The Interviews

Wilde and Tausch are joined by Brewers broadcaster Jeff Levering! He tackles calling games on a fault line, why fans shouldn't be worried about the Crew right now, Jesse & Murph's feud, plus much more!

Jason Wilde joins Jen, Gabe and Chewy to break down several key Packers storylines, starting with Micah Parsons’ recovery timeline and why Green Bay should stay patient rather than rush him back too early. He also discusses why Desmond Ritter appears to be the favorite to back up Jordan Love entering training camp, even if the Packers are not ready to publicly say it outright. Wilde explains that Green Bay is giving Ritter a real runway in the offense, much like they once did with Malik Willis. The conversation also dives into the Packers’ offensive line outlook, with Wilde saying the current group is likely the one Green Bay plans to take into camp, while acknowledging there could still be competition at a few spots. He also praises the Jayden Reed extension as a bargain for the Packers, arguing that the deal is team-friendly if Reed simply stays healthy and maintains his current level of production. The segment wraps with Wilde explaining the unusual Steelers move involving Aaron Rodgers and why Pittsburgh’s “right of first refusal” setup appears to be more about protecting draft compensation than forcing Rodgers onto the roster.

The Brewers are just over .500 — and somehow, that’s exactly where they should be. In this segment of Jen, Gabe & Chewy, Brewers broadcaster Jeff Levering joins the show to break down Milwaukee’s first month of the season and why the current record doesn’t tell the full story. ⚾ Brewers at 14–13 — Good or Bad? At first glance: One game over .500 Last place in the division Inconsistent offense But Levering’s take: 👉 “They’re doing fine.” 🧠 Why This Start Isn’t a Problem The context matters: Missing key bats like Yelich, Vaughn, and Chourio Inexperienced starting rotation Tough schedule ahead And still: 👉 The Brewers are holding steady 🔥 Trevor Megill Turning It Around After early struggles: Megill has improved command Throwing more strikes Fastball working better up in the zone 👉 The trust is starting to return 👀 Kyle Harrison Breakout Levering highlights: A healthy offseason making a huge difference Increased confidence and command Electric fastball that even teammates struggle to pick up 😬 Sal Frelick Struggles Frelick hasn’t found his rhythm yet: Only one multi-hit game so far Still grinding through long at-bats Contributing in subtle ways 👉 The belief: He’ll be fine — just needs time 🚑 Help Is Coming Injury updates bring optimism: Jackson Chourio could be first back Andrew Vaughn not far behind Both potentially returning soon

Adam Schefter joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy fresh off the NFL Draft — and immediately connects one of the biggest moves to a familiar Packers storyline. 🏈 Rams Draft a QB… Sound Familiar? Schefter breaks down the Rams taking Ty Simpson and compares it directly to the Packers drafting Jordan Love: 👉 A win-now team drafting a future quarterback His analogy: 👉 It’s like buying insurance you don’t think you need — until you do The Packers questioned it at the time Eventually proved right But possibly sacrificed a Super Bowl run in the process 👀 Sean McVay’s Reaction Explained Schefter offers insight into why McVay looked uncomfortable: He was trying not to disrespect Matthew Stafford The team went out of its way to notify Stafford and Stetson Bennett It’s about balancing future planning with current leadership 🔄 Draft Night = Trade Night The first round featured 8 trades, and Schefter explains: Most weren’t massive deals Teams were simply manipulating the board Even division rivals are willing to work together 🧠 Teams That Won the Draft From Schefter’s perspective: Raiders stood out Cowboys had a strong showing Browns also impressed 🔥 Still Big Names Available Even after the draft, the league isn’t done: Odell Beckham Jr. DeAndre Hopkins Stefon Diggs Juwan Jennings 👉 Free agency still has storylines left ⏳ NFL Calendar Slowing Down Schefter notes: The league is entering a quieter period But it’s never fully quiet Expect more moves leading into minicamps

Craig Karmazin joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy for a conversation that goes in two huge directions: the Milwaukee Bucks hiring Taylor Jenkins and the NFL Draft decision by the Rams that instantly reminded everyone of the Packers drafting Jordan Love. 🦌 Bucks Hire Taylor Jenkins The Bucks have their new head coach, and Craig reacts to the hiring of Taylor Jenkins as Milwaukee begins a new era. The discussion centers on: Why Jenkins feels like a solid, defensible hire His background with Coach Bud and previous time in Milwaukee His success in Memphis and why many around the league still viewed him positively Whether a coach in the NBA is more about X’s and O’s or managing stars and egos 👀 Was Giannis Involved? That leads to the biggest Bucks question: Did Giannis have any say in the coaching hire? Craig is honest that he doesn’t know for sure, but the conversation digs into: Giannis posting that the Deer District “should be loaded right now” Whether that was a message of frustration or solidarity with Bucks fans How much power Giannis still has within the organization Why everything in Milwaukee still ultimately goes back to Giannis 🏈 Rams Draft a QB… and Everyone Thinks “Jordan Love” The NFL Draft side of the conversation gets just as interesting. The Rams taking Ty Simpson at No. 13 sparked immediate comparisons to the Packers drafting Jordan Love: A win-now team using a premium pick on a future quarterback A head coach who may not have been fully on board The tension between planning ahead and maximizing a Super Bowl window Craig says Jordan Love has clearly worked out for Green Bay, but also argues the Packers may still have cost themselves a better chance at another title by not going all-in in that draft.

ESPN NFL Draft expert Mel Kiper Jr. joins Wilde and Tausch to preview what the Green Bay Packers approach may be to the 2026 NFL Draft without a first round pick. Also, thoughts on the state of Wisconsin Badgers football and its prospects - or lack thereof - for the NFL Draft over the last few years.

Jason Wilde joined Jen, Gabe, and Chewy for a wide-ranging Packers conversation centered on the upcoming draft, Brian Gutekunst’s roster-building philosophy, and where Green Bay still has real questions to answer. Jason explained why “best player available” is often more complicated than the cliché suggests, sharing a great Ted Thompson story to illustrate how need can still break ties on a draft board. He also compared Gutekunst’s approach to John Schneider’s, arguing that while there are many ways to build a roster, the Packers GM has so far built teams that are good, but not yet truly championship-level. The conversation also dug into cap space, possible restructures, and what Green Bay’s offseason may look like from here. Jason suggested the Packers could lean more toward draft picks, bargain signings, and extensions for players they already know they want to keep, with names like Tucker Kraft and Christian Watson coming up in that context. He also pointed to one of his biggest concerns with the current roster: not the frontline starters, but the lack of enough draft capital to properly backfill future departures. Wilde questioned whether the Packers have done enough to prepare for contract decisions looming at wide receiver and elsewhere, while making it clear that cornerback still feels like the most obvious immediate need.

The conversation also touched on individual standouts and long-term outlook. Levering praised Christian Yelich’s renewed confidence and leadership, noting how comfort and experience are translating into performance. He also pointed to Garrett Mitchell’s availability and production as a major boost, while breaking down Jacob Misiorowski’s development and why his command will be key to unlocking his full potential. Beyond the field, Levering shared his thoughts on the new City Connect uniforms, applauding the team for embracing a statewide identity and connecting with fans through thoughtful design.
