A passionate Hawkeye. A passionate Cyclone. Two (weird) Guys, featuring longtime friends Chris Hassel and Chris Williams. Live every Monday and Thursday at 8:30 CT, presented by Fareway Meat and Grocery.
Longtime friends Chris Williams & Chris Hassel talk all things Cy-Hawk and more twice a week on Iowa Everywhere. This show launched in the summer of 2022 and has grown into one of the most popular podcasts in the state. Sometimes filled with sophomoric banter, Chris and Chris take pride in not taking themselves too seriously and having a lot of fun. Pull up a chair and join the fellas on what is always promised to be a wild ride.
Chris Hassel grew up a Hawkeye fan in Muscatine and spent the first 3 decades of his life in Iowa. After 5 years at WHO-TV in Des Moines, he went to ESPN, where he anchored SportsCenter for nearly 5 years.
Since 2017, he has been an anchor at CBS Sports HQ. He has also been a play-by-play voice for CFB and CBB on CBS Sports Network, ESPN, Stadium, and Learfield.
Chris Williams is a dynamic force in the media world, wearing many hats as a writer, podcaster, marketer, advertiser, mentor, publisher, and business owner. Since launching CycloneFanatic.com in 2009, Chris has built it into the largest online community for Iowa State Cyclones fans, cementing his reputation as a leader in sports media.
His passion for media extends beyond athletics, driving him to launch 712 Media—a venture that helps businesses enhance their brands. Through 712 Media, Chris brought to life another ambitious project: Iowa Everywhere, a site dedicated to all things college athletics. The projects didn’t end there because he also made his dream come true by launching Always Race Day, a site dedicated to all things auto racing.
A proud 2007 graduate of Iowa State’s Greenlee School of Journalism, Chris is also deeply invested in his personal passions. He’s an avid auto racing enthusiast, enjoys reading books that challenge him, and smoking meats. Off the air, Chris is busy juggling life with his two young daughters, Camryn and Elyse, and their new golden retriever puppy, Diffie—named after the great Joe Diffie—all while his wife, Ashley, rolls her eyes at his antics.
Matt Van Winkle is the co-host of “All Access” and producer of “Two Guys” on the Iowa Everywhere network. He is an avid sports and music fan and can typically be found at Wells Fargo Arena, catching all the great events that come through Des Moines!
