OFD Podcast: Notre Dame’s strong ceiling and RELEASE THE AIR KELLY

Joshua welcomes back the original Podfather, Irish Tightness (or just a guy named Wes) to talk about the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football program. In this episode — well... there’s a lot going on here, and in our historically typical fashion, we jump around quite a bit. Here are some keywords:

• Brian Kelly.
• Ian Book.
• Ceiling construction.
• #RTDB
• Air Kelly.
• Many Charlie Weis references.
• Recruiting wide receivers.
• Some guy named Kyren Williams.
• Next man in on the coaching staff.
• Marcus Freeman.
• Jeff Quinn.
• Best good team VS worst great team.
• Bronzing BK’s boots.
• That Clemson game.
• Looking at 2026 — kind of.

And plenty more weaved in and out of the show.
