On Episode 136, Sam and Jack sit down to give their reactions to the Cubs and White Sox' free agency signings as well as the Carlos Correa situation. They move on to talking Chicago Bears, playing around with scenarios regarding the #2 overall pick, who could trade up for a QB, and which WR the Bears could potentially trade for to enhance Justin Fields. They guys pivot to Iowa basketball losing to EIU as 31.5 point favorites for the largest gambling upset... ever? And Iowa football lost out on 5-star OT Kadyn Proctor? What? Jack wraps the show up with some unexpected news for his New Years plans.

On Episode 135, Sam and Jack catch up and talk about the unexpected comeback of Jack's football career. They dive in to the remaining Iowa football season, how the transfer portal SHOULD GO (including a little prediction) as well as the addition of two new coaches to the Big Ten. They predict each championship game in FBS and then stroke the Hawkeyes bu convincing Jack they will beat Duke. 

On episode 134, the guys are joined by Sean Bock to talk everything Iowa Hawkeyes football. Recruiting. expectations, results, bright spots, dull spots. Every stone is overturned this episode. We try our absolute hardest to make sense of this season.

On Episode 132, Sam and Jack prepare their minds and bodies for the Bears to travel to New England and face Bailey Zappe and Bill Belichick's squad on Monday Night Football. They talk about the wide receiver position for the Bears again, looking at NFL Draft prospects given the high-draft position Chicago will have, quick MLB update and discussion on whether or not Fernando Tatis Jr. would have received a ring if the Padres won the WS. The guys wrap the show up with more "talking about my fantasy team" which we all know if our listener's FAVORITE segment.

On Episode 132, Sam and Jack breakdown the state of the Chicago White Sox after a disappointing 2022 season that resulted in Tony LaRussa retiring this past week. Lots of changes will be coming, including Jose Abreu finding a new club, potential trades, potential managerial candidates, etc. The Bears are still trying to find their footing while we reminisce on the memories our parents have as well as debating the magnitude of the NFL Championship vs the Super Bowl. 

On Episode 131, Sam and Jack breakdown how their fantasy football season has gone and some of the bets/predictions that have been made through the first 3 weeks. The guys dive into reasoning behind some of their picks, the state of their leagues, regrets, and outlook for the rest of the fantasy season. They get into the Bears WR room after, breakdown the Michigan/Iowa game on Saturday, LiAngelo Ball making his return plus much more.

On the long awaited Episode 130, Sam and Jack come back together to discuss the recent Chicago Bears games through Week 1-2, the Iowa Hawkeyes miserable appearance through Weeks 1-3 and the travesty that is the White Sox finally losing the pennant race (in Jack's eyes). It's not every episode that the guys are pessimistic... or maybe it is. Sad episode all around. Oh and Lonzo Ball is hurt, too. Wonderful.

On Episode 129, Sam and Jack are faced with a time crunch as Zoom inhibits how long the guys were able to record. The short, 15 minute podcast covers many of the pertinent topics that we have missed. From the Chicago Bears going 3-0 in preseason to the White Sox slowly sliding into irrelevance and Tony LaRussa quietly stepping aside, there was plenty to hit on this week. Not to mention that Scott Frost is still coaching.... somehow. 

On Episode 128, Sam and Jack recap the Field of Dreams disappointment, preview NFL preseason and a plethora of takes and predictions for the upcoming season, and dive into the new NFL Hard Knocks season following the Detroit Lions. Needless to say, the guys are now casual Detroit Lions fans for the year until they play Chicago. Sam breaks down the end of "The Captain" documentary by ESPN and explains how Derek Jeter was a let-down, loser excuse of a General Manager. 

On Episode 127, Sam and Jack take a second to sit down and catch up on the fact that the Bears are debating on moving to Arlington Heights or staying in Chicago with their THIRD possible addition to Soldiers Field. This WAS recorded before the MLB Trade Deadline so apologies for emotional takes that actually sound hysterical at this point. We then get into the best and worst fan bases around, from college athletics to baseball and even fans of a certain someone, we all know who our least favorite fans are to interact with or just merely notice. From The Yankees to the Cubs and plenty in-between, someone is bound to have their feelings hurt after this episode.
