Mr. Irrelevant (with Alex Strouf)

Ep. 401 The Packers Need to Hate the Bears Again + Jordan Love's Big Season

Alex Strouf, Josh DiMaggio, and Will Sommers dive into the latest offseason drama after a viral NFL Top 100 clip made it seem like Micah Parsons crowned Caleb Williams the best player in football. The guys discuss why the Packers need to stop being so nice to the Bears, why the rivalry feels hotter than ever, and whether Caleb Williams is getting far more hype than his play has earned. Plus, Jordan Love lands on another "most pressure" list, leading to a debate about expectations, Super Bowl windows, and whether 2026 is the year the Packers finally put the offense fully in Love's hands. The crew also reacts to Packers minicamp, Lucas Van Ness generating buzz, concerns about Jordan Morgan, and why Alex is officially buying LVN stock. Then it's time for One Word Wednesday featuring a gambling scandal in college football, a high school lacrosse team punished for graduation cigars, Europeans discovering ranch dressing, and an officer who may have taken his anti-fish-in-the-microwave stance a bit too far.

Ep. 400 On the Clock: Packers Pressure Rankings, Parsons Concerns and Brewers Brilliance

Alex Strouf, Josh DiMaggio, and Will Sommers dive into the latest Packers storylines, including new comments surrounding Micah Parsons' recovery timeline and whether Green Bay can survive the early part of the season without its defensive superstar. The guys also play a round of "On the Clock or In the Clear," ranking the Packers facing the most pressure heading into 2026, from Matthew Golden and Jordan Morgan to Marshawn Lloyd and beyond. Plus, Jacob Misiorowski continues to make baseball history as the Brewers complete a sweep of Colorado, sparking a debate about Milwaukee's growing list of All-Star candidates. And because it's Mr. Irrelevant, the conversation also wanders into the Bears' potential move to Indiana, Will Sommers' accidental viral tweet, old kicker takes that refuse to die, and a surprisingly heated discussion about the greatest backyard drinking games of all time.

Ep. 399 Christian Watson Gets Paid, Bears Leave Chicago & Strouf’s Towing Nightmare

Christian Watson is officially staying in Green Bay, and the guys spend most of the show breaking down his new four-year, $110.5 million contract extension. Alex Strouf, Josh DiMaggio, and Will Sommers debate why the Packers were willing to make such a significant investment, what Watson has already proven, and whether his ceiling justifies the price tag. They also discuss how the deal impacts Jordan Love, the future of the Packers’ passing game, and what it says about Green Bay’s belief in Watson as a cornerstone piece of the offense. Away from Green Bay, the guys react to the latest Bears stadium developments after reports that Chicago could leave the city limits for a new stadium project in Hammond, Indiana. They discuss what that would mean for one of the NFL’s oldest franchises and whether Bears fans should embrace or reject the idea. Kiesean Nixon’s comments about the rivalry also spark plenty of discussion and laughs. The show also features one of the most ridiculous Alex Strouf stories to date, as he recounts getting his car towed after forgetting to renew his license plate registration. What follows is a comedy of errors involving parking enforcement, tow lots, paperwork, and an unexpected $20 reward from a stranger. As always, the episode wraps up with GeoSports, where geography and sports knowledge collide with predictably chaotic results.

Ep. 397 Do the Packers Need to Answer the Rams? + Giannis to OKC?

The NFL world shifted moments before the show when Myles Garrett was dealt to the Rams, and Alex Strouf and Josh DiMaggio dive into what it means for the Packers’ Super Bowl hopes. With Los Angeles loading up for another title run, the guys debate whether Green Bay should make a move of its own, including the possibility of targeting Josh Sweat to bolster the pass rush. The conversation also turns to the Bucks, as Oklahoma City emerges as a fascinating potential Giannis Antetokounmpo trade partner following the Thunder’s playoff disappointment. Plus, Strouf unveils his first-ever edition of “Will’s Weekend in Review,” featuring Jacob Misiorowski’s dominance, Brewers success, and a performance that may or may not earn rave reviews.
