The Assembly Call IU Basketball Podcast and Postgame Show

Thursday night's incredible IU victory over Iowa inside of a raucous Assembly Hall was so much fun that we decided to hop online for an impromptu postgame show, since the Doing The Work postgame show had to be rescheduled to Friday.

So Jerod and Coach do their best to break down the tough, passionate, smart performance Indiana delivered against Caitlin Clark and Iowa -- turning one of the greatest women's basketball players of all-time into the most inefficient version of herself. Every starter -- led by Mackenzie Holmes -- contributed a big performance, and the bench stepped up as well.

Honestly, it's just a fun, free-wheeling, happy postgame show. For those of you longtime listeners, it may remind you a bit of the early years for ... a variety of reasons. ;-) But man, it's just a fun conversation about a damn fun basketball game to watch between two damn good teams. And that felt good again.

What a weekend it was.

On the one hand, the basketball was terrible. Indiana got drilled on its homecourt by a Penn State team that played smarter, harder, and more together. Indiana was good for 15 minutes, then listless thereafter.

On the other hand, for us personally, it was an incredible weekend filled with friends, great food and drinks, and time spent in the best college town on earth. So it may not have been a win for the Hoosiers, but it sure was a win for us!

In this episode, you'll hear a few pieces of audio:

To start, a quick intro setting up the audio and getting a few housekeeping notes out of the way (including why you won't be seeing Jerod as much over the next month).

Then (8:15) you'll hear the live reaction audio Jerod and Ryan recorded in the car while making their way to Upstairs.

And finally (30:03), you'll hear the live audio from Upstairs, which includes some additional postgame reaction, audience Q&A, and brief chats with all of the Back Home Network show hosts -- including Galen in rare form that you won't want to miss.
