Actually, as a birthday gift to my daughter @jamieloftusHELP, I agreed to emerge from my lair to help with this very special episode. Been awhile since we recorded, but I stand by every word I mumbled, and was happy to have my honorarium donated to a youth hockey program.
NEW EPISODE ALERT! In honor of Jamie’s birthday, we invited her dad to cover the episode he’s been asking about once a year for all seven years of the show! Mike Loftus, hockey writer extraordinaire, joins @caitlindurante and @jamieloftusHELP to discuss SLAP SHOT!

Flea's mother, @jamieloftusHELP, is psyched to be hanging with me while his mother travels around the country, promoting her book (pictured) and just generally mouthing off about hot dogs and other such stuff.

We also forgot to talk about betting.
Here’s a hockey podcast with no swearing. It’s groundbreaking!

Well, look at this ... Publisher wisely opened pre-sales to coincide with the start of the NHL season, no? No? Respect for my personal kid, @jamieloftusHELP (who makes, um, suggestions about the best way to order)!
i wrote a book about hot dogs they somehow let me call it RAW DOG i think the executives don’t know what that means it comes out 5/9/2023 and pre orders are absurdly helpful will u accept this rose 🌭💋 read.macmillan.com/lp/raw-do…

Coincidentally, I'm currently going through piles and piles of old issues. I'm on a first-name basis with the folks at the recycling center.

Pretty wise move on your part, @jamieloftusHELP: Made sure to cover one of the few things your Dad didn't cover, lest someone should suffer in comparison.
in the grand tradition of loftuses as local sports writers, i covered a salad eating contest between @OmgItzRaina and a rabbit for the @latimes 🐇🥗 your move, dad
