This week on the Five Heart Podcast, Greg rocks a solo show as the other two Legs of the Tripod are unavailable. Say hello to Beth Merrigan, Corn Nation's Volleyball Writer. In her Five Heart debut, Beth informs us that she's a Nebraska transplant (but not going anywhere) who has loved volleyball all her life, and just wants to talk volleyball all the time.And we're very cool with that. Beth is a mom of four, wife of one, proud Panhandle resident, Army Reservist, and grammar enthusiast (okay, I made that last part up, but we can hope). What does Beth think of the Husker volleyball team in 2019? Find out when you listen to the newest episode of the Five Heart Podcast.

This week on the show, Greg Hoss, and Jon talk about the silver lining that was the loss two years ago to the Northern Illinois Huskies. Why? Because we're previewing this season's Week Three match-up with the MAC Team. But there's also a lot of talk about the offensive line and position changes that helped bring about such depth. The defensive line gets some love too. And there's another citation involving a Husker and the sweet cheeba.

We have a change after only one episode. The podcast will be called Jon’s PostLife Crisis until we decide on another name in the future.In my second episode, I talk with Jake Kocorowski. Jake is formerly with the SBNation’s Wisconsin site - Bucky’s Fifth Quarter. He has recently moved to Rivals. I’ve known him for a few years now and reviewed a book he co-wrote about Walk-ons at Wisconsin. Jake and I talk about the difference in how Nebraska and Wisconsin fans approach game day. My position is that Nebraskans see football games as more of a religious event where for Wisconsin fans, it’s clearly a social event. You could have a healthy debate as to whether that’s true, and certainly both fan bases have similarities in how they handle game day with tailgating, and a fair amount of abiding in adult beverages as examples. I have heard from some Nebraska fans that have gone to Madison that the fans there were so terrible that they would never go back. I ask Jake to respond to that. We discuss the “Eat - you” chant that Wisconsin students do during their home games and on how were if that were to happen at Nebraska that half the University would be burned to the ground by angry alumni. We discus rivalries, particularly the idea you can have only one. Kind of like marriage. I hope you enjoy the show. This week there is in no transcription because I flat out ran out of time and it would be around 10,000 words, something I not sure you want to read on a website.Thanks for listening.

This week on the show, the guys have some fun with reports and quotes following Day One of Big Ten Media Days in Chi-Town. We took particular joy this week in making fun of Minnesota and their Head Coach PJ Fleck. Fleck, if you just tuned in, had this to say at the podium on Thursday.So after verbally abusing Minnesota (and Jon for reasons found within), we turn our attention to our Week 2 opponent, Colorado, with a lot less analysis than Husker Mike and pretty much just raw emotion. And there's a pretty special cameo at the end. Want a sweet Five Heart shirt?

Summary: I’ve decided to launch my own podcast. Right now, it has the dumbest name conceivable, “The Jon Johnston Show”. I’d like your feedback on what to name it. Right now, there are really two options: “The Jon Johnston Show” “Jon’s Post-Life Crisis” At the end of this article is a poll. Vote in it. I know we don’t get a lot of comments on podcast articles, but I expect comments as well. I’m open to suggestions. I talk about why I’m starting a podcast. I talk about what happened when I died. I talk about how your dying brain is like a warehouse on fire. And I hate peanut butter. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
