Hosted by Jack Mitchell and Josh Peterson, the I-80 Club is a sprawling hub for Nebraska sports conversation that feels like grabbing a seat at the local spot after the game. This podcast network delivers regular, in-depth talk centered on Husker football and the wider college football landscape, with episodes dropping each Wednesday night and Saturday morning. But the conversation doesn't stop at the gridiron. The I-80 Club is also home to shows like the Nebrasketball Hour for hoops analysis, Volleyball State, and the Big Ten Breakdown, covering the conference at large. You'll find immediate reactions on After Nebraska Football, historical deep dives with Be Kind Husker Rewind, and the more personal, fan-focused stories of the Groin Kick Chronicles. The network also features the distinct voice of Mike Schaefer on Unemployed. It’s a comprehensive audio destination where passionate, detailed discussion about the teams along I-80 unfolds across a whole lineup of dedicated shows, all under one roof. Tune in for the kind of layered, fan-informed coverage that goes beyond the headlines.
