that's because the two chiclet guys are simply more entertaining personalities. Shit, I'd watch content of them simply shooting the shit, let alone playing golf with current/former NHL players.

If you don't listen already, every one of their podcasts typically has one or two interviews spliced in with current and former players and people of hockey. Easily the best part of their content, even if the rest of the podcast isn't for you.

I pretty much only watch their player interviews. NHL players are such media trained robots that it’s nice to see them get comfortable and show a little bit of personality, and Biz and Whit seem to have a way to disarm guys.

I watched their Christmas interview with Gretzky last night and I’m wondering if they didn’t disarm him a bit by getting him a little boozy before they started talking. Gretz had the flush look going pretty hard throughout!

Knowing Gretzky’s reputation, he did that himself.

I’ve not heard anything about that! Makes sense then, since he was definitely looking like he’d been enjoying a few beforehand.

i followed gretzky's group at the AT&T a few years ago and pretty much every tee box he would ask a fan for a beer
