And Bryan Bulaga joins for his weekly appearance sharing insights as a soccer enthusiast to the USMNT loss to Belgium AND diving into the Green Bay Packers and why Matt LaFleur's offense looks so different compared to his first season when Bryan still played for the team.

Tausch reflects on the departure of Aaron Rodgers from Green Bay as Giannis Antetokounmpo goes through that same process right now in Milwaukee. Did Aaron Rodgers' exit set up Jordan Love for success in Green Bay? Tausch thinks so, and Giannis hasn't done the same for his now-former teammates in Milwaukee.

Alvarez shared his insight on the newest director of athletics at Wisconsin, Shawn Eichorst, given their time working together in the UW athletic department from 2006-2011.

Then, they play Wilde & Tausch trivia, as fill-in producer Primetime Wollersheim asks the hard questions for the 4th of July sports weekend recap!

Jason & Tausch roll into Hour 2 with their continuing reaction to new Wisconsin Badgers AD Shawn Eichorst's appearance during the first hour! Tausch likes how much of Barry Alvarez's voice he heard from Eichorst, but how does the new athletic director win over the younger Wisconsin fans who want to move on from the Barry legacy? They continue with co-host of the Jump Around, Riley Jauch, sitting down in the studio to share his reaction to Eichorst's interview, including why he no longer thinks this was a "meh" hire for Wisconsin! Riley also explains what he thinks it will take for younger fans to see the greater Barry vision and what he hopes to see on the football field after hearing from Eichorst for the first time. Tausch also debuts his newest metaphor: Jack and the Beanstalk as a comp for fundraising and NIL in this era!

Eichorst sheds light on what he values most in college sports, his early conversations with Luke Fickell, and the experience and growth from his time as the previous AD at both Nebraska and Miami. He also gets into what he learned working under Barry Alvarez, the importance of working with coaches, and why, ultimately, talk is cheap in this era of college sports and NIL! Jason & Tausch spend the final segment discussing their initial reactions to Shawn Eichorst's appearance, including the value of saying that talk is cheap and the importance of Barry Alvarez's continued impact on the athletic department!

Tensions get a little high recapping Tausch's take on soccer from earlier in the show with the Carbliss ESPN Wisconsin Talk & Text Line.
