Molly & Jim

Molly Brown & Riley Jauch roll into Hour 2 as they continue discussing the results of today's "bad" Siding Unlimited poll question -- Who have you liked more as Packers president/CEO: Ed Policy or Mark Murphy --, and they discuss whether the Packers feel too "corporate" and disconnected from fans nowadays -- is this a Policy problem, does it matter so long as they win, and how do the Packers compare to the fan connection and questionable commitment to winning of the Brewers? They pivot to another team that feels disconnected from its fanbase, Badgers football, as the program pushes fans to buy season tickets -- Why should anyone feel good about giving their money to the program under Luke Fickell right now? During Throwing Stones, Molly lays out the problematic "Senior Assassin" tradition that her son's high-school class is celebrating right now -- why are kids tracking each others' locations on their phones, and how problematic was Riley's SPICY senior assassin tradition???

They also ask today's Siding Unlimited poll question -- Who do have you liked more as Packers president/CEO: Ed Policy or Mark Murphy? They dip in and out of Primetime's food power rankings with the wonders of fresh fish in Lake Michigan and Riley's favorite cover band in Sheboygan, they give away some High Life, and they wrap up revisiting Josh DiMaggio's take that the Packers have topped out with Matt LaFleur as their head coach -- will he ever lead them back to the Super Bowl???

Molly Brown & Riley Jauch roll into Hour 2 after he failed to live up to his Badgers fandom during Minute to Win It... they spin it back to this week's ongoing conversation about which team has the worst vibes in Wisconsin sports right now, as they check the vibes on the Milwaukee Bucks right now -- is everyone still sick of the nonsense with Giannis and the will-he-won't-he play drama with the Bucks. Then, they get into the anti-holiday mood on April Fool's Day, playing a special Crush It or Can It with some of the funny, awkward, and weird gotcha posts from around Madison and the sports world! -- Is "Guy Ferrari" actually buying stake in State Street Brats?

Then, they get into the latest reports that the Packers are considering adding Kirk Cousins as a backup behind Jordan Love -- would this be a "travesty" of a signing?? Plus, should the Packers target a vet, stick with Desmond Ridder as QB2, or try another reclamation project by trading for Anthony Richardson! During Throwing Stones, Molly asks Josh if it was a nuisance for him to fill-in host like it was for Jesse yesterday, and is it a bigger nuisance for their schedules or for Matt Hamilton's??
