I was surprisingly hoping for JD Bunkis for some reason unknown even to me.

In saying that, congrats to Bukauskas and all, but I was hoping for someone with a bit more personality. Maybe Kyle will show a different side to him with the Podcast. Either way, I'll still give it a listen.

Hahaha I don’t know if anyone loves JD Bunkis more than JD Bunkis.

So looks like Kyle Bukkakke is going to be the new co-host of the 32 thoughts podcast. Although I don't mind the podcast, it will continue to be a bit dry but that's okay.

What have you been up to that autocorrect made this change?

Every year I say this is the year I see Bukauskas finally hit puberty?

Maybe we will see it this year…..

Yeah, I just listened to some of the pod today, I was surprised to see his name. Not someone I expected.

Not sure really who I expected, but I thought it was gonna be someone who's been embedded a bit more in the game, other than an ice level reporter.

I thought it was fine. I mainly listen to 32T for insider info and insight anyway. Friedman kinda bulldozed Kyle a few times but that should disappear as time goes on and Kyle asserts himself more.

Any speculation what happens to the Jeff Marek timeslot for hockey season?

I'm curious if they move Kypreos to that slot and resurrect Hockey Central at Noon with a revolving door of characters, and do something else for the drive time show.

I hope they don't touch Real Kyper and Bourne, the best Leafs related show there is at the time. Maybe move the timeslot, but otherwise leave it alone.

I would agree since I listen to it as a podcast. I don't care what time it airs, but keep the show the same.

Yeah just move it to noon. What the name is doesn’t matter but keep the guys like they are.

I like Kyper and Bourne, and seeing as I only listen via Spotify makes no difference to me if they take the Noon Slot or stay as is.

If a move were to be made, hopefully the Sportsnet Brass keeps it at Two Hours. Odd how all their Baseball shows don't seem get cut down the way the Hockey themed ones do so often do. Hockey is still King in this Market after all.
