He shares memories of growing up around the Boston Bruins, his father's coaching career and the real stories that inspired some of our favourite scenes.Tim tells the incredible story of how the Cherry family immediately knew Jared was their Don, while CBC initially resisted casting the relatively unknown actor.We also talk Coach's Corner, Ron MacLean, Ralph Mellanby, Sarah Manninen's remarkable performance as Rose, Don's departure from television, and why Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Hockey never made it into the movies.It's the perfect epilogue to our summer with Grapes.Chapters:00:00:00 – Introduction and Rock ’Em Sock ’Em Hockey00:01:51 – Making the Don Cherry Miniseries00:40:17 – Don Cherry’s Hockey, Family and Broadcasting Legacy01:15:54 – Behind-the-Scenes Stories and Future Projects01:28:48 – OutroLinks:Opening Theme: Rightfully Mine by Poised For The WormClosing Theme: Inebriation by Poised For The WormTPS on Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | YouTubeJoin Our PatreonJoin our Patreon for bonus content and for an ad-free feed!

This week, we pick up in the aftermath of the infamous 1987 World Junior brawl and follow Grapes through the most controversial years of Coach’s Corner. From his unforgettable partnership with Ron MacLean to the political firestorms that threatened his career, we revisit the moments that cemented Don Cherry as one of Canada’s most polarizing and influential broadcasters. We also spend time on the quieter, more emotional side of the story, exploring Rose Cherry’s battle with cancer and the lasting impact she had on Don’s life both on and off the air.As always, the recap is packed with behind-the-scenes observations, hockey nostalgia, and plenty of debate. Did the film stick the landing? Did it give Rose’s story the attention it deserved? And was this a stronger movie than Keep Your Head Up, Kid? The panel is split, leading to one of our liveliest review discussions yet.We also hand out our final ratings and MVPs, with Jared Keeso earning well-deserved praise for his remarkable transformation into Don Cherry… though one panelist makes a compelling case for Blue the dog instead.If you’ve been following our Don Cherry series, this is the finale you’ve been waiting for. And next week, we take it one step further as Tim Cherry joins The Produce Stand to share the stories behind the stories.Chapters:00:00:00 – Introduction00:01:03 – How Was Your Week?00:13:20 – Don’t Bore Us Get To The Chorus (Episode Recap)01:09:22 – Initial Thoughts01:19:26 – Ratings01:25:19 – MVPs01:30:35 – Patreon Roll Call01:33:21 – Final Comments01:38:38 – OutroEpisode Rating:Al: ClearanceTanya: FreshVictor: FreshMat: ClearanceEpisode MVP:Al: Jared KeesoMat: Jared KeesoTanya: Rose CherryVictor: BlueLinks:Opening Theme: Rightfully Mine by Poised For The WormClosing Theme: Inebriation by Poised For The WormTPS on Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | YouTubeJoin Our PatreonJoin our Patreon for bonus content and for an ad-free feed!
