This is the Dan Levatar Show with the Stugatz Podcast. Notre Dame down 44 at home. This is on track, not that Michael Shrewsbury wants to see this, to be Notre Dame's largest home loss since the fourth game in Notre Dame men's basketball history against the Chicago First Regiment. 64-8 was the final score. Why are you getting so excited? 1898. Why are you getting so excited? Who is the Chicago First Regiment?

What happened in the recent Notre Dame basketball game?

Unknown 0:41
Apparently, they had some hoopers on their squad. Now, see, that's nice, all right? She's the host of the Notre Dame podcast, The Echoes, out weekly with Mike Golick Jr. She is Jessica Smetana. Jessica, that was not nice. Come on. That's not the way we want to welcome you onto the show.
Jessica Smetana 0:58
I apologize. Guys, it's okay. I did not think the Notre Dame men's basketball team was going to beat Duke last night without Marcus Burton and Jalen Harrelson. Even with Marcus Burton and Jalen Harrelson, I didn't think this was going to be a close game.
Unknown 1:12
Not a great couple weeks for Michael Shrewsbury either, though.
Jessica Smetana 1:14
I've talked about this extensively in my podcast, and I can probably guess there's not very many Notre Dame men's basketball fans that listen to this show, so I'll keep it brief. But it hasn't been a good season since Marcus Burton's injury, which is disappointing because they started out with a few pretty nice games, had a couple good wins against Missouri and TCU, and then their best player gets hurt, and now their best freshman, who's the highest recruited player in Notre Dame history, is hurt. with an ankle injury, and so I don't think Micah Shrewsbury is going to get fired because I don't really think anyone wants to pay a buyout on a seven-year contract that he only signed three years ago, but it's been a really disappointing season, and it's a huge bummer for those few Notre Dame men's basketball fans out there that are still watching.
Unknown 2:02
And besides, we're waiting for the main event to return. You root for the second best team in Indiana in football. So you got that still to come. This is not an open invitation to talk about Indiana football. Hell no.
Jessica Smetana 2:15
Also, Notre Dame women's basketball is having a pretty good year, despite the fact that this is not really the most talented roster they've had anytime soon. So this is primarily a women's basketball.
Unknown 2:26
Oh, I guess we have to talk about them, too, or we'll get impeached.
Jessica Smetana 2:29
Why does everything need to be so negative? Everyone's looking for something negative to say all the time. Why everyone just wants to be negative now?
Unknown 2:38
Jessica, what are you doing now? Every morning you wake up and there's no more Olympics. You love the Olympics.
Jessica Smetana 2:45
I'm, like, going through withdrawal. Like, I have to wait till, like, 7 o'clock to watch sports. It's bullshit, Zazz. I hate it.
Unknown 2:52
It's bullshit. Which sport do you miss the most?
Jessica Smetana 2:55
Curling. I mean, guys, the fact that this Canadian men's curling team won the gold medal. Have you seen what they said after they won the gold medal and how just, like... Oh my God. I had to look these quotes up and make sure they were real because they were so like sassy. But one of the Canadian guys, he was the one that told the Swedish guy to F off when he got caught touching the stone.
Unknown 3:20
Yeah, he was accused of double touch. Double toucher.
Jessica Smetana 3:23
Correct. Cheat. He said a weaker team would have fell flat on their face after the week they had. And then another guy on the team said, for anyone who called us cheaters, for anyone who said negative things about Mark Kennedy, who was the other guy, about us, about Canada, about our families, I hope the image of us standing on top of the podium, embracing one another, smiling ear to ear with our gold medals is burned into your brain forever.
Unknown 3:47
Who knew there was so much shit talking with curling? Seriously. Right?
Jessica Smetana 3:51
It's intense, and I really do miss it. I miss all of it. It was a really fun two weeks.

How did injuries impact Notre Dame's basketball season?

Jessica Smetana 3:57
I wish you guys cared about it. You would have had fun, too.
Unknown 4:00
I haven't done it once. You can f*** me. Well, is anyone here well-versed in shuffleboard? Because I played shuffleboard a lot as a kid.
