4.8 out of 5 stars from 3.1k ratings
  • Shills

    Used to love this pod as a fan-focused but objective Bears pod. Clearly the McCaskeys or Warren got in their pockets because blaming anyone but the McCaskeys for this horrific Indiana proposal is preposterous.

  • Love the pod, but watch the piped in ads

    The pod is great as always, but some of the ads are getting piped in mid-word (especially the Homeserve one). It’s really disruptive

  • The Ads & CHGO Bears Relisten Podcast

    I used to LOVE this pod, but since it moved from The Athletic to ALLCITY they can’t go 3 minutes without an Ad break or talking about what was said on presumably the “main show” CHGO Bears. Really hope this gets turned around.
