Happy Halloween, Irish Fans! What Notre Dame Legend are you dressing up as this year? We can't seem to pick one. (Paralyzed by choice rather than fear.) With this week's episode, we're glad to bring you all treats and no tricks, unless you count the fact that we didn't mention Halloween once in this episode. So feel free to share this episode with a friend... if you dare.

Did you get some rest this weekend? We didn't, but that's only because we're still hyped from last weekend's game. Whether you're a die-hard Notre Dame fan or you just turned on your first Fighting Irish game, if you watched Notre Dame Football's win over USC, we all can agree: X gon' give it to ya. And we'll keep giving you new episodes of fresh content each week. Either way you dice it, slice it (diagonally, if you're Coach Freeman), this episode is a must-listen for all Irish fans.

Episode 6: Milk and Kickers (feat. Marcus Freeman, Spencer Shrader, Michael Vinson, & Amir Carlisle) Oct 10, 2023

Show notes

It's time to bounce back. This week's episode is all about blocking out the noise and focusing on the task at hand. Your task, Irish fans, is to bounce back with us. If you haven't heard, we're All Fight this year, and we'll keep fighting because it's what we do and who we are. Share this episode with someone who shares in the spirit of the Fighting Irish. Give a friend the nickname "Milk" until they earn their "cheese." Try to kick a 60-yard field goal. (Maybe only try the first suggestion.) Whatever you do, fight for the Irish this weekend. We'll be there right beside you.

Episode 5: 4th and 16 (feat. Marcus Freeman, Cam Hart, DJ Brown, and Ryan Harris) Oct 03, 2023

Show notes

...and exhale. If you weren't holding your breath this weekend as the Fighting Irish converted on 4th and 16 with less than one minute to play against the Blue Devils, then you probably weren't watching the game. And you know what? That's alright with us. We welcome all kinds of Irish fans here on WUTE (Terrible acronym. Fantastic show. Trust us.). But don't worry, we're halfway through the regular season, which means there's plenty more Notre Dame Football to keep your heart pounding.

Take this episode with your morning coffee or your lunchtime chili, pasta and cheese - there's no judgment here. All we ask is that you share this show with someone who should hear it. In return, we'll keep giving you the great content the best fans in the world deserve. On to the next one.

It's Ohio State Week, and WE'RE FIRED UP!

Feel free to follow it up with a volume-cranked fight song to really get in the mood, because we're all in this together. Go Irish!

Episode 2: Hotdogs and 80-Yard Touchdown Runs (feat. Marcus Freeman, Chris Tyree, Jaden Greathouse, and Jessica Smetana) Sep 12, 2023

Show notes

This podcast is already 1% better than last week. (Don't tell Sam Hartman.)

Listen, we're not concerned about whether or not a hotdog is a sandwich. We just want to know if they cause 80-yard touchdown runs. The one thing we do know is that Coach Marcus Freeman might be throwing a party if there's ever a rain-delay at Notre Dame Stadium. If anyone knows how to score that invitation, we're all ears.

Oh, and can someone please fix Jess Smetana's mic stand?
