THE WCHL PODCAST
by Western Collegiate Hockey League
WCHL Commissioner Chris Perry, trusty sidekick Andrew Magerkurth and special WCHL guests discuss the Western Collegiate Hockey League (ACHA Men's Division 1) and a lot of other non-hockey related topics on this incredibly mediocre podcast. While we try to focus on the WCHL, which is comprised of collegiate hockey teams from Arizona, Arizona State, Central Oklahoma, Colorado, Colorado State, Grand Canyon, Missouri State, Nevada-Las Vegas, Oklahoma & Utah, we admit we get distracted and talk music, food, stories from the road, and whatever else pops into the limited minds of two guys that are definitely "not hockey guys".

ABOUT THIS SHOW
WCHL Commissioner Chris Perry, trusty sidekick Andrew Magerkurth and special WCHL guests discuss the Western Collegiate Hockey League (ACHA Men's Division 1) and a lot of other non-hockey related topics on this incredibly mediocre podcast. While we try to focus on the WCHL, which is comprised of collegiate hockey teams from Arizona, Arizona State, Central Oklahoma, Colorado, Colorado State, Grand Canyon, Missouri State, Nevada-Las Vegas, Oklahoma & Utah, we admit we get distracted and talk music, food, stories from the road, and whatever else pops into the limited minds of two guys that are definitely "not hockey guys".
