Episode Details

This week on Enjoying Orange Slices with Jeff & Ian 🍊🏒

The boys are deep in the summer sports lull, which means hockey talk somehow turns into soccer, Florida weather, airline stories, outdoor games, weird shirts, beer league glory, contract chaos, and financial advice nobody asked for. From Fort Lauderdale comedy crowds to the NHL schedule drop and Connor Bedard's big-money extension, this one is pure offseason Orange Slices.
