  • 4PM: Nervous or Excited by Packers First Round Draft Prospects?
    Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown continue to hold it down with Jim Rutledge away on spring break. They look (and laugh) back about producer Primetime's nightmare fuel third date story from yesterday's show, including some further clarification on what happened with his defunct credit card? Molly explains what's making her feel old about working out again after giving birth four months ago. Some other old news: Round 1 of the NFL Draft in Green Bay is exactly 3 weeks away! Molly asks if Packers fans should feel more excited or nervous about the first round given Gutey's draft record, and they assign grades to the team's last 5 years of first-round picks. They also discuss if Jordan Love's grade would be different if he wasn't drafted by Green Bay, and where would be today if he was drafted by one of the "cellar-dweller" franchises. They wrap Hour 1 giving away some Miller High Life, and Matt whips his greasy hair during his best Clay Matthews impersonation.

  • 5PM: Prospecting the Packers, 2025 NFL Draft
    Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown continue discussing all things Packers draft with just 3 weeks away from the start of Round 1 in Green Bay! Producer Primetime revives their weekly segment from last draft season -- Prospecting the Packers -- to present to potential players that the team should consider trading up for: WR Tetairoa McMillan out of Arizona and CB Will Johnson out of Michigan! They get the fans thoughts with today's Siding Unlimited poll question, asking if they'd rather trade up for Johnson (projected at No. 10 overall) or McMillan (projected at No. 19 overall). Jim Rutledge also chimes in with his thoughts on the Carbliss talk/text line while away on spring break. Molly & Matt then listen to Gutey's comments from Monday's league meetings when he was asked to following up on his "need for urgency" statement at the playoffs. Is Gutey holding himself to the same "urgent" standards as his players? During Throwing Stones, they discuss the NFL expanding its number of games on Christmas Day this coming season and if they'd want the Packers to be a permanent fixture of the new NFL holiday. They wrap up with some final thoughts on which position the Packers should address in Round 1.

  • Mark Tauscher on JM&M
    Mark Tauscher joins Matt & Molly to talk about Jaire Alexander posting workout videos with Xavier McKinney, if Jaire could still realistically have a place on the Packers' roster in 2025, and if there's any chance that the Gutey will pursue Bengals pass rusher Trey Hendrickson, who's apparently back at a stalemate in his contract talks with Cincinnati ownership! He also answers today's Siding Unlimited poll question: Is it more likely that Jaire or Trey Hendrickson plays for the Packers next season? First, Tausch chimes in on the "inquisition" of producer Wolly's embarrassing date story, and he catches up with Matt about his vacation to Japan last week.

  • 4PM: Is Jaire Still Disgruntled with the Packers???
    Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown continue to hold it down with Jim Rutledge out on spring break. They react to the Brewers FINALLY winning some games! After taking their home-opening series vs the Royals with a walk-off bunt in extra innings today, Matt & Molly get into why they do or don't like watching their teams play in games that come down to the wire and why their answer if different if it's the Packers vs Brewers vs Bucks vs Badgers! They get into today's Packers "news", reacting to Xavier McKinney's IG video of his workout with Jaire Alexander today. They discuss if it's starting to feel like Jaire could stay with Green Bay and if Gutey would still want him (and his injury history) on the team. Next, they hear what Trey Hendrickson had to say about his frustrations in contract talks with the Bengals. Is Hendrickson getting the "Davante Adams" treatment and are we getting our hopes up that Gutey could go get the pass rusher that Green Bay badly needs? They ask today's Siding Unlimited poll question -- Who’s more likely to play for the #Packers next season: Jaire Alexander or Trey Hendrickson? They finish Hour 1 with Minute to Win It, as Molly and producer Primetime test Matt's knowledge of tight ends in honor of "his guy" and future Packers No. 1 receiver Tucker Kraft!

  • 5PM: Primetime's Dating Inquisition!
    Molly Brown & Matt Hamilton roll on following Matt's rough outing (again) in Minute to Win It. He drowns his sorrow by drawing out all the details from producer Primetime about his date last Friday.

  • Jason Wilde on JM&M
    Jason Wilde joins the show to go deeper into the comments from Gutey and Matt LaFleur down at the NFL Owners Meetings and the rule changes that passed, didn't pass, and were tabled (including the Packers' proposal to ban the tush push). They begin talking about the weirdness of these meetings before Matt gets heated about why the NFL needs to adopt the Lions' proposal to re-seed the playoffs based off records rather than division winners. Molly asks if Gutey has too much pride in his first-round picks by giving too many opportunities to pass-rushers Rashan Gary and Lukas Van Ness as well as offensive tackle/guard Jordan Morgan.

  • 4PM: Gutey Fooling Around in April
    Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown continue to hold it down while Jim Rutledge is away on Spring Break. Matt & Molly get into more of the comments from Packers GM Brian Gutekunst at the NFL Owners Meetings, sinking into Gutey's apparent complacency when it comes to the existing pieces on the team's pass rush. Will Gutey let his pride get in the way of improving the pass rush, and why does Matt keep keep giving Gutey a Southern accent? They also discuss the age-old holiday of April Fools Day and if it's all it's cracked up to be. Matt explains why he prefers his pranks to come spontaneously, leading to today's Siding Unlimited poll question: Would you rather be the Pranker or the Prankee on April Fools Day? They discuss how many of their pranks actually hit back in the day and ask listeners for their best all-time pranks.

  • 5PM: Tush Push Ban Gets Stood Up
    Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown roll into Hour 2 of today's show reacting to some more of the comments from Brian Gutekunst and Matt LaFleur at the NFL Owners Meetings. What did Gutey say/clarify yesterday about his previous urgency comments from the end of the season, and did he live up to those comments with his behavior in free agency? Also, can Gutey still improve our hopes with his picks in this coming draft? Then, Molly gets annoyed with Matt LaFleur's underwhelming demeanor when talking about Tucker Kraft and if he can be a No. 1 receiver in his offense. During Throwing Stones, Matt, Molly & producer Primetime also present their true (or real) April Fools Day headlines, including a revelation? about Prime's personal life last Friday night... They wrap up revisiting today's Siding Unlimited poll question about if you'd prefer to be the Pranker or the Prankee on April Fools Day, and they discuss the importance of balance between chicken wing flats and drumsticks.

  • 4PM: Brewers Get Torpedoed by Yankees & Royals!
    Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown hold it down with Jim Rutledge out on spring break this week. Matt & Molly react immediately following the Brewers' 11-1 loss to the Royals in their Home Opener today... They also discuss the Brewers getting historically bombed by the Yankees this past weekend as well as the hottest topic in the MLB - the Yankees' use of new-fangled Torpedo bats. They discuss the Brewers' historically-poor start to the season and ask today's Siding Unlimited poll question: Should Torpedo bats be legal in the MLB. Matt breaks down the in-and-outs of the Torpedo bat and draws a comparison to a similar innovation with the brooms in his sport of curling. They discuss whether other high-level athletes like Aaron Judge should be in favor of something like the Torpedo bat in baseball and if the Brewers need to get their hands on these bats ASAP!
    27 min
  • 5PM: Will Tush Push Ban Go Through?
    Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown roll along in their 1.5-hour edition of the show following the Brewers' brutal 11-1 loss in today's home opener. They pivot from discussing the ethics of the Yankees' Torpedo Bat as they battered the Brewers in the Bronx, moving back to the discussion of the Packers' proposal to ban the Tush Push. They listen to Gutey's comments from today's NFL Owners Meetings, and they try to remove their Brewers and Packers fandoms when asking whether the Tush Push or Torpedo Bat is better for their respective sports. They also listen to Gutey's comments about Jaire Alexander's status with the team after the team's apparently gotten nowhere while shopping him for a trade this offseason. During Throwing Stones, producer Primetime allows Matt to take a victory lap on "mid-major" Badgers basketball after highly-recruited freshman Daniel Freitag entered the transfer portal today.
