Zero Doinks: World's Weirdest Chicago Bears Podcast

An 11 game skid against Green Bay ended on Sunday and made us feel hope for the first time in months. Caleb is clearly the man, and now he needs a leader. Hopefully it’s Ben Johnson, if Chicago does not Bears it up. Our season finale awaits your ears.

Will the Bears losing streak end in 2024? We doubt it. Tonight we wrap up the 2024 version of Zero Doinks and will return after a new coach (and GM?) is hired. But there's a lot to get to, just maybe not a lot of it revolving around the Bears. We love you, we want your Christmas to be so merry and bright. Go Bears, eventually.

Are we simply fated to a life of bad Bears football? Thomas Brown ended any hope of a dead coach bounce and now we have to suffer through one more month of one of the least enjoyable seasons ever. Let's get Caleb and Rome some sweet stats to close the year, at least. 

Eberflus has been fired and we never want to think about him again. We talk about what an idiot that guy was and where we'd like the Bears to look next, under the leadership (?) of the oft car-washing Kevin Warren. Dan has an obsession with bees and other winged things this episode. Will Thomas Brown ever lose as Bears interim head coach? We doubt it.

Thomas Brown and Caleb Williams. Should we keep this tandem together? Caleb looks  unbelievable. Is Flus fired yet? He just keeps finding new ways to mess up, it's comicable at this point. Bears are inches away from getting a Top 10 pick next year. Six games to go. Join us, as we prepare for the Lions game. They're going to murder us. Also we love Onebar and Lupagus.

We realize you probably don't want to think about the Bears right now but this ep is going to change your mind. As luck would have it, Dan and Bill magically discover they have a similar personal issue occurring right now, and they are about to go on a similar journey together. That is more important than Santos getting his worm-burning kick blocked by the Packers and everyone becoming sunk in misery yet again, right? Caleb to Rome looks like something special, at least, and new OC Thomas Brown might be the only guy on staff who knows how to coach.

Three OCs in 11 games seems like something bad franchises do. Haven't we done this show before? Maybe twice? Shane Waldron was terrible but is there any doubt Green Bay is going to put the negative spotlight back on Flus and his horrible tenure? Just protect Caleb, FFS. And let's have some fun with the return of Keep An Eye On Dan.

Rick Feelsmen took over Twitter Spaces on Election Day and his predictions for what's to come for America and the Chicago Bears are a must-listen. Plus maybe he'll slide in his three hot picks for this weekend? Special thanks to Elon Musk for his Spaces technology providing speaking guests an involuntary + thick lisp from time to time. Happy (?) Election Day 2024.

Welp, that Cardinals effort suggests the Flus has lost the locker room. The fan base already hated him but the Hail Mary probably sealed his fate and there's no real reason to keep him around anymore. The Illini football squad keeps kicking Bill Doinks in the noots. What are good teams? Can someone please introduce them to us?

Honestly, this episode might be the medicine you need after Sunday if you are a long-suffering Bears fan. Bill has been buried in familiar feelings of despair since Washington's Hail Mary landed and he's unsure if he's ready to talk about it. Can Dan (and/or Grover) cure him? Right on cue, Rick Feelsmen went 0-3 with his hot picks, the Illini got their doors blown off by top-ranked Oregon and there is no reason to live. Or is there?
