I have been working at the Zone the past few days on a new project called “Hockey! with Jeremy.” My challenge is to create a hockey feature to be broadcast on the radio during the intermission of Victoria Royal‘s hockey games. I have only made two so far (its a lot of work to produce spoken word radio… who knew?).
I have enjoyed the practice thus far… and look forward to trying to create compelling audio and improving my style as the season progresses. Have a listen to the first two segments.

Mixcloud >> Hockey! with Jeremy – Hockey Sense
“Practice” was fun because I got actually sit on the bench and yap with the boys during a rest in practice. Plus I had the chance to talk with Kevin Sundher and he is the Royal’s first line stud.
“Hockey Sense” I recorded this morning after practice and I had the chance to interview the boys (and a coach!) as they came off the ice. I of course caught up with homeboys Jesse Pauls and Brenden Persley again. But I missed my boy Timmy T who might be the most hilarious Royal I’ve talked with so far.
Tomorrow (Tuesday, November 8th), The Royals are at home against the Edmonton Oil Kings. The PR flaks from the Royals said I might get to sit in the suicide box at ice level and record the sounds of the game. Nice. Better bring my helmet. I might also interview some kids about hockey… so if you’re bringing your kid to the game and see me, say hi so I can put your midget you on the radio.
Go with yourself.
