  • Sports beat

    The show is not the same without Eric Hansen the true Notre Dame football insider.

    I am sure I am not alone but I no longer listen.

    I have emailed the station manager. It’s a budget issue.

  • Awesome job guys

    I’ve been listening to this podcast for the past 9 years. During the Irish football season, there is no team better. Love the banter Eric and Darin (even when they disagree). Off season I don’t mind the talk about other ND sports or even local sports. I grew up in South Bend but haven’t lived there in years. Listening to these guys brings me back home. Thank you.

Q: What factors led to Will Black proving himself at left tackle and then moving to left guard?

Budwesier's Weekday Sportsbeat: Notre Dame Football We In Or We Out Listener Questions
Q: In or out on Notre Dame being able to win a national championship with the current roster and coaching situation?

Budweiser's Weekday Sportsbeat: Rapid Fire, CJ Carr and QB Room, Women's Basketball
