The Aztecs had gone to bowls 12 times in 13 seasons from 2010 through 2022. The interruption to that streak came in 2020, when it withdrew from consideration in the COVID-shortened 2020 season.

Comedian, New York Times Best Selling Author, Emmy-winning journalist, musician and creator of the viral sensation, The Manitowoc Minute, Charlie Berens has announced his LOST & FOUND TOUR. His latest Good Old Fashioned Tour played 127 shows in 88 cities and was shot as a follow-up special to his 2023 one hour debut, Midwest Goodbye. This string of success has led to his New York Times Best Seller "The Midwest Survival Guide" being optioned for TV development and three sold out nationwide stand-up comedy tours. In his free time, Charlie hosts the Cripescast podcast where he has meaningful conversations with a wide range of guests, including musicians, headlining comedians, dairy farmers, groundbreaking scientists, government officials, world-renown chefs, artists, business leaders, sports Hall of Famers, explorers, Olympians, and creators about their story and connections to the Midwest. In addition to Cripescast, Charlie also co-hosts the Bellied Up podcast w/ “Myles The You Betcha Guy” where the two of them belly up at a small-town bar every Thursday and take live calls from all over the Midwest and rest of the world. In 2020, Charlie paired up with Horseshoes & Hand Grenades alum Adam Greuel to release the music/comedy album, "Unthawed." The album, which is a mixture of bluegrass, country, and Charlie’s comedy, hit #1 on the Billboard Bluegrass chart and #6 on the Bluegrass Comedy chart. The duo followed that up with "Dive Bar Dinner" in 2023, which also charted on the Billboard Charts. Most recently, he was featured in a nationwide Target campaign, served as the ambassador for Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin’s Annual Food for the Holidays Campaign and launched Berens Old Fashioned Brandy which is in stores across Wisconsin.
