In Episode 8 of The Union Jack Classic Podcast, we dive into one of the most iconic parts of American college football culture… the spirit squads.

We’re joined by Bianca Caryl, M.Ed., Sun Devil Spirit Squad head dance coach at Sun Devil Athletics, alongside two ASU cheerleaders, the incredible Jayden and Isi to break down what it really takes to be part of an elite collegiate cheer programme.

From the physical demands and training to the pressure of performing in front of thousands, this episode goes beyond the stereotypes and into the reality of the sport.

The UJC Podcast team also explore the full pageantry of college football — from cheer and dance to marching bands, mascots and the traditions that turn game day into a spectacle.
