In this bonus episode, host Todd Harris (USA) sits down with sports commentator and "Voice of the Cougars" Greg Wrubell to preview the annual March Madness basketball tournament.
They discuss why it's one of the biggest events on the American sporting calendar, the new era of college sports, and the BYU Cougars' chances of a tournament run.
Here is a breakdown of the main topics:
The March Madness Phenomenon: A discussion on why the tournament is a billion-dollar enterprise, drawing in fans with its "Cinderella stories" and bracket-busting upsets.

Inside a College Program: As a commentator for the BYU Cougars, Greg gives us his take on the team's chances, their NBA-style offence, and why the 8-9 seed line is considered "cursed" in the tournament.
