Rules Committee - Ep. 33
As you know, the NFL rules this podcast. And this week we've been asked to discuss - well, NFL Rules. The discussion gets spirited, but overall, I'd say we mostly agree. The Vikes keep winning, the Packers are 'meh' at best, we all despise the Bears. The Bison. Holy smoke smokes, what a start?…

Vikes Win, Mike Whines - Ep 32
Our man, Carson Wentz stepped in an brought the Vikings back for a big W against the rival Green Bay Packers. Scott and Tom are giddy. Mike needed to vent. We yap about some other NFL stuff in some rapid fire sessions. This is a diffent approach than we've taken before, let us know if you liked…

ND NFL Legend Phil Hansen - Ep. 31 - The Interview
Phil Hansen is part of every North Dakota Mount Rushmore conversation we have. He's on the Buffalo Bills Wall of Fame with only 29 others. He still ranks third all time on the Bills sacks list, and was a key part of the team's run to four straight Super Bowls (Phil played in three). He also…

Speechless - Ep.30
For the first time ever we ask Scott a question...and he's speechless. Once he caught himself we talk a lot about, you guessed it, football. Lots of Vikings drama (there's a certain ND QB doing his thing there) and we provide updates on the ND guys in the pros. We reminisce a little about what…

Smreks! - Ep. 29
It's football season. We love football season. So does long time St. Mary's coach, Dan Smrekar. Coach Smrekar joins us on the show - and if you like talking about football memories in North Dakota, you'll love this episode. We had an absolute blast (and I think there's a chance he did too).
-
Bison QBs in Camp - Ep28
NFL Training Camp is here - and believe it or not, 5, count them FIVE, consecutive NDSU Bison QBs are on NFL rosters. We talk about how unbelievable that truly is. There are plenty of other North Dakotans on NFL rosters, lots of linemen, a couple of receivers, and a fullback - all worth watching…

Homers in Hats - Ep. 27
We're still on a high from our interview with Utah State Head Basketball Coach, Ben Jacobson - and we're wearing Aggies hats to prove it. When we get on to what else is on our mind we dive into the Major League Baseball draft (because ND was represented!), this punishing heat wave, North Dakotans...
-
Mr. Basketball to Mr. Coach - Ep. 26 - Interview with ND hoops legend Ben Jacobson
Ben Jacobson won Mr. Basketball in North Dakota in 1989 (he reminds us he shared it with Chris Gardner, who joined him on the UND squad the following year), coached as an assistant at UND and NDSU (a move we chuckle over for a few minutes), then at the University of Northern Iowa where he was...
-
Season 2 Oi! Oi! Oi! - Ep25
We kick off Season 2 the same way we started this thing - talking about Jackson Blake, born in Fargo, and this year hoisting the Stanley Cup with his Carolina Hurricanes. While we're on hockey, Britta Curl was in the news again (always love that!). Then, because football is king, we kick that...
-
Satchel Paige and Bismarck's Fascinating Amateur Baseball History - Interview with Author Tom Dunkel

-
Scheduling (and why we care) - Ep 23
We're all over the place in this one. It starts though with the NFL schedule release, because the NFL is king. From there we touch on Britta Curl and her Minnesota Frost, our guy Jackson Blake and the Carolina Hurricanes kicking butt in the NHL Playoffs. Then we wind our way through some listener...
-
Going Pro - Ep22
We're mildly obsessed with the NFL Draft, so we spent a lot of minutes on that topic - including some time on the two NDSU players selected this year. We also reminisce a bit (yeah, that's what we do) about past drafts. In the NFL portion we also update fans on North Dakotans playing in the NFL,...
-
Ep. 21 - Interview with Bismarck Bobcats head coach Garrett Roth
The Bismarck Bobcats won the NAHL league title last year under head coach Garrett Roth, and with only two returning players from that team, the 'Cats are ready to challenge again. As playoffs approach we thought it would be a good time to catch up with Roth on the team, his lengthy relationship...

UND's off to the Frozen Four with a loaded line-up and lots of momentum. In our first regular episode in a long while, we talk about the energy around the team and new coach Dane Jackson. Then we dive into some college hoops, relive some NFL Draft memories, and as always, drop a nugget or two…

Big Dance Dexter - Ep19 - Interview with NDSU March Madness Darling Dexter Werner

Ep. 16 Bulldogger - Bridger Anderson Interview
Carrington native, Bridger Anderson is fresh off a 9th place finish in Steer Wrestling (Bulldogging in the biz) at the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. What a cool guy, with a hell of a story. If you don't know much about rodeo, this interview will also be a bit of a lesson - it sure was for…

70Won Sportscast Ep. 15 - The 70Won Bump
We've noticed that when we interview people, they respond with really good games/events! We might brag about this a bit in this episode. We, of course, lead with more on Britta Curl-Salemme and her Olympic debut. Here's the schedule for the US Women's Hockey team so you can catch #17 in action:...

70Won Sportscast Ep. 13 - Purple Haze

70Won Sportscast Ep. 11 - Gifts
We award Christmas gifts to our Mt. Rushmore members (all time and active), plus a North Dakotan who just deserves a present to make their impact that much greater. Lots of other stuff comes up, of course, including Bison/Fighting Hawks bowing out of the playoffs early, some college football...
-
70Won Sportscast Ep10 - EmailsWin
Emails drove a good chunk of the conversation, and we're honestly embarrassed about a couple of the North Dakotans repping the 70Won that we hadn't discussed yet! The emails were spurred by our ongoing discussion about who would fill out an Active Mt. Rushmore. We talk Bison. Because it's…
more -
70Won Sportscast Ep9 - Living Museum
The Mt. Rushmore conversation is fun - we expand on it in Episode 9, limiting it to North Dakotans who are still playing or coaching. Tom has some off-the-radar additions that deserve lots more coverage. We also add some chatter about the Bison v Fighting Hawks rivalry, another coach or two we…
more -
70Won Sportscast Ep. 8 - PuckDrop
We start with a few minutes on that Mr. Rushmore list we bantered about last episode. We might have come to some consensus. Tell us where we're wrong at [email protected]! We know we've missed some honorable mentions at least. A little Bison/FightingHawks football follows (are the Bison…

70Won Sportscast Ep. 4 - Weston Dressler

70Won Ep. 3 - Coach
Inspired by our first listener email, we dive into the prominent football coaches who got their start in North Dakota. Most of them emerging from The Program, NDSU. But all took different and impressive paths to the pros. Some names you'll recognize, and some names might just give you some more...

70Won Ep. 2 - The Program
Two players from NDSU were drafted into the NFL this April. They continue to build a legitimate pipeline of talent to the pros that got more and more surprising as we dug into it. More than we thought grew up in our state! Plus, a bit more hockey talk as a Bismarck native got drafted to an NHL team.
