The Beacon Street Buzz

This week, it's bigger than football. In the Annual Welles Crowther Red Bandana Game, BC football hosts a national powerhouse, the no. 3 Florida State Seminoles, for the third straight game on their home turf. Will we shock the world, rain or shine? Giovanni, Nick and Jackson are joined by new writer Alden Hunold as they discuss whether Coach Hafley and the Eagles have a miracle in them. For Welle...

Nick, Giovanni, Paul and Timmy recap Boston College football's home loss to NIU, look ahead as the Eagles host in-state rivals Holy Cross, and talk a little NFL before making some Week 2 picks on the second episode of Season 2. #LetsGetBuzzin

After a long summer's wait, we are finally back: both The Beacon Street Buzz and (more importantly) BC Football return this week as Giovanni, Pepper, Jimmy, Noah, Jackson and Nick welcomed sophomore RB Alex Broome to the show for a second time. In this episode, we get Alex thoughts about how the Eagles will look to improve in 2023, and about what personal and team goals he's set for this year. We...

In our season finale, we complete a home-and-away with Dean Kaduboski, host of the Dean’s List podcast. We share and talk with Dean about what it’s like managing a podcast here at BC in an epic final show of the 22-23 school year. Listen on for some of the edited-out secrets of the first year of The Beacon Street Buzz

As the Buzz winds down and BC Birdball gears up for a playoff push, we sat down with second baseman Patrick Roche for our second baseball show of the season. Pat talked with us about his team’s mentality after a recent cold stretch, their preparations for the ACC Tournament, and the best nicknames on the team.

As the Eagles geared up for Marathon Monday at BC, we realized that there was no better person to talk to this week than one of BC’s comedy pioneers. Senior Will Donnellon, who has done work with Friday Beers, The New England Classic and Hello Shovelhead, joined the Buzz this week to talk Mar Mon as well as literally anything else but Mar Mon. From spending time with Matt King in LA to joining the...

Me when the boys finally get a hockey guest ("Hooray"-Nick Petralia). For one of our best interviews yet, BC hockey's first ever black captain and future NHL-er Marshall Warren joined the Buzz for an electric puck show. We talked with Marsh about the highlights of his career with the Eagles, how figure skating helped him shred on the ice and more. The Cap even makes a big request of the BC faithfu...

The buzz is back with a none interview episode where the crew recaps both BC's hockey and basketball seasons. As well, they discuss the continuing campaigns for both women's lacrosse and the surprisingly hot baseball team. To close out the episode Pepper tries to impress the guys with her newly found sports knowledge. It definitely was knowledge.

After an electric spring break, the boys are buzzing for St. Patty’s day as we’re joined by BC Birdball’s star freshman catcher, Adonys Guzman. We chat with Adonys about his team’s 10-game win streak, his baseball origins, why he thinks the World Baseball Classic is bigger than the World Series and to look forward to the team’s upcoming matchup against Florida State down in Tallahassee. Pepper lea...

Women’s. Lacrosse. School. In a night of firsts, the guys (joined by new member Pepper Green on the mic) sat down with BC lax sophomore attacker Mckenna Davis to talk about the team’s start to the year, some of her favorite lacrosse memories and her BC experience away from the turf. McKenna even shares her go-to dodge…opponents beware: even if you hear it, there’s no stopping it.

It officially sucks to BU again-the guys return to the table to review hockey’s bronze-medal (you're welcome Timmy) performance in the Beanpot. Coach Grant and basketball have dropped two straight-but we ride. We discuss Quinten Post’s recent showings and how he and the team can keep the momentum going as they prepare to host Virginia. And for women’s lax, Northwestern is the only thing standing b...

Greg Brown and the boys can’t figure it out on the ice, while Earl Grant and co. continue to rack off big wins. The guys talk through the killer beanpot loss to Harvard, basketball’s sweep of Virginia Tech, and, finally, the start of women’s lax season. Please bring us a championship.

Double. Digits. The guys review BC-BU and preview the Beanpot matchup vs Harvard. We talk basketball’s big win over Clemson as well as preview the football team’s schedule for 2023. Timmy likes his slides.

It’s BU hate week, and who better to ring in the battle of Comm Ave than the Prophet of Parm himself: John Buccigross. The renowned ESPN NHL analyst and play-by-play broadcaster joins the Buzz to preview BC-BU, talk some cawlidge hawkey, reflect on his career at SportsCenter and share a great golf story. And no, there was no chicken parm consumed in the making of this show.

The boys are buzzin'...the guys return to the studio for the first time in a month to review BC hockey and basketball's performance while also looking ahead to the spring semester.

We're back with another big night on the Buzz (as Giovanni likes to say so often). Giovanni, Nick and Jackson sat down with freshman RB Alex Broome to talk over BC football and Alex's first season on the Heights, and learn an interesting bit about the infamous athletes' scooter.

We are SO back. The Buzz returns after a week break as BC football's disappointing season comes to an end. This week we review the season and look forward to next year (albeit a little early). The guys are joined by Jake Lazarus (host of Strictly Auburn and Laz Sports ) to talk some college ball, make Heisman predictions, and pick the Championship weekend games. With some philosophical analysis fr...

After arguably the greatest weekend in BC sports history, the guys emphatically review the big wins for football, basketball, hockey and rugby. Ahead of Notre Dame week, we discuss how the Eags can have a fighting chance in South Bend. In the holiday spirit, Giovanni shares a controversial take about his favorite Thanksgiving food. Play like Morehead today.

Two in row! After an awesome interview yesterday, the guys turn right back around and look ahead to BC football's next opponent: NC State. But perhaps the biggest buzz around campus is the dawn of the Prince: the guys dive into the opening night win for men's basketball. Help us Prince Aligbe, you're our only hope.

On the first Brief Buzz, the guys are joined by two of the young stars of the undefeated BC Rugby Club: freshmen Eamon Coffey and Pat McMahon. As they prepare for their conference championship game, Pat and Eamon chat about their season, what's next, and, of all things, food.

Last show, Giovanni said we’d have an interview: then BC got UCONN’d. The guys pivot to a review of what the hell happened and a look ahead as Riley Leonard and Duke come to Alumni for the last home game of the season. We are sad.

The guys talk about BC's performance last week against Wake, along with their upcoming game against UCONN. They also dive into some of the other games of the week and often go off topic.. Real off topic..

Let’s get buzzin! The guys introduce themselves and the show before getting into the Eagles’ matchup down in Winston-Salem against Sam Hartman and 14 Wake Forest. Winners were picked and bets were hammered on a lively first night on the Buzz. Intro Credit: Phoenix-1901 (copyright)
