John and Robbie are back and lost in all the Canadian Olympic Trials hubbub was the fact that the European Championships also took place the same week! The BBs go through all the results there as it's a Swedish Sweep for Teams Edin and Hasselborg, before turning their attention to the upcoming HearingLife Canadian Open in Saskatoon as the GSOC brings 2025 to a close. We take a look at some of the most intriguing storylines coming into the week, we take a quick peek at the very strong Tier 2 field, and we close with Robbie's famous predictions.

John is joined by Marc Kennedy and Paul Webster as Marc heads to his Canadian curling record 4th Olympics and Paul heads to his first as a coach of a curling team and not as a Curling Canada employee. Marc is up first to discuss how it felt a bit different this time, why Brad Jacobs and Brett Gallant are performing better now than they ever have been, how exactly he's managed to get to 4 Olympic Games, and how this might shift his plans for next year and beyond. Then we bring Paul back on the podcast after his wonderful appearance last year to give us some insight on why he thinks Team Jacobs practices better than any team, how his coaching has involved managing masculinity, and the challenges that the Cortina portion of the Olympics will bring.

Thankfully there's no judge and jury here but Robbie and John go long on the recently-completed Canadian Olympic Trials, with something to say about every team in the field. We discuss how Rachel Homan dealt with the immense pressure of being the top dog to find her way to Cortina, Christina Black's charmed run to the women's final, Team Jacobs' two-year ascent to the top of Canadian curling, and everyone and everything else in between. And of course, we also pay tribute to the curling world's dear departed friend, Colleen Jones.
