  • Are the F Bombs really necessary?

    Like the show, don’t like the language. I am not sure why you would think vulgar language somehow makes your show better. I am a avid Hoosier fan living in Kansas and a long time listener, but after today I am out.

  • IU Trustee Episode

    All of the info and guests are freaking awesome, but the episode with the IU trustee could be one of my favorite pod casts I have ever listened to. The passion and memories you guys and the guests bring and all the shared experiences over the years regardless of when you attended resonate in such a strong way. Thank you guys for doing this.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Remembering Joe Smith with Andy Graham -- July 16, 2026
Q: Andy, you knew Joe Smith very well. Do you have a first memory of meeting him and what was your impression when you first met Joe?
Andy recalls Joe's welcoming demeanor and willingness to help, emphasizing Joe's encyclopedic knowledge and the sense that Joe always treated people with respect and made them feel like important part of the community.
Jared Kelly on IU football, basketball, and the NFL Draft -- April 21, 2026
Q: And secondly, give me your projection on who's going to be the backup quarterback this year.
Jared suggested Grant Wilson, the experienced sixth-year quarterback, is likely to handle backup duties, assuming Hoover remains the starter; it's early, but the veteran presence and Hoover's plateauing development make Wilson the most probable second-string option.
The Peegs Postgame LIVE: Minnesota -- March 4, 2026
Q: Darren, it looks like you were up 15 at halftime and your message was to keep hammering away; how proud were you of the way your team finished the half and the game?
We talked about extending the lead and finishing 40 minutes; the guys stayed focused, moved the ball well, and executed the game plan on both ends, which was really encouraging to see.
The Peegs Postgame LIVE: Nebraska -- Jan. 10, 2026
Q: What did you need to see from the other guys in that situation when you don't have Tucker on the floor?
I needed to see them perform as they have all year. They didn't have the type of possessions they needed after Tucker went out, mostly turnovers.
The Peegs Postgame LIVE: Siena -- Dec. 22, 2025
Q: What do you need to improve as a group moving forward?
We need to turn the ball over less and defensive rebound better, which are our top two priorities.
