Episodes

Ep 909 - Slump

This week, we're talking about how the Bruins are playing after the All Start break. Their 7-game homestand was not as successful as they or we would have liked. Will their luck change this next week on the road?

Feb 21, 20241 hr 1 min

Ep 908 - Heiny Hatty And No Habs No

This week it's just the New England faction holding down the fort talking about the Bruins win streak against good teams and the beat down of the Habs on Saturday night. It's always a glorious day to hate the Habs!

Ep 907 - Who Is This Team?

Have you wanted to hear the unique vocal stylings of Tim singing CCR? Then this is the episode for you! We're back and trying to muddle through what we think this team is and look forward tio what they should do at the deadline while noting how players are right now. We discuss the pile of bodies that are the injured and speculate about what is going on with Grzelcyk.

Ep 906 - Future Problems

This week we start off very off topic and go from there. Matty Pots is of to the WJC. Geekie has finally activated. No one can stop Coyle or Pasta in the shootout. All fun stuff. But then we mull over what the Bruins could ask if other teams wanted one of Swaymark tandem. (For the record, we do not want the tandem split up nor do we believe it will happen.)

Ep 905 - We're Back!

After a month's hiatus, we're back and boy do we have a lot to talk about.

Dec 08, 20231 hr 11 min

Ep 904 - Technical Difficulties

This week, we're struggling through technical difficulties. Whether it's a malfunctioning computer, a toddler requiring assistance, or players who seem to be a little off, we're working through it.

Nov 02, 20231 hr 18 min

Ep 903 - Here To Stay?

The Bruins have wrapped their Californian swing and we learned some things about the team. One of the things we learned was that MattyPots could be staying for a long time.

Ep 902 - Don't Let Chicago's Goaltending Affect Your Life

On this new edition of Bearly ion Topic we answer many burning questions that everyone wants answered like: 1. Is Carlton Fisk still alive? 2. Can a 19 year-old legally drink alcohol in Canada? 3. How old is Erik Karlsson? In addition to all that we talk about the first two games, give our new center a new nickname, and stop letting Chicago's goaltending affect our lives.

Oct 19, 20231 hr 16 min

Ep 901 - Bruins Centennial

It's the Boston Bruins centennial year and we're here for it. So we start off our ninth season of BoT talking about the roster and making our predictions for the season. Who predicted that Poitras, Beecher, and Lohrei would bestaples of the lineup by December? Who predicted that Connor McDavid would join the Bruins at the trade deadline? Who think that Poitras will be a Calder finalist? Did someone predict something even bigger? Listen and find out!

Oct 11, 20231 hr 11 min

Ep 825 - Bergy And Krejci

After a long hiatus, we're back with a long overdue episode about the retirements of both Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci. And of course, we get sidetracked as usual.

Oct 09, 202345 min

Ep 824 - Taking Care Of Business

This week we're wrapping up our business from the season that was including going over our predictions from just prior to the start of the season. Who won? Who knows? Then we talk about a lot of stuff, namely free agency including the return of Milan Lucic. We gloss over the draft because there wasn't much there.

Jul 12, 20231 hr 37 min

Ep 823 - Whelp

How long does it take me to put out an episode in which we grapple with our feelings (mostly disappointment) about the Boston Bruins first round exit? Apparently almost a month. This episode is about us trying to figure out what happened, how we feel about what happened, and not at all about what the future Bruins team will look like. That is for another episode.

Jun 01, 20231 hr 21 min

Ep 822 - (Alternate) Captain Brad

This week the Boston Bruins and Florida Panthers played 4 games of their first round series and we're here to talk about them. With Patrice Bergeron out with an undisclosed injury, it's up to (Alternate) Captain Brad to lead the team to victory (3 times, not bad) and help his team avoid the pitfalls of playing against the Swamp Kittens. Guess who doesn't have any PIM in this series? Anyway, we discuss the games and how we feel that the series will go from here.

Apr 25, 20231 hr 1 min

Ep 821- Believe In Boston

We made it! It's playoff time! With the Bruins taking on the Panthers in the first round, we decided to take a look at the matchup and predict what we think will happen.

Apr 17, 202350 min

Ep 820- End Of The Regular Season

We love this team. We do. The Bruins broke the record for single season wins. Should they rest everyone after or go for the record of standings points? Pasta scores 60 goals and reached more career milestones. We talk about who we'd rather the Bruins face in the first round and how we think a first round between the Leafs and Bolts. Who will be Seventh Player? All this and more...

Apr 12, 20231 hr 11 min

Ep 819- The Last Real Roadtrip

In this episode we talk about what we learned from the Bruins last real roadtrip of the season. We also talk about players who are having great seasons and who should win the Seventh Player. What about the NHL Awards? Yeah, we've got it. Injuries? wish we had better news. And Tim gives a very thoughtful opinion on James Reimer.

Mar 21, 20231 hr 36 min

Ep 818 - Post Trade Deadline 2023

This week we're talking about the trade deadline: what the Bruins did and what other teams in the East did. Who were we surprised by? Who were we not? How are the new Bruins acquisitions turning out? All this and more!

Mar 10, 20231 hr 11 min

Ep 817- Bonus Bear - Trade Reaction And Goalie Goal!

Last week we recorded an episode. However, life got in the way of releasing it. The trouble of recording an episode around the trade deadline is that information can become outdated very quickly. So instead of releasing the whole thing, I decided that we'd just release the reaction to the trade we knew about and the best thing to happen in a long time: Linus Ullmark's goalie goal!

Mar 09, 202334 min

Ep 816 - Pre - Trade Deadline

This week we review the Bruins 4 game win streak and talk about the Bruins trade deadline possibilities

Feb 23, 20231 hr 23 min

Ep 815 - A Tale Of Two Games

This week we're only discussing two games, one before the break (Maple Leafs) and one after (Capitals). The team couldn't have played any differently in these two games. Then we start talking about the trade deadline and discover there's a lot to unpack.

Feb 15, 20231 hr 17 min

Ep 814 - The Slide

It was bound to happen. Geoff tried to warn us months ago that we'd have to deal with it. But who thinks about skids when their team is just playing bonkers hockey? Yes, the Boston Bruins have experienced their first real losing streak of 3 games. There's no need to panic, they just need some rest. We talk about those games and look forward to the one game in the near future.

Feb 03, 20231 hr 13 min

Ep 813 - This F'ing Team

This week we are joined by special guest and friend of the pod Mandi who takes her due credit for the improvement of one player on the squad. We talk about all the games and some dirty goals from some filthy players. VA tries her hand at calling a fight while Tim tells us how we could deal with a stupidly high QO on a potential trade.

Jan 26, 20231 hr 22 min

Ep 812- Smarting Real Good

Hey, we're back. This time we're trying our best to sound smart. While we gloss over the three game California trip that was mostly past our bedtimes, we mostly talk about the game against the Kraken and the appointment viewing that was the Leafs-Bruins game on Saturday night. We talk about Zacha's new deal and what that means. And of course, we make our soft predictions for the next week. This team is bonkers and incredibly fun!

Jan 17, 20231 hr 1 min

Ep 811 - The NHL On TNT Sucks

The title says it all. Surprisingly, we have more we talk about like how the Bruins did in the two weeks we were away. How was the Winter Classic? What's going on with Pasta's contract? And finally all the ways (we could think of) for why we hate the TNT broadcasts of hockey. Hint: it's not Anson Carter; we love him.

Jan 04, 20231 hr 18 min

Ep 810 - Some Weeks Are Meh

In this last episode before our holiday break, we talk about the week's games and how the team somehow had a meh week but ended up with 5 standings points. We talk about Linus Ullmark and what he's had to overcome. And of course, we discuss the Winter Classic goalie gear. We also sprinkle in some Mighty Ducks , car talk, and a German lesson that you didn't (know you'd) want because we are Bearly on Topic.

Dec 20, 20221 hr 22 min

EP 809- Good Ice, Bad Icing

This week we talk about the two games versus the Vegas Golden Knights, against the Colorado Avalanche on the road and *that* game at Arizona. We also address the Zdeno Chara comments controversy and why Jordan Binnigton sucks.

Dec 13, 20221 hr 21 min

Ep 808- Full Monty

This week we talk about the two games played so far and the one the Bruins will play tonight. How do we think that will go?

Dec 06, 20221 hr 22 min

Ep 807 - Good And Fun

This week we start talking about television then start talking about the games and how the Bruins are playing.

Nov 30, 20221 hr 12 min

Ep 806 - Winning Is Fun

Will Patrice Bergeron get his 1000th point this week? We discuss that and other stuff.

Nov 23, 20221 hr 10 min

Ep 805- Wrong

This week we're a little off our game but the Bruins surely are on theirs. So we do talk a little bit about hockey , and Pasta's potential contract, if it even happens. We wrap up with some talk about the players favorite players.
