On The Phone: Casey Bannerman
Casey Bannerman (caseybannerman.com) is on the phone to chat with Clay about creativity during COVID. We're all feeling the press, the question is how are we finding ways to release it? Casey is one of Toronto's preeminent sports designers having worked around the NBA with several players and teams, but has always kept a soft spot for the hometown Raptors team. The two discuss left over feelings following the Raps second round playoff exit, the outpouring of love for Pascal Siakam, and all those COVID catch phrases like 'unprecedented times' that we're sick of hearing.

Clay finally gets a chance to meet up in studio with Avry Lewis-McDougall of Avry Sports.

50. Sean Keay
Sean Keay (Space Monkey) doesn't have to travel far to hop into the studio with Clay. The current Head of Development for Space Monkey chats about his early days at theScore, that time the app melted down during a World Cup draw, and the move to Toronto FC. You see, that's where Sean and Clay met. The two then chat about their first draft together, walking the line working for a team (and getting in trouble for things) and the pact they made if ever they were to leave MLSE. There's conversations about podcast creation, the digital world and trying to build a media company from the ground up before finishing with a now dated segment where they both make MLS Cup predictions.

49. Sean Fitz-Gerald
Sean Fitz-Gerald (The Athletic) stops by the studio for a long overdue catchup session with Clay. The two discuss their history in hockey, Sean's move from the newspaper world onto the frontier of the digital news age, and how life in one breath couldn't be tougher and in the very next completely turned for the better. Sean's first book Before the Lights Go Out is available for purchase October 1st at Chapters/Indigo, on Amazon and the publisher Penguin Random House.
84 minutes | Sep 23, 2019
48. Camila Gonzalez
Camila Gonzalez (TLN) pops by the studio for the most enlightening conversation with Clay. She’s traveled the world as a journalist, she’s then traveled it again as a pageant winner, she’s quick with a joke, takes the edge of things with a smirk, and will outsmart you around every turn. She’s a Columbian born, football juggling, tv talking, trilingual journalistic beauty queen (in fact the second Miss Universe Canada competitor we’ve had on the podcast) and the only person Clay knows to have ever asked the Prime Minister to prove his feminism during an interview.
89 minutes | Sep 16, 2019
47. John Molinaro
John Molinaro (Canadian Premier League) stops by the studio to chat with Clay about starting a call-in show, Canadian Premier League, Toronto FC's infamous championship season, and a five ingredient homemade pasta sauce that only takes 10 minutes.
78 minutes | Sep 9, 2019
46. Jeff Veillette
Jeff Veillette (The Faceoff Circle) is in the studio and it doesn’t take long for Clay to bring up their very first hockey project (16:47), life on HF Boards (22:24) and how it seems James Mirtle really legitimized the way hockey bloggers were viewed by the mainstream media community (25:18). The two reminisce about Jeff’s first press pass (31:07), their time with Dallas Eakins (42:19) and Jeff’s love for the Atlanta Thrashers (58:35). Things turn serious at the end as the two open up about their individual struggles with self confidence (1:05:57) and how finding a sense of community continues to help with that (1:10:01).
73 minutes | Sep 2, 2019
45. Chris Clarke
Chris Clarke (MWO Sports) drops by the newly renovated but not quite completed studio to discuss the most important of issues; does Sidney Crosby swear (9:13). It doesn't take long for this long time radio vet to tell stories of a time before message boards (14:13), what the first days of Prime Time Sports with Bob McCowan were like (20:24), that time when George Steinbrenner called (48:41) and playing hockey against Brian Burke (57:35). But beware, it's also a cautionary tale of never meeting your heroes (01:07:06).
94 minutes | Mar 27, 2019
44. Jerome Cheng
It’s a full house with Jerome Cheng (Count the Dings) in the studio and Kyle Perry as our guest co-host alongside Clay and Dylan. The guys are in to talk all things Marvel, but not before Clay and Jerome relive those early days together at TFC (10:08) and how Jerome first got linked with CTD (16:55). It’s then on to the good stuff as Jerome first pumps the Marvel Cinematic University podcast (37:44), Clay wants to break down Captain Marvel (43:44) and then the fearsome foursome dives into the MCU Big Move Bracket Challenge (1:00:34).
