On today’s episode, Rachel & Russ are joined by legendary Philadelphia Flyers broadcaster Jim Jackson. We get into his favorite call, working with Brian Boucher, Keith Jones’ jump to the Front Office, Danny Briere & the rest of the leadership group, his broadcasting career, his take on the game, technology, and how it’s changed over the years, Flyers Development Camp observations and more. Plus we react to what Garnet Hathaway had to say about his new contract with the Flyers.

Right off the bat, Russ finds a reason to rant about Tortorella and criticize Hathaway. I get that he's not a Flyers fan, but, presumably, the viewers on this podcast are fans. Negative, negative, negative. Credit to Rachel for trying to maintain the positive and stating that she has a positive view of Hathaway's role and doesn't find the extension to be the Tortorella contrived horror that Russ does.
