Ep.261 - Bergeron to the Rafters! 19.06.2026

Ep.260 - Worst Case Scenario Stanley Cup 04.06.2026

Aight folks, this is the nightmare finals matchup -- at least for one of us. There is light at the end of the tunnel, however.. because the Leaf's may be choosing between Peter Laviolette or Patrick Roy for their head coach vacancy. Either way -- we're going to LOVE making fun of that. GET IN. Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online. Covering all things #NHLBruins  OFFICIAL CHIRP LINE: (8...

Ep.259 - The Clean 30 21.05.2026

With Thomas unavailable much of this week -- Andrew and Ian volunteered to touch on a few topics surrounding the NHL playoffs, drama with coaches, and perhaps a few notes on the Boston Bruins. Their goal was to keep it to a "clean 30" minute episode.. so I present to you.. one hour and 16 minutes. Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online. Covering all things #NHLBruins and beyond. OFFICIAL...

Ep.258 - THE GOLD EPISODE 15.05.2026

Ep.257 - 2025-2026 POST MORTEM 07.05.2026

Aight folks, it's our yearly eulogy episode. Early than we wanted, later than we would have expected last off-season. Lots to unpack here.

Ep.256 - Talk Ya Shit, Pasta 01.05.2026

Aight folks, the Bruins have extended the series to Game 6 on the back of Jeremy Swayman with a nod to Pastrnak with a huge OT winner. Can they solve their playoff home woes and force this back to Buffalo? Pasta seems to think so. Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online.

Ep.255 - Sabre Rattled 23.04.2026

Aight folks --  I'm typing this from my hotel lobby and I did not edit this any further than tossing the intro and "mf go b's" outro on the audio file I was sent. So who knows, this might just be an hour + of Andrew and Ian dogwalking me and calling me "Daddy" in a multitude of unflattering ways. However, my hope is that they talk about this BRUINS/SABRES PLAYOFF SERI...

Ep.254 - PLAYOFF F'N HOCKEY 17.04.2026

Aight folks, Thomas and Andrew are back and have some thoughts about the upcoming series against the Buffalo Sabres, the seventh player award, the value of an elite netminder, meatballs and swearing children. PLUS YOUR VOICEMAILS. GET IN. Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online. Covering all things #NHLBruins | OFFICIAL CHIRP LINE: (860) 506-5444 presented by @SeatGeek, use promo code SHORTSHIFTPOD...

Ep.253 - JAMES HAGENS IS A BOSTON BRUIN w/ Court Lalonde of Bruins Diehards 09.04.2026

Aight folks, Ian is in Italy indulging in more than just meatballs -- so we have brought in longtime friend, host of Bruins Diehards and knower of puck, Court Lalonde. OBVIOUSLY there's some big news to discuss on this episode. No, not the four game losing streak. NO not the limp towards clinching a wild card. We're of course going to talk about the news that dropped just hours before re...

Ep.252 - The Best Week Of Bruins Hockey 02.04.2026

Alternate title: That's MRS. Ian Bonner To You! Yeah -- we're going to talk a lot about the Bruins recent stretch of play of course. We'll talk Arvidsson, Zacha, Sturm and much more.. but this episode is for our boy Ian who's just hours away from the biggest day of his young life. We're going to the playoffs and this idiot is gonna miss it. But.. worth it. Cynically acclai...

Ep.251 - HAGENS UPDATE, and an Unrelated Victory Lap 27.03.2026

Aight folks, the SSP is back again this week and there's no shortage of James Hagens discourse to spew out into the podwaves. We slap some lazy takes down and set reasonable expectations going forward. What percentage chance does he end up in Boston? (pssst.. it'll happen, just breathe). Andrew wants to make sure it's mentioned multiple times that he's tied for first in the pre...

Ep.250 - WE AIN'T LEAVIN' 19.03.2026

TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY TIMES. Quite the milestone for us, and what better way to celebrate than to talk about a team that cannot protect a two goal lead if their lives depended on it! 4 out of 6 points on the road is a win though, right? We have to talk about Andrew Peeke. We have to discuss A LOT of things. Plus your VOICEMAILS, our PREDICTIONS, and much more. GET IN. Cynically acclaimed. Incredib...

Ep.249 - Literally DEADline 12.03.2026

Aight folks, serious question that we have to ask eachother -- did the Bruins win or lose at the deadline? And who were the biggest winners and losers? What are the Toronto Maple Leafs actually thinking? VOICEMAILS, PREDICTIONS and MORE. GET IN. Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online.

Ep.248 - Trade Winds! (The Reverse Episode) 05.03.2026

Aight folks -- we're doing this one a little differently.. but there's plenty of trade discourse to go over as we approach the deadline. Make sure you set your calendars for the live deadline stream with Ian and Andrew over on the Low Qual channel as well. But here you're here now! Predictions! Voicemails! GET IN! Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online. Covering all things #NHLBruin...

Ep.247 - Getting Back To Bruins 26.02.2026

Aight folks. Thomas, Ian and the ol' size queen Andrew are back and talking Boston Bruins hockey. Yeah, of course we're going to touch on the golden sweep of US Olympic hockey -- and yeah we're going to talk about the other shit too. Once we put a bow on that, we talk some prospects.. although not nearly as much as Ian did on the most recent Low Qaulity Bruins Fan youtube (like comm...

Ep.245 - Penalties Kill 06.02.2026

The jerseys are cursed, first and foremost. Burn them. Beyond that -- stay out of the damn box, please.

We talk about the McAvoy hit, the new Miracle doc, olympics, Gavin McKenna and YOUR VOICEMAILS. GET IN. Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online. Covering all things #NHLBruins |...

Ep.244 - Craig Berube Fought A Bear 29.01.2026

Aight folks, add 'Geekie is BACK' to your list of things you love to see. Second straight 30-goal season AND COUNTING. This episode is going to cover a number of topics including but not limited to who's a candidate for an injury call-up right now, is Arvidsson going to stick around past the deadline, three games left before the Olympic break -- are we excited yet? Plus YOUR VOICEMA...

Ep.243 - The Streisand Effect 22.01.2026

Aight folks, another episode of the Short Shift Podcast and of course we're recording after the win streak gets broken in blowout fashion. Are we going to overreact? No. There's things we didn't like of course but it's hard to complain about this recent stretch that Sturm and his Bruins have put together. There's plenty to unpack about trades and speculation surrounding po...

Ep.242 - Belts To Asses 13.01.2026

Aight folks, another episode and another streak -- this one positive! 5 of 6 including three in a row at home.

Ep.241 - New Year, New Us 06.01.2026

Aight folks, yeah, so we didn't post an episode last week with the holidays and all that. I want to apologize.. to absolutely no one. We needed a break, I'm sure we all did. Especially after losing game after game after game. Now we're back with the first drop of 2026 and we're riding a two-game win streak.. streak? yeah sure. We talk Fraser Minten, surprises, disappointments,...

Ep.240 - Please Don't Ruin Christmas 23.12.2025

Aight folks. Ian is out of action as he recovers from canine venereal disease (speculation), but we have Ace from @2PadStackPod and he's just as annoyed with the last few games as we are. Joonas Korpisalo is becoming a problem, Andrew Peeke out here taking penalty shots, David Pastrnak is bare-knuckle brawling. This team is limping into the holidays and need a big dub against Montreal. We dis...

Ep.239 - It's Pronounced "Kolyachonok", Of Course 18.12.2025

This week is a very special episode where for 1 hour and 31 minutes we try to pronounce "Vladislav Kolyachonok". Perhaps we sprinkle in some talk about Morgan Geekie, Casey Mittelstadt, or maybe a rant from Thomas on how much the stadium series jerseys are trash. ALSO; voicemails, predictions. GET IN. Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online. Covering all things #NHLBruins | OFFICIAL CHIRP...

Ep.238 - I'm A Marco Sturm Guy 11.12.2025

Aight folks! The Boston Bruins are on a three-game win steak and it's all the more sweeter because two of those dubs came against Jim Montgomery's lowly St. Louis Blues. Binnington only had the sack to show up for one beatdown -- but I digress. David Pastrnak is back after a five game absence.. and Marco Sturm had an interesting landing spot for him upon his return. I dug it. Voicemails!...
