iHeartMedia, together with the National Hockey League (NHL), has announced a new addition to their podcasting line-up, "Energy Line with Nate and JSB." This weekly podcast will feature former NHL player Nate Thompson and broadcaster Julie Stewart-Binks, offering a blend of hockey insights and broad-ranging discussions on sports culture.

The show promises to energize listeners with dynamic conversations and engaging storytelling, covering not only hockey but also intersecting with various cultural spheres like music and entertainment. The hosts' chemistry and diverse backgrounds are expected to draw listeners into a world of insightful interviews and unexpected anecdotes.

In the inaugural episode, the podcast welcomes Patrice Bergeron, a former NHL star and Stanley Cup champion, who shares intimate details about his career and future hockey prospects. The episode also features three-time Super Bowl champion Mark Schlereth, discussing his love for the Colorado Avalanche and his views on recent NHL developments.

With a history of covering major sports events from the NHL Stanley Cup to the Olympics, Julie Stewart-Binks brings extensive experience and a vibrant presence to the podcast. Her broadcasting career, decorated with multiple Telly Awards, spans several prestigious networks, including ESPN and CBS Sports. Stewart-Binks' personal connection to sports is deep-rooted, influenced by her family's legacy in Olympic sports medicine and journalism.

Renowned for his determination and leadership in the NHL, Nate Thompson has transitioned from athlete to advocate, focusing on mental health awareness and resilience in post-sport life. His story adds a layer of depth to the podcast, enriched by his experiences and commitments off the ice, from parenting to engaging in community service.

"Energy Line with Nate and JSB" is available on the iHeartRadio app and other podcast platforms. It stands as the second series launched under the burgeoning partnership between iHeartPodcasts and the NHL, following "NHL Unscripted with Virk and Demers."
