What significant event is Joe Bowen being recognized for?
Hey, if you're traveling this spring, this summer, maybe for the playoffs to see your favorite team, we can't relate to that. Maybe you don't want to pay roaming fees. Definitely, actually. Yeah. You know what? Why would I even question it? Maybe. Yeah, no. And also, maybe you want your information encrypted so that, you know, sketchy Wi-Fi places, coffee shops, things like that, that you can't really trust because you don't really know. We got Saley for that, too, because they're backed by Nord Security, Nord VPN, all that stuff. And we want to give you a discount because here's the thing. eSIMs are sort of this crazy concept. And like I was trying to explain it to my mom, who's in Barbados this week.
And she was like. I don't get it still. I spent like 25 minutes on it.
SIM cards are going to be a thing of the past.
Yes. Yeah. Like I got a new phone and there's no SIM card in it. She's like, what? So here's what you do. You download the app. Jesse, Maddie, you used this last year.

with your host, Steve Dangle, Adam Wylde, and Jesse Blake.
Hello, everybody. Listen, I want to start today's show with a shout out to Joe Bowen. We're not getting into the Leafs right away because let's be honest, they're not the top story. But Joe Bowen should be. And, you know, we've obviously we started here as Leaf fans. We still are Leaf fans. The show is sort of the NHL through a few Leaf fans eyes. Joe had his last game in Toronto yesterday after 44 years of calling the Toronto Maple Leafs. Phenomenal play caller. Heart and soul sort of guy. And 44 years is a really, really, really long time. And there he is. You know, they gave him a round of a sorry, standing ovation at Scotiabank Arena last night. Jesse, you were there. What was the emotion like?
It was definitely emotional. Everybody pregame. That was the thing they're talking about. They let Joe Bowen do the walk in with the players where they take the shot of their outfits when they walk in. Joe Bowen did one of those, which is awesome. He was clearly he was around the team all year, obviously, and they had the Joe Bowen night earlier in the year. And then now is just the big send off at home. And he has one more game to go. They are sending him to Ottawa to do that game. Something Rogers has not done since COVID, where they send the radio broadcast on the road. They're sending Joe Bowen there for the final broadcast of his career. I love that.
So he's he's obviously in the broadcast booth. The press row is right underneath. How close were you to this?
I'm a little bit over on the other side. I'm where the TV guys are more than the other radio.
So you can hear Forsling.
Yes. Yeah. Yeah. I can hear him when he gets excited.
I can hear 11 goal game.
Hey, what do you say? Yeah, man. That was still one of my favorite interviews we ever did. We never got the chance to interview Joe Bowen, although I did when I was with the I did the league's podcast for a couple of years. and um very very nice man his his son sean was on there too he also works for maple leaf sports um and joe uh just deserves uh all the love and all the shout outs i'm just sad that they never got him a damn cup yep um he did quit playing hockey because he wanted to be a goalie wanted to be the next johnny bauer and i think did what all of us listen if we could if any of us were great athletes we would much rather be playing the game than talking about the game Right. Like that's kind of the that's the secret thing about media.
Joe understood that it wasn't going to happen for him.
