This Amelnykan Life, Episode 15: Taste is Subjective feat. @jaredgibson_

Talking bubble fashion, tentacles, and playoff qualifiers!

For the first time in Amelnykan history, we’ve brought a guest onto the show! Noted menswear expert Jared joins us to talk about the, ah, interesting fashion decisions being made inside the NHL bubble now that there’s no dress code. Then we talk about the highs and lows of the qualifying round of the playoffs, and, yes, the Seattle Kraken and their potential to provide excellent content for our mascot minutes.

The music this week is yellow by the desert island big band.
