Great podcast
Hard to listen to his voice.
He’s got a voice for the newspaper.
Top tier hawk pod
I was disappointed by the departure of the previous hosts, however I’m really excited with the new direction of the podcast. Leah has taken over hosting incredibly well and now this has sneakily become one of my favorite Hawkeye podcasts. Keep up the good work.
