On an episode which discusses the final Grand Slam event of the season—The Masters—it’s another Masters championship that has the Girls’ attention.

 

That’s right … episode 8 of season 9 begins with yet another story of curling victory on the ice, this time for G2!

 

Mary takes us through her all-star squad’s victory while Lori tells us of her latest trials in the mixed doubles discipline.

 

Next up is the aforementioned Slam event, and all the various storylines—from Ross Whyte making the men’s final (and a reminder of his nude appearance in the Men Of Curling calendar) to Rachel Homan continuing to breathe fire, plus the finale of Italy’s remarkable Team Retornaz.

 

This week’s Hot Topic is fascinating as on-ice penalties are being considered for future three-player teams!

 

 Next up is the 2G breakdown of Ben Hebert’s latest Sheet Show, and it was certainly memorable. That is immediately followed by Team Bottcher’s Christmas singalong, a World Junior B recap and word from the Nunavut playdowns.

 

Enjoy the episode, happy holidays and stay safe!

Lori and Mary are back with episode 6 of season 9 and a smorgasbord of curling talk.

 

First up is a recent catch-up chat with Lori running into some Newfoundland curling stars in Ontario, and Mary revealing the new Super Team she is a member of. She’s more than a member, actually; she’s throwing skip stones!

 

Event discussion then takes place with the weekend’s European Championships and the Canadian Curling Club Championships, followed by fresh news that a new USA vs Canada “North American” championship has been created for recreational curlers!

 

Next up are discussions over the Olympic road through Nova Scotia, and the reveal that competitors did in fact approach Sportsnet about not being consulted on Grand Slam format changes. Turns out the players weren’t happy, and changes have just been announced.

 

What’s left? Various fun and silliness over the Beckham Dance (The Girls want to recruit Jennifer Jones and Brent Laing), and the Curling Legends upload of an old 1997 STOH match featuring our “Baby Girls”!

The 2 Girls are back.

 

The podcast superstars are back in town for episode 5 of season 9 after G1’s adventures in Swift Current produced a bronze medal for Ontario.

 

The Girls thoroughly break down the Canadian Mixed championship before tackling the controversial Pan Continetal Championships in Kelowna.

 

Then it’s on to Pictou, N.S. to discuss all things Grand Slam.

 

There’s even some David Beckham in there.

 

Enjoy the episode and stay safe!

In this special curling podcast episode, do the 2 Girls talk about the Tour Challenge Slam? Yes. Do they talk about the world mixed? Yes. Do they talk about the upcoming Pan Continental championships? Yes.

 

Do they talk about the Golden Bachelor? Of course.

 

But the real reason The Girls are talking this week at all is Tim March, who appears as Mr. March in the 2024 Men of Curling Fundraising Calendar. If you missed the previous episode with the calendar unboxing, go back and listen … and then feast your ears (and eyes) on the 2G calendar frenzy part II.

 

Oh wow, Mr. March!

 

Enjoy the episode and stay safe!
