  • Wilde: Ben’s Big Shot and Big-Game Nerves
    Jun 26 2026
    Jason Wilde joins Ben and Josh after seeing a highlight of Ben’s clutch NCAA Tournament shot against Oregon and asks him to reflect on what that moment meant. Ben explains why that basket mattered so much to Wisconsin’s Final Four run and why the Arizona Elite Eight game actually stands out as his greatest Badgers memory. Wilde uses the conversation to ask about nerves, preparation, and how young athletes can respond when they struggle early in big moments. The segment also takes a nostalgic turn into County Stadium, Brewers memories, and the legend of the two-fisted slopper.

  • Jason Wilde: Is Tucker Kraft the NFL's Best TE?
    Jun 26 2026
    Jason Wilde joins the show to discuss why Tucker Kraft appears to be on track for a lucrative contract extension and what makes the Packers tight end one of the league's most complete players. He explains why timing, not just production, drives NFL contracts, weighs in on Green Bay's offensive weapons ranking, and shares why the Packers still have plenty of confidence in their young skill-position group. Jason also offers a unique perspective on Bo Melton's value inside the locker room, arguing that his impact on team chemistry goes well beyond the stat sheet. It's a Packers-focused conversation packed with insight as training camp draws closer.

  • Wilde: Packers Must Avoid the O-Line Rotation
    Jun 25 2026
    Jason Wilde joins Homer and Bryan Bulaga to discuss the Packers offensive line and whether Jagger Burton has a real chance to compete for snaps as a rookie. Wilde says Matt LaFleur’s comments about Burton stood out because the Packers head coach rarely goes out of his way to praise young players publicly. Bulaga explains why he strongly dislikes offensive line rotations, saying they make it harder for players to build rhythm, trust, and cohesion. Wilde also expands the conversation to Sean Rhyan, player confidence, and why the mental side of football matters without becoming an excuse for poor performance.
