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 »

More reviews of You Can't Do That
this is the most Fun hockey podcast that exists: it’s got heart, it’s got jokes, it’s got the world’s best jamie benn impression. I started listening right as i was getting back into the sport and it’s only become more enjoyable as i re-emotionally-invest myself in it. 10/10, A+, highly recommend.

I love listening to You Can't Do That. This podcast gives me everything I want from sports (Hockey in particular): The Drama within the Hockey World, discussions of dreamboats, and delightful humor and conversation. I don't pay attention to actual hockey, I just listen to this podcast,...Read full review »

words i learned from this podcast: elan (flair, style, vibe), inchoate (not fully formed, primordial soup-esque), antediluvian (literally: before the flood, generally means super old and sometimes outdated) and of course backcheck (….i’ll let kelly explain)
