| 2/24/26 |  Ep. 222 Friends and Rivals Podcast: O No Canada! | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 222 AND USA! USA! USA! LFG!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did you see when they brought out Goudreau's kids? I'm not crying, YOU'RE CRYING! And what about that Connor McDavid? Always the bridesmaid never the bride AMIRITE! You can find the rest of this script at all-original-dad-jokes.ca or just stick around to listen to FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 222! | 1h 10m 52s | ||||||
| 2/17/26 |  Ep. 221 Friends and Rivals Podcast: Tom Wilson is Still a Piece of S*** | It's EPISODE 221 OF THE FRIENDS AND RIVALS PODCAST and we are all over this Olympic Hockey thingamajig. Can anyone stop the USA Women or the Canadian Men? We'll find out soon if anyone can touch either of these heavy favorites. Then we move on to find out what Sweden actually does well. Tom and Nick get into the nitty gritty with rules about Curling as Bill contemplates suicide all on FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 221! | 1h 08m 16s | ||||||
| 2/10/26 |  Ep. 220 Friends and Rivals Podcast: WHERE'S QUINN??? | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 220 and it's the return of your favorite game "Where's Quinn Hughes?" Apparently, the Devils knew all along. The Islanders and Penguins slide into the Olympic Break with playoff-dream momentum, while the Rangers and Devils race to stack the Sharks' roster down the stretch. It'll all make sense, sort of, when you listen to FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 220! | 44m 45s | ||||||
| 2/3/26 |  Ep. 219 Friends and Rivals Podcast: Jonny Lazarus joins the guys! | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 219 and we have an actual hockey expert join us, Mr. Jonny Lazarus! Wait...I thought WE were hockey experts. In truth, when we get to talk to a real expert we all realize that the rest of us suck something awful. So tune in for some actual intelligent insight because it's so frickin' rare on this show. Honestly. You know, the more I type this episode synopsis, the less good I feel about myself. It's a darn good thing no one reads these. But if you are still reading, you just have to trust me that @JLazzy23 is awesome and this is a great episode, the 219th FRIENDS AND RIVALS! | 1h 18m 16s | ||||||
| 1/27/26 |  Ep. 218 Friends and Rivals Podcast: And It's Over! | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 218 and if you blinked, you missed it! Tight 45? Try a tight FORTY! We give you the low down on the down low with the Penguins surging, the Devils rebounding, and the Islanders floating. We don't talk much about the Rangers who are um...dead last in the East. But the good news is that they wrote a letter, and if your team can't win, the least that they can do is keep in touch. So listen (it's truly not a huge commitment this week I promise) to FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 218! | 37m 11s | ||||||
| 1/20/26 |  Ep. 217 Friends and Rivals Podcast: Rangers Prove That Someone In the Organization Can Write | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 217 and the Rangers write their fans a Dear John We Suck Letter. The Devils suck but don't choose to publicize it, the Islanders have an inconsistent week, and the Penguins face the harsh reality that they are a playoff contender. Then we hear from Tina Turnover dating past on FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 217! | 1h 22m 01s | ||||||
| 1/13/26 |  Ep. 216 Friends and Rivals Podcast: It's Not Worth Losing If You Can't Lose Big! | It's EPISODE 216 of the FRIENDS AND RIVALS PODCAST, your Gulden Glob winner of the Best Podcast of 2025! The Rangers lose BIG to the Bruins, the Devils lose BIG to the Islanders, the Islanders win BIG against the Devils, and the Penguins lose small. We discuss the contracts that have to go, the trades that never happened, lazy Alexei Lafreniere, retired numbers, Nick Lidstrom, Pierre Turgeon, Nikki Glazer, every Hughes brother, Artemi Panarin, Nike skates, hockey cards, the Playfair family, AI accuracy, Trading Places, ugly sweaters, (sorry I have to cut this short - character limit in the description!) all on FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 216! | 1h 19m 30s | ||||||
| 1/6/26 |  Ep. 215 Friends and Rivals Podcast: Audi Drivers Unite! | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 215 and I'm fancy as all hell, just look at my car! The Rangers and Devils frustrate Tom and Steve, but the Penguins and Islanders have Billy and Nick dreaming of a 1st round playoff matchup! Sure the entire East is separated by 10 points and every team is over .500 somehow, but a couple of points halfway through the season sure give some of us a lot of confidence and some a sense of hopelessness. That's right, this is an unnecessarily philosophical FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 215! | 1h 21m 06s | ||||||
| 12/23/25 |  Ep. 214 Friends and Rivals Podcast: Jolly Old Saint Sid | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 214 and there's a new #1 scorer in Penguins history, and his name is Sidney Crosby! But everything else about the Penguins sucks. The Islanders take a hit this week, the Devils have a Pop Tart in the house, and the Rangers enjoy some time away from home. We do our FAR version of Twas the Night Before Christmas and if you're not going to YouTube for that then you're missing out. Merry Christmas from FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 214! | 1h 26m 27s | ||||||
| 12/17/25 |  Ep. 213 Friends and Rivals Podcast: Most of Us Are Kind of Annoyed | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 213 and wait...WTF happened to 212? Anyhow, Tom and Bill have a Misery-Battle, Steve laments what might have been with a full set of Hugheses, and Nick celebrates a few moments of being at the top. So if you want to hear annoyed men, this is the episode for you, FRIENDS AND RIVALS 213! | 1h 07m 06s | ||||||
| 12/2/25 |  Ep. 211 Friends and Rivals Podcast: Call Me Beth | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 211 and if you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain, causing you to leave a wet towel on the ground, then THIS is the podcast for you! The Rangers spiral and look for answers at every level, the Islanders cool off and get some tough injury news, the Penguins get their full team back together, and the Devils keep on grooving without the help of Tate McRae's boyfriend. And we bring it all to you in a tight forty...eight? We'll take it! So experience the RENOWNED FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 211! | 49m 40s | ||||||
| 11/26/25 |  Ep. 210 Friends and Rivals Podcast: Rangers To Hire Ken Spatchcock | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 210. Friends and Rivals is our name, and Spatchcocking is our game! As we prepare for Thanksgiving, two of us are thankful for our teams I guess. And then the other two root for the Rangers and Penguins. The Isles have a homerun road trip, the Devils battle on without their top player and his "cut hand" while he is comforted by Tate McRae, and the Rangers and Penguins have no big wins and no hot team girlfriends and no players almost cutting off fingers. It's so dull for us. But you'll have a blast listening to FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 210! | 1h 09m 19s | ||||||
| 11/19/25 |  Ep. 209 Friends and Rivals Podcast: Ready, Set, Go! | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 209 and our set was built with plenty of time to spare. We let you know what we're craving every day, then get into the Islanders' week of overtime heroics, the Penguins' weekend in Sweden, and the Devils' luck going from bad to worse to a severed finger. And don't miss our Tom Harkness, THIS IS YOUR LIFE! segment which we had to have in the absence of the actual Tom Harkness. So do something great for your own life and listen to FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 209! | 43m 20s | ||||||
| 11/4/25 |  Ep. 207 Friends and Rivals Podcast: Some People Call Us Sexy! | It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 207. Does that get you excited? There's NOTHING wrong with our eyes. Confused? Me too. But there's no confusion about how hot Matthew Schaefer has started, how bad the Rangers have been at home, how many players have contributed to the Penguins' hot start, and how much of a disappointment Alexander Holz was to Steve. So check out the sexiest podcast FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 207! | 1h 22m 51s | ||||||
