- Analyzing the Hockey Canada trial [3] (01:30:07)
[Part 3 of 4] In Part 3, we unpack the confusing timeline of Room 209 and the contradictions at the heart of the case. A clear pattern emerges: the five accused players were repeatedly given the benefit of the doubt, while E.M. was scrutinized and cast as unreliable. Thanks for your patience with this deep-dive series and for allowing us the time to give it the attention it deserves. Part 4 will wrap this series up, and then we’ll be back to our usual schedule. Please note: this series does not dispute the judge’s not guilty verdicts.Our position is that the framing of the evidence in the written decision was unnecessary and damaging, with impact that extends far beyond the trial.*Additional content warning: Graphic details of sexual acts.More information and resources:WATCH: Hockey Parents - A profile of Mitch Marner and Michael McLeod's parents from 2009, by Peter Wall for CBC via YouTubeREAD: What Was Left Unsaid in the Hockey Canada Trial | The Walrus, by Ariella Garmaise, Sept 10 2025FYI: The “Junior Hockey Bible” via Internet Archive (content warning!)LISTEN: The Trial of Jacob Hoggard (JB’s story).

- Analyzing the Hockey Canada trial [2] (01:33:27)
[Part 2 of 4] The Hockey Canada verdicts are final, but the story isn’t. Kristi Lee looks closely at the most talked-about evidence, how it was reflected in the written decision, and how that shaped public opinion. Thanks for your patience!In this episode:The flaws in the first police investigation - and why it didn't result in chargesMichael McLeod's instagram exchange with EM the day after the hotel room incidentThe "group chat" six days later that appears to show the hockey players trying to get their stories straightThe series of debacles that resulted in this jury trial switching to judge-aloneSurvivors JB and Kelly Favro return to share their perspectives about watching this case unfold not only as survivors — but also as massive hockey fans.*Additional content warning: Details of sexual acts.PLEASE NOTE: This series does not dispute the judge’s verdicts. Instead, it highlights a deeper truth: contradictions and inconsistencies existed on both sides, yet the accused players’ accounts were overwhelmingly accepted while the victim-complainant's was dismissed as “not credible or reliable.” Regardless of verdicts, our position is that this framing was both unnecessary and harmful — and its impact reaches far beyond the trial itself.More information and resources:LISTEN: Kelly Favro’s Story and The Trial of Jacob Hoggard (JB’s story)WATCH: Steve Dangle Show on Youtube - Team Canada World Junior Trial Verdict w/ Katie Strang, July 29 2025READ: The Hockey Canada trial could have been a reckoning.
