The official podcast of the 442d Fighter Wing. Hosted by Brig. Gen. Steve "Nasty" Nester and the 442FW Public Affairs team, HawgCast is a one-stop shop for UTA news and operational recaps straight from wing commander! The podcast is divided into two sections. The first is "Nasty Time," where BG Nester talks about what happened between drill weekends, and what's coming up for the next UTA. In part two, we take a look "Under the Wing" and see what some of our Airmen are up to. We tell the stories of how they came to be in the wing, what they've done since they joined us, and where they're going in the future. HawgCast is perfect for your UTA commute, so make sure you subscribe to get your brief on your way in Saturday morning!

HawgCast Ep08 - Babble Time
In Col. Mike "Rio" Leonas's first official podcast as 442d Fighter Wing commander, he and Maj. Shelley Ecklebe talk to Col. Brian "B-Lite" Leiter and Lt. Col. Pat "Chevy" Chevalier, both of whom started as enlisted members, earned a commission through their hard work and dedication, and went on to be two of the most respected leaders in the wing. We also introduce "Babble Time," in which Col. Leonas talks about the wing's news similar to Brig. Gen. Nester's "Nasty Time." In Babble Time, though, there's a twist – and a bit of a challenge!
