Summary

Matt Pennie is here and we have a grassroots episode for Pennie to take the lead. Overtime Elite has signed four players, all of whom are very interesting long-term prospects. Sam lets Pennie explain them, while they talk through the Overtime Elite program a bit and try to figure out where it's headed. Additionally, we run through Alperen Sengun, who continues to build buzz due to his terrific Turkish League playoffs. Then, we talk Pennie recruiting stories, and he gives a beauty. Finally, Sam and Pennie go deep into Mare of Easttown, explaining why we love the show and giving our theories on what happens. That is a very spoiler-ridden conversation, and one that we give ample warning to for people to turn off if they haven't seen the show yet. It starts at around the 55:00 mark.

0:36.8	And I will be having a meltdown as Tristan Jari decides to pass the puck directly to the islanders and then have what looked like a borderline seizure trying to poke check someone from 50 feet away.
0:50.2	So that's where my brain's at.
0:52.2	It's going well.
0:52.8	Yeah.
0:53.4	My funny Pittsburgh Penguin story is I grew up outside of Boston, which I probably beat up and mentioned too much.
0:59.8	But I was also a frontrunner.
1:01.6	I was a big Mario Lemieux fan back in the day.
