Listen to Fer Sure - Episode 29: CJ Turtoro, Matt Barlowe, and Matt Cane, Recorded at RITSAC

Here’s what Peter and Jay have for you this time (all time locations are without the opening ad):

Intro : (00:00 - 01:56) Since Jay couldn’t make it to Rochester, I let him do the entire intro! This special episode consists of two interviews I conducted this past weekend at the RIT Sports Analytics Conference (RITSAC). It was impossible to record in a perfectly quiet spot, so there is a bit of background noise, but I edited the vast majority of it out.

Interview with Matt Cane: (01:56 - 33:39) Our first interview is with Matt Cane. He is best known for his free agent salary model (listed here), but he is a wealth of hockey and stats related knowledge. Jay mentioned that Matt’s presentation was on curling. We talked a little about that, but it was mostly about hockey.

Interview with Matt Barlowe and CJ Turtoro: (33:39 - 1:10:28) Matt and CJ hosted a workshop the first night of RITSAC on Tableau. They are very good at data visualization, in addition to other hockey related topics.

Wrap Up (1:10:28 - END) Here’s where to find our contact info, etc. Thanks for listening to another episode! We have a couple big guests we’ve been working on getting for a while now, and they’ve recently confirmed, so

If you are using a podcast app, you can find both this podcast and WIIM Radio (our podcast devoted to the Red Wings) in the same channel - Winging it in Motown. It doesn’t seem to be showing up in Google Play, but an app like Stitcher should work if you use an Android device for your podcast listening.
