Long time, no pod! Today we are back and better than ever to talk to the one and only Phil Cooley, a Jesuit in First Studies at Loyola. We muse about faith, Loyola 360, basketball, and where to find Chicago's best pizza. Phil recounts the birth of DJ Philly Wonka, and we revisit the iconic evening that was Jesuit Jam 2022. The Loyola Men's Basketball team faces off against Saint Joseph's in the 2023 Jesuit Jam on February 8, 2023 at 8 pm. The Jesuit Jam festivities begin at 6 pm in the Damen Student Center. You can find DJ Philly Wonka's music here: https://www.youtube.com/@philipcooley9360. You can watch this year's Jesuit Jam video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jndWTP5Ds70.

Sorry for the terrible audio quality of this episode. Life happens, microphones stop working, and you have to roll with the punches. Anyway, welcome back to another episode! This week, I am joined by three of my closest college friends : Mandi, Sky, and Ian (a.k.a. the UNIV group). We discuss what brought us to Loyola, how we became friends, and how excited we are for intramural kickball playoffs. We also reveal our first impressions of each other and how we see our friendship growing in the future. As always, thank you for listening, rating, reviewing, following, subscribing, etc. Much love!
