## Resource

In the first episode of The Badger Connect Podcast, host Mike Heller sits down with Wisconsin Football Head Coach Luke Fickell and his wife Amy. The conversation goes beyond football, covering family life, leadership, their transition to Madison, and the people and values that shape the Wisconsin program. Mike and the Fickells share stories that Badger fans don’t usually get to hear. New episodes of The Badger Connect Podcast drop every Thursday and feature conversations with Badger players, coaches, and personalities.
