You're all invited to a sleepover
You know the golden hour at about 2 a.m. when you and your pals have been laughing and shrieking at each other all night, after a day spent being rowdy while window shopping and ordering every appetizer on the menu, and your voice is hoarse and your stomach hurts from how hard you've been laughing (and also possibly how many mozzarella sticks you've eaten), and you are all draped around each other in a blanket pile and you know you should go to sleep but you're filled with a warm glow of love and fellowship and the knowledge that you can Get Weird about the things you love in front of these people and they will still think you're wonderful? That's the vibe of this, the ONLY sports podcast I will probably ever follow. Prior to You Can't Do That, the only things about hockey that spoke to me were the punching and Soviet defection stories, and I felt guilty about liking the first part. Getting to follow along in real time as the hockey coven lives through a historic playoffs season for their family, the Washington Capitals, is an incredible treat. I love that in addition to experiencing the camaraderie, I'm actually learning about sports psychology and sociology and cultural differences within hockey-playing nations and key historical figures in hockey. (Keep those defection stories coming, guys.) Finding out that sports fandom can be joyful and weird instead of dour and math-obsessed and full of gatekeepers has been a gift.Read full review »

These ladies present an amazing show whenever they put one out. I don’t listen to many podcasts more than once but as a die hard hockey fan of the capitals this is a must. Their segments have left me dying laughing many times. I may not be their target audience but they’ve made a die hard fan out...Read full review »

Witty women losing their shizz about hockey. What more could you want, other than Wednesdays to come early. Thanks for the hockey education, coven, and for teaching me that I can describe my devotion to my favorite sport/coping mechanism as “you know, regular.”
