Jeremy Paul and Laura Norman provide their purely subjective feelings about the roller coaster ride that is being a Columbus Blue Jackets fan, in this podcast, CBJectively Speaking (pronounced Subjectively Speaking).These two best friends bring a unique, inclusive, and open-minded perspective to being a Columbus Blue Jackets fan and spend a lot of time laughing in the process. No matter your Blue Jackets or hockey knowledge/experience, you will find a fan home with Jeremy and Laura!Visit our Website: cbjectivelyspeaking.comFollow us on Instagram & Twitter: @CBJectivelyPod
Having Kelly Bodeman on CBJectively Speaking matters because it breaks the show out of the usual rotating cast of beat writers and ex-players and puts a different kind of hockey voice in front of Blue Jackets fans. That's the value of a guest-driven episode: it opens angles the standard game-recap conversation doesn't reach, and gives listeners a reason to tune in beyond the scoreboard. Whether you follow the team obsessively or casually, an outside perspective is what makes the show worth the listen that week.

How do you explain a model to someone who thinks analytics is ruining the sport?
Not a persuasion contest — more a question of what translation actually works. Analogies? Showing the failure cases? Letting them catch you being wrong in public?
Which public hockey metric is still the most misunderstood — and who's responsible for fixing that?
Corsi, expected goals, quality of competition, save percentage — each has been misused by someone. Which one keeps getting misread, and does the blame sit with the people producing the numbers or the people repeating them?
Covering the Blue Jackets 'objectively' while still caring about the result
Fanhood and analysis can coexist, but they pull in different directions. Worth unpacking where the tension actually shows up in coverage and where it's overstated.
