it was certainly memorable. That is immediately followed by Team Bottcher’s Christmas singalong, a World Junior B recap and word from the Nunavut playdowns.   Enjoy the episode, happy holidays and stay safe!
