This week on Puckin' Beauts, we are coming in hot!!We get into the world of sandbaggers in adult hockey, the kids who dominate when they’re little and then suddenly get swallowed by the pack once everyone else catches up through puberty, and the reality of youth club sports culture, including why Jenna thinks parts of it are an absolute crock.We also talk about one of those Minnesota tournaments where the hockey somehow ends up being the least fun part, while everything around it turns into the real event.And because no episode is complete without an unforgettable story, Jenna tells the story of the time a bird literally pooped in her mouth as a kid.Hockey, hot takes, childhood trauma via wildlife, and zero filter...just the way we like it!xoxo,Jenna & Jackie

This week we’re talking stinky gear, hockey soup, frozen toes, post-game showers, and why hockey players might just be the toughest athletes in sports!

We also spiral into hot takes on basketball, soccer, and baseball, plus Jackie’s update on her Zam Zam certification progress and our latest business idea!New this week, we’re opening up the floor for listener questions. Want to know something about us, hockey, life, or anything behind the mic? Send your questions to puckinbeauts26@gmail.com ... no question is off limits! xoxo,Jenna & Jackie

The weirdness in Ep. 5 was too good to stop, so we’re back with part two and our first, cold called guest. There's more hockey talk and unfiltered stories you’ve come to expect from Puckin' Beauts.Our guest, Meghan takes us deeper into the wonderfully weird memories from her youth hockey days, Jackie battles yet another round of technical difficulties, and we officially workshop our latest brilliant business idea: the Zam Zam wedding venture no one asked for but everyone probably needs.As always, it’s hockey, life, laughs, and the kind of conversations that go completely off the rails in the best way. If you can, this one is definitely better to watch and listen, because the reactions and facial expressions make it even funnier.Tune in and let us know if the Zam Zam wedding business should become a real thing and drop your favorite moment in the comments.xoxo,Jenna & Jackie

In this episode, we unpack absolute weirdness.

We spiral through some of our strangest hockey-adjacent memories — from condiment-covered ice cream goalies and childhood yard crimes to deer camp tournament lodging and naked locker room encounters.

Along the way, we troubleshoot Jenna’s “microphone condom,” revisit a traumatic first tournament back after injury, and accidentally decide to launch a completely legitimate new business venture involving a Zamboni and legally binding matrimony.

Hockey is strange. We are stranger.
Nothing makes sense. Everything tracks.

Jenna & Jackie

This episode we’re sharing embarrassing beer league moments, including own-goal tip-ins, unexpected wipeouts, and the general experience of trying to look confident while absolutely losing control. We also dive into off-ice injuries that somehow feel just as hockey-related, from stitches caused by kittens to permanent finger damage courtesy of a very aggressive softball coach.

And of course, we talk about one of our favorite beer league dynamics: the energy shift when certain guys realize they just got beat on the ice by women.

If you’ve ever been humbled by hockey, life, or your own decision-making skills, you’re in good company.

This episode is about showing up, laughing at yourself, and embracing the reality that sometimes the biggest hits happen far from the boards.

xoxo,

Jenna & Jackie

Did this episode get a little deeper than we expected? Yes. Did we still manage to make it weird? Also, yes. Did we somehow end up talking about world records, power soakers, and why hockey becomes your entire personality? Absolutely.

In ep. 3, we talk about how hockey has shaped our confidence in ways we didn’t see coming. Jenna admits that hockey has basically become her identity (and shares her long-term plan to become the oldest woman still playing hockey… preferably while also breaking a second world record at the same time). Jackie talks about the love she has for women’s hockey, the friendships that come from it, and how special it is to now be coaching both of her kids and watching them fall in love with the game too.

Somewhere along the way we also talk about co-ed hockey, why perspectives change over time, how Jenna wants to die while playing hockey, and Jackie shares the legendary “power soakers and wet crotches” story… which may or may not have led to us being called dark pervs.

We also want to hear from you. If Jenna is going to break the record for oldest woman still playing hockey, what second world record should she attempt at the same time? Jackie suggested longest hair or longest fingernails… but we know the internet can do better.

And yes… stay until the end. The imperfect ending is still there 😊

Did this episode go off the rails? Yes. Do we overshare? Also yes. Are we exposing ourselves to the internet anyway? Absolutely! Should you stay until the end? Also yes! We keep the bloopers in the outro because apparently we still don’t know how to act professional. In this episode, we go back to the beginning and how we actually got into hockey. Jackie started in dance (yes, really), and Jenna’s first year on the ice was playing ringette… which included accidentally sticking herself in the stomach on day one. Naturally, this leads us straight into our worst and most embarrassing hockey stories, because apparently humiliation is a universal hockey experience. Now we want to hear yours! What’s your most embarrassing hockey moment? Do you have a weird superstition or good-luck ritual before games? Send us your stories, we might share them in a future episode. We also follow up on Jackie’s explanation of “shuffling” (link below) and share a little more about ringette for anyone wondering where hockey journeys sometimes begin.

Is it polished? Nope!

Do we know what we’re doing? Also no!

Does it have a proper ending? Definitely not.

Did we still launch it anyway? Yes! We sure did!

We didn’t have a roadmap or know what the hell we were doing. We just started!

In this episode, we talk about how we met, how Puck Yea! Hockey was born, and how two people who had no business starting a podcast somehow ended up with microphones. Nothing about this was planned, and none of it is perfect, but every part of it matters.

If you’ve ever tried something new before you felt ready…this one’s for you.

We’ll get better. Probably. Hopefully. But, no promises.

xoxo
