WEDNESDAY SHOW RECAP
Wednesday’s show was Episode #33 of The Rod Pedersen Show! Here are the highlights:
- Rod and Dupes were joined in the bunker for The Warmup by sportscaster Derek “Duke” Meyers. In honour of show #33, Duke asked “Who’s your favourite all-time #33?” Rod’s answer was Patrick Roy, while Duke’s was Chris Szarka.
- The star of the show was Rider great John Chick who joined the program via video chat from his home in Jacksonville, FL. Chick is working as a personal trainer/coach at the facility he founded, Ironwill Gym. He said he’s busy raising his nine children with his wife Catherine, and is active in Jacksonville Jaguars alumni events.
- The chat spanned more than 20 minutes and Chick fielded all kinds of questions from the hosts as well as Facebook viewers. He said his career highlight was his sack and forced fumbled on Winnipeg’s Ryan Dinwiddie in the 2007 Grey Cup.
- Regina skip Braeden Moskowy joined the bunker to discuss his 2018-19 curling season in which his newly-formed super team out of Regina finished in the World Top 10. He lost out in the Provincial Tankard final but said it only fuelled them to come back better next season. He also groaned that he’s still recovering from Country Thunder in Craven on the weekend, and reported that a good time was had by all.
- The CFL on TSN’s Dustin Nielsen – also of TSN 1260 Radio in Edmonton – joined the show for a CFL chat and Oilers update.
- The crew spent a lot of time teeing up this weekend’s BC-Saskatchewan game at Mosaic Stadium, and how it’s a must-win for the Green & White.
- The daily Capital Auto Mall/Universal Collision Centre Poll asked which is Canada’s Game of the Week in the CFL? The runaway winner is Lions-Riders. 2nd-place in the voting is Ottawa-Winnipeg.
- Thursday will be a big show as the guest line-up includes Rider great Andy Fantuz, RP Show Director of Scouting Craig Smith, RP Show NFL/CFL Insider Tory Gurley and pundits Rob Vanstone and Kelly Remple.
