Sometimes you can't find what you want, but instead you find something you didn't know you needed. (From 2016 and courtesy of the Hillsborough Tax Collector account at the other place). #GoBolts

Two gentlemen in t-shirts (Alex Killorn and Nikita Kucherov) hold up drivers licenses and look awkwardly into the camera.

You're not working today, so why not give it a watch/listen. Heck, even if you are working give it a go. We chat about hockey stuff. #GoBolts #NHL youtu.be/lXsjIVX9QgA?... And remember:

A sign reads "please do not feed the city protected chickens" there is a white silhouette of a chicken next to the text.

But he gifted us this.

What happened while we were at work? Zach Werenski won the Norris Trophy! Darren Raddysh finished 11th. Not too shabby. #GoBolts #NHL

Raw Charge@rawcharge· Jun 2

In lieu of some morning news links, may we offer you a podcast? Justin is back from his trip (where he saw butterflies!) and the gentleman talk Stanley Cup, prospects, and barbecue. #GoBolts youtu.be/uRzXOo9jjI8?...

A green and black butterfly chills out on a green leaf.

Hey we talked about this guy in our mornings news link! #GoBolts www.rawcharge.com/lightning-mo...

Also another podcast episode was released. Watch and or listen on your favorite platform. If you like it, give it a nice review. If you don't, still give us a nice review. We chat about prospects and stuff. #GoBolts m.youtube.com/watch?v=pwv2...

One last chat about the first round loss as Jared from @habseyesontheprize.com stops by for a chat. #GoBolts youtu.be/9EVnPgn01e8?...

Raw Charge@rawcharge· May 4

We talk about the loss. It's the latest (could it be the greatest?) episode of Backchecking the Bolts. #GoBolts youtu.be/5UtBcF0uxl0?...

Raw Charge@rawcharge· May 4

It's unfortunate that the end comes this early, but thank you to everyone that's stopped by the site this season. We appreciate all of y'all.

Lightning fans walk out of Benchmark International Arena and past a bronze statue of Phil Esposito.

One day we will be fiscally responsible, today is not that day. #GoBolts

A hockey arena. Four banners hang from the ceiling as players skate on the ice.

Raw Charge@rawcharge· May 2

Andrei Vasilevskiy was ANDREI VASILEVSKIY in Game Six. Justin and Jason talk about the game and look forward Game 7 in the latest Backchecking the Bolts podcast. Give it a listen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmOw...

A hockey goaltender looks somewhat forlorn. His helmet is pushed back on top of his head and he is wearing a white uniform.

A photo of players skating on the ice in a hockey arena. A large scoreboard is in the middle of the picture and three white banners hang from the ceiling.

When you're 100% sure it's Wednesday, but it's still only Monday.

A hockey player in a white jersey looks up as a hockey player in red crosschecks him in the back for the fifth time.

Raw Charge@rawcharge· Apr 27

The latest episode is out. We chat about the win, the Max Crozier hit, and various other Tampa Bay Lightning related nonsense. #GoBolts youtu.be/uSUay77scts?...

Raw Charge@rawcharge· Apr 20

Yup...the look you give when you have to talk about another overtime home playoff loss. We'll be posting our thoughts on Game One sometime soon. #GoBolts

Two sad looking gentlemen wearing Tampa Bay Lightning hats are shown recording a podcast.

Raw Charge@rawcharge· Apr 3

Mr. @itsnothardev.bsky.social has the distinction of being the first guest on Backchecking The Bolts. Is it an honor? Not quite sure, but we appreciate him stopping by to chat. #GoBolts youtu.be/pS0nQ2C_jbk?...

Two hockey players resolve their differences with their fists instead of their words. One is wearing a white uniform and his long hair is flying as he ducks out of the way of an overhand right from the player in blue.

Raw Charge@rawcharge· Apr 3

Make sure you subscribe so that you're the first on your block to hear our takes on the Lightning's big win against the Penguins. Oh, and an old friend drops by to chat. WHO COULD IT BE? You'll have to listen to find out. #GoBolts

A computer screen shows a split screen of two people with blue Tampa Bay Lightning hats on smiling as they record a podcast.

Raw Charge@rawcharge· Mar 30

No Lightning game tonight, but there is a new Backchecking the Bolts episode. We talk Lightning, Torts, and trivia. #Go Bolts youtu.be/YlI45JpX_hk?...

Raw Charge@rawcharge· Mar 27

Another episode already? Sure why not? Justin and Jason are back to talk about the Seattle game, answer some trivia, and look ahead. #GoBolts #NHL youtu.be/_7uoew-HKF8?...

The rafters of a hockey arena. Championship Banners hang while a strand of electrical current shoots out of a tesla coil.

Recorded before the Hedman news came out, Jason and Justin chat about Minnesota and Mount Rushmore. #GoBolts m.youtube.com/watch?v=a02F... Another picture of a bird.

A harpy eagle stares straight ahead. A dark brown tuft of feathers atop its head. Reddish brown around the face with dark brown and white chest feathers.

Raw Charge@rawcharge· Mar 23

New episode alert! Justin and Jason chat about the Edmonton and Calgary games, more trivia, and some thoughts on Connor McDavid's recent comments. #GoBolts #NHL youtu.be/k6NkPHlAUeM?... Also, a close up of the painting Denial of St. Peter by Valentin de Boulogne

An oil on camvas painting depicts two hands, three die and two coins on a grey tablecloth. The shadows and lighting are innovative of the Caravaggio school of painting.

Baseball? When in Rome. Or, in this case, Dunedin. #NotHockey

The pastoral sport of baseball is laid out before us. The green grass, white chalk lines. A crowd of fans in blue watch as a pitcher hurls a ball with all of the hope and promise spring baseball brings.

Raw Charge@rawcharge· Mar 16

Yesterday's episode today. Jason Justin chat about the Carolina loss, the upcoming road trip, and college prospects (and yes, Justin gets something wrong, see if you can spot the mistake!) #GoBolts youtu.be/CzxOtVNoooM?... Also a picture of toast from our Bob Ross toaster.

A piece of white toast with the silhouette of Bob Ross burned into it.
