We just posted our latest episode which features Steve Fitch who played for two conference regular season champions. Make sure you catch the last segment where he talks about his former teammate Reggie Wilson

This was well done! I am very thankful you covered Reggie's passing the way you did. Still makes me 😤 thinking about what happened to him and his girlfriend. Fitch was very much involved in that night, and I'm glad you guys didn't go into too much detail about it. Very well done gentlemen. (y)(y)(y)

I was a year behind Lou at ISU. Knew him from a mutual friend in our dorm. Great times at ISU and his stories brought back a lot of fond memories. Great Podcast and glad Coach Pedon reaches out to the older guys to get input.

LOU....That was quite good. Lou kept saying how bad he was in the Alabama game. He was 4 for 11 including the game winner. Amazingly, there were 2 FT's for each team in the entire game. Both teams only played 7 players and Braksick for ISU only played 1 minute and one Alabama player only played 2 minutes. Basically, both teams played 6 guys. Today with all of the conditioning, lifting, etc. guys are lucky to make it to the under 12 timeout. Times have really changed.

This is awesome. I don't know if I'd ever seen it before. Also, selfishly made me miss Dick Luedke behind the mic. That's not a criticism against at all Fitz, it just different. We couldn't always get the Birds games on TV, so there were a lot of nights growing up where I'd have the JBC broadcast on. I was surprised to learn in this video that the 09-10 team was actually on TV 20+ times. I wouldn't have guessed that.

I prefer radio. Hard to beat someone who can paint a great picture via the sound waves. Luedke was really really good for so long. Not crazy about Fitz's postgame interviews.

BTW...when are we getting Luedke for the podcast?!! With the right questions, he'd be the most interesting interview regarding Redbird basketball.

On the radar!!

Agree 100% on post game show. We literally were talking about the post game and coach's show this afternoon.

Excellente and I figured as much with you studs running the show. I appreciate Fitz repping ISU, I do, but jmo...he pontificates way too much instead of asking good questions and getting the heck out of the way. As with CoachP, I'm hoping and assuming and believing he will get better.

You see them at ISU football, volleyball, men's basketball, and women's basketball games and
NOW you can see superfans Cindy and Jason on BirdFans4Ever podcast episode #30. Hear how they got to ISU, best moments at ISU, why Moline and St. Louis should be your destinations choices in March.

Our latest podcast was just posted and it's one of my favorite players - Shawn Jeppson. Tune in to hear him talk about a "pretty good game" shot selection, and of course THE SHOT against Drake in the MVC Tournament. We hope you enjoy the podcast and as always thanks for the support and feedback.

We just posted our most recent podcast this morning. Colton Sandage joins us and discusses several different topics including the long path to ISU, contrasting offenses from the programs he played, the impact of his injuries, and couple of the more memorable games this past season. His brother Brandon joins us at the end. Hope you enjoy and as always we appreciate the support and welcome your feedback.

Have a great Easter!!

We launched the BirdFans4Ever Podcast a year ago wondering if we would ever make it to podcast #2. It's been better than ever imagined due to the players, coaches, and others surrounding the program who have been willing to join us and share their stories. Mr Pemberton's unbridle entusiasm for the Podcast and Redbird sports is the catalyst behind this, but your support has been awesome and continues to fuel the fire. Jon Diener and I are lucky to be along for the incredible ride!!

We are going to celebrate 1 year by commemorating each episode from Dan Muller to Colton Sandage by reposting each episode on the hour over the next 32 hours. I know many don't have Twitter so you can go directly to this link to see the Podcasts


32 amazing guests the past year and we will continue to line up more in season 2. We have some ideas for the next season like having teammates in the same episode, live podcasts, and a few others ideas we are spit balling.

As always, thanks for the support and let us know some of your favorite episodes from the past year viaTwitter or this board.
