After just five days off, Team of Rivals accidentally launches an entirely new season โ and immediately proves that, ten seasons in, we've learned nothing.
Pete, Ron, and Elliott are all back together for the Season 10 premiere, featuring:
A little Cubs and Cardinals talk (because not much has happenedโฆ yet)
A whole lot of Bears discussion after Chicagoโs bounce-back win and ahead of a rematch with the Packers
A special in-person appearance from Ronโs son Braden, a lifelong Packers fan and walking indictment of Ronโs parenting skills.
Ronโs Soccer Minute
We regret nothing.
(Except most of it.)

Elliott lives up to his โOccasionalโ title and misses this week's show, but it doesn't really matter because technical issues with Rumble killed the stream before it even started.
The Cardinals won the weekend, the Cubs keep circling the drain, and the Brewers are on a heater that makes the division race feel like a bad joke. Two weeks ago, Pete and Elliott thought they still had a shot; now theyโre Googling โwild card magic numberโ like itโs a life raft. Pete rants about Jeff Picoโs 1988 debut versus Cade Hortonโs August 6 gem in his 14th MLB start. Ronโs Soccer Minute becomes a full segment as he and Pete dig into the bleak road ahead for Ron's Newcastle fandom, proving that when baseballโs this depressing, weโll cling to any sport that isnโt actively hurting us.
No livestream this week, but we usually do so on YouTube, Rumble, Facebook, or X. Tuesdays at 8 PM (ish) Central Time.
If you're into baseball and only baseball, skip this one. Pete, Ron, and Elliott stick around after the regular show to talk about all that was revealed at D23 for Star Wars. The Clone Wars, The Mandalorian, Cassian, Obi-Wan, and The Rise of Skywalker.
