The PP1 Podcast

It's not too often where you can connect Nickelback, dill pickles and the Canucks together but today is a good day if you had those in your brain. Vancouver's goal scoring is stuck between a few players and then things get pretty dicey but thankfully the team as a whole is .500 so we can't get too mad at them. Ryan chats about his LA trip, his beef with Costco dill pickle salad and the...

A JVC Kaboom box with Big Shiny Tunes 2? A Panasonic Shockwave cd player? Pond hockey on Christmas morning? What brought in the most dough, what was THE present to win? Ryan Hank and Ted Wong are joined this week by Steve Fisher from Ball Hawks Podcast, Dan Machholz of Books and Bodychecks, and Jenna Fabulous joined the show. A special surprise was in store as well. With Christmas around the corne...

Not a week goes by that the Canucks aren't doing something ridiculous and this past week is no different. The PP1 Podcast covers the boys from Vancouver's unlikely run via OT wins and high scoring drama. Brendan Kobliuk aka JABO Vancouver joins Ryan this week as Ted is off and nothing is off limits: from Justin Bieber's fashion choices at Leafs games to Earthquake proof beds; we even s...

Life gets serious so sometimes we need an outlet and the Canucks are that outlet. The Sedins and Luongo are now in the Hockey Hall of Fame but Luongo isn't having his jersey retired by Vancouver. Why? We chat about the validity of martinis if they aren't in a glass and we get into the generational talents that have entered the league since the 05 lockout. Dudes and Guys returns and we go O...

The Canucks are faking themselves out by sprinkling in wins with their numerous losses and its cramping the style of the "Tank for Bedard" campaign. Grady Sas of Go Goat Sports! and more namely, Sekeres and Price, joins Ryan and Ted to chat the latest on Bo Horvat, who needs the dual NHLer commercial treatment to bump their game and what the preferred fan setting is in your car during the...

Everything seems to be ending but that's a good thing sometimes. Will the Canucks blow it all up and start over or will they continue to suck and delay the inevitable? We get into horrible ads on tv, catchy jingles in relation to Bo Horvat leaving and what we'd be cool with seeing as a return. Are draft picks more important than cap space and is there truly only one untouchable on this tea...

Slow Canucks week but not without its issues. Jim Rutherford throws the team under the bus, the Sedins and Luongo are in the HHOF and a book podcast tries to upset the podcast universe. We chat about how the Canucks need to take an L or at least half of one to get the rebuild started and that it needs to happen soon. Dudes and Guys returns and Ted goes off the board and isn't wrong. Tune in, c...

The Canucks have been losing but then some winning and now some winning again. Ted and Ryan cover the last week of meh from the Canucks and thankfully had some laughs along the way.

Dudes and Guys returns and with the amazing run the team is currently on, there's a plethora of options. We break down the Mikey DiPietro trade to Boston and how the Canucks still fail to hold onto dept...

The Vancouver Canucks are in a bad way to start the 2023 season but that isn't all that surprising. Through five games, they're 0fer and it looks like things are pretty broken. We cover other more fun topics like the new Reverse Retros, obviously the Canucks version, and even the new trade idea of sending away Bo Horvat. This team needs to win or it's going to be a struggle. Dudes and...

There is so much to love about the Vancouver Canucks this season and it starts with fresh faces, new management and a horrible special teams system. OK, not the last part. McDavid owned the Canucks in Game 1 but there was much to celebrate. Dudes and Guys returns and Ryan has a funny story about being shut down at the Rockets game. This is vintage PP1 Podcast.

The Canucks are almost done the preseason and the PP1 Podcast has positive things to say about the Canucks immediate future. Ted Wong and Ryan Hank cover the Canucks bright spots in the preseason like Kuzmenko, Pettersson and Tanner Pearson. Yup Tanner Pearson. We discuss who the Canucks leadership group should be but the WORST possible guys instead. It hits hard. The guys discuss who the Shohei O...

There is hockey to talk about. The Canucks are in hockey mode finally and we overreact to two periods of play. Kuzmenko, Pettersson, and Hughes on the right side? We tap Stephan Roget of Canucks Army for the guest spot and he gives us his predictions on the season and what we might expect from our blue and green squad. Everyone goes down the rabbit hole for EA Sports NHL soundtracks and well, GOB...

The PP1 Podcast is always ready to chat hockey but with the Canucks on the cusp of training camp and eventually preseason this week, we were ready to go!

We get into the Aaron Judge home run ball and what we'd ask for in return of giving it back. T...

Welcome back to the PP1 Podcast on the Dean Blundell Network partnered with Move Health and Wellness. We get into the JT Miller signing which apparently was two weeks ago and the feels on that, what it likely means and why we should just chill out. Tyler Motte signed with the Senators a...

In part two of the Canucks Multiverse, Ryan and Ted discuss the reality where Dan Cloutier makes the save on Nick Lidstrom in the 2002 playoffs and the Canucks actually advance and run the table. What does 2003 look like with a confident Nucks squad and how do they change their draft history? Lots to take in on this show.

Its not every day you get to chat with a legend. Jim Hughson joined the PP1 Podcast to chat about his career in broadcasting, his running hobby, the Fort St John Flyers and a little blockbuster you may have heard about: Air Bud. Jim goes on to chat about both parts of his career in baseball and hockey, the iconic "GREAT SAVE LUONGO" call and a few other things you may not have known about...

PP1 Podcast explored a universe where Wayne Gretzky actually becomes a Canuck. They dive into all the events that proceed the signing and some odd pop culture references as well. For whatever reason, a TON of Lonny Bohonos is involved. Presented in concert with Move Health and Wellness, Dean Blundell Network and Manscaped, this show hits hard and hits often. Does Leo DiCaprio still star in Titanic...

Hockey isn't hockey without PP1 Podcast. We have some edumacation for you with Dr John Lutz from Move Health and he gets us checked out so we can help ourselves, lets us know what injuries are common in the spring and the fall and maybe how to avoid them. We spiff on Reverse Retro jerseys, some insane burger reveals and hey, why not let everyone know about our secret.... Listen and you'll...

Just because summer doesn't have hockey doesn't mean we don't bring hockey to summer. Ted Wong and Ryan Hank welcome Dixon Ward formerly of the Vancouver Canucks and Buffalo Sabres to chat about getting into the NHL, the interview process, what Shane Wright brings to Seattle and how Dixon's son Taylor is in a great position to succeed with the Kings. In concert with Move Health and...

Da Beauty League returns and Brock Boeser is ready to go and the guys also chat about how great and how close things got to winning a championship. No spoil...

Its not every day you get Sean Warren, the man running the entire Area 51 network, on your show. We were able to chat with Sean for a bit about the upcoming Memorial Cup in Kamloops and the idea of Connor Bedard getting moved in his draft year to the Blazers. We get into the first few days of NHL free agency and how the Canucks sorted through the mess. Things got a little crazy when Dairy Queen tr...

The summer is usually when you see reruns or breaks from shows, at PP1 Podcast we keep it going strong. Rob Fai joins Ryan Hank to chat about his progression through multiple careers and how it's made him who he is today. So much to take in but a real great look into one of the great personalities of Vancouver entertainment.

While every other Canucks podcast has taken a break, we stride on and get the latest news we can google. The PP1 Podcast in concert with Dean Blundell Network and Move Health and Wellness bring you JT Miller trade talk and a few new destinations we thought of, who is the better player at their position compared to the next closest: Makar or McDavid and we give some love to the Sedins and Luongo go...

There might be a few Canucks named to the Hockey Hall of Fame as soon as next week and yet Henrik and Daniel Sedin STILL might have to prove themselves to make it in. Alex Mogilny deserves a nod as does Roberto Luongo and yet that may not happen. Andrei Kuzmenko is a Canuck and for once Vancouver wins the sweepstakes. Are we still salty about the too many men non call in the Stanley Cup Final? We&...
