The Cubs introduced their new general manager this week, Carter Hawkins. Cubs Weekly host Elise Menaker and Tony Andracki sum up the top takeaways from Hawkins' introductory press conference and explain how they think he fits in alongside Jed Hoyer in the front office.

Plus, Menaker and Taylor McGregor detail their respective experiences doing in-game sideline reports throughout the 2021 season and all the challenges and changes that came with that role. Such topics include the impact of fans on the broadcasts, interacting with players for stories and the differences in this season compared to 2020.
