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.

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.

This pod makes me laugh every week without fail and I love it! The Coven got me back into hockey, and got me to love life again along the way! I love to go back and listen to my favorite old episodes when I’m feeling down, or just need a hearty cackle

This podcast gives enlightening and entertaining insights into the absurd world of hockey. Unfiltered commentary? They've got it. Scholarly sports discussion? They've got that too. I'm hooked and I look forward to each new episode.Read full review »
