Paul Edmonds | Finding A Labour of Love, Calling the Winnipeg Jets, and Minor League Baseball's Charm

March 04, 2021 • Eric MacLise / Paul Edmonds • Episode 31

Paul Edmonds is the play-by-play radio voice of the Winnipeg Jets. Paul joins Eric to explain how being singularly focussed through his career has allowed him to keep sports as a labour of love. Paul shares tales from 19 years as the voice of the Winnipeg Goldeyes, the 2012 Championship and minor league baseball's charm. Paul reflects on getting the Jets PxP job, and Eric is torn between sorrow for TSN 1290 going off the air, and satisfaction for CJOB 68 getting the flagship hockey rights back. Then, Eric asks Paul about calling games during the pandemic, the all-Canadian North Division, and more.
