Bald, Bold & Gold

Do you like bye weeks? We honestly are not sure. Sure, it's less stressful to have a Saturday without having an Irish game, but is it the same? Either way, your 3 favorite hosts played the role of couch potatoes last Saturday and took in every game across the country so we could recap them for you. But that doesn't matter. It's USC week! The Trojans are coming to town, which means we have an extra...

Ah yes, the bye week. A time to relax and recover, right? WRONG. The fellas plans for the bye week included one thing: bringing you the best episode they have ever recorded. Of course, there is a recap of the absolute thriller in Blacksburg, with a huge focus on the QB "situation" and the pros and cons of going with each QB in the room. This is also not just a Notre Dame centric podcast. It may ha...

Well, if you are a rational Notre Dame fan (most of us are not), you knew a loss was coming at some point this season. That does not mean it still doesn't hurt. Your 3 favorite podcasters give their live reviews of what it was like to be in the stadium, what went wrong for the Irish, what can be fixed, and unfortunately, what cannot be fixed. It's a crazy season around the country in college footb...

4-0 is 4-0. But this time it was actually fun! Well, maybe for the last 15 minutes. Join Dono, Ian, and Tom as they dissect every aspect of the game -- from the still horrendous play of the o-line to the 2 (now 3?) quarterback system to the sudden turnaround of the defense. Of course, there's also the recap of what has suddenly become one of the weirdest college football seasons in recent memory....

Well... 3-0 is 3-0. The boys are back, this time with a special guest! Our podcast's Minister of Culture (Clare Durkin) phones into the pod to offer her thoughts on... a variety of things. Listen to find out (somewhere around the 45 minute mark?). We recap the (somewhat) improved Irish performance against Purdue, the games that happened around the country, and preview the enormous matchup against...

Yeah yeah I know. Probably the least exciting back to back stretch of the season... on paper. With this year's Irish team, who really knows what is going to happen on Saturday? I mean, what on earth transpired in South Bend last week? Are you still confused? Well, the BBG team is here for you (don't worry they are confused as well). This episode recaps what happened nationwide before a DEEP breakd...

Well, Irish Football is back. A W is a W, but Iet's be honest, it could have gone a lot better for our favorite team. We're sure you had a ton of thoughts about the game -- the 3 man front on D, the running game, etc.. The good thing is that we vent to each other so you don't have to! Dono, Ian, and Tom recap the thriller in Tallahassee and address all of the hot takes surrounding the 2021 team's...

Miss us? Forget about us? Who cares, we're back anyway. Your favorite Bald (and otherwise) podcasters are running it back for another season of BB&G. This episode is pretty straightforward -- Dono, Ian, and Tom talk the offseason, breakdown this year's ND team and our expectations, and run through the schedule. Is the audio quality better than last year? Maybe? Is that the reason why you're listen...

Well, the season is over. First of all, thank you to all of our faithful fans who have listened to this point, there will be much more to come in the future. In this episode, we answer the hard questions. Where does Notre Dame stand in the CFB landscape after yet another blowout bowl game loss? Is it even possible to win these games with the landscape the way it currently is? Could Tom lock up Jac...

Well... This Clemson recap was not quite as fun to record as the last one. Kick off your NYE festivities by listening to the fellas discuss what happened in Charlotte. Yeah, it wasn't good but at least this podcast slaps. Then, we turn our attention to facing the Goliath that is the Alabama Crimson Tide football team. Can Notre Dame win? If so, what has to happen? Listen and find out.. "Levels - R...

How is it Week 15? This season is blowing past us faster than Dono's hairline. Yikes, why is he writing that about himself. Nonetheless, we tell you everything you need to know about Clark Lea and the impending DC search, we break down the upcoming titanic matchup against Clemson, and we even take a look at ND's recruiting class and give our picks for favorite recruits in the class. As always, pic...

We have a very special episode of BB&G this week! Dono, Ian, and Tom are joined by their very first guest -- Will Smith! Yes, that Will Smith. The lifetime ND fan. Will joins us as we discuss the state of the program in 2020 before going off the rails a bit. Then, we give you the usual Bald, Bold & Gold content: discussing the CFB landscape, reviewing the Syracuse game, and instead of a slew of pi...

It's December and the season is winding down. Thankfully, the handsomest podcasters in the Notre Dame class of 2020 are back to warm your heart as the weather gets chilly. Dono, Ian, and Tom give their reactions to this week's CFP rankings, recap the impressive win over UNC, compare Ian Book to NBA players, and give their picks for this upcoming week. Don't forget to follow us on social media @Bal...

What do you think of when you think of Thanksgiving? It's pretty much the same for everyone -- food, family, football, and the Bald, Bold & Gold Podcast. Great episode this week as Dono, Ian, and Tom give their instant reactions to the first CFP rankings, preview the showdown with #19 North Carolina, and preview this year's ND Men's Basketball team at the end of the show.

Another week, another Irish win, and another spectacular episode of the podcast. Dono, Ian, and Tom are back to discuss the 45-31 win over BC that could have been a lot worse. After giggling about the state of the Michigan program, they discuss the recent play of Ian Book (12), whether this is Brian Kelly's best team at ND, and even field a starch related question. Stay tuned for picks at the end...

Instant Classic. No, we're not just talking about the Clemson game but also the podcast recapping it. Relive every moment of the win over the #1 Tigers with your favorite podcasters. Oh, there's also a little bit of discussion about other games in college football and the BC game this weekend. "Levels - Radio Edit" (1:10:47).

It's time. Your favorite podcasters are back with the episode of the year preview ND's matchup with the Clemson Tigers. Let's be honest, we've all been focused on this game since last January. The guys give a quick recap of the GT game this past Saturday before spending nearly an hour discussing every angle of this week's game. "Levels - Radio Edit" (1:23:36)

Just like this week's upcoming game, this could be seen as a trap podcast. Don't overlook us this week. After running through the games around the country, Dono, Ian, and Tom take a deep dive into the dismantling of Pitt last week (10:30). Then, there's a look ahead at the mighty 2-4 GT Yellow Jackets (35:00). Seems pretty straightforward right? Well, check out the Q&A to hear the connection betwe...

A slight switch-up of podcast structure in an effort to switch-up the product we have been seeing on the field as the guys take a different approach to assessing the Irish. A discussion of Wide Receiver issues that leads into a preview of the matchup at the Big Ketchup Bottle in Pittsburgh on Saturday. As always, we take on some of your boldest questions that culminated in a plea to stop Alpaca ab...

Just like the ND football team, this podcast is back at full strength. The guys take a quick peek around the country before giving the breakdown of the FSU game you didn't know you needed (13:20). Then, they turn forward to preview Louisville (40:30) before an interesting Q&A... would you rather be stranded on a desert island with Dono, Ian, or Tom (47:55)? Finally, picks (fade us) (55:30) and "Le...

After what seems like an eternity Irish football is back. After reviewing another great week of college football last week the guys turn to previewing the Florida State Seminoles and giving their keys to the game (18:24). Later, they delve into a Q&A session which hits on everything from desert islands to the mystery of RetroSportsGuy (34:35). They finish up with their picks of the week in what sh...

With not much to discuss regarding Irish football, Dono, Ian, and Tom turn their sights on ripping the Big 12 (3:07) before discussing the rest of the nation and how Ian Book may have done in a Mike Leach offense (24:07).
