About this listen

The holidays aren’t the same for Canadian hockey fans, as the World Juniors lose their luster in a changing sports landscape. Host Brent Radlinsky bellies up to the Fourteen Twenty Sports Bar to unpack World Junior fatigue, from oversaturation, media disconnect, Hockey Canada scandals, and why Canadian pride just doesn’t hit quite like it used to. Is it the commercialization, hard-to-relate athletes, or something deeper? Grab a beer, settle in for honest takes, nostalgia, and hope that this year’s tournament reignites the spark. Plus, find out what’s coming up this week on the Fourteen Twenty Sports Bar Podcast—including the new “Hold My Beer” sports awards and some stocking-stuffer merch. Presented by Righteous Felon Craft Jerky and SeatGeek.
