The Interviews

Evan Cohen joins Jim, Matt & Molly on the Yuengling Guest Hotline. They think they're getting into Packers & Bucks offseason talk, but first they need to know if Evan is like any of today's callers who gave a name to their car, boat, or other inanimate objects that they own! Molly also lives in the embarrassment of mispronouncing horses names in the Kentucky Derby last week. They get into sports, but not the one they were expecting, as they delve into Evan's LOVE for all things WWE! They talk Seth "Freakin' Rollins, whether Evan would ever be in a match at WrestleMania, and Jim's AWFULL impersonation of Ric Flair's WOO! Also, would Matt make an excellent WWE wrestler, what is Yeeting, and was this the best or worst 20 minutes of Evan Cohen on Jim, Matt & Molly???

Former Wisconsin OL Rob Havenstein joins The Jump Around on the Yuengling Guest Hotline after retiring from an 11-year NFL career with the Los Angeles Rams, including a Super Bowl title. Havenstein reflects on his career, Wisconsin roots, and what’s next.

Lane Grindle of the Brewers Radio Network joins Jim, Matt & Molly on the Yuengling Guest Hotline to talk everything Brewers & baseball -- from this week's Cardinals series & his bad St. Louis accent, the impact of Jackson Chourio & Andrew Vaughn's return to the lineup, the injury concerns for Brandon Woodruff & Jacob Misioroswki, as well as Star Wars nights at the ballpark and the Brewers fans who brought SPAGHETTI into AmFam Field!

ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter joins Jen, Gabe and Chewy to break down the Packers’ decision to sign veteran quarterback Tyrod Taylor, calling it a smart move that adds leadership, stability, and experience to a young roster. Schefter explains why Taylor is widely respected around the league and why the drop-off from previous backup options may be minimal.

The conversation shifts to the idea of labeling Jordan Love as “injury-prone,” with Schefter pushing back on the notion and emphasizing how common missed time has become across the NFL. They also discuss Jonathan Gannon’s defensive philosophy, with Schefter noting that adaptability isn’t new—it’s simply what good coaching looks like in today’s evolving league.

Schefter wraps up with updates on NFL referee negotiations, suggesting progress toward avoiding replacement officials, and the latest on Aaron Rodgers, describing the situation as a continued “holding pattern” as the veteran quarterback weighs his next move.

Jason Wilde joins Jen, Gabe and Chewy to react to the Packers’ coordinator availabilities, starting with Jonathan Gannon’s first public comments as defensive coordinator. Wilde explains why Gannon’s “no scheme” philosophy reflects the modern NFL, with the defense expected to shift week to week based on opponent and personnel.

The conversation turns to Gannon’s expectations for the cornerback room, especially the need for physical, willing tacklers. Wilde also weighs in on Adam Stenavich’s comments about offensive execution before breaking down the Packers’ decision to sign Tyrod Taylor, arguing the move shows Brian Gutekunst recognizes Green Bay needs proven veteran insurance behind Jordan Love in a Super Bowl-or-bust season.

Jen, Gabe, and Chewy dig into several Packers roster questions with Jason Wilde, starting with Green Bay’s decision to pick up Lukas Van Ness’s fifth-year option. Jason explains that the move is less about past production and more about projected upside, with the Packers betting that Van Ness can still grow into a much more impactful pass rusher. The crew compares that decision to past first-rounders, discusses why the price is still manageable at a premium position, and debates whether Van Ness is set up for a breakout now that Micah Parsons will draw so much attention on the other side.

The conversation also turns to the Packers’ edge depth overall, including how much confidence the team has in younger players like Baron Sorrell, Colin Oliver, Deny Dennis-Sutton, and Brenton Cox. Jason breaks down why Green Bay may view the fifth-year option as both an upside swing and an insurance policy while those younger rushers continue to develop.

Later in the hour, the group shifts to the running back room, with Jason weighing in on whether the Packers truly believe MarShawn Lloyd can be the answer behind Josh Jacobs. While Lloyd’s talent and explosiveness still intrigue the organization, his injury history makes it difficult to count on him. That leads to a broader conversation about whether Green Bay still needs to add another body for competition and how much trust they can realistically place in Lloyd, Chris Brooks, and the current depth options heading into camp.

Wilde and Tausch are joined by Brewers broadcaster Jeff Levering! He tackles calling games on a fault line, why fans shouldn't be worried about the Crew right now, Jesse & Murph's feud, plus much more!

Jason Wilde joins Jen, Gabe and Chewy to break down several key Packers storylines, starting with Micah Parsons’ recovery timeline and why Green Bay should stay patient rather than rush him back too early. He also discusses why Desmond Ritter appears to be the favorite to back up Jordan Love entering training camp, even if the Packers are not ready to publicly say it outright. Wilde explains that Green Bay is giving Ritter a real runway in the offense, much like they once did with Malik Willis.

The conversation also dives into the Packers’ offensive line outlook, with Wilde saying the current group is likely the one Green Bay plans to take into camp, while acknowledging there could still be competition at a few spots. He also praises the Jayden Reed extension as a bargain for the Packers, arguing that the deal is team-friendly if Reed simply stays healthy and maintains his current level of production. The segment wraps with Wilde explaining the unusual Steelers move involving Aaron Rodgers and why Pittsburgh’s “right of first refusal” setup appears to be more about protecting draft compensation than forcing Rodgers onto the roster.

The Brewers are just over .500 — and somehow, that’s exactly where they should be.

In this segment of Jen, Gabe & Chewy, Brewers broadcaster Jeff Levering joins the show to break down Milwaukee’s first month of the season and why the current record doesn’t tell the full story.

⚾ Brewers at 14–13 — Good or Bad?

At first glance:

One game over .500

Last place in the division

Inconsistent offense

But Levering’s take:

👉 “They’re doing fine.”

🧠 Why This Start Isn’t a Problem

The context matters:

Missing key bats like Yelich, Vaughn, and Chourio

Inexperienced starting rotation

Tough schedule ahead

And still:

👉 The Brewers are holding steady

🔥 Trevor Megill Turning It Around

After early struggles:

Megill has improved command

Throwing more strikes

Fastball working better up in the zone

👉 The trust is starting to return

👀 Kyle Harrison Breakout

Levering highlights:

A healthy offseason making a huge difference

Increased confidence and command

Electric fastball that even teammates struggle to pick up

😬 Sal Frelick Struggles

Frelick hasn’t found his rhythm yet:

Only one multi-hit game so far

Still grinding through long at-bats

Contributing in subtle ways

👉 The belief:

He’ll be fine — just needs time

🚑 Help Is Coming

Injury updates bring optimism:

Jackson Chourio could be first back

Andrew Vaughn not far behind

Both potentially returning soon

Adam Schefter joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy fresh off the NFL Draft — and immediately connects one of the biggest moves to a familiar Packers storyline.

🏈 Rams Draft a QB… Sound Familiar?

Schefter breaks down the Rams taking Ty Simpson and compares it directly to the Packers drafting Jordan Love:

👉 A win-now team drafting a future quarterback

His analogy:

👉 It’s like buying insurance you don’t think you need — until you do

The Packers questioned it at the time

Eventually proved right

But possibly sacrificed a Super Bowl run in the process

👀 Sean McVay’s Reaction Explained

Schefter offers insight into why McVay looked uncomfortable:

He was trying not to disrespect Matthew Stafford

The team went out of its way to notify Stafford and Stetson Bennett

It’s about balancing future planning with current leadership

🔄 Draft Night = Trade Night

The first round featured 8 trades, and Schefter explains:

Most weren’t massive deals

Teams were simply manipulating the board

Even division rivals are willing to work together

🧠 Teams That Won the Draft

From Schefter’s perspective:

Raiders stood out

Cowboys had a strong showing

Browns also impressed

🔥 Still Big Names Available

Even after the draft, the league isn’t done:

Odell Beckham Jr.

DeAndre Hopkins

Stefon Diggs

Juwan Jennings

👉 Free agency still has storylines left

⏳ NFL Calendar Slowing Down

Schefter notes:

The league is entering a quieter period

But it’s never fully quiet

Expect more moves leading into minicamps
