Cody and Jacob take Hey Fightin' Podcast to South Stadium Studio for the first time to preview fall camp, recap SEC Media Days and talk position battles ahead of LSU's fast-approaching Aug. 4 report date.

Chris Blair and Kent Lowe sit down for the inaugural episode of the Play by Play, featuring LSU's Assistant AD/NIL & Strategic Initiatives Taylor Jacobs. With the fall season quickly approaching, Chris and Kent preview LSU Soccer, LSU Volleyball and more, as well as reaction of last week's Maravich Statue unveiling. Taylor talks NIL and answers some frequently asked questions regarding the current NIL landscape. 

GOLD is here. Cody Worsham and Emily Dixon are live from South Stadium Studio for the first time to talk about GOLD's launch, the unrivaled content that will follow, and the unprecedented, behind-the-scenes access that fans will now have to their favorite LSU teams, including LSU football, all year long.

(Note: We experienced some minor technical difficulties with Hester's audio, who joined us live from his hotel room in Atlanta, so bear with us for this edition.)

For the final time in the 2021 season, Cody and Hester gather (slightly later than usual) for a Hurry Up to break down LSU's 42-20 loss to Kansas State in the Texas Bowl. 

We discuss Jontre Kirklin's return to the quarterback position, Brad Davis' leadership and impact as interim head coach, some guys who stood out for an undermanned squad, the pride shown by the players who finished what they started, and more.

After talking about the game itself, we pivot to the future under Brian Kelly, how his new staff – including OC Mike Denbrock and DC Matt House – will impact the Tigers, Myles Brennan's return, and more. 

Brian Kelly, the new head coach for LSU Football, makes his Hey Fightin' Podcast debut. 

First, he talks with Cody Worsham about his roots in coaching, his values as a leader, and how he instills those at LSU. 

After that, Coach Kelly sits down with Emily Dixon for a conversation on the task at hand in Baton Rouge. 

Cody and Jacob jumped onto Twitter Spaces live to react to LSU's hiring of Brian Kelly. 

Fellow Assumption alum Cole Tracy hops on early to give his take on another Hound bound for BR.

Then Hester and Cody break down Kelly's resume, his first tasks on the job, the importance of winning the first team meeting, and so much more. 

Cody and Jacob are grateful for LSU's win over Texas A&M, Coach O's joyful farewell, Jaray Jenkins' unforgettable night, Max Johnson's moxie, Damone Clark's leadership, the Tigers' fight, and our loyal listeners. 

LSU spread it out against ULM, using 5 man protections and Empty sets to kick the passing game into gear. Cody and Jacob break down the film and numbers to see what worked and how it might apply against A&M Saturday. 

Then Hester goes inside the film room with Max Johnson to talk about his best plays of the season. 

A slightly different Hurry Up this week, as Cody and Jacob provide a running diary of LSU's 27-13 win over UL-Monroe.

Topics include Malik Nabers' monster day, the freshman wideouts leading the way, Max Johnson's progress, the red zone struggles, close calls near the goal line, and a heated debate over carrot souffle and sweet potato pie that might threaten the existence of the podcast in the future.
