One of the stars of the Netflix reality series "Ice Pilots NWT," joins me on #TheApod for a great conversation about flying planes in the Canadian Arctic and his new documentary about NHL '94!

Hailing from Yellowknife, North West Territories, Mikey McBryan is the General Manager of Buffalo Airways, an airline in the far north that flies actual World War II planes!

Mikey and I discuss how his family's airline business became the subject of a six-season television series, that eventually made its way to Netflix here in the States.

McBryan is also working on a documentary about the legendary video game NHL '94, titled "Pixelated Heroes," which we chat about at length, including his reasoning for making the film, the NHL players he's interviewed and why this game has made such an impact.

Remember, it was voted by you the fans as the best retro hockey video game ever back in April in my Ice Madness tournament.

Hear about the time the Stanley Cup came up to the Arctic, what it’s like living where the sun sometimes doesn't set or rise, which athletes and celebrities have flown on Buffalo's WWII planes and more!
