    2025/11/04
    Head Coach Marcus Freeman and explosive WR Malachi Fields join Tony for a deep dive that's anything but "boring", starting with Coach's candid reaction to the broken-play touchdown that somehow worked out (thanks to Malachi's vertical ability, which he calls a "60-40" ball in his favor). Malachi (one of the only married guys on the team) shares the story of his October 1st wedding and the simple-yet-profound philosophy that drives him: "Faith, family, football". Oh, and "fishing!" 00:00 Intro (Tony Simeone) 02:14 Opening Conversation (Tony Simeone, Marcus Freeman, Malachi Fields) 25:32 Subject Matter Expert (Tony Simeone, Malachi Fields) 32:11 Tell me a Story (Tony Simeone, Malachi Fields, Isaiah Dunn) 45:51 Ask the Host (Tony Simeone) 48:03 Outro (Tony Simeone)

    Episode 58: Donovan Hinish, Marcus Freeman, Isaiah Dunn
    2025/10/14
    This week's episode of Wake Up the Echoes starts with an essential debate on Tony's haircut (complete with Coach Freeman's seal of approval, even if he had to be begged for it). Captain Donovan "Donnie" Hinish brings the "Pittsburgh Tough" mentality, detailing his family's blue-collar pride and the raw, inspiring story of how his father beat 5% odds against Stage IV cancer to become his ultimate motivation. Then, things get interesting when he and Isaiah Dunn, the "Froyo King," recount the freshman talent show tradition, where Donnie cemented his locker room legend status by delivering a pitch-perfect impersonation of his older brother, Notre Dame Football alum and current Houston Texan, Kurt Hinish. Plus, find out how Donnie made it to the Met Gala one year and how his lacrosse career ended in the 8th grade thanks to a repeated inability to stop body-checking. 00:00 Intro 01:47:00 Marcus Freeman, Donovan Hinish 22:28:16 Donovan Hinish: Subject Matter Expert 32;52;09 Donovan Hinish, Isaiah Dunn: Tell Me a Story 42:18:19 Ask Tony 47:42:00 Outro

    Episode 57: Aug-tober (feat. Micah Shrewsberry & Pat Garrity)
    2025/10/07
    On the heels of Irish Jam, Notre Dame Men's Basketball season is about to take shape, and host Tony Simeone brings in the two men charting the course: Head Coach Micah Shrewsberry and the Irish's trailblazing new General Manager, former NBA player/exec Pat Garrity. They debate everything from exhibition game prep and what's changed since the Big East days to the complex world of Pat's dual-GM role overseeing both the men's and women's rosters in the NIL era. The conversation goes deep into the new realities of college athletics, before pivoting to a more personal segment where Pat offers first-hand advice on raising an only child. Tune in—you'll learn something about hoops, roster strategy, and the importance of having a good outlook on "hoops in life" regardless of which dining hall you choose. 00:00:00 Intro 01:57:19 Subject Matter Expert 15:07:12 Tell Me a Story 47:01:24 Ask Tony/Outro created by Fighting Irish Media

    Episode 56: Vanessa de Jesus, Niele Ivey, KK Bransford
    2025/09/30
    On this week’s Wake Up the Echoes, Tony welcomes Coach Niele Ivey, grad transfer Vanessa DeJesus, and new co-host KK Bransford for a conversation that zigzags from Filipino spaghetti and Jeremy Lin jerseys. Along the way, we get a first look at the team’s chemistry, hear about Vanessa’s whirlwind national team debut, and learn why networking and saying “yes” might be as important as nailing a three-pointer. It’s equal parts hoops talk, life lessons, and a few laughs - maybe next time over ube ice cream. created by Fighting Irish Media

    Episode 55: Drayk Bowen, Marcus Freeman, Isaiah Dunn
    2025/09/23
    Linebacker Drayk Bowen joins the set for a conversation that balances grit on and off the field. We dig into what it really takes to become a Notre Dame captain—the slow grind of daily discipline over instant gratification—and how Drayk learned from leaders like JD Bertrand and Jack Kiser. But between the football talk, you’ll also hear about Coach Freeman's Disney-cruise and the family dynamics of Drayk being both a big brother and a role model to little Crew Bowen. Toss in a debate over scary movies and the unforgettable story of Drayk’s Texas scorpion sting, and you’ve got an episode that shows how Notre Dame Football is just built different.

    2025/09/16
    What do backyard baseball brawls, a near-miss 80 at Whistling Straits, and a flawless Batman-villain wall collapse have in common? They’re all part of the wonderfully chaotic world of Notre Dame offensive lineman Billy Schrauth. In this episode, Billy takes us from his competitive big-family roots in small-town Wisconsin to his love of golf - before revealing how a stage combat class turned him into Gotham’s most convincing henchman. It’s heartfelt, hilarious, and you may just never look at a bag of milk the same way again. 00:00 Intro 01:30 Marcus Freeman & Billy Schrauth 24:49 Tony Simeone & Billy Schrauth 35:02 Billy Schrauth & Isaiah Dunn 41:24 Ask Tony & Outro created by Fighting Irish Media
