August 25 2021 - Kristian Jack (VP Media & Content CPL), Joey Votto (Cincinnati Reds First Baseman), Patrick Johnston (Post Media Canucks Reporter)

Jam packed show with a former MVP in the lineup. 

The Welcome Matt looks at the Athletic’s fan confidence poll and how the Canucks landed 29th out of 32 teams on the poll.

Soccer insider Kristian Jack follows and previews the Canadian Championship match between the Whitecaps and Pacific FC Thursday evening from Victoria, tells us why Ryan Gauld is so special for the ‘Caps, why he’s not concerned that Canada won’t get it’s full squad in World Cup qualifying, and why he thinks that Canada should be the favourite over Honduras.

2010 NL MVP Joey Votto of the Cincinnati Reds follows Hashtags - the best and worst of Twitter and tells us how his career progressed over the years, why he still feels like a kid while playing the game, whether or not he feels he’s worthy of making the baseball Hall of Fame, the season the Reds are having this year, and whether he compares himself to the great Larry Walker. 

The Price is Right looks at the career of former Seahawks tight end and Canadian, Luke Willson. 

Canucks insider Patrick Johnston joins next and dismisses the comments that former NHL player Brandon Prust tweeted on Wednesday, why he thinks the Canucks will be in tough to take a step forward this season, whether he feels that Oliver Ekman-Larsson can bounce back to his former self, why he doesn’t think the Abbotsford Canucks radio rights will land on Sportsnet radio, and why the NHL hasn’t fully committed to making its players be fully vaccinated.

It’s Blake’s turn to try to sizzle on Hot Take.

The show wraps with all the Errors & Omissions.
