    Miz Mania and Packers Cornerback Panic

    Homer opens the hour fully consumed by Jacob Misiorowski mania, asking how Brewers fans, bars and restaurants should change their behavior whenever “The Miz” pitches.

Jason Wilde joins to discuss whether Miz has changed his viewing habits before shifting to the Packers, where Keyshawn Nixon’s role as Green Bay’s number one corner sparks a larger conversation about Brian Gutekunst’s handling of the position. Tim Van Vooren also joins to talk Brewers postseason expectations, Brandon Woodruff’s importance, middle relief concerns and whether the Packers can be more than just good with their current cornerback situation.
