On today's show I sat down with my colleague Cheyne Reiter to preview Final Four weekend in downtown Indianapolis. At the end, we tried some sweet surprises from our friends at Glover's Ice Cream.

We discuss why Indianapolis is an Elite March Madness host compared to other cities across the country. We then break down the four teams coming to Indy – UConn, Illinois, Michigan, and Arizona – highlighting each program's Final Four history and key storylines, including Hoosier ties like UConn freshman Braylon Mullins who graduated from Greenfield-Central, and Illinois players Ben Humrichous from Tipton and Jake Davis from Indianapolis Cathedral, plus Michigan coach Dusty May's Indiana roots.

Beyond the court, we highlight the many fan festivities, including free concerts featuring Twenty One Pilots, Zac Brown Band, Megan Moroney and Post Malone at the outdoor American Legion Mall, the Swish Arts and Culture Festival, Fan Fest, Tip-Off Tailgate and more.

The show concludes with our taste test of two new flavors from Glover's Ice Cream: Hoosier Pothole and Indiana Sugar Cream Pie. They'll be available across the state this summer!
