Do not worry, we’ll be back for season 2 in a little while. We just want to make sure you have enough time to catch up on all the season 1 episodes before we start back up talking building ODRs. We’ve started working on a “wish list” of guests that we think 🤔 have great inside to offer, or at the least entertain.

Don’t forget that last week’s episode had your way to get that NiceRink discount code! Jim La Tourette is busy checking the inbox daily.

Last a big thanks to Barbeque Supply Company for letting us record there weekly - you should stop by and check out there selection of rubs, smokers, flat tops and pizza ovens. Check them out at bbqsc.com

While we drink Amorphic Beer ... we throw out an open call on social media for ODR enthusiasts this week ... and Jayne Wilson from New Brunswick Canada (North of Bangor Maine for those that don't want to google it) answered the call to talk about her pallet rink that stays up year round! We learn of her combo of DYI, NiceRink and some sweet pallet furniture for her ODR setup. After listening to Jayne talk, and seeing her photos, no way that you CANNOT build your own rink. You'll want to listen so that you can say, "I know her..." when she's featured on Outdoor Hockey Club next year.

Recorded at Barbeque Supply Company (bbqsc.com) for all your bbq and pizza oven needs!

We made it! We thank you all for listening.... maybe learning something along the way. With the warm weather, we've not had much skating down here in Wisconsin but we've had a great time talking rinks, beer, beards, BBQ and the outdoor lifestyle. We're not done yet. Sit back and enjoy another a round table talk on beer, chicken wings, Locksmith University, Amorphic Beer, BeardSconsin, Barbeque Supply Company, the bidet, GarageBar and lots of judgements. #20

See you at 21.
