The Hockey Show - Episode 540

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, is back tonight with a fun show as we meet two people who have worked together on something amazing! I will say that this show was recorded and produced yesterday with both Teebz and Jason working at the 2023 Female World Sport School Challenge tonight, but the recency of the episode means nothing is out of date when it comes to information. In saying that, let's get into this fun show as we meet two individuals who have come together to make something that everyone will enjoy!

These two men to the left are tonight's guests as Teebz welcomes former hockey player Ajay Baines and author Sean Campbell to the show! Together, they wrote Stand Out: The True Story of Hockey Hero Ajay Baines that deals with both Ajay's hockey career and his diabetes diagnosis at the age of 16. I reviewed the book one week ago, and it was an absolute pleasure to speak to these two gentlemen about how the idea for the book came about, some of the details in the book, Ajay's mindset when he was diagnosed with diabetes as he was becoming a WHL star, Sean's travel destinations, how Sean got into publishing, and a pile of other stuff that will prompt smiles and laughter as these two long-time friends really have created something amazing with Stand Out: The True Story of Hockey Hero Ajay Baines. I am truly grateful for the time these men gave me to discuss the book, and I hope you'll find the chat just as enjoyable as I did tonight on The Hockey Show at 5:30pm CT on one of 101.5 FM, Channel 718 on MTS TV, or via UMFM.com!

If you live outside Winnipeg and want to listen, we have options! 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, so if you want to stream the show I'd recommend Radio Garden to do that as it works nicely with Safari. If you're more of an app person, we recommend you use the TuneIn app found on the App Store or Google Play Store. 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 chats with Calder Cup winner Ajay Baines and children's book author Sean Campbell about hockey, life, writing books, publishing books, "the goal", and much more exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
