In this lighthearted and laughter-filled episode of the Five Heart Podcast, Greg and Minnie celebrate a trio of birthdays: Minnie’s middle daughter who turned 13, America’s birthday, and Greg’s upcoming birthday—all while embracing the off-season Husker vibes. The crew dives deep into a uniquely Husker tradition: reliving bonehead plays that, in hindsight, no longer hurt. From Scott Frost’s infamous onside kick call in Ireland to Jake Cotton’s slow-motion false start and the 2021 punt to the wrong side of the field, they revel in shared suffering with the chat.
A surprise highlight of the night is the debut of a patriotic-themed Five Heart Theatre sketch featuring “Uncle Sam” (Minnie) and “Coach Tom Osborne” (Greg), which earns rave reviews from the live audience.
