THE WCHL PODCAST

WCHL Commissioner Chris Perry, trusty sidekick Andrew Magerkurth and special WCHL guests discuss the Western Collegiate Hockey League (ACHA Men's Division 1) and a lot of other non-hockey related topics on this incredibly mediocre podcast. While we try to focus on the WCHL, which is comprised of collegiate hockey teams from Arizona, Arizona State, Central Oklahoma, Colorado, Colorado State, Grand Canyon, Missouri State, Nevada-Las Vegas, Oklahoma & Utah, we admit we get distracted and talk music, food, stories from the road, and whatever else pops into the limited minds of two guys that are definitely "not hockey guys".

  Mar 1, 20261h 31mS10

  <p>It's been a minute since our last podcast so Chris and Andrew have a lot to discuss - they get started with the WCHL scores from the past few weeks including sweeps in Oklahoma and Colorado, a Cactus Cup winner, and a Camelback Cup winner! The final conference standings are in, there's a smidge of WCHL news for next season, and then it's all about Nationals (FIVE WCHL teams are in the field of 24!), autobids, bumps, juicy first round matchups, and some likely Final Four teams!

  <p>Drury Assistant Coach Cliff Cook takes a break from one of his many podcast platforms to slum around with the Commish on this episode of The WCHL Podcast, as Andrew is grounded this week and had his phone taken away! Chris and Cliff put the most recent ranking under the most powerful of microscopes and provide keen insights you'll only find here. The guys then move on to pretend Nationals matchups, game results and game predictions before things really veer into the realm of the craptastic with talk of Olympics, Runza, gameday roster limitations, Blake's Lotaburger, the return of...

  <p>Only three more weeks to go until the end of the ACHA M1 regular season and the rankings are coming into focus more and more!

A peek at what Nationals would look like as of today, some advice for teams in two certain brackets, and autobid prognostications are also on tap before the guys get into the upcoming games involving WCHL teams, the Naked Gun, conversation hearts, hotels in the boonies, cheesesticks...

  THE WCHL PODCAST - EP 1013 - JAN 29, 2026

  Jan 29, 20261h 16mS10

  <p>New Year, same crappy podcast! Chris & Andrew are back from hiatus and drop some ACHA tidbits before getting into all the games played by WCHL teams since the semester started (there were A LOT of them!), the most current rankings and where the WCHL teams are (or aren't), and the outlook for Nationals. After that, the guys hit a wide-range of topics, from musical theatre to Pop-Tarts to shallow programs looking for clout instead of substance to the joy of breakfast for dinner! All that and much more! 2026 may be full of hope and promise but this suboptimal episode...
