Welcome back to another episode of the Irish Breakdown podcast brought to you by Fandul.

Happy Friday, everybody.

This is, we're a week away.

We are Notre Dame plays football next weekend.

We are less than 24, in 23 hours, there's going to be a football game on our TVs.

One day from right now, 24 hours from right now, we're going to be in the middle of the second quarter of Kansas State. We're going to be in the middle of seven hours. There's going to be a football game on our TVs. One day from right now, 24 hours from right now, we're going to be in the middle of second quarter of Kansas Day. We're going to be in the middle of second quarter of Farmer again, Trevor. Come on. I mean, come on, man. We got football starts tomorrow. We sure. I've never been so excited to watch a Stanford, Hawaii game of my life as I am right now, brother. there's no doubt about it. Let's roll. Well, you guys know how we get down here.

It's Friday, which means it's a Friday free-for-all mailbag here on the Irish Breakdown podcast. So if this does happen to be your first mailbag, what you're going to do, this is something that we love to do for our live listeners. So if you want a question or comment, set aside for Brian and I to discuss and

answer and talk about, either put a little mailbox emoji next to your question or comment,

or you can put MB for mailbag that lets us know to set it aside. This is free for all.

Now, ideally, we're sticking around Notre Dame, college football, recruiting topics,

but it's kind of the last big one of the off season. So if we get a food

question or if we get a question, it's a little bit off topic. You guys can go ahead and throw one

in two. Look, man. Both got the Ivy Nation shirts on, you know, oh yeah, we're rocking and

rolling. Before we dive into the actual mailbag, I did want to just quickly go over a couple

quick things real fast.

I had got a ton, a ton of people asking me about how my wife's doing and lots of prayers and support.

I got a text message this morning or DM this morning from Brandon Rouse, who listens to the show and literally just typed out a prayer over Angela

that I'll be reading to her when she wakes up today. So I really appreciate y'all. DJ asked the

same question. She's doing good. Surgy went as well as we hoped for. Got everything out that

they wanted to get out, found something else in there, got that out, got a clean bill of health,

and now it's just the rest in recovery. So she's up there taking a nap right now. My mother-in-law's in town to kind of help out, take care of her, but she's good. It went better. She's feeling better than we thought she was going to feel. She had got a lot of feedback about how rough the recovery is going to be and it may because she's still not 24 hours from when it was done. It's about 24 hours from it was done. So some of the nerve, you know, stifling stuff might be wearing off here today. But yeah, she's doing well and on the road to recovery. So thank you all so

much for that. Also, wanted to go over our next week. We'll start our new content plan, sort of. Once we get into the season,
