TallCanSports Ep315: with Ian Mendes of TSN
Welcome to another work week TCA-holes. Matt and Rob are back in studio to help you kickstart your Monday and they're joined by a terrific guest.
Don't forget to help out the show by leaving a rating and a review of the podcast on iTunes.
The guys are joined today by Ian Mendes of TSN 1200 in Ottawa. It's a super fun episode of the show where we go in-depth on Ian's career, the roll of a sports journalist, why the Ottawa Senators management is mad at Ian, some of his past assignments including his fantastic column in Today's Parent, which current NHL Playoff series are standing out to him, whether Mitch Marner or Erik Karlsson will carry the higher AAV next season, who is likely to be behind the bench for the Sens in October, Tiger Woods finally winning another Major, why Sean Avery is suddenly a character in the Leafs/Bruins series, Mendes' struggles to get comfortable with past co-hosts and his adjustment to his newest partner, the responsibility that comes with being invited in to his listener's lives everyday and just so much more.
Ian couldn't have been more generous with his time and his insights on the show and we can't thank him enough for joining us today. It made for a terrific conversation covering all kinds of ground.
