This week Topher and Jeff bring back one of our most polarizing guests, Uncle Timmy, for a huge debate. We asked on our socials if anyone wanted to come on the show and debate whether mite hockey should be played on full or half ice, and who other than our own Uncle Timmy volunteered. Grab your popcorn Think Tankers, this one gets heated!
