EPISODE 46 : KURTIS GABRIEL

Kurtis Gabriel joins us for one of the most powerful conversations we’ve had yet. A hockey journey sparked by tragedy, built through adversity, and carried all the way to the NHL against all odds. Known as one of the game’s toughest heavyweight fighters, Kurtis opens up about the reality that the mental battles off the ice were often heavier than the opponents he fought on it. From the pressure of carrying an identity in professional hockey, to navigating mental health, purpose, and life after the game, this episode is raw, honest, and real. What makes Kurtis’ story so impactful is how he has transformed pain into purpose, using his platform, the Fight Plan Podcast, and his voice across media to unite the hockey community and break down the stigma surrounding mental health. This is more than a hockey interview. This is a conversation about resilience, identity, healing, and using your story to help others feel less alone. Massive respect to Kurtis for continuing to push the culture forward and showing the next generation that strength is found in vulnerability too. This is LIFE.

EPISODE 44 : LINDY MCLEOD

LIVE FROM MOOSE JAW Some episodes stay on track… this one never had a chance. We sat down with Lindy McLeod, the personality behind Live From Moose Jaw, and were honored to be joined by a voice straight out of the great north—Saskatchewan. The conversation instantly turned into pure chaos—in the best way. No script, no filter, no structure… just real hockey talk, wild stories, and the kind of energy that feels like you’re back in the locker room with the guys. Lindy has built something different. It’s raw, unpredictable, and unapologetically honest—leaning into the moments most people would cut out. That’s exactly why it works. This episode is funny, unfiltered, and completely off the rails… but underneath it all, it’s a real look at the culture, the people, and the stories that make the game what it is.
