  • Good Questions! Great Questions!

    Has anyone noticed that Mike and Jason ask a lot of great questions on the HalBro Show? Someone should keep a running tally every time they get a “Good/Great Question" comment from the guests.

    They’re currently on a “Great Question” heater in January. Brough has asked 7 “Great Questions” and 4 “Good Questions.” Halford has asked 1 “Great Question” and 3 “Good Questions.”

    Who will have the highest score by the end of the year? Keep it on the dial and listen to Halford and Brough in the Morning.... more

  • Crème de la crème

    I’ve been listening daily for about three years now and this show makes my day every time. I appreciate the banter the guys have and love the small tid-bits from Laddy & A-dog. Thanks boys! You rock.

  • The best way to start the day and live, really

    After years of listening it only gets better. The wisdom, the humor, the banter and the commiseration of the experience being a Canucks fan. Somehow they blend the dark and the light with authenticity and the impossible balance of self-deprecation and fierce Canadian hockey passion. Love the dogs, love most of the guests. They never coast.

  • Amusing & Entertaining

    The Halbro crew keep the subject matter and discussion relevant to the local sports scene, you don’t need to listen every day to understand the banter. It’s a fun way to spend your commute.

    Bravo boys!

  • Far too negative

    Hanford and Brough are beginning to make Thomas Drance look like an eternal optimist. I can’t stand the negativity around the Canucks any more and I am stepping away. You can keep it. Dan & Sat are much better while still being objective.
