Episode 67: The Holiday Special: Best of Season 3 (feat. Niele Ivey + Full Cast)
Tuesday, 16 December, 2025

It’s the most wonderful time of the year on Wake Up the Echoes! In this nostalgic Holiday Special, Head Coach Niele Ivey stops by to chat about surviving finals week, the upcoming Bellarmine clash, and the much-needed "reset" awaiting the team over Christmas break. Then, pour yourself a hot cocoa as we settle in by the fire for a celebratory trip down memory lane, unwrapping the very best stories from Season 3. We’re revisiting the unforgettable saga of Coach Shrewsberry’s fashion choices (specifically the "boots" that had to go) along with Jeremiah Love’s deep dive into his "Jeremonstar" comic book universe. Plus, we look back at the inspiring moment Hannah Hidalgo opened up about her faith in teammate KK Bransford. From dining hall debates to Vegemite tastings, this episode is the perfect gift for every Fighting Irish fan looking to relive the laughter and magic of this season. 00:00:00 Intro 00:01:39 Tony Simeone & Niele Ivey 00:18:30 Get to Know (Best Of) 00:36:30 Subject Matter Expert (Best Of) 00:46:59 Tell Me a Story (Best Of) 01:03:18 From Santa! & Outro
