Colleen Jones and I started That Curling Show in our homes during the pandemic.

We wanted to help create community. The show continues. Her legacy lives on.

Beautiful tributes from @JoCourtney89 and @BradGushue on our first That Curling Show together.

GOOD MORNING SPORTS FANS

From downtown Toronto. A beautiful day in the big city.

Making a quick pit stop at our CBC Sports HQ before heading back to the west coast Thursday morning. I’ll have short track speed skating coverage all weekend from Vancouver.

"You just gotta play a little bit better" 🥌

@BradGushue thinks the strategy of purposely playing to a tie to secure a playoff spot at @grandslamcurl is actually "brilliant skipping"

Great to have you on the team, Brad.

Your insights on the broadcast and That Curling Show add so much value.

[Team Gushue @TeamGushue]

Wrapped up my first week in the broadcast booth at the Grand Slam of Curling, along with my first episode of That Curling Show!

It was definitely a learning curve. Huge thanks to the production team, @darrendupont, @JoCourtney89, and @Devin_Heroux !
