  • Bring back Schaefer

    BC and Bruns are great but without Schaefer driving the bus this POD is a dud. I’m out.

    Is Schaefer the whiniest douche in Nebraska sports media? Yes, or yes?

  • Best Husker Pod

    I listen to all the Husker football podcasts and this trio is the best. Funny, genuine camaraderie, and good, to the point, insights without a lot of filler and ads. They pay attention to the program and do their homework, unlike some who have locked on podcasts that don’t seem so locked on anything. Glad these guys started their daily shows to fill that void. Even when Mike S. gets a little negative and ranty, it’s still interesting and smart. No hot takes or click bait here.
