History
The show originally aired as Leafs Lunch weekdays from 12 to 2 pm. On February 22, 2016, TSN 1050 introduced a revamped weekday lineup where Andi Petrillo became host of Leafs Lunch and Bryan Hayes, Jamie McLennan, and Jeff O'Neill became hosts of the new drive time program weekdays from 4 to 7 pm, with the 4 pm and 5 pm hours being simulcasted on TSN4, and the 6 pm hour being simulcasted on TSN2.[2][1]
The show used to feature Ray Ferraro as a daily guest in the 5 pm hour before he expanded his role at ESPN in 2021.[3]
On February 25, 2022, the show's three hosts as well as well as Leafs Lunch co-host and Overdrive contributor Michael DiStefano (aka Al's Brother) were announced as celebrity coaches for the CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game.[4]
On April 3, 2023, FanDuel was announced as the show's new presenting sponsor.[1] The show's previous sponsors have included Pinty's and The Source.[5][6]
In September 2025, the show's airtime was cut back from three hours to two hours, now airing from 4 to 6 pm, followed by "OverDrive replay" from 6 to 7 pm.[7]
