Folks...you simply can't miss this one. Hear George Gipp discussed in a manner seldom heard when Alex is joined by author/Notre Dame alumnus Bill Fuller!
Bill wrote 'The Forever Year', a historical fiction/romance novel about the Gipper and the mysterious relationship he had with Iris Trippeer over the last year of his life. As a pleasant bonus, hear Alex eat a bit of crow and explain why you should never judge a book by its cover as he gives his personal review.
Given their respective knowledge on the Gipper, Alex and Bill are able to hold a conversation about who may be one of the most misunderstood sportsmen in American history with a vigor and eloquence rarely heard.
Enjoy this one, Irish fans!
