  • The cohosts woof

    I loved Bart on the radio but his producer and cohost are baaaaad. I got maybe 20 minutes into the episode before calling it. Bart, you deserve better. Until you realize that your podcast is off my feed.

  • Give this man a radio show again!

    Love listening to Bart. Sure he can have some extreme takes but they are much more grounded than almost any national talker out there. You want fun, entertaining and great Wisconsin and national sports talk this is it. Been listening to him since he was producing at 1250 and he’s only gotten better.

  • Thank you Hot Take Jake!

    Jake did a wonderful job during the most recent show of providing spot on critique of Paul’s willingness to buy the national perspective that Giannis is somehow worth less than the likes of Desmond Bane. I thought the very same things that Jake gave voice to. As a 50 year old Bucks fan, I know I will likely not be around the next time the team has a player as good as Giannis. With this being said and if the Bucks really are going to trade him, the organization needs to recoup as much value as po... more

10.06.26 - MmHmm/Mm-mm: Bucks optimism, why the Brewers feel different this year, Packers are not good
Q: If the Brewers go to the World Series and lose, should the team still be celebrated?
The hosts consider how a rare World Series appearance would matter to fans despite a loss, while distinguishing a pennant or finals appearance from winning the championship.
10.06.26 - MmHmm/Mm-mm: Bucks optimism, why the Brewers feel different this year, Packers are not good
Q: What feels different about the Brewers this year?
The hosts point to the team's improved play, dramatic wins, and increased confidence, including players saying they expect to contend for a World Series.
10.03.26 - Brewers catch a postseason break in 3-2 Game 1 win over Padres, maybe this year will be different??
Q: Based on tonight, how do you think things play out tomorrow?
Andrew expects another close, tense game, pointing to both teams' strong pitching staffs and bullpens. He says the team that gets more breaks may ultimately win the series.
10.07.26 - Padres keep series alive with 4-3 win at Petco Park, can the Brewers wrap things up in Game 4?
Q: Guys, how come the Brewers decided not to run on a kid who is owed for the season on throwing out runners?
Wagner says baserunning decisions depend on factors beyond the catcher's throwing record, including when the runner reaches base, who is batting, and the pitcher's delivery.
10.07.26 - Padres keep series alive with 4-3 win at Petco Park, can the Brewers wrap things up in Game 4?
Q: They lost 4-3. We've been talking. You and I have been talking. People have been talking. This is probably going to be a series where these are what the scores are going to be. 3-2, 4-3, maybe a 5-4, maybe a 2-1. They lost tonight, your initial thoughts on the game.
Wagner says he expected San Diego to respond at home with its season at stake. He says the teams are closely matched, the scores are unsurprising, and small moments of luck have shaped the games.
