The Hockey Show - Episode 422

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, is back on UMFM tonight with Teebz and Jenna welcoming a guest who we both admire and respect to our full capabilities. Our guest tonight has been on The Hockey Show before a number of times, but she always has an open invitation to the show. Her most recent achievement warranted us having her back on the show as she can now add "author" to her many other titles that include three-time Olympian, five-time World Championship gold medalist, professional hockey player, general manager of a professional hockey team, and mechanical engineer!

Tonight, Teebz and Jenna are beyond excited to talk to Sami Jo Small about her new book, The Role I Played published by ECW Press! We talk to Sami about everything in her new book out in bookstores today - get yourself a copy! - including going to Nagano as part of the first women's hockey competition at the Olympics, her interactions with coaches and the portrayal of them in The Role I Played, some of the players she played with and who inspired her to follow her hockey dream, graduating from Stanford with her mechanical engineering degree and her work on hockey equipment, playing for Sweden, beep tests, and a lot more! If you missed the Teebz's Book Club review for The Role I Played, you can read it here as well! There's a lot to cover from Sami Jo Small's book, so make sure you tune in at 5:30pm CT on one of 101.5 FM, Channel 718 on MTS TV, or on UMFM.com!

Where's the best place can you hear tonight's show if you're outside Winnipeg or not near a radio, you ask? The new UMFM website's online streaming player is pretty awesome if you want to listen online. If you're using an Apple device, the player doesn't seem to like Safari yet, but we highly recommend you use the TuneIn app found on the App Store or perhaps another browser. If you do use the TuneIn app, you won't be disappointed. It's a solid app.

If you have questions, you can email all show queries and comments to hockeyshow@umfm.com! Tweet me anytime with questions you may have by hitting me up at @TeebzHBIC on Twitter! I'm here to listen to you, so make your voice heard!

Tonight, Teebz and Jenna pepper one of the greatest goalies to call Manitoba home when we sit down with Sami Jo Small and discuss her new book, The Role I Played, in great detail as we learn about Olympics, World Championships, ups and downs, coaches, equipment, why beep tests are ridiculous, and much more exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
