We had Jessica and Emma from Overtime Chicks join us for an electric 30-minute chat covering a little bit of everything in the hockey world.⚡️ From breaking down their interview with Sean Avery and reliving some of his most legendary moments, to debating the ultimate NHL rat: Avery or Marchand?🍎 We also touched on Detroit’s early-season success, dream podcast guests, and even got the girls to define the term “puck bunny” (their way). Afterwards, the boys dive into some Bruins talk — from Marat Khusnutdinov’s swagger and Hampus Lindholm returning to form, to the impact of Nikita Zadorov and Boston’s recent heater. All in all, a fun mix of chirps, insight, and pure hockey brain.

On this episode the boys get into news around the league, the youth and up and coming teams buzzing, and the general growth of the game in the last few years. We discuss the difference between retooling and rebuilding, for the Bruins what that looks like, and how other teams have done it. Crosbys dryer, Bedards sick release, and some other topics arise. Tune in. 

On episode 28 of That's Gross, the boys discuss some real world topics; careers and lifestyles. They then move on to talk about the Bruins 5 game slide, Brad Marchands' return, the emotional display from him, and then the bizarre bounce that lost them the game. League wide topics include Warsofskys' comments about trading a kid for a win, the Red Wings buzzing, Stolarz comments about his team defense, and more. Future content and merch plans too. Tune in and hope you enjoy this one. 

The boys are back and the Bruins are buzzing to start the year and talk hockey. We break down Boston’s 3–1 start — from Elias Lindholm’s smooth fit to Mittelstadt’s impact, Zacha’s strong play, both goalies holding it down, and the depth finally showing up. Powerplay? Clicking. PK? Locked in. Vibes? Immaculate. Mike’s fresh off an Italian adventure and shares some travel chaos (including the art of not talking on planes), plus we get into the hunt for a new car and some quick hits from around the NHL. It’s a little Bruins therapy, a little life talk, and a whole lotta gross.

With our fearless host Mike off exploring the pasta, wine, and history of Italy for the next couple of weeks, Jake and JB are stepping up to keep the ship sailing—and the takes flowing. Just because one of us is living the dream doesn’t mean the hockey world slows down, and there’s a lot to cover this week. In this episode, the boys dive deep into the latest buzz around the league, starting with some major recent signings that have already started shaping the upcoming season. From surprising contract numbers to teams making bold moves, Jake and JB give their unfiltered reactions and what it all might mean heading into the first puck drop. Closer to home, they break down what the Boston Bruins' Game 1 roster might look like. Will the lineup bring the grit, speed, and skill fans are hoping for? Or are there still question marks that need answers? Whether you're a die-hard B’s fan or just love solid hockey talk, there’s plenty here for you. And of course, it wouldn’t be an episode without a few classic stories from the rink—including some pickup hockey moments that were equal parts chaotic, hilarious, and painfully relatable. Expect laughs, questionable takes, and that signature “gross hockey boys” energy we’ve built this show on. Thanks as always for tuning in—we appreciate every one of you for riding with us. We’re fired up for the season ahead, and even with Mike overseas, the hockey talk doesn’t stop. Let’s go! Oh and ya, keep an eye out for some more Gross Hockey Merch...

The preseason is underway and the boys are buzzing. Mike, JB, and Jake are back – and this time we’ve got our buddy "Meis" joining the show, bringing some stats, betting lines, and plenty of hot takes. We kick things off with early thoughts on preseason action before diving into season predictions across the NHL, including which teams could surprise and who might fall off. We get into the Bruins – what they look like heading into the year, and why there’s definitely “Sum 2 Prove in Boston.” Then we go around the league with breakout player picks, too early Cup Final predictions, and bold calls on teams that haven’t made it recently but could sneak in this year. The guys also chop it up about players labeled as those who “can’t win” – like Matthews and Marner – and debate whether that narrative is fair, if other sports have similar storylines, or if it’s something unique to hockey. On top of that, we mix in some laughs: The biggest scumbags in sports history (inside and outside hockey) The dumbest things we’ve ever done, and the learning moments that came with them Packed with hockey talk, betting chatter, and plenty of Gross humor, this one sets the stage for the season ahead.

Mike, JB, and Jake are back from Warrior Ice Arena with fresh thoughts on Bruins training camp and players who stood out. We talk why people outside the organization are so low on this team, and why they could be missing something. Are the Bruins closer to contending than people think? We dive into potential roster surprises, expectations, and the team’s eventual path to a Cup. We also break down the NHL rumor mill — from Kaprizov, McDavid, to hypothetical blockbuster trades for Crosby or Eichel tied to James Hagens, to which moves could actually make sense. Bruins Be a GM Mode: Would you trade Hagens for a superstar center who can step in now? And of course, we talk Paul “BizNasty” Bissonnette — not just his rise from glue guy in the locker room to legendary media voice, but the bigger question: how good of a playing career would it take for you NOT to trade it for Biz’s path? With his post-career run, personality, and how much he’s changed the game, it’s a debate that sparks laughs and perspective. Bruins fans, NHL rumors, and BizNasty debates — this one’s loaded.

In Episode 23 of That’s Gross, Mike, JB, and Jake are joined by Cesar Lucero — better known online as BigCeaz or Cesar Inspires. A passionate Florida Panthers fan and social media personality, Cesar has turned his battle with osteogenesis imperfecta, a rare bone disease, into a platform to entertain, motivate, and inspire thousands. We talk through his incredible journey as a fan and a person: from getting pulled on stage at Miami’s iconic 11 nightclub by Matthew Tkachuk, to partying with the Stanley Cup champions, to his hilarious back-and-forth with Paul Bissonnette. Cesar shares how hockey has given him some of the best moments of his life, all while spreading his message of living strong and taking things “one shift at a time.” This episode has it all — laughs, storytelling, and plenty of inspiration — even if it meant reliving some of Boston’s lowest hockey memories through Cesar’s eyes. 🔗 Check out Cesar: Instagram: @cesar_inspires The Big Ceaz Show & Cats and Rats Podcast (all platforms) Website: cesarlucero.com Sit back, relax, and enjoy this fun, uplifting conversation with a one-of-a-kind hockey fan.    

In Episode 22, we dive deep into the offseason storylines buzzing around the NHL. We kick things off with the Bruins’ captain’s practice and what it means with the season just around the corner. From there, we tackle expectations for Boston’s upcoming year, potential breakout candidates, and — because it still stings — another look back at the 2023 collapse. The conversation shifts league-wide as we hit on the Panthers, Oilers, Eichel, and McDavid, and what we expect from the 2025/26 NHL season. To wrap it up, we debate and rank our Top 10 NHL Players — breaking down what really defines the “best” in the game. It’s a bit of a rollercoaster episode, but that’s what makes it fun.

In this week’s episode, we sit down with Tony Sauce, a Massachusetts-born hockey creator who’s taking the YouTube hockey world by storm. Tony grew up playing hockey all the way through college, and now films his men’s league journey as his team battles their way up the divisional ranks — bringing fans along for every gross goal, hilarious chirp, and scrappy battle on the ice. Tony’s story started behind a controller, creating NHL video game content. But that passion inspired him to lace up the skates again, hit the rink, and capture the real thing for the hockey community. With a mix of raw game footage, locker room laughs, and all the ups and downs of men’s league hockey, his content is as authentic as it gets. We talk about his playing career, his journey from video games to the rink, his most unforgettable stories, what it’s really like filming men’s league chaos, and where he plans to take his content in the future. Sit back, crack a cold one, and enjoy the ride. 🎧 Follow Gross Hockey for more: IG / TikTok / YouTube / FB → @thatsgrosshockey

Coming in mid August.  Then at 28:04, we’re joined by a beauty of a guest — Nick Turcotte, head of Turcotte Hockey School, a family-run business that’s been developing hockey players for over 50 years. For the next hour and a half, Nick dives deep into everything from how to teach hockey IQ, USA Hockey, the roots of roller hockey, what the school really instills in players, and the mindset it takes to make it.
