The Interviews

Evan Cohen of Unsportsmanlike joins Jim, Matt & Molly to talk about the latest on Giannis' injury and his future in Milwaukee, per Shams Charania, as well as this Sunday's Packers vs Bears game! First, they have to regale him with Jim & Molly's back-to-back business lunches this afternoon -- including when Jim left Molly to look like a "fatty" when he just ordered soup for the Lunch #2 without giving her a heads up! More importantly -- what is Evan's opinion on desert after lunch? They get into the Giannis situation, including whether he deserves the majority of blame for Milwaukee's situation, and is it just time to let him go and get as much trade value as possible? They talk Packers-Bears, including which team has more at stake, is this when we start to learn who Jordan Love truly is, and what other NFC contenders are the biggest threats -- Eagles, Rams, 49ers?

ESPN’s Adam Schefter joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy ahead of a massive Packers–Bears showdown to break down the NFC North race, why the division could be decided in the next three weeks, and why Chicago’s surprising rise has changed everything. Schefter explains why Jordan Love’s national reputation remains split — with analysts like Dan Orlovsky and Mike Tannenbaum praising him, while others like Chris Canty and Rex Ryan remain skeptical. He reveals a key stat: only three NFL quarterbacks rank top-five in both QBR and passer rating — Jordan Love, Drake Maye, and Matthew Stafford — and what that really says about Love’s season. The conversation moves to: • Chicago’s surge behind Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams • Why Detroit’s coordinator turnover and injuries derailed its progress • How the NFC playoff field is shaping up, and why no team — Philly, Dallas, Detroit — is safe • What makes Packers–Bears so appealing for the NFL and why it landed the #1 FOX broadcast crew Plus: Schefter shares his thoughts on snow-day survival, why he’s officially done shoveling at age 59, and how his family handles winter the “it takes a village” way. 🎧 Jen, Gabe & Chewy deliver insider access, sharp debate, and genuine NFL perspective every weekday on ESPN Milwaukee.

ESPN’s Rob Demovsky joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy to break down why Sunday’s Packers–Bears showdown is the most meaningful matchup between the rivals in more than a decade — and statistically, the most significant since 1932. With both teams well over .500 and first place in the NFC North at stake, Rob explains why this game has real weight. The crew digs into Chicago’s blowout win over Philadelphia and whether it proves anything, why teams continue to attack Green Bay on the ground despite strong run-defense rankings, and how Micah Parsons’ presence forces opponents to adjust their entire game plan. Rob also details the fallout from Devonte Wyatt’s injury, what Nazir Stackhouse, Colby Wooden, Karl Brooks, and the practice-squad depth must now provide, and how Jeff Hafley may need to adjust schematically. Plus: What Green Bay can truly trust on offense, why Jaden Reed’s return is massive, whether Matt LaFleur will keep Jordan Love aggressive, and if Love has shown enough in cold-weather games to feel confident at Lambeau in December. 🎧 Packers insight with honesty, context, and smart analysis — every week with Rob Demovsky on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.

GKB President Craig Karmazin joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy following the Packers’ Thanksgiving win to break down the most important question in Green Bay: Who’s more valuable — Jordan Love or Micah Parsons? Craig argues that while Parsons is having a historic defensive season, Love’s growth and consistency make him the true foundation of the Packers’ success. The conversation dives into why some fans are still hesitant to embrace Love, how his season compares to past Packers quarterbacks, and why the NFC is more balanced — and more winnable — than people realize. Craig explains why Green Bay can still be a postseason threat, but also why nothing is guaranteed in a conference where “good teams lose to bad teams every week.” Plus: reflections on team confidence, what separates this Packers roster from others around the league, and why stacking wins—not style points—will determine whether Green Bay belongs in the NFC’s top tier. 🎧 Packers insight, honest debate, and Wisconsin sports energy — every weekday on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.

The crew also dives into the NFC North race, the Bears’ surprising record, and how turnovers have fueled Chicago’s run. Plus: Schefter explains why Chiefs–Cowboys could become the most-watched regular-season game ever, shares some bizarre Thanksgiving memories (including COVID, kidney stones, and vet emergencies), and reluctantly admits how competitive he gets at family board games. 🎧 Jen, Gabe & Chewy bring insider updates, NFL perspective, and Thanksgiving laughs every weekday on ESPN Milwaukee and wherever you get your podcasts.

Fox 6 sports director Tim Van Vooren joins The Homer Hour, why hasn't he liked the Packers offense as much since they brought in Josh Jacobs, does Matt LaFleur see that as the head coach, is LaFleur better at scheming up a passing attack and not running the ball as much, does he think LaFleur believes in Jordan Love, is the Packers reliance on the run hamstringing the offense and how much is missing Tucker Kraft an issue?

ESPN’s Adam Schefter joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy to react to the Packers’ back-to-back losses at Lambeau and their fading playoff momentum. Schefter says Green Bay has “squandered opportunities” and explains why they should still be in the playoff mix — but warns that the upcoming Giants game could be more dangerous than fans think.

The Fat Jack joins The Homer Hour with his best bets for the football weekend in both the pro and college ranks.

Chris McIntosh, Director of Athletics at the University of Wisconsin, joins Wilde and Tausch following news that head coach Luke Fickell will return to lead the Wisconsin Badgers football team in 2026.

Evan Cohen of Unsportsmanlike, and noted UW-Madison alum, joins Jim, Matt & Molly to give his reaction to the news that Wisconsin AD Chris McIntosh is keeping Luke Fickell for the rest of this season and 2026. Does this show a lack of commitment or a lack of funds for Wisconsin, and does this definitely mean that Fickell and Wisconsin will stick together after this season? Where does Evan see things going, and can we get some UW decision-makers to start treating their notable alums (and potential boosters) with a little more respect? They also discuss the possible outs still remaining for the Badgers and for Fickell, where things might go after this season if Wisconsin only ends up with two wins, and the notable names for a college football GM who could come in to actually bring a positive face to the tarnished brand of Wisconsin football!

Fox 6 sports director Tim Van Vooren joins The Homer Hour, what is missing from this Packers team, on the additions the Eagles have made compared to the Packers standing pat at the NFL trade deadline, what did the loss to the Panthers have on his thoughts about this Packers team and his thoughts on Matt LaFleur going for it on 4th and 8 against Carolina?
