There’s a particular kind of hockey talk that only comes from having lived it, and that’s exactly what you’ll find on Morning Cuppa Hockey. Hosts Jonny Lazarus and Colby Cohen bring their own distinct perspectives-forged from playing at multiple levels, including a Stanley Cup win-to the day’s biggest stories. Their conversations are less about delivering unanimous takes and more about digging into the nuances behind the headlines, the trends shaping the league, and those controversial plays that everyone is arguing about. This podcast thrives on that genuine back-and-forth; they know the game deeply, but they don’t always see it the same way. Alongside breaking down the news, they regularly pull back the curtain to introduce fascinating figures from around the hockey world, offering listeners a richer understanding of the sport’s characters and culture. It’s the kind of daily analysis that feels like a conversation with well-informed friends, perfect for starting your day. You can catch new episodes live Monday through Thursday, but the recorded podcast is always there for your morning routine, whenever you need that fix of authentic, experienced hockey insight.
