9ES337: Determined Nondeterminism

by jorn on May 22, 2025 at 11:08 pm

It seems that every single year around this time we get to have an episode devoted to the postseason demise of the Toronto Maple Leafs. It also seems like there is always a fun new statistic available to dunk on the Maple Leafs in whole new ways.

This year? It’s that Brad Marchand is hilariously 5-0 against the Maple Leaf in Game 7. That doesn’t seem possible. But it’s the Maple Leafs, so of course it is. Or how about how there is now talk of blowing up the team and “retooling” or whatever but they have ZERO first round draft picks until 2028? That’s right, for the next three drafts the Maple Leafs will not have a first round pick. They went all in on this team and this team cannot get the job done.

Anyways, since we were having too much fun dunking on the Maple Leafs we decided to take things down a notch by talking about Kanye West being a Nazi, P Diddy being a disgusting human being and the Hockey Canada Trial that is also pretty disgusting. Can’t be having too much fun out there.

Keith also saw Thunderbolts* and it was pretty good.

Meanwhile – over on Garbage Time, we talk about Daredevil: Born Again, the Krakoan Age comics and the “Three Body Problem” on Netflix. This naturally leads to Jono proving that free will exists by virtue of physics. Bet you weren’t expecting that now were you? Finally, we fantasy cast the FaceOff sequel that we all so desperately need.

9ES297: Rainbow Tape

Seriously though – imagine being so uncertain of your values as an organization that you thought putting a ban on the colour of tape of hockey players were allowed to use was a good idea. What kind of out of touch garbage people were sitting around a conference room table and legitimately thinking “boy – we need to make sure none of these professional sport-boys use pride tape on their sticks.” Won’t somebody please think of the children!

There’s a part in this episode where Jon suggests that some of his neighbours have gone too far in their Halloween decorations. Decorations are too gruesome and intense! Something must be done. That’s right, the same person who watched Salo and Thanatomorphose multiple times is now asking his neighbours to calm down with the gory Halloween displays. Won’t somebody please think of the children!

The other big topic of this show has to do with the absolute garbage names the PWHL seem to have selected for their inaugural teams.We get into the whole list in the episode but let’s just say I can’t imagine Little Timmy will be too excited to wear a “Montreal Echo” jersey when he heads out to the local skating rink this winter. Won’t somebody please think of the children!

Meanwhile over on Garbage Time, Jono watched that Netflix documentary series about American Gladiators and honestly I just want to know whether or not Laser is ok or not. I’m pretty sure he’s still alive but I’m not going to look it up in case he isn’t. We also get into the age old debate of Marvel vs DC. Keith is reading a LOT of Marvel right now and while it seems to all be pretty good it certainly seems that the “highs” of DC are significantly higher. You be the judge! Enjoy!
