In this episode of "A Pane In The Glass Podcast" we are joined by Scott Arnold, Head of Development for World Curling. Scott and I have known one another for a long time, back to his playing days at Western University and my first coaching position at the University of Waterloo. Much pebble water has been applied to curling ice for us both since those days. We talk about the game over that time period, his role with World Curling and get a glimpse into the future as well!One of the topics about which we chat is World Curling's streaming TV service (aka "The Curling Channel"). For those of a certain age who have been accustomed to "linear television", it's a brave new world. At the conclusion of the episode you'll hear an excellent article on the subject.
