    Enjoy the daily shots but far too many shows built around the idea of “let’s read listener emails”.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

DK's Daily Shot of Penguins: Stay (really) humble
Q: Can you shed a light on what you believe the coaching staff sees in Caleb Jones?
Dejan expresses his belief that Caleb Jones has shown fearlessness and potential but lacks reliability with the puck, suggesting he would prefer to see Owen Pickering rather than Jones due to Pickering's capacity for improvement.
DK's Daily Shot of Penguins: Having fun yet?
Q: What has gotten into the big fella?
Gino is playing to prove something, evident from his energy and effort on the ice. He says he's just having fun and enjoying every moment because he knows this is likely his last year in Pittsburgh.
DK's Daily Shot of Steelers: A legit matchup
Q: What's the vibe of this team at this point in the season compared to what it was at the beginning of the year?
The team feels more cohesive and confident, particularly after positive performances, especially in recent games.
DK's Daily Shot of Pirates: The greatest mistake?
Q: How can the Pirates management expect their fans to believe that this team is really close to winning?
Management has never suggested the team is close to winning and have stated their goals differently. There's a lack of clarity on ownership priorities regarding winning.
DK's Live Shot: Postgame Penguins vs. Rangers
Q: Do you feel like you needed time to settle in your nerves wise? Or do you feel confident right from the start?
I feel confident. I definitely think as far as the motions running and the atmosphere there is definitely a little bit of nerves. But I think once I settled in, I took a couple of hits and stuff like that, I felt a lot better about my game.
