Completely Conspicuous

Part 2 of my conversation with guest James Gralian as we discuss the latest NHL lockout. I've also got the Bonehead of the Week and music from The Hush Now, Wintersleep, Benjamin Gibbard and METZ. Show notes: - Recorded via Skype - Check out James' blog Jerseys and Hockey Love - The Bruins may lose much of the goodwill they gained from their Cup win - The Panthers fired their mascot, the NHL's cutting staff hours - Preparing for post-lockout play - Fantasy hockey leagues are on hold - James is certified to be a hockey ref - Watching other sports instead - Going to rock shows is a nice alternative - Jay: Saw PiL open for INXS at Radio City, 1988 - James: Good college hockey in the Denver area - Players are more bitter this time around - Lockout impacts many people beyond players and owners - Hockey bloggers gained prominence during last lockout - Life goes on - With no hockey, fans are finding they're saving a lot of money - Jay: I'm okay with shorter regular season - James recommends the movie "Goon" -
