Not sure where to put this, but excited!
Since PFC members and Friends TalonChick, Steve Kerr, Xuan Liu, SirWatts and a few others have been past guests, figure some of you might already be familiar with PokerEH! On the QuadJacks Network...
Well, I'll be taking over as host and the first show of Season 2 is going up tomorrow. Big shoes to fill, but practice makes perfect they say!
We kick off with Stuart Hoegner of GamingCouncil.co to talk about the direction online poker is taking in Canada and there is a ton of great info on topic for inquiring minds, especially those that like the political and business side of it all. We also talk Khanawake and whether or not it could be duplicated in other parts of the country.
Hope some of you tune in and it will be on ITunes, official announcement from QJ:
Derby Jackpot is not the only thing that's new on QuadJacks this week. Remember when I told you that we would be introducing a new show later this month? It might be ready to debut as early as this Tuesday. Eric Danis, formerly of Poker EH! and the man behind Poker Tournament Player Rankings, will become the voice of QuadJacks' The Pulse. This will be a show focusing exclusively on the live poker tournament scene worldwide, and with Danis's expertise in observing and collecting such data, we could not ask for a better host! The inaugural episode's guest is scheduled to be Jason Somerville, who will tell us about his experience coaching, and documenting, October Niner Russell Thomas.
*
You will notice that I said "formerly of Poker EH!" That is because, the new Poker EH!, which is also relaunching this week, will no longer feature Danis as host, but rather frequent contributor Jon Harnish. Didn't expect that, did you! Yes, our Canadian-themed show Poker EH! also makes a return this week, and the first guest will be Canadian gaming attorney Stuart Hoegner, better known as @GamingCounsel on Twitter.

The gradual restoration of our podcast legacy is proceeding very well so far. Last week, we rebooted The Mental Game with Jared Tendler.*Ryan Eriquezzo was our first guest, and it was an absolutely amazing show. This week, Jared talks to renowned poker playing intellectual Olivier Busquet, and that one is also pretty much guaranteed to be a hit, if you ask me.
*
Finally, I would like to update you on a very important development that concerns the future of our industry. On Friday, October 19, the full text of the current draft of the online poker bill by Senators Harry Reid and Jon Kyl was leaked and uploaded on QuadJacks. You can view this bill in full here, but be aware that it is 73 pages long. Therefore, guest contributor Chris Grove*(from the Online Poker Report) did us all a great favor by breaking the bill's most important points down in a very comprehensible manner. This was not the only special contribution Grove made. He also wrote a very scathing review of PokerStars' abrupt decision not to indemnify Full Tilt Poker's old affiliates. I really admire Chris's work, and I could not be more honored to have him be writing for QuadJacks from time to time.

I'm thinking right when you get back from Prauge?
Your overdue for your big Bink, I'll be calling you up someday I'm sure
with the first show and our online legal expert around the 20 minute mark. A short written recap of the entire show can be found on the link, as well as RSS and ITune subscription links.
The intro is pretty light as Eric passes the proverbial torch over to myself and we talk about a the big happenings by our players over the summer and fall; including SirWatts and his High Roller Shippage! From there, the real "meat" is our special guest.
For those who may listen, I would really appreciate any feedback and future questions you might ask Stu.
Going forward, we will of course be inviting on both established pros and rising stars and I am very excited to talk to a player this week that I've had many a correspondence with but never actually had a real time conversation with. He tied a previous all time record for cashes at the WSOP this summer and punches people in the face professionally when he's not grinding, so should make for an interesting chat...
Thanks all for the support!

QuadJacks | Poker EH! with host Jon Harnish and special guest Terrence Chan
LMK what you guys think of new format
shorter, more direct... cleaner, smooth are words that come to mind. so much more enjoyable for the listener
enjoyed the super quick recap of all recent scores on our scene and i really really liked T Chan as a guest obviously , he's so sick
well don Jon, u sound great.
Ya I told Jon to have a few redbulls before the recording, and he gave me this!
It's once a week, we try to record Sundays and virtually no Canadian player is off limits or out of reach.
Please post or PM if your interested.
Hey Jon, I hosted my own golf show on AM900 CHML for three years and would love to do something with poker. You'll have to let me know about logistics and any equipment I might need.
quadjacks is my shit
Hmmmm I am from Hamilton area and know AM900 well! Very cool stuff. All you need is a half decent mic/headset combo and Skype
Sounds interesting!
