On a special holiday episode, Virk and Demers admit the impossible: they were both wrong about something. They also discuss the ongoing soap opera in Vancouver as well as what's the deal with the recently suspended (again) Matt Rempe. Then heavy metal legend Brian Slagel (18:11) stops by to talk about the colliding worlds of hockey and hard rock, not to mention the time he hung out with Metallica AND Jaromir Jagr. Finally, with so many players hitting the beach during the NHL holiday break Jason explains why Cabo is overrated.

With the holiday season in full swing, Adnan Virk and Jason Demers discuss a great night in Edmonton, the theory behind all these drones in New Jersey and why the NBA Cup is ridiculous. Then former NHL player Nate Thompson (21:30) shares his powerful message about mental health as well as his connection to the Jewish faith. Naturally, Adnan weighs in on the recent Academy Awards shortlist announcement and Jason shares plenty of stories about the time he thought he was drafted (he wasn't, yet) and the time he thought he was Jewish (he wasn't).
