Episode 3462: Heated Rivalry, Ken’s Stats And Lies, Slot’s Season
Hit Canadian TV series Heated Rivalry, which centres on two gay professional ice hockey players – Canadian Shane Hollander and Russian Ilya Rozanov – who have a decade-long relationship, took Canada and the US by storm late last year, and arrived in this part of the world earlier this month to huge acclaim.
To chat to us about the series we welcome Kevin Penrose, one of the few openly gay male Gaelic footballers in the country, into studio.
A doctor has been in touch about some errors Ken made on Monday’s show.
Plus there’s Slot’s season, stats and lies and talking like a Russian.
