PeayCast

Welcome to the PeayCast! A disclaimer: because we record on Wednesday’s, sometimes things like defeating the No. 1 baseball team in the country will get left out; we’ll have plenty about that in next week’s show, but for this week we’ve got basketball Senior Days, Morgan Rackel pitching performances and plenty of Bailey DeHart, marketing assistant extraordinaire and this week’s guest. She’s hilari...

Audio Intro:...

Welcome to the PeayCast! The guys return from harrowing journeys to the frozen wasteland of the lower-Midwest. Maggie Knowles, Sabrina Richman and Savannah Amato were outstanding last week.
