    If you listen to Irish illustrated no need to listen to this . Tyler seems like a good dude but he gets info from the Irish illustrated podcast and spits it out on this podcast . Go listen to II then this and tell me if I’m wrong.

    Tyler is a fantastic host—knowledgeable, passionate, and balanced. As a proud Notre Dame graduate, he roots hard for the Irish, but he’s also fair and honest in his critiques of the team, the coaching staff, and even the fan base when necessary. Each episode runs about 30 minutes, which is the perfect amount of time to get insightful Irish coverage without feeling overloaded. Always my first listen of the day. Go Irish!

  • Notre Dame podcast

    Really enjoy listening. I wish though that you would go back in the past say in the 60’s -90’s when talking about how great the RB’s are today. There are listeners that have been around awhile as an example. But again great show.
