The Bears are a better team than the Packers, even with Tyson Bagent at the helm for at least one more week. Should the boys of Zero Doinks be more nervous than they seem? Plus Dan visits Northwestern’s new palace and Bill is excited about the Sox.

Case Keenum was the star but Caleb’s robe is the talk of the town. The Bears remain frisky as they await their star’s return. Zero Doinks is hype(d).

That was scary, let's not do that again. The boys ponder temporary Bears life without Caleb while trying to dig themselves out of the misery that was Week 2. Caleb will be back soon (Monday?) and the league shall pay for their sins.

59 points in the season opener. What is next for the greatest offense in the history of sports? Vikings up next. Plus Rick Feelsmen starts hot and wants you to ride with him. The rest of the league is fighting for second place. This is our life now.

As the Bears look to start their road toward repeating as NFC North champs, Dan pays respect to the recently-departed Dolly Parton as only a Doink could do. Why are we completely without nerves going into Week 1 at Carolina? Surely that won't backfire. Rick Feelsmen and his three hot picks make a triumphant return. Plus both the Illini and Gophers football squads are off to hot starts going into more challenging Week 2 matchups.

Real Bears football is less than two weeks away as the 53 is (basically) set. How confident are the boys of Zero Doinks that the Bears will return to the playoffs and how do they stack up against the rest of the NFC North? Is Josh Jacobs a proper representative of the Packers organization as a whole? Is Matt LaFleur still getting daily haircuts and if he isn't, what does it mean? The boys also lament (?) the end of an era in Chicago sports media and have a few CPAP updates. B1G football talk as well.

Come join the boys of Zero Doinks and pass the dog days of Summer along with a wee bit of Bears talk as training camp storylines are about to be beaten to death by the lame group of Chicago beat reporters. Do not fret and join us in our hopes for a quiet, uneventful camp, unless of course Ryan Poles wants to trade for Maxx Crosby out of the clouds. Annoyed with Kevin Warren and his limp attempts at creating stadium leverage? We have a little bit for him this episode too. Welcome back, loyal listeners.

The boys have spent the week spoiler-free prior to the Bears 2026 schedule being released. Rick Feelsmen joins Zero Doinks to unveil the road to an undefeated '26 season. Hilarity ensues?
