On this week's episode of Inside the Village, Frisco and Scott sit down for an in-depth conversation with former NHL coach of the year, Memorial Cup Champion — and now author — Ted Nolan. His new book, Life in Two Worlds: A Coach’s Journey from the Reserve to the NHL and Back, is a brutally honest recollection of his life at the highest levels of our national game, and the racism he endured at points along the way. At a time when the country is grappling with the concept of truth and reconciliation, Nolan’s book is a must-read — and this interview is a must-listen. Also on the podcast: Village Media is expanding yet again, this time to Flamborough. The new site goes live Feb. 6!
