PARTY ON, GARTH! Joey tempts Jeff's fate on a ladder before the boys get into this week's Kraken Reaction (7:26) which covers how the Seattle Kraken went switch with the peggers, why tonight's matchup against the Las Vegas Golden Knights is do-or-die for the team, updated playoff standings, Jordan Eberle's contract extension, and what Alex Wennberg to the New York Rangers tells Joey about Ron's outlook on the team. In NHL News the two break down some of the bigger moves across the league and unfortunately have to make a case for the Golden Knights after their front office once again utilizes the LTIR loophole to free up cap space and add to an already loaded roster in hopes of winning back-to-back championships as well as moves by the Winnipeg Jets who could surprise some teams in the playoffs and Jeff and Joey's disagreement on what the Detroit Red Wings didn't do at the trade deadline. Next, Ryker Garth Evans (43:20) joins the podcast to discuss where his head is currently at with the squad, eating chicken parm with Tye Kartye, growing up in Calgary, his hit part on Tenny's Talks, playing with Connor Bedard as a Regina Pat, growing his game, napping when his name was called during the NHL Draft and MUCH more. No Dumb Questions (1:17:08) comes from member of the Kraken Pod Fam Jess who asks how the refs determine which faceoff dot to use?! Three Stars of the Week has the boys talking about everything from a rainy flag football game, rewatching Game of Thrones, Dune 2 in iMAX, Joey's daily crossword habit, springing forward into awesomeness, and Ryker Evans and the PR crew behind the Seattle Kraken.

THEY'RE BACKKKKKKKKKKK. Jeff and Joey reunite after Mardi Gras and Disney separate them for nearly two weeks and opt to avoid any spoilers up top, so the good stuff is saved for their Three Stars of the Week. Let's talk Kraken, shall we?! This week's Kraken Reaction (4:52) has two going back to right after the All-Star break where the team hits the road on the east coast and disappointment ensues. Jeff and Joey discuss everything that went both right and wrong in their games against the New Jersey Devils, New York Islanders, Boston Bruins and Detroit Red Wings, how the Boston boys come alive every time they return home, Grubauer's' successful return to net, why the OT losses need to stop, and how Jared McCann is in another category all to his own. Jeff also takes the opportunity to discuss the Red Wings (Detroit Red Wings podcast) and how the hell it is even possible to smuggle an octopus into a stadium. No Dumb Questions (36:15) features member of the Kraken Pod Fam Shannon chiming in from Instagram on if a player is allowed to use their skate to maneuver the puck once their stick has been broken which gives Joey a reason to deep dive into the NHL rule book. Three Stars of the Week covers everything from "Never Split the Difference" to Spotify now having audio books, Mr. and Mrs. Smith on Amazon Prime, an epic Disney recap, and tales from Mardi Gras featuring Jeff going full-on Joey mode the night before his parade and plenty of drunken shenanigans.

Mardi Gras is officially underway in New Orleans and the boys are DEEP in it.

Oh, Olivander! In NHL News: Michaelk Buble has an unhinged press conference that is the highlight of the weekend while on mushrooms and Jeff recalls a night partying with him until 3 in the morning doing shots and Nikita Kucherov mails it in during the skills competition to give the NHL execs a middle finger that naturally sparks some debate in the world of hockey. No Dumb Questions (41:44) comes from a long-standing member of the Kraken Pod Fam who asks what NHL player holds the record for most teams played for in their career and of course the individual was originally drafted by Detroit (Detroit Red Wings podcast).

This team needs a break...and so do we. Jeff and Joey are coming in swinging going into the All-Star break as the two stayed up past midnight CST to watch the Seattle Kraken get blanked by the worst team in the league, the San Jose Sharks. This week's Kraken Reaction (7:15) covers a demonstrative win against the reeling Chicago Blackhawks, why the OT loss against the St. Louis Blues was the worst loss of the season, how Jordan Eberle's Dad Energy continues to greatly benefit the organization, and how in the hell the Seattle Kraken lost to San Jose before taking a much-needed break. Shocking to no one, the two have a different outlook on the last game of the first half of the season before Joey goes in on Hakstol and why his comments are the game were bothersome to him. Jeff shares some intel from friend of the pop Piper Shaw on what the Seattle Kraken are doing with the hats collected from the 1 and only hat trick of the organization so far and Joey recalls how it's similar to what they've learned about the Columbus Blue Jackets and their home barn. In NHL News: Jeff breaks down the deep waters that Hockey Canada is in following a sexual assault investigation amidst allegations from the 2018 World Juniors, why that's impacting the world of hockey now beyond the NHL, how this sport has a checkered past that needs to be addressed, and the two discuss what can be done in order to flip the script and do what's right moving forward. We're looking at you, Gary Bettman and Calgary Flames. No Dumb Questions (52:50) has member of the Kraken Pod Fam Ben Cumberland weigh in from Instagram on what is the most common outcome in NHL games which leads Joey down a deep dive of analytics covering nearly 60,000 hockey games, the statistical most likely outcome, how sports betting sites use that information to their benefit when setting lines, and why last night's Columbus Blue Jackets vs St. Louis Blues 1-0 outcome was a rarity seen in the NHL. Three Stars of the Week covers everything from Dan Campbell and the Detroit Lions with their improbable run that was cut short, "Monkey Man," Jeff discovering "The Office" two decades too late, Disney with the fam, Jon Stewart returning to the Daily Show, and much more.

Sylvester Stalone, Cliffhanger! What's worse: being the person who is visibly sick around others and pretending that you're not or a person who talks themselves into being sick all the time?! This week's Kraken Reaction (8:19) covers everything that has gone wrong in the current 4-game losing streak, why Joey has never been more pro-Dave Hakstol that he currently is, how star players in the NHL get special treatment, and how the vibes of the Seattle Kraken are going to flip right as the team heads into the all-star break.

THE BOYS - BLOCK IS HOT! Notorious rap guy Jeff Januszek starts off this week's episode droppin' bars as the boys catch up quickly on the new year feeling refreshed after a 5 game pause in action. This week's Kraken Reaction (3:40) covers a beatdown of the Ottatwats, a breakdown of the biggest road test of the 2023-2024 season, highlights from Joey Daccord's interview on Spittin' Chiclets, and Oliver Bjorkstrand's anti-climactic All-Star selection that had him canceling plans on an Air B&B in San Diego. Next, in NHL News the boys discuss Connor Bedard's fractured jaw and why the Chicago Blackhawks are cursed, why Nylander is a top 10 players in the league and was rewarded the biggest bag in Toronto Maple Leafs history, and a blockbuster trade between the Anaheim Ducks and Philadelphia Flyers with Cutter Gautier citing GM and coaching concerns before John Tortorella sounds off in a post-game interview on the matter creating some drama in the league. No Dumb Questions (56:55) comes from Joey this week who asks exactly what the All-Star selection for the NHL looks like after a very underwhelming All-Star selection announcement from the league and the surprise but deserved pick of Oliver Bjorkstrand had Seattle Kraken fans with their heads spinning and why the NHL Operations Department has a heavy hand in all of it. Three Stars of the Week covers everything from Mardi Gras and King Cake to Daisy Jones and the Six, the Seattle Mariners (despite Joey's reluctance), the Captains of the World, the Detroit Lions and much more.

EPISODE 100, BABY! We did it, y'all. 100 episodes of THE Kraken Pod are officially in the books. What a ride. Episode 100's Kraken Reaction (5:40) hits The Depths early as the boys pontificate on what position Joey would play if he were an NHL'er, why the good vibes are still rolling despite the Seattle Kraken losing their last two in a shootout and overtime, the impact of the Tomas Totar trade and the lower body industry, and a recap of an absolute beatdown of Connor Bedard and the Chicago Blackhawks. Next, in NHL News, Jeff and Joey discuss the firing of D.J. Smith in Ottawa, his history with the organization, who is stepping up in his role, and a tribute by Jeff to Ottawa and Detroit Red Wings legend Bryan Murray. For No Dumb Questions (40:20), with Jacques Martin stepping in to coach the Ottawa Senators for his second stint with the team, Joey asks if this is the first time someone has coached the same team twice in the NHL which leads to a breakdown of Ottawa's history including their run at the Stanley Cup in 2003 that had them losing in 7 games in the Eastern Conference Final to the eventual champion, New Jersey Devils. Jeff surprises Joey by opting to pass on Three Stars of the Week to surprise him with his top 5 (6) moments from The Kraken Pod over the past three seasons and hilarity ensues as the two reminisce on the past as well as discuss plans for the future that include guilt and blackmailing of future guests.

WE'RE FLIPPING THE VIBES, BABY! This week's Kraken Reaction (2:50) has Joey starting it off with a merchandise update and a thank you to the members of the Kraken Pod Fam for all of their support along with a ticket giveaway to this Saturday's matchup against the Los Angeles Kings at Climate Pledge Arena. Jeff keeps the vibes going by skipping past the losses and focusing on the Seattle Kraken ending their 8-game losing streak by manhandling the Florida Panthers on Tuesday night. Joey Daccord records his first ever NHL shutout, Ryker "Garth" Evans gets his first NHL point on an apple, Goalvanen scores on the 1-year anniversary of joining the Seattle Kraken, and Wennberg puts one in net on a 2-on-1. Can the boys keep this momentum rolling?! Next, in NHL News the boys breakdown the firing of the St. Louis Blue's Craig Berube and put things into context with the Seattle Kraken and their current hot seat situation with Dave Hakstol. No Dumb Questions (37:17) features long time member of the Kraken Pod Fam Amanda Surman chiming in on what variations of hat tricks we have in the NHL and differentiates a natural hatty from the rest and boys reflect on the Gordie Howe hat trick along with some quick-fire trivia. Three Stars of the Week covers everything from Shohei Ohtani to steroid shots, Jeff's new house, the first Mardi Gras ball of the season, and a heartfelt thank you to the Kraken Pod Fam for keeping the pod going even in the dark days.

Please have a seat and close your eyes as Jeff and Joey offer you a safe space to divulge all of your true inner-feelings regarding the Seattle Kraken. This week's Kraken Reaction (2:05) features what the hell went wrong on the road trip, if Dave Hakstol is solely to blame for the woes in the Emerald City, Vince Dunn's comments to reporters following the loss in Montreal, the Kraken King of Toronto, and why things will not be getting any easier on the upcoming six-game homestand. Next, Joey talks about the official news of the NHL salary cap increasing for next season while Jeff openly discusses on which free agents he would like Ron Francis to pursue in order to turn this thing around for the Seattle Kraken including a very controversial player from the neighbors up north, the Vancouver Canucks. No Dumb Questions (40:10) has Ernie Fitchel writing in to ask how players know when it's time to change on the fly since hockey doesn't pause for new players like every other sport.

As Jackie Moon aka Will Ferrell once famously shouted when a bear got loose in the middle of a basketball game: "EVERYBODY PANIC!" This week's Kraken Reaction (5:32) has Jeff immediately asking Joey if he has hit the panic button yet now that November 24th has passed. Joey gives his answer companied with an in-depth breakdown of why he feels the way that he does before the boys break down last week's games against the San Jose Sharks, Vancouver Canucks back at Climate Pledge Arena, and last night's game against the Chicago Blackhawks. Next, in NHL News, Jeff and Joey summarize the origin of the Corey Perry rumors that lit the hockey world on fire, why Connor Bedard's mom got involved, and how the Chicago Blackhawks handled it as an organization which initially only led to more speculation across the NHL. Jeff talks about the signing of Patrick Kane to the Detroit Red Wings, what he can bring to that roster, as well as a history of why he's a problematic figure in the world of hockey that few teams were willing to touch. Jeff also has a conspiracy theory that involves the league and Gary Bettman intentionally drumming up controversy to remain at the forefront of sporting world news. No Dumb Questions (1:12:28) features longtime member of the Kraken Pod Fam Michelle T asking what shooting percentage is and how it's calculated which leads to a few variables that many might not know. Three Stars of the Week covers everything from Jeff's secret not-so-secret affinity for Hallmark Christmas movies, an epic Thanksgiving holiday, water fasting for 5 days, Christmas in New Orleans, why buying a house (fingers crossed) sucks, and Joey getting his hands on a pair of very limited sneakers while hanging out with an NBA superstar.

4 to 3, across the board, all week. Jeff and Joey discuss how tired they are after watching the Seattle Kraken have their 8th game of the season go into overtime after the squad once again had a late lead and why that's been impacting Kraken Pod After Dark. This week's Kraken Reaction (2:50) covers the brutal meltdown to the Edmonton Oilers, why Joey is cautious after taking care of the New York Islanders at home, building moments in a massive win at Rogers Arena against the Vancouver Canucks, and why in the hell the Seattle Kraken cannot take care of the Calgary Flames at Climate Pledge Arena. Philipp Grubauer has to exit last night's game after an apparent injury, and Vince Dunn remans hot with 7 points in his last 7 games, but the team is still struggling to find its identity and consistency, currently sitting in the second Wild Card spot despite being under .500 on the season so far. Joey's panic button date is still intact as his clock on the Seattle Kraken's 2023-2024 season is ticking. In NHL News: it is being reported that in 2024 we will see the return of the All-Star Fantasy Draft. Joey utilizes this as an excuse to ask what is the All-Star Fantasy Draft for this week's No Dumb Questions (34:04) and the boys go into a debate on whether or not this will be good for the league moving forward. Three Stars of the Week covers everything from reflection and gratitude for Thanksgiving, Jeff's runner's high, buying a house, pumpkin beer and seasonal drinking, drum lessons, and much more.

Buckle up, folks. This one gets a little heated. Fresh off an absolute beatdown at the hands of the Colorado Avalanche, Jeff and Joey immediately go into this week's Kraken Reaction (2:38) which features: the return of Turbo, how the Seattle Kraken can never seem to get any momentum going, Grubauer's contract, and what changes have to be made before the two disagree on the trajectory of the team and whether or not the Seattle Kraken should name a Captain. Jeff Lasso and Joey "The Realist" go head to head in a discussion about what Ron Francis and Dave Hakstol should do regarding the underperforming squad before another conversation is had around whether or not Dave Hakstol has lost the locker room after his "shoot the fucking puck" message falls on deaf ears. Next, in NHL News: Shane Wright is out on Team Canada and a particular series in Sweden has caught the attention of Jeff. For No Dumb Questions (57:09), member of the Kraken Pod Fam, Carly from Idaho is back this week with another question around why penalties in the league can be delayed.

Oh no, we suck again! The good vibes are being tested after the Kraken lose to Arizona in another shootout while Jeff remains optimistic. This week's Kraken Reaction (3:08) covers what went right in the home game against the Nashville Predators, how the boys can no longer refer to the Calgary Flames as a trash team after they throttle the Kraken, and how the Arizona Coyotes spoil Joey Daccord coming home to Arizona State by handing the Kraken another predictable shootout loss at Mullet Arena. Joey has looked ahead at the schedule and has officially picked a panic button date for the Seattle Kraken and also discussed how Jaden Schwartz has been and continues to be his dark horse candidate for team MVP for 2023-2024. In NHL News, the toothless Sharks finally get their first win and Mason Lohrei, a Louisiana native, becomes the first Louisianan to put on skates in the NHL for the Boston Bruins meanwhile the Edmonton Oilers are in a crisis and have placed Campbell on waivers and the boys discuss whether or not they are going to catch Edmonton at the wrong time when they host them in Seattle this week. No Dumb Questions (46:00) has members of the Kraken Pod Fam Carly asking whether or not a goalie's save percentage is impacted during an empty net and how those stats are tracked.
