Jim Rutledge & Molly Brown roll into Hour 2 from their respective remote locations in Oklahoma City and Beaver Dam. Jim finishes folding clothes in his hotel room before they address a BIG-TIME Unsportsmanlike shoutout for Matt Hamilton -- who's away competing to represent Team USA in the Olympics! They address the elephant in the room when fellow curling legend, Jared Allen, who addressed Matt Hamilton's side gig as a radio host.... During Throwing Stones, producer Primetime forces an uncomfortable conversation about how Giants RB Cam Skattebo "dominates" his tacos, leading them to delay Mark Tauscher's appearance so that they can get Jim to say how long it takes HIM to eat a taco. Mark Tauscher joins Jim & Molly for "taco talk" (not tackle talk with Bryan Bulaga), as they address Giants RB Cam Skattebo's viral video talking about how he "dominates" the tacos he eats -- do Tausch turn the taco, or let the taco turn him? They get into real football conversation with Packers fans ripping Matt LaFleur for his play-calling, but how much are Green Bay's offensive line struggles to blame (and how much blame does Gutey deserve for his poor construction of this position group)? How much do injuries at skill positions factor in when talking about the shortcomings from LaFleur and Jordan Love over the last two weeks? Jim moves things to the Badgers and the feeling of getting a win vs No. 23 Washington, including why it WASN'T I.P.T. for fans to rush the field at Camp Randall. Tausch also explains how much Chris McIntosh's "proclamation" played a factor in how the team performed this past Saturday. Jim & Molly wrap up the show with some final taco talk, including the epidemic of tiny tacos at restaurants!

Jim Rutledge & Molly Brown hold it down for Wednesday Fly Time, as Jim scrambles to host the show live from his hotel room in Oklahoma City. Molly's out in Beaver Dam feeling fresh, but Jim is feeling stinky after his long travel day (including his VERY active IG stories for us) with the lowlight of the nightmare passenger he flew with into OKC. Jim gives the dazzling details of his manure-ish experience while while Molly tells us about her dream of using The Rock as a flotation device on a plane! They comb the Carbliss Talk/Text line for more nightmare experiences from fans, and Jim gets into the other difficulties from his long travel day -- from almost forgetting his phone to checking into his 10th floor hotel room 5 minutes before showtime -- before regaling us with the outfits he brought to watch tonight's Thunder vs Lakers game. They wrap up Hour 1 with Minute to Win It -- Matt LaFleur is on the hot seat with Packers fans, and their opponent this week -- the New York Giants -- just fired their head coach; so, Jim & producer Primetime quiz Molly on the last 9 NFL head coaches who were let go by their teams!

Jason Wilde joins Jim & Molly to talk about the Packers' loss to the Eagles, Matt LaFleur's hot seat, and the problems with Green Bay's offense! Jim points out the Packers' standing in the NFC North after falling to 5-3-1 and whether the Packers can get things turned around to still win this division. They get into Packers fans calling for Matt LaFleur's job after the offense scored 20 points over the last two weeks, Jordan Love's continued inconsistent play, and the blame for GM Brian Gutekunst's flawed roster construction (ie, Nate Hobbs & Aaron Banks). Also, was LaFleur being phony when he said that "you're always coaching for your job" in the NFL, and who can fill the void for the Packers' apparent void of leadership?

Jim Rutledge & Molly Brown roll into Hour 2 live from Ruth's Chris Steakhouse in Middleton, as they continue reaction to the Packers' 10-7 loss to the Eagles on MNF after a second straight abysmal performance for Matt LaFleur's offense. Jim describes his full "hiking" fit for dogwalking in this weather before he and Molly get into a hike measuring contest. Producer Primetime also pushes another edition of Mrs. Steal Your Take, as she might be getting "gaslit" again another notable ESPN Radio host used one of Molly's new favorite phrases when talking about Love and the Packers. They review their Don't Quote Me predictions from last Friday ahead of the Badgers' SHOCKER win against No. 23 Washington and the Packers' UGLY loss to Philly, including another big whiff for Molly & Brandon McManus. During Throwing Stones, Molly describes her favorite part of the Badgers' big win -- Jim's running gameday updates on IG stories -- just how long was the walk from Arboretum Drive to Regent Street?

Jim Rutledge & Molly Brown are LIVE from Ruth's Chris Steakhouse in Middleton for a Loser Jim Wins Monday (on a Tuesday) after the Packers fell 10-7 to the Eagles... It was another dismal display by Green Bay's offense while the defense held up it's Super Bowl-caliber status for the second week in a row. Fans are calling for Matt LaFleur's job & pointing out his questionable play-calling, but how much is Jordan Love's consistent inconsistency actually to blame? Jim & Molly discuss if these two are an imperfect match for the Packers offense before asking today's Siding Unlimited poll question: Which HC is more likely to get fired first — Matt LaFleur or Luke Fickell? By the way, the Badgers won this weekend (and Jim's prediction about freshman QB Carter Smith was right)! They get derailed by the delicious steaks and meats at Ruth's Chris before splitting up the porterhouse of blame between Love, LaFleur and GM Brian Gutekunst for his roster management. Jason Wilde joins Jim & Molly to talk about the Packers' loss to the Eagles, Matt LaFleur's hot seat, and the problems with Green Bay's offense! Jim points out the Packers' standing in the NFC North after falling to 5-3-1 and whether the Packers can get things turned around to still win this division. They get into Packers fans calling for Matt LaFleur's job after the offense scored 20 points over the last two weeks, Jordan Love's continued inconsistent play, and the blame for GM Brian Gutekunst's flawed roster construction (ie Nate Hobbs & Aaron Banks). Also, was LaFleur being phony when he said that "you're always coaching for your job" in the NFL, and who can fill the void for the Packers' apparent void of leadership? Jim & Molly wrap Hour 1 going to the extreme with Billy Joel!

Jim, Molly, and Ryan roll on LIVE from Ho-Chunk Gaming Madison and after a riveting game of Don't Quote Me, they debate Chris McIntosh's non-statement on the GM position for Wisconsin football before Badgers legend Melvin Gordon joins! He is deeply saddened about the current state of affairs before his trip to Madison this weekend as he talks with Jim and Molly. He gives his perspective on the program as a distinguished alumni and where the current regime is falling short. Finally, comedian DJ Hughley wraps up the show and sends you into the weekend!

Jim, Molly, and Ryan are LIVE from Ho-Chunk Gaming Madison, after they arrive quite a bit late, to react to Wisconsin Athletic Director Chris McIntosh, who joined Wilde & Tausch this morning to give his best defense of his decision to give Luke Fickell one more season. Spoiler alert: No one was very impressed by his answers... They're also joined by Jason Wilde who discusses what it was like on the other side of that interview.

Evan Cohen of Unsportsmanlike, and noted UW-Madison alum, joins Jim, Matt & Molly to give his reaction to the news that Wisconsin AD Chris McIntosh is keeping Luke Fickell for the rest of this season and 2026. Does this show a lack of commitment or a lack of funds for Wisconsin, and does this definitely mean that Fickell and Wisconsin will stick together after this season? Where does Evan see things going, and can we get some UW decision-makers to start treating their notable alums (and potential boosters) with a little more respect? They also discuss the possible outs still remaining for the Badgers and for Fickell, where things might go after this season if Wisconsin only ends up with two wins, and the notable names for a college football GM who could come in to actually bring a positive face to the tarnished brand of Wisconsin football!

Jim Rutledge, Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown continue reacting to the Metro Kia & Ford Breaking News that Wisconsin AD Chris McIntosh will retain football head coach Luke Fickell for the 2026 season! They hear from AD Chris McIntosh (who will be joining Wilde & Tausch tomorrow morning), who said that success is about more than just wins & Losses during one of his pre-recorded "state interviews" for today's announcement. They ask today's Siding Unlimited poll question: Do you care about anything other than Wins & Losses for the #Badgers football program? During Throwing Stones, they take aim at Mr. Irrelevant's goofy shirt in the ESPN Madison offices today before zeroing in on the people at the top of UW-Madison. How much responsibility does Chancellor Jennifen Mnookin have in the deteriorated state of the program, and how much does the university truly care about fielding a SERIOUS football program? They wrap up their jam-packed show with a quick Molly's Game for Week 2 of their contest, leading up to the Wisconsin vs Illinois game at Camp Randall! Who's winning and who will end up getting PUNISHED on November 22nd???

Jim Rutledge, Matt Hamilton & Molly Brown react to the Metro Kia & Ford Breaking News that the Wisconsin Badgers will be bringing back Luke Fickell for 2026 rather than succumb to fans' pleas to fire him ASAP. They react to un-shocking, but nevertheless upsetting news, that Wisconsin will be saddled with Fickell. With just two wins and no improvements 2.5 years into Fickell's regime, what has he or AD Chris McIntosh given fans to think that they can turn things around? They also hear from NBC lead CFB reporter Nichole Auerbach and an interview with Badgers LB Cooper Catalano, who shared their thoughts on Fickell during interviews on The Jump Around this week. Producer of the Jump Around and host of ESPN Wisconsin College GameDay, Riley Jauch, joins the show to give his reaction. Who are the money people at decision-makers at the top of UW people that continue to support this regime, and can we get any significant boosters who want to make change?

Does this show a lack of commitment or a lack of funds for Wisconsin, and does this definitely mean that Fickell and Wisconsin will stick together after this season?
