August 28 - Hockey Hall of Famer Pierre Turgeon
Manage episode 375467756 series 3417343
Today's episode will comfort you as you face the reality of the summer winding down (where did it go?), with fantastic stories about big milestones from Mike Schmidt, Lanny McDonald, Althea Gibson, Kurt Warner, Monica Seles and Nick Price. Plus, one of the most unbelievable stories you'll ever hear about two men who BOTH survived the sinking of the Titanic and then faced off in a US Open tennis match just months later. You won't believe what you hear. On top of all that, NHL legend Pierre Turgeon joins the show to have a candid chat with us, picking the winner of this week's DORK DRAFT where we debated who were the best players he played with during his illustrious career. Pierre is a true gentleman and is headed to the Hockey Hall of Fame later this year and our chat was a perfect warmup for his induction speech as he reminisces about his favourite coaches and teammates. Come for the sports history - stay for the chuckles.
