The 2PM hour of Kyle & Brust celebrates the Brewers finishing off a sweep of the Cubs and opening a massive 10-game NL Central lead with just 15 games remaining. Kyle Wallace and Ben Brust enjoy watching Craig Counsell’s misery, react to Big Cat admitting the Brewers “own” the Cubs and explain why Milwaukee can now turn its attention toward 100 wins and securing the No. 1 seed in the National League.

Plus, Josh Jacobs pleaded no contest to misdemeanor charges of battery and criminal damage to property in Brown County. Former assistant district attorney Dan in Madison joins the show to break down the plea agreement, what the reduced charges actually mean and why fans shouldn’t assume Jacobs received special treatment because he plays for the Packers. The guys also discuss what could come next from the NFL, Jacobs remaining on the commissioner’s exempt list and what his absence means for Green Bay’s running back room.

The 3PM hour of Kyle & Brust reacts to a brutal debut for former Packers receiver Romeo Doubs in New England, including zero catches and a massive fourth-down drop. Kyle Wallace argues Doubs’ struggles, combined with Drake Maye throwing three interceptions, are another reason Packers fans should appreciate Jordan Love more and recognize how much he elevated the receivers around him. Ben pushes back and says Love needs to destroy the “elite quarterback” narrative himself by producing the team success Matt LaFleur says is missing.

Plus, the guys react to Aaron Rodgers telling Wilde & Tausch that there are still people inside the Packers organization who could make him hesitant to return to Lambeau after retirement. Jason Wilde joins the show to break down Josh Jacobs’ no-contest plea, why he expects an NFL suspension and why Jacobs returning to the Packers afterward isn’t necessarily guaranteed. Wilde also previews Week 1 and the difficult balance Matt LaFleur faces between unleashing Jordan Love and protecting him behind an uncertain offensive line against Brian Flores’ Vikings defense.

The 4PM hour of Kyle & Brust tackles the biggest question facing the Brewers heading into October: who is their No. 3 starter? After Jerry Augustine picked Robert Gasser behind Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson, Kyle Wallace and Ben Brust debate whether Milwaukee can realistically make a World Series run without a more trustworthy third option. With Kyle Harrison struggling and Dustin May still trying to prove himself, September has become evaluation month for the Brewers’ rotation.

Plus, Bryan Bulaga joins the show and pushes back on Matt LaFleur calling Jordan Love elite. Bulaga says Love is very good and capable of reaching that level, but believes accomplishments like division titles, NFC Championship appearances and MVPs are what earn the elite label. The guys also react to Aaron Rodgers firing back at LaFleur’s claim that Love is the best quarterback he’s coached at the line of scrimmage, with Bulaga siding with Rodgers and explaining just how special No. 12 was at diagnosing defenses and changing plays.

The 2PM hour of Kyle & Brust reacts to an unforgettable Brewers comeback against the Cubs, as Jackson Chourio delivered the game-tying home run before 21-year-old Luis Lara walked it off in the 10th. Unfortunately, Kyle Wallace wasn’t there to see any of it. Ben and the K&B Fam roast Kyle for leaving American Family Field in the fifth inning because his wife was tired and hungry, sparking a debate over when it’s actually acceptable to leave a game early.

Plus, Badgers play-by-play voice Matt Lepay joins the show to put Wisconsin’s loss to Notre Dame into perspective. Lepay explains why the Badgers need to prove they can turn 30 good minutes into 60, finish games against teams in their own weight class and overcome the mental hurdle that has allowed mistakes to snowball. The guys also explain why the Brewers’ comeback, powered by Chourio and Lara, was another perfect example of the resilience and confidence that has defined Pat Murphy’s team.

The 3PM hour of Kyle & Brust revisits the annual Wilde & Tausch Bold-a-thon, where Kyle Wallace predicts the Packers will lead the NFL in turnover differential and Edgerrin Cooper will become a First-Team All-Pro. Ben counters with his own bold prediction that rookie cornerback Brandon Cisse will record six interceptions. The guys also react to NFL executives picking Matthew Golden as the league’s breakout player for 2026 and debate whether Matt LaFleur will actually give Golden enough opportunities to make it happen.

Plus, Matt LaFleur calls Jordan Love an elite quarterback, leading Kyle to revive his campaign to “Liberate Love.” Kyle argues the Packers need to put more responsibility on Love’s shoulders and let the passing game drive the offense, especially with Josh Jacobs unavailable. Ben pushes back on whether Love has truly earned the elite label yet and whether Kyle is too willing to blame LaFleur for his quarterback’s shortcomings.

The 4PM hour of Kyle & Brust wants the Brewers to finish the job against Chicago. With the Cubs suddenly looking over their shoulder in the playoff race, Kyle Wallace and Ben Brust explain why a Brewers sweep would be the perfect way to bury their division rival and put even more pressure on Craig Counsell. The guys also discuss the possibility of the Cubs missing the postseason entirely after spending weeks worrying about catching Milwaukee.

Plus, Kyle reveals the Packers bets he actually placed, including Jayden Reed receiving yards, Jordan Love touchdown passes and Tucker Kraft touchdowns. The guys open up the Bold-a-thon to the K&B Fam for their wildest Packers predictions, including Micah Parsons reaching double-digit sacks, Jordan Love breaking franchise records and Lukas Van Ness somehow winning Defensive Player of the Year. And Willingly Useless returns with Luke Fickell’s mentality, NFL travel strategy and some truly useless conspiracy talk.

The 2PM hour of Kyle & Brust reacts to Wisconsin’s 41-13 loss to Notre Dame and another second-half collapse under Luke Fickell. Kyle Wallace and Ben Brust take issue with Fickell saying the Badgers’ season “really begins now” after getting punched in the mouth and question why Wisconsin continues to compete with elite teams for a half before falling apart. Is the talent gap really the problem, or has the common denominator become Fickell and his coaching staff?

Plus, the Packers finally have a game this week, but Adam Stenavich’s assessment of the offensive line doesn’t exactly inspire confidence. With Aaron Banks and Zach Bako-Bewele still dealing with injuries, the guys wonder how Green Bay can survive Brian Flores and the Vikings with so much inexperience up front. Mark Tauscher joins the show to explain why the Packers have legitimate questions in the trenches and what concerns him most heading into Week 1.

The 3PM hour of Kyle & Brust is all about expectations for the Packers as Week 1 finally arrives. Kyle Wallace makes his official predictions, picking Green Bay to finish 12-5 and reach the NFC Championship Game, with Micah Parsons as team MVP and Javon Bullard as his unsung hero. Kyle also expects Jonathan Gannon to produce a top-10 defense and believes Jordan Love will open the season with three touchdown passes against Minnesota.

Ben Brust is more cautious, predicting 10-7 and another 7-seed for the Packers. He explains why uncertainty along the offensive line, Josh Jacobs’ absence, Micah Parsons’ injury and a difficult opening stretch make it tough to buy into Kyle’s 12-win prediction. The guys debate whether Green Bay’s talent is enough to overcome those concerns and whether this team is actually ready to take the next step in the playoffs. Plus, Ben keeps his hot streak alive in Are You Smarter Than Ben Brust

The 4PM hour of Kyle & Brust turns to the Brewers as Jacob Misiorowski looks to regain his dominant form against the Cubs. Kyle Wallace and Ben Brust explain why The Miz needs a confidence-building start before October and debate what Milwaukee’s postseason rotation even looks like with Kyle Harrison struggling enough that a move to the bullpen, or potentially off the playoff roster, has entered the conversation.

Plus, Zaire Franklin calls the Packers’ Week 1 trip to Minnesota the perfect test, and Kyle loves the idea of Green Bay immediately having to set the tone on the road against an NFC North rival. The guys debate whether the Packers can finally turn their talent into postseason results before Kyle puts his money where his mouth is with his favorite season-long bets, including Tucker Kraft touchdowns, Jordan Love touchdown passes and Green Bay making the playoffs.

The 2PM hour of Kyle & Brust reacts to Josh Jacobs’ initial court appearance being moved from November 17th to September 10th. Kyle Wallace and Ben Brust break down what the change could mean for the timeline surrounding Jacobs, while a former district attorney calls into the show to explain the legal process, why the misdemeanor charges matter and what could happen next. For the Packers, the immediate reality remains the same: prepare to start the season without Jacobs.

Plus, who are the Packers’ biggest X-factors in 2026? The guys debate whether Lukas Van Ness can finally live up to his first-round billing and help replace Micah Parsons’ pass rush production, while Ben makes the case for Jordan Morgan as the offensive X-factor. And with Week 1 finally approaching, Kyle and Ben admit it’s time to stop recycling the same Packers questions and find out what Jordan Love, Matt LaFleur and this roster actually are.
