  • “It was Dentyne.” If you know the source of those three words, then you know our guest here on the 19nine podcast. 
  • It’s Buddy from the Hickory Huskers.
  • That’s right, the guy Norman Dale chucked from practice, the man who magically reappeared on the Huskers undermanned squad mid-season, and the quintessential glue guy on Hickory’s state title team in the 1986 film Hoosiers.
  • Brad Long joins us here on the 19nine podcast to talk about getting cast in the iconic film, making the movie alongside fellow Indiana-bred non-actors, and reflecting on “Hoosiers” continued fame 35 years after the film’s release.  
  • Brad, thanks for joining us here on the 19nine podcast.
