This week on Y’s Guys, Dave McCann and Blaine Fowler gear up for Big 12 Media Days and look back at an unforgettable BYU football season with the show’s Top Ten Moments of 2024 countdown. From Will Ferrin’s last-second game-winner vs. Utah to Parker Kingston’s 90-yard punt return vs. Kansas State, the hosts relive the wildest highlights, including kickoff return heroics, trick plays, and fourth-quarter magic. It’s a celebration of BYU’s grit, speed, and playmaking from wire to wire.
Football headlines continue as the team previews the Cougars’ delegation heading to Frisco, Texas for Media Days. Chase Roberts, LJ Martin, Keanu Tanuvasa, Isaiah Glasker, and Jack Kelly will represent the team as storylines swirl around the quarterback battle, the post-Retzlaff locker room dynamic, and BYU’s potential Big 12 rise. Athlon Sports preseason honors are stacking up for BYU, and their 2026 recruiting class is already the highest-rated in program history—trailing only Texas Tech in Big 12 rankings.
Guest interviews add personality and inspiration to the show. Parker Kingston, preseason All-American return man and breakout wide receiver, joins live to discuss the quarterback room, his legendary punt return touchdown, and who Cougar Nation should watch for this fall. Later, Gary Heaton stops by to preview the Ephraim Hope Charity Golf Tournament in support of children’s education in Uganda. Finally, Chef Chad Pritchard, founder of Fat Daddy’s Pizza, dishes on feeding the Cougars, BYU fandom in Texas, and the art of pizza and perseverance.
The episode closes with an Olympic-caliber update on AJ Dybantsa, fresh off an MVP run with Team USA at the FIBA U19 World Cup, and shout-outs to rising stars like Delaney Gibb and Jane Hedengren. Egor Demin’s NBA Summer League debut is just days away. Throw in some birthday trivia, a Jim Gaffigan quote, and a shoutout to sliced bread, and you’ve got another lively mix of football, faith, and fun from the biggest BYU livestream in the world.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
