  • Monday Night Therapy: Husker Football 10 Days Away to Season Kick Off
    Aug 19 2025

    This episode of Monday Night Therapy opens with Minnie Hunt officially announcing Fred Sacco as her co-host. With just ten days left before Nebraska’s season opener against Cincinnati at Arrowhead Stadium, the hosts describe the wait as feeling like the last week of school. Fall camp is finished, and recent press conferences from coaches and players have generated optimism. The conversation shifts to Dylan Raiola’s leadership, his polished demeanor in interviews, and excitement about his younger brother’s high school success. Fans debate Nebraska’s defensive depth, particularly on the line and in the secondary, while praising techniques like the “club and rip” move.

    The hosts highlight new and emerging players such as Dasan McCullough, Jameer Khan, and Jordan Ochoa, while stressing academics as a foundation beyond football. They discuss tackling fundamentals, Big Ten officiating, and the challenges of targeting rules. There’s also lighthearted banter about uniforms, wigs, and fan traditions, including black alternate jerseys and Australian punter Archie Wilson’s family visiting from abroad.

    Looking ahead, Minnie predicts Nebraska will score in the 40s against Cincinnati, while Fred remains cautious but optimistic. The show closes with excitement for game day, reminders about upcoming prediction shows, and the familiar rallying cry: Go Big Red!

  • Five Heart Podcast: Husker Football Countdown, Mike Ekeler’s Energy & Archie Wilson’s Debut
    Aug 15 2025

    The latest Five Heart Podcast opened with technical glitches and lighthearted banter between hosts Greg and Minnie, joking about frozen screens, USB ports, and their “zero-budget” basement production.

    The conversation shifted to Nebraska football, just two weeks from the season opener against Cincinnati at Arrowhead Stadium, noting over 60,000 tickets sold—mostly to Husker fans. Discussion centered on defensive analyst Phil Snow’s role mentoring younger coaches, stressing preparation, standards, and stability, as well as special teams coordinator Mike Ekeler’s motivational style, his “one shot, one kill” philosophy, and his push for excellence across all roles.

    Freshman Australian punter Archie Wilson’s emotional press conference and unique ambidextrous kicking skills were highlighted, along with linebacker Vincent Shavers Jr.’s enthusiasm for blitzing and team camaraderie. Single-digit jersey assignments were announced, and wide receiver Dane Key’s 1,000-yard season goal was shared.

    Other topics included the addition of Bud Light sales at Memorial Stadium and upcoming Husker volleyball matches.

    The episode peaked with a comedic “Five Heart Theatre” skit parodying Greg and Minnie, which drew big laughs from viewers. The show closed with Q&A from the live audience, optimism for the season, and the reminder that “Five Heart is all the heart you need!”

  • CN’s All the Right Movies: GOON!
    Aug 14 2025

    We take a deep dive into Goon, the hockey classic starring Sean William Scott, famously know for being Stifler from American Pie - but this time as a very different character.

    Jay Baruchel, who wrote the script, co-stars along with Liev Schreiber, Allison Pill, Eugene Levy and an unbelievable cast in this hilarious and underrated film.

    You don’t need to be a hockey fan to enjoy this movie loosely based on the true story of eventual NHL enforcer Doug Smith. Goon takes you on Doug Glatt’s rise through the minors where you get to meet his lunatic teammates and coaches.

    I can 100% guarantee laughs in this one & will probably crack on a few of the lines - especially the old play-by-play announcer’s outrage at the Canadian anthem being butchered by a Goth girl who thinks she nailed it. (“Well, that was borderline treasonous, and a disgrace yo our nation and its proud & storied history.)

    And that’s about as clean as it gets. Join us. 😈
