Pete Buttigieg Joins The Echoes! ND Star WR Malachi Fields + Navy Recap & Pitt Preview | The Echoes

On this week’s episode of The Echoes: A Podcast on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Mike Golic Jr. and Jessica Smetana are joined by former South Bend Mayor and U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, plus star wide receiver Malachi Fields. Mike and Jess kick things off by breaking down Notre Dame’s dominant 49–10 win over Navy — the team’s seventh straight victory — and preview this weekend’s tricky matchup against Pitt. Despite what head coach Pat Narduzzi says, it’s a big one, and ESPN’s College GameDay will be in town for it. Then, Mayor Pete joins the show to talk all things Notre Dame and South Bend. He shares his thoughts on Marcus Freeman, his favorite moments inside Notre Dame Stadium, and how the relationship between the city and the university has evolved over the years. Later, Malachi Fields stops by to discuss his unique perspective as a Virginia standout facing Notre Dame, what it’s like being in the opposing locker room, and how he handled playing in his first-ever snow game. Finally, Mike and Jess close things out by looking ahead to the rivalry matchup against Pitt — a game that always brings memories (and a few nightmares) for Golic. Plus, it’s a big week for both men’s and women’s basketball teams this week with two heavyweight matchups.
