Walking on With C. Hayes

BLLLAAAAHHHH! And AHHH! We dig deep to stay focused on Miami Hurricane Football for this one. Sports! Go Canes!

We recap a ho-hum football game, where the biggest highlight probably came after the game by Mario at the podium. Mama Hayes gives a great shoutout to Mark Fletcher and the week he had last week. Of course we round out with some College Football Trivia that Mama Hayes is all over. Go Canes!

We're a little more timely this week to chat about Miami's win over Louisville! We do our best to talk about more than just Cam Ward. Mama Hayes crushed College Football trivia, and we bring back the Cornbread Award with the Red Beans and Chocolate Chip Muffins. Go Canes!

It took us two weeks to calm down and finally recap that Cal game! Mama Hayes gives an update on how she's doing after Hurricane Milton and we chat about the progress on Suicide prevention. We transition as smooth as we can back into some College Football Trivia! Go Canes!

We recap a WILD Friday night game between Virginia Tech and the Miami Hurricanes. We even forgot what happened at the start of the game! Mama Hayes has fun tidbits, showing off her research skills. We discuss the crazy start time to the upcoming Miami vs. Cal game. GoCanes!

Is a four hour college football game too long?! Not when Miami is playing well! In a game like this, there are too many options for Mama Hayes's RBR and BCCM awards. We bring back college football trivia because Mom loved it (and definitely did not see the questions before the segment). Go Canes!

It looks like Miami might have a QB...but we want to keep it quiet for now (shhhhh!). We recap three weeks worth of Miami games and officially open the Vancouver Studios. Mama Hayes gives out one of her coveted "Mom Awards" on top of all the Red Beans and Rice and Chocolate Chip Muffins. Go Canes!

Once again, we have a renewed sense of hope for Miami Football after another successful offseason for the Canes! Maybe...maybe this year it will translate into the real season and bring Mama Hayes and I a lot of joy. I quiz Mom on all the changes in college football, and she brings her A game! Go Canes!

Miami played in bowl game..but of course lost another bowl game. Mama Hayes and I go out on a higher note than the 2023 Canes and get everyone pumped to win another off-season! Go Canes!

Like Miami's offense we figured out all the issues this week and brought a strong performance. Mama Hayes recaps a big Canes W and predicts who will be in the CFP top 10 rankings on Tuesday! Go Canes!

Half the audio got lost from our recording, so you'll miss Mama Hayes Red Beans and Rice AND her amazing breakdown about the College Football Playoff. Happy Thanksgiving!!!

That was fun but it also stings. Mama Hayes gushes over the defense and I share my frustration with the second half play calling. We also surprise Mom with the CFP Rankings and have her react. Go Canes!

Not much to say about this game. Mama Hayes and I recap it all in 20 minutes! I introduce a new award while Mama Hayes struggles to hand out any, good teamwork by us. We talk about the college games we could've watched and hope you did!

Mama Hayes is here to recap the UVA and her experience at Hard Rock Stadium! She was thrilled but terrified the entire game. After some awards are handed out, we LIVE REACT to the College Football Rankings...there are many Mama Hayes "Woahs!" Go Canes!

MIAMI BEAT CLEMSON FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 13 YEARS!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH and AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Mama Hayes called the win and was only off by a few points! Go Canes!

Mama Hayes demands that we bring energy this episode! We recap a solid first half by the Canes and a...not as a good second half. We welcome in new listeners from across the pond and go over a fun college football weekend if you are not a Canes fan.

Notes on the podcast rundown... Segment 1 TAKE A KNEE! Segment 2 TAKE A KNEE! Segment 3 TAKE A KNEE!

We clean up a couple of items we didn't get to in the first episodes of season 6. Mama Hayes gives a great recap of the Ole Miss vs. LSU exciting finish. She also roasts the production quality of the ACC Network!

Mama Hayes is impressed by the rushing attack, offensive line, and the WR's blocking downfield! It's the little thing. She has a long list of candidates for award winners but still only picks two. We discuss the blowout in Eugene, the walk-off games, and the history made at Shenandoah University!

Mama Hayes and I are more back than the University of Miami Football team. We recap our the 3-0 start (which is mainly the Texas A&M Game). Mama Hayes finally reveals her criteria for the Red Beans and Rice and Chocolate Chip Muffin awards. And we introduce a new segment...Talkin' College Ball!

Miami did it! First program to be in trouble with the NCAA over NIL. Would it be anyone else? Mom and I discuss and finally recap Mario's recruiting haul. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Mama Hayes and I have not moved on well from the MTSU loss the other week. After a quick preview of the upcoming UNC game, we deal with our pain by accepting our pain. We do a good ole-fashioned top 5 list and take a look back at the 5 most frustrating non-conference losses since the Canes joined the ACC.

Mama Hayes and I are finally back to kickoff the college football and Miami football season in...WEEK 3! We talk about the start of another new coaching era in Coral Gables for the 17th time in 9 years. After a couple attempts, we finally get Mama Hayes's thoughts on TVD's start to the season. We explain the origins of the Red Beans and Rice and Chocolate Chip Muffin awards (we come up with a new award for REALLY special performances). As usual, we break down the upcoming matchup vs. Texas A&M and we'll be there for it! Go Canes!

If you like pets interrupting your podcast listening, this is the episode for you! It's a real quick Duke recap so Mama Hayes and I can get into the big news around the University of Miami football team. We look back at the Manny Diaz era, what went right and what could've been. We talk about Mario Cristobal coming back to the Canes (don't tell him he was Mom's second choice) and the Dan Radakovich hire as the Athletic Director. Go Canes!

Mama Hayes and I take time out of Thanksgiving Day to thank our listeners and talk NFL Football....just kidding, we of course talked Miami Football. We recap the VaTech game and what impressed us. Mom once again just makes her own rules for the Red Beans and Chocolate Chip Muffins. There is not much to preview on the Duke game, so we discussed who we liked as potential AD and Head Coach replacements. Go Canes!

Mama Hayes grabs a second glass of wine for this taping as we discuss the debacle at the end of the FSU game. She still stays positive and finds recipients for the Red Beans and Rice and the Chocolate Chip Muffins. We then discuss the news of Blake James and the University of Miami parting ways, possible candidates, and that the athletic department needs a bigger vision. Go Canes!

If you listen to any of this, skip to the 8 minute mark to listen to the mind bending explanation and confusion about the 2-point interception return. It is content gold! Mama Hayes and I talk about Miami's win against Georgia Tech and that it should not have been as close. We preview FSU and Mama Hayes hopes this time her Red Beans and Rice recipient does not transfer by the next recording of this podcast! Go Canes!

Mama Hayes and I break down the Canes big road win against Pitt. We talk about the impressive play by the freshman, specifically James Williams and Tyler Van Dyke. Somehow we stumble into spreads and over/under talk. Do not take our sports betting advice! Go Canes!

We know, we have not been consistent on episodes! It's been busy. But so have the Canes, winning against a team from North Carolina but losing to a team from North Carolina the past two weeks. Mama Hayes and I caught up on the UNC and NC State games. We highlight the freshmen that are making an impact, and Mom gives out her awards for both games. She also introduces new terms that all football commentators should start adding to their broadcasts. Go Canes!

We're back! Mama Hayes and I talk about the state of the Miami Football and Athletics program. We try to figure out what the rest of the season might look like. For the dog lovers out there, Maise makes sure to chime in on almost every point, making it a lot of fun to edit this episode! Our predictions for the UNC game are pretty bleak and I make another season prediction. Go Canes?

Mama Hayes and I try to make sense of the Michigan State loss. There are not many good words about this game and program at the moment. I make a bold prediction and Mama Hayes has the shortest Red Beans and Rice / Chocolate Chip Muffin segment ever! Maybe we should start following a new team? Go Canes!

Mama Hayes uses one word to describe Miami's performance against Appalachian State, inconsistent. We recap another slow Miami start and barely walking away with a victory. We do comment on NOT being Florida State and how lucky we are. Previewing the Michigan State game, we realize that their strength's are going against Miami's weaknesses. Should be another Cardiac Canes experience! Go Canes!

Mama Hayes and I recap the tough loss to Alabama. Mom actually finds some positive out of the game. Some of them are reasonable and some are a...stretch. The Red Beans and Rice / Chocolate Muffins return and we predict the App State game. Go Canes!

Mama Hayes and I are back to kickoff Season 4 of Walking on With Chris Hayes. We preview what the Hurricanes will look like this year and that it should be ACC Coastal or bust. We try to talk ourselves into the Canes beating Alabama, find out if we get there! Happy to back and ready for another Hurricanes football season! Go Canes!

Izzy and Mama Hayes wrap up their discussion on the WNBA and complete the first season of Talking IX with Mama Hayes! YEAH! Go women sports!

In the first of two episodes, Mama Hayes and Izzy talk about the WNBA! Chris is out for this and next two podcasts, probably for the better.
