Locker Talk lineup for June 23

We are mere moments from the premiere of the final episode of Locker Talk on Access Now TV for this season! Not gonna lie, coming up with 60 minutes of local sports content for an entire season, with no actual sports happening, was not always easy. But we expanded our horizons (literally), utilizing technology to bring you guests we wouldn't normally have been able to get in studio in Regina. We'll do more of that going forward.

In the meantime, here's the lineup for our final show of the season. See you in September, and have a great (and safe) summer!
