Hockey Cards-Part 1

Phil & Matt talk about their recent landscaping adventure, sharing their annoyance of black flies. Phil talks about lawn grass and an easier option: a clover lawn. They show that two social scientists can indeed do manual work--but neither could everyday! Hockey Cards - Part 1 (17:56)  Matt & Phil are joined by a collection of hockey cards from Phil’s past. They crack open a few binders and boxes of cards from the 1990’s. The story goes that it all started with a convenience store-owning uncle, but turned into a collection of life and hockey memories. From Manon Rhéaume to Patrick Roy, and (Captain) Kirk McLean to Martin Brodeur, Matt & Phil talk about their favorite goaltenders. Take a trip down memory lane with this episode all about cards. Recommendations (1:02:14) Matt recommends to watch the 2017 Stanley Cup playoffs. Phil recommends a few books from Lee Gutkind: “Keep it Real”, “The Art of Creative Nonfiction”, “At the End of Life” and one by Carolyn Forche and Philip Gerard “Writing Creative Nonfiction” Concluding thought: The gum from packs of hockey cards always got chewed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow Semi-Intellectual Musings on Twitter: @The_SIM_Pod Email Matt & Phil: [email protected] Subscribe to the podcast: https://thesim.podbean.com/feed/ For full show notes: https://thesim.podbean.com/e/Hockey-Cards-Part-1 iTunes: https://goo.gl/gkAb6V Stitcher: https://goo.gl/PfiVWJ GooglePlay: https://goo.gl/uFszFq Please leave us a rating and a review, it really helps the show!   Music: Song "Soul Challenger" appearing on "Cullahnary School" by Cullah Available at: http://www.cullah.com Under CC BY SA license http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/
