RA fighting for his life against those numbers had me laughing so hard I actually almost passed out from lack of oxygen.

Love Trung's energy and the info he brings. Definitely bring him back on soon.

I agree, I was considering skipping that part but glad I didn't... unreal guest, great explanation of these crazy stories.

[@xTymezz]

Quite the personality. Really enjoyed his appearance on last years pod

That doesnt take much...

I wasn't sure the date of this episode...oilers be doing good now but damn inconsistency lol I just can't believe Whitney said oilers were good 2 weeks ago lmaoooo I'm pretty sure he said he was giving up on him the same week as this one haha😂

[@derekp_]

For Biz’a question at the end, strung Phan is a top 5 guest. Please have him on the show more regularly. I always share his episodes with several friends.

[@kylegannon3846]

Biz and Whit correcting Rear’s math at 47:42, but then still being wayyy off thinking $2.5 billion is 10% of $250 billion haha had me on one

Thanks for watching, Judd! Was an honor to jump on the pod

OMG, I came for the Sharks and Oilers take. Then Stepan interview was great. And Holy EFF, Trung Phan was absolutely awesome. So impressed with the boys knowledge of all the crap going on in crypto/ai. BEST PODCAST!!

Love the early drops

Was absolutely pumped to see you on Hockey Night In Canada ❤

[@onlyDHR]

as a die hard ducks fan, hearing the boys talk about them like they did is so refreshing and exciting!!!

[@dylanfaith5490]

It’s been a rough for us ducks fans since that San Jose sweep. This team has more heart than I’ve seen since 2017

[@coastingalong]

as a rangers fan who has no rivalry with Anaheim, i’ve always liked them and root for them when they play. it’s always nice hearing good things about them

[@dana102083]

​@coastingalong as an oilers fan, I always hate on NY, regardless of the team lmao. I'm still upset from when rangers beat Canucks in 95.. that one goal ..Richter.. THAT ONE put the city right next to.flames 😂😂😂

So entertaining listening to Trung and the boys chat about all types of topics.

[@scottier5590]

Trung was awesome!! Please have more of him and more stuff like that. Love seeing the crews take on non hockey related events

[@nathanhansen5114]

Loved the interview with Trung!!! The business and technology topics were very interesting and informative! Would love to see more interviews with him!

Thank you boys.. even RA. You’ve helped me get through some dark days. It’s more than hockey

As a Rangers fan I always loved some Big-Game Stepan - also, thought he was having fun with the whole “I got a Tee Time” but holy shit he really wasn’t kidding - left mid question giving zero fu__s 🤣

[@gregjohnson3873]

Trung Phan is amazing.

[@payamahmad8509]

Trung Phan was awesome last time and even better this time. Need him on again!

[@ohwowthatsgood]

Trung is great. Forgot how good that last conversation with him was. You guys should do, at least, a yearly conversation with him.

[@robertsasaki3397]

Bring Trung on more often. He is so entertaining and knowledgeable.

[@Grizzology]

My dad was acting the same way RA is in this episode just before his dementia kicked in. Serious note RA, maybe you should see a doc just to be safe

[@Xclsuiv]

tbf i could see trying to explain that 10-goal stat in 30 years to be a little tricky to word, especially if he just quickly wrote down the stat.

[@Grizzology]

@@Xclsuiv absolutely I agree, just better to be safe than sorry I suppose. I am Sure it is just a tongue twister, but it did remind me of seeing my dad deteriorate over a short 8 weeks.

[@Xclsuiv]

@@Grizzology sorry to hear that, how old was he?

That second interview was a quick skip

More Trung please. He's killing it here.

[@Ramitupyourkilt]

Awesome show guys!

[@matthewkapfer2464]

Trung was amazing. Gimme monthly appearances.

[@JaminSlamin1]

Guys that podcast was A++ !! Trung was epic and it was cool to have some non-hockey stuff mixed in to break it all up (especially stuff as fascinating as what Trung talked about). Love RA having a hernia over simple math and the Anaheim Sharks 😅😅 As an aside, I know you guys spoke some rugby on the last pod and talked about maybe getting someone on. Let me know if you're looking for someone, I'm from New Zealand and know tonnes of guys down here! Much love

[@griffisjm]

I just had an asthma attack and almost died driving off the road laughing then coughing so hard to RA trying to get that stat right. All time top 10 chiclets moment there!

[@MisterMo25]

Trung should be on monthly. Heck, he should have his own podcast!

[@evanrivera2989]

Trung is awesome. Would love to hear from him more

[@paulc9684]

Stepan’s ot goal is burned into my memory I’ll always remember that series

[@robquinn9]

Holy shit, the Trung Phan segment should win awards. The one liners uttered are pure gold. SBF is indeed a goon and had a smokeshow girlfriend, who would have become First Lady if SBF's 5% chance of becoming President materialized. This is what I learned and I'm grateful. And he made bank on an AI investment parlay with the stolen funds. Murica.

EPIC episode guys. Hard to believe but they get better and better all the time. You guys are slinging it weekly.

[@hockeyallday757]

I have to say, I had no idea who Trung Phan was before this video but I was pleasantly surprised by this interview and his absolute wealth of knowledge in reference to AI and the finance realm. I would really love to see more interviews like this in the future in addition to the hockey related interviews. It’s always interesting to learn about something I had literally 0 clue about from someone who sounds like an expert on the matter, great job fellas!

[@blueshirtshockey93]

G such a grear idea to go to all different states and see all the college rinks and games. Last year my dtr and i went to Detroit to see my Blueshirts then took an uber to Ann Arbor to see my Wolverines. It was incredible This season we plan to go to North Dakota to the “ Ralph”. So great idea G!!! Love u all !!!! Game Notes incredible all of the Chiclets… the sandbagger all of it! ❤

[@Tylerthemyler]

I loved the trung interview lots of good info

[@joeseaquist4927]

Trung was awesome. His energy just kept you in to wherever he was saying. Having him a few times a year just to go over stuff outside of hockey would be sick. Hes got some cool knowledge on movies too. Would love to hear his take on the islanders and spano saga.

[@ms.felonystrutter2472]

As a goalie, I did not us the neck guard flap on my mask, I used the Brown neck guard (one of my 4 goalie's as idols was VANBIESBROUCK and he wore it but it itches so I always thought it looked cool to wear a turtleneck. So I wrapped around my turtleneck....loved the look and fel. RIP Adam

[@tjm1824]

Trung was fkn awesome, could honestly have him on once every couple months and it would be the best segment of the pod

[@justinknechtel]

Yes! I’m the same age as wit and biz, and I grew up with the dub and I now 1000% agree that college hockey is so much superior than juniors. Not even close.

Get Friedman on the pod!

[@jamesvalentine3648]

Needs to be at least twice a season. He's way busy with travel and going to practices and radio hits and what not, which I listen to, so probably can't get more than that. Have they ever had Jeff Marek? Has his daily show but it's only 2 hours so there's more space for him

[@bobert2774]

Imagine having this entire show and adding Jack Hughes (leading scorer in NHL) injury as an after thought for 3 seconds in the last minute.

[@pizza603]

(7:50) The book "Outliers" has a chapter focused on the relationship b/w birthdays and success rates in hockey thats interesting.

Not even joking. Is RA ok? Legit concerned about him. Take care of yourself man.

[@Bobweiser19]

I may have misheard, but think you guys asked your fans for input on neck guards…I think some basic mandatory medical training for referees and/or coaches, players, parents, etc would be way more useful. Malarchuk and Zednik are examples of successful management of major vascular trauma during hockey games. Pretty sure the trainer who got to Malarchuk first on the ice was medic in Vietnam, and Zednik got himself to his bench quickly and trainer had towel pressed up against his wound…but regardless of trainer/first-responder qualifications at NHL level or lack thereof at lower levels of hockey, the main concept is this..remain calm, someone activate Emergency Medical System, and someone put manual pressure on the bleeding vessel/wound. You don’t have a lot of time when these injuries occur, but you do have some (probably a minute or so, maybe even a little longer), and if someone can get and maintain pressure on a bleeder promptly, it will give the injured player and the doctors a really good chance. I understand desire to come up with a piece of equipment to totally protect against these types of injuries, but I think having a little extra mandatory training would be a lot more beneficial.
