Youngblood and Hockey Fanatics

Ashton James (Dean Youngblood), Blair Underwood (Blane Youngblood) and Chris Nelson (Hockey Coordinator for Youngblood) join host Jesse Cohen to talk about Youngblood, a retelling of an old hockey classic. The quartet discuss the challenges of reimagining an older movie for a modern audience as well as making a sports film that passes the authenticity test. Then Dave Foley (Kids In The Hall, News Radio, A Bugs Life) joins the program to talk about his newest offering Hockey Fanatics, where Dave travels to North American cities exploring hockey fandom, meets superfans, discusses their teams, tours memorabilia collections, and discovers community impact.
