  • I love the way Kyle says dot com actually

    This is my favorite 49ers podcast. It feels pretty balanced and Kyle is very funny while Chris has some info kinda. The ads have gotten even more out of control (5-7 mins to start the podcast and then another 3-6 mins mid podcast. Have also added a third break with another 3-6 mins. Idk how long you need to tell me you Iove lamb chops or prize picks), but I appreciate the analysis and humor

  • Kyle told me to

    *reading from note Kyle wrote while staring at me intently* This is my favorite podcast ever. There are not any guys I would ever want to listen to more then them. If I ever got married they would be my best men and be required to do their show from it as our entertainment. That’s how good they are! My life has truly blossomed because of them and this show. God Bless America!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

All things 49ers in the NFL draft with Luke Easterling
Q: Is there any chance a third QB sneaks into the top 10?
Yeah, but I think Sanders would have to go top three to make it happen.
All things 49ers in the NFL draft with Luke Easterling
Q: Is there a chance like Shador Sanders falls down to 11, where I'm trying to find what players will fall into that range?
I think Sanders is probably the one they would hope does that, right? It could happen because the NFL does weird things all the time.
All things 49ers in the NFL draft with Luke Easterling
Q: If the 49ers have to stay at 11, would you rather see them reach for a defensive lineman or is there a player at 11 that you're like, no, you got to just take that guy?
Particularly with both the edge and the defensive line class this year, it's not as much about the guy they would take there being a reach as much as it is knowing that you could get a guy 20 picks later that's the same caliber even if it's not the same guy.
Tim Kawakami joins the show!
Q: What makes this 49ers team up there when it comes to elite teams?
Tim emphasizes the duality of the team's talent on both offense and defense, which makes them formidable, highlighting the effective construction and culture set by Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch.
Tim Kawakami joins the show!
Q: Do you see a possibility for greatness in Brock Purdy?
Tim believes Brock Purdy has similarities to Drew Brees and sees him as a quarterback that could be among the best, but he needs to win a Super Bowl to make that comparison valid.
