It's the Shane and Dougie Show!

Well friends, the time has come to close the book on this chapter of our little journey together. This will be the final episode of Cheaters Never Win as we know it. It's been a helluva run, and we can't say thank you enough. This episode is a little bit hockey, a little bit nostalgia, and a little bit of just Mike and Derek being all up in their feels. The good news is, we have great guest. Mike Maniscalco from Fox Sports Carolinas joins us to talk Dougie, Willie, and being on the bench. Sean Leahy from NBC Sports joins us to talk the Metro and raisins. Finally, the godfather of this podcast, Jeff Marek is our final guest as we discuss the Canes on a national perspective and have a chance to say thanks to the original inspiration for all of this. We end with a heart felt thank you. We hope you enjoyed this episode and this ride as much as we did. Until we see you at the arena... Lets Go Canes.

This week Pat Clarke joins Mike in studio and the unpopular opinions fly. First up, Skype sucks because the service was down so we have to push off our Sean Leahy interview til next week. But fear not, Mike and Pat delve into everything Canes related including Haula's knee, Williams return, and whats the deal with our extra d-men. Stick around for our chat about Hockey Fights Cancer this Saturday, and we hope to see yall at the game. Have a great day, and hug someone you love.

Apologies for the early singing, but Mike was in a bit of a "thing" this week after a 3 game losing skid. We bounce back nicely to talk w/ The Athletic Carolina's Sara Civian to discuss 11 forwards, the power of the trade market, and exactly what is her tribe vibe. Derek reminds us all that it's a long season, and that now would be a great time to crack a nice cold New Belgium beer before the Canes take on Ottawa in a back to back. Thanks to the Caniac_Realtor (respect the underscore) for sponsoring the guest line and for keeping the Raleigh realty market humming. Thanks to you for listening. Please rate, review, subscribe, and have you pet spayed or neutered. Good night everybody!

This week is all about our love of Dougie and Shane. When Mike and Derek finally calm down on their Dougie lovefest, we get to discussing the great start and where the Canes go from here. Shane joins us on the Caniac Realtor Guest Line to discuss the hot start and how coaches make lineup decisions. We take your #Cheatmail and take a minute to say a few kind words about our friend Mike Maniscalco. Thanks as always for listening.

Much like back to back really good shows, the Canes show just how hard consistency really is. After claiming last years Pre Season Championship Chalice, the Canes came back to earth with a middling preseason. The good news, much like the Canes, we promise to be in much better form Thursday when the season kicks off in earnest. Thanks to new sponsor New Belgium Brewing and to returning sponsor Dawn from Fathom Realty for continuing to put up with our shenanigans. Come for the DJ Khaled jokes, and stay for the details on Thursday season opener tailgate. Thanks as always for listening.

We're back, and oh it feels so good! With training camp kicking off this week and the team back on the ice, Mike and Derek kick off the season discuss who fits where, their take on a busy off season, and is it wrong to drink Irish Coffee at 9:30 in the morning. Is there a ticket giveaway in this weeks episode? Listen and find out.

It's an annual right of passage and we couldn't be more excited to have voice of the Hurricanes and NBC Sports national broadcaster John Forslund back on the podcast. John opines for nearly an hour on how special last years team really was, what the future holds for the Canes, and even touches on the new method of business at 1400 EMR. We hope you enjoy nearly as much as we did.

This week, we have a full remote studio of Mike, Derek, Pat Clarke, and Mr. Workrate. The boys discuss everything that transpired in Vancouver, the early moves by GM Voltron, and where we expect the Canes to go on July 1. Stick around for the disrespect of Canada story, and don't miss Tom's Ceasar review.

What a ride it has been this year for all of the Caniacs. This week, Mike and Derek take a few minutes to just sit back and reminisce about the season that was. It's a rambling chat of just a couple of guys who really enjoyed this season. We hope you enjoy, and we'll be back in a couple of week to discuss the 2019 NHL Entry Draft.

Since we last spoke, the Canes swept the Islanders, progressed to the eastern conference finals, and things have escalated from there. Be warned, this might not be an episode you want on the loud speakers at work because Mike "might" have dropped a bad word or two. Like Carlin bad words. Anyway, we discuss the series to date, what needs to change tonight, and give you some great beer choices in our Bottlemixx beer review. Thanks to everyone who supports us including our sponsors Caniac_Realtor, Bottlemixx, and all the tailgate sponsors including New Belgium and Papa Murphys. Thanks for listening, and we will see you at PNC!
