We're back! And maybe someday even on a consistent and regular basis! We're so damn enigmatic but hopefully when we do show up, we do bring our best. Today's podcast, while old, still holds up on the topics that we discussed which are (in no particular order so drumroll please): How hard it is to take Dion Phaneuf seriously with his funny voice. That one hit a little close to home The Leafs motto and the Raptors Talking about Jonathan Bernier and James Reimer Carlyle's brilliant coaching...

Things mf37 would be happy to talk about: Carlysle and TOI Cox as Burke's mouthpiece - trading of kessel, Halak, draft plans (he tweeted about the draft today) We always s**t on the media - who do we actually like to read? Ask Forbes what the music is.

In this week's PPP Podcast we tried really hard to be positive. Naturally that involved not talking about the Leafs. Tune in for: Chemmy reads Laffy Taffy jokes The gang groans audibly The team gives up on the podcast and answers questions on twitter Music: Jimmy Cliff, Wonderful World Beautiful People Magnetic Fields, Crazy for you but not that crazy The Shins, We Will Become Silhouettes The Silver Jews, Slow Education

It's PPPPodcast 18 where Chemmy, PPP, and I discuss: Trashing the Leafs playoff hopes Burke, goalies and the future Flux Capacitors* Luke Schenn's contract You can listen here (Chemmy will post to iTunes later). Music: Everyday People, Sly and the Family Stone Life is a Lemon and I Want My Money Back , Meatloaf If She Wants Me, Belle & Sebastian *If you had a Delorean, a flux capacitor and enough plutonium to get you November 29, 2008, what single move of Burke's would you fix? What...

We're trying really hard to do this weekly, so to facilitate that we're shortening the podcast. We're trying to do about 20-25 minutes of interesting fresh content so that you can mainline it. Bet you didn't think you'd see another one of these so soon, eh? Our topics? What difference will Randy Carlyle make? Has Don Cherry finally lost it? Do you believe a word Burke says?

Podcast episode 16 is alive just in time for Ron Wilson to get fired! We talked about canning him in the podcast and at the time (two weeks ago...) I still felt like Wilson didn't have a lot of talent around him. Two weeks and no points later I think I'm ok with him getting the boot. Look at our topics 1. Ron Wilson's job 2. This cold streak 3. Trade targets 4. Tim Connolly 5. The possible meltdown if the Leafs miss the playoffs. Possible meltdown? Ah to go back in time two weeks.

Kaberle wins a Cup! Tim Connolly, Cody Franson and John-Michael Liles arrive! Vancouver loses! NO MORE LEBDA

This is the sixth installment of the Pension Plan Puppets podcast. PPP is a Toronto Maple Leafs blog dedicated to amusing even non-Leafs fans. In this edition be sure to check out: - The Origins of "Throw the Snake" - A reading of Billo's email live - Brian Burke's end of the year press conference - Playoffs discussion The episode was cut short when the DET-PHX game 2 got crazy, so enjoy!

Our predictions for Saturday night's Montreal game, talk about prospect Nazem Kadri, make a McDonald's joke and look at the Leafs' strong post Olympic break play.

This week's podcast is late and it's all my dog's fault. In this episode we talk about who the Leafs' next whipping boy will be, the notion of players fitting in or not re: Lee Stempniak, Tomas Kaberle, the NHL's ratings on NBC after the Olympics and more!

Pension Plan Puppets Podcast Episode 1: In the Beginning There Was Poor Editing The PPP Podcast is a Toronto Maple Leafs podcast with your hosts Jason, Julian and Michael. Episode one covers corporate clients at the ACC, the Leafs' recent play and more.

In this episode of our moderately well received podcast I tried to let PPP and MF37 talk more. They didn't disappoint and offered up plenty of awkward silences. This week we cover: * Being classy and drinking cocktails instead of beer while podcasting. * Bringing in NCAA free agents. * What Keith Acton does to keep his job. * Additional snappy banter free of charge.

It's here! It's fresh off the editing table! It's a podcast! This week we talk about our first trip to an NHL game (spoiler: two visits to Maple Leaf Gardens and one somewhere else), we talk about third line players and what they should contribute and also the Leafs dumping the Habs on Saturday night.

Should Burke make a run at Kovalchuk? What players should you draft with an empty cupboard? Why didn't Roenick punch Mike Milbury? Those topics and more are yours free in the PPP Podcast Podcast Podcast!

In this week's episode of our critically acclaimed* Leafs' podcast we discuss: 1. Moneyball and improbable cup runs 2. Teams with cheap goaltending 3. Jonas Gustavsson at the world championships 4. Why mc79 should probably run the Oilers * no

We talk about: * The Kris Versteeg acquisition * The Colby Armstrong signing * Rumors of Zherdev and why we hate goal scorers * 2012 cap space * Keith Sweatt's chicken mcnuggets song * Nikolai Kulemin and John Mitchell's RFA contracts * No Brett Lebda We hope you guys like the podcast because we'll be doing it whether you do or not. Is there anything we should cover that we aren't covering? Is there anything you'd like to see on the podcast? Let us know what you...

We are back with more aural goodness! Ryan (puckurgently/@ryantologist) did a spectacular job on the audio since MF37 and our special guest had the world's worst connections. We crammed so much hockey talk into 23 minutes that we couldn't even fit a cold open. We talked about how much we are just enjoying the Leafs' run, James Reimer's legitimateness, the reasons for Phil Kessel's resurgence, Ron Wilson's job as a coach, the Leafs' playoffs chances, the Tomas Kaberle trade, and, of course,...

Yes it's PPP Podcast 13, our first episode since October, 2010. This was actually recorded on Thursday January 6th so we're offering it to you at a deep discount in case some of the contents might have gone a bit stale. Be sure to vote for who is the best (not worst?) Leaf. Contents after the jump... Star-divide In episode 13, Chemmy, PPP and I discuss: Reimer, Gustavsson and what to do with the goalies (very timely, no?) Colby Armstrong and the Heavy Lifter Index - can he get better?...

This was recorded before the Leafs looked rather crummy on Saturday night but a podcast is a podcast. You can listen to PPP sound like he's going to a funeral. Topics! Managing expectations, predicting the rest of the month of October, playing a "good road game" and more. Check it out!

Game one is tonight on Hockey Night in Canada and I'm at work wearing my Kessel tshirt under my work clothes. This is exciting and a little bit sexy. Our sound guy is wearing Habs boxers on Twitter today but no worry because the Podcast is here! We talk about the demotion of Mitchell and Hanson, do some spitballing on Jeff Finger and opening night and talk a little bit about Nazem Kadri. Music list after the jump.

While PPP is on vacation we decided to replace him on the podcast with someone much smarter: mc79 of mc79hockey.com. He's a lawyer and gave us his interpretation of the upcoming string of litigation surrounding the Kovalchuk contract. We also talked about the Leafs: his feelings about next season for the Blue and White, his take on the Kessel deal, and how Pension Plan Puppets has changed his opinion of Leafs fans.
