On this lively episode of the Five Heart Podcast, co-hosts Greg and Minnie reunite after Minnie’s return from Big Ten Media Days and a personal family emergency. Minnie shares that her mother, recently diagnosed with cancer, is already undergoing treatment and making an encouraging recovery—prompting heartfelt support from the chat. The episode dives into fall camp updates, including the devastating news that LSU transfer tight end Mac Markway will miss the season due to a failed ACL repair. The hosts analyze the tight end depth chart and speculate on replacements like Carter Nelson.
Throughout the show, Greg and Minnie engage in their trademark banter—debating everything from Nebraska’s chances in the season opener against Cincinnati to Minnie’s perceived affection for Illinois and P.J. Fleck (much to Greg’s playful disdain). The chat erupts with laughter and inside jokes, from clearance wine and beer reviews to calls for Minnie’s “Husker loyalty” to be put on trial.
Minnie also shares her experience interviewing Dylan Raiola at media days and discusses Nebraska’s newest talent, including the promising defensive end Williams Nwaneri. Wrapping up, the duo tease future Five Heart Theater skits and remind fans that the season is just around the corner.
