Our Kids Play Hockey Happy New Year & What’s Next for Our Kids Play Hockey in 2026
Happy New Year, hockey friends and families! 🎉
We’re kicking off 2026 by reflecting on how far Our Kids Play Hockey has come, thanking the incredible community that made it all possible, and sharing a few important updates as we head into our sixth year of the show.
In this special New Year’s episode, Lee, Mike, and Christy talk about the growth of the podcast, the lessons learned along the way, the amazing guests and topics that continue to shape the show—and why listener feedback has always been the fuel behind it all. We also look ahead to a huge milestone year, including our march toward Episode 500.
📣 Programming Update for 2026:
• Main Our Kids Play Hockey episodes will now release on Thursdays
• The Ride to the Rink moves to Saturdays, perfect for weekend drives to the rink
We also share why our annual stats recap is coming a little later this year and how Buzzsprout is helping us tell that story in a new way.
Thank you for being part of this journey—from first-time listeners to families who haven’t missed an episode. We’re excited, grateful, and ready for everything 2026 has in store.
Happy New Year. We’ll see you on the next episode of Our Kids Play Hockey. 🏒💙
