Molly & Jim

Jim Rutledge, Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown hold it down for a way-too-early look at the Packers' 2026 season (coming in Hour 2). First, Matt has a big surprise announcement for the fans, followed by Molly surprising everyone with the phrase "seed of your pants" (in honor of Matt's fancy team USA trousers)! Jim explains the anxiety he got from a surprise that his wife was preparing him for today, leading to today's Siding Unlimited poll question -- Do you like to be told ahead of time that a surprise is coming? Mark Tauscher joins Jim, Matt & Molly to talk about the Packers and what he learned from the Seahawks winning the Super Bowl. First, they get some Olympic talk in with curling gold medalist Matt Hamilton, who wants to know more about Tausch's previous experience on the curling ice and with other winter sports! Tausch explains what stood out to him most from Seattle GM John Schneider's approach to team-building -- special teams matter! He also explains what his biggest worry is for this Packers team going into next year, as well as what it's like to struggle for a young offensive lineman with big expectations like New England LT Will Campbell. Molly wants to know what Tausch thinks about the Packers "regurgitating" their QB coach position with Luke Getsy! During Minute to Win It, Jim & producer Primetime quiz Matt & Molly on the early lookahead for the 2026 NFL season with the current top 10 favorites to win 2026 MVP!

Jason Wilde joins Jim, Matt & Molly to talk more about the Packers offseason and people placing Sam Darnold above Jordan Love after the Seahawks won the Super Bowl! First, Jason asks how he's supposed to feel about watching Olympic curling without Matt Hamilton on the ice this winter...? Then, they get into the advantage for QBs on a rookie-scale deal and what it means for the Packers -- can Jordan Love overcome the historic trend and get Green Bay back to the Super Bowl, or did the Packers already squander their best opportunity to win with Love? Also, how does having two QB-level contracts impact things with both Love and Micah Parsons on the roster? Also, how much pressure is on Gutey to HIT on his moves going forward after his many MISSES last offseason?

Jim Rutledge, Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown roll into Hour 2 as they discuss today's Siding Unlimited poll question -- Who will be the best QB in the NFC North next year? They hear from Unsportsmanlike Chris Canty, who has Caleb Williams & Sam Darnold over Jordan Love on his list of the Top 5 QBs in the NFC! Jim, Matt & Molly discuss which quarterback has the best surrounding "infrastructure", how close each one is toward their ceiling, and where will each rank next year -- including whoever's playing QB for the Vikings! They also focus deeper on the Packers vs Bears matchup -- are you worried about Caleb Williams surpassing Jordan Love? During Throwing Stones, they get confused by Sam Darnold & Kenneth Walker's lack of enthusiasm at Disney Land after winning the Super Bowl -- are the champs supposed to go to Disney Land or Disney World? They wrap up with the lack of juice for Bucks basketball as the Giannis situation will drag on for the rest of the season -- how many games has Matt watched, and how many will he ACTUALLY watch this year???

Jim Rutledge, Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown are all back to continue discussing the Packers' biggest offseason questions -- after focusing on Gutey's shortcoming yesterday in the face of his contemporary in Seahawks GM John Schneider winning the Super Bowl, they focus more on the QB for Green Bay! First, Molly can't let Jim slides for his fancy, "try hard" outfit today -- what's the occasion and does Jim ever look like a "bum" on the show? They also welcome back producer Primetime after his weekend away in the Queen City -- aka Cincinnati! He recaps his "escapades", including how he might've gaslit his sister-in-law into accidentally giving his niece a new name at her baptism!!

Jim wraps up Hour 1 teasing their conversation for next hour with today's Siding Unlimited poll question -- Who will be the best QB in the NFC North next year?

Hour two keeps the ego sparring alive but settles into a much meatier Packers autopsy, as Jim, Matt, and Molly argue over Brian Gutekunst’s track record and whether fans should actually trust him to nail a draft when it matters most. They grade last offseason with and without the Micah Parsons splash, debate missed and hit draft picks, and circle the uncomfortable conclusion that Green Bay probably needs an elite draft—not just a decent one—to truly contend. That spirals into a bigger-picture argument about organizational success, with the crew ranking NFL franchises since 2010 and reluctantly slotting the Packers as solidly top-10 but outside the true top-five tier dominated by teams like the Patriots, Chiefs, Eagles, Seahawks, and Rams. The back half lightens up with “Throwing Stones,” as they dissect Super Bowl commercials—calling out the best, the cringiest, the creepy (hello, Ring), and the ones that tried way too hard—while admitting many of them slept through chunks of the game anyway. The hour blends Packers existentialism with pop-culture nitpicking, landing on a familiar theme: good, not great… and still chasing the standard.

It's your Monday Night Drive with Jim, Matt, and Molly as the crew pinballs from Brewers roster moves to an all-time ridiculous debate about height, hair, hands, and who’s actually allowed to talk trash about it. Things then turn to the Super Bowl, where a boring game gives way to a surprisingly passionate breakdown of the halftime show, the at-home vs. in-stadium experience, and whether it’s ever worth paying to attend if your team isn’t playing. Finally, the show dives headfirst into Packers angst, optimism, and existential dread, asking fans whether the Super Bowl made them feel better or worse about Green Bay’s future—and, naturally, sparking arguments about stars, depth, defense, and whether the Packers’ blueprint is actually built to win it all.
