I don't mind NBA playoff talk - it's May and there's only so much Kyle Tucker/PCA or Caleb talk (although they will beat those topics into the ground most days). If you're going to have a NBA guest on, why not just talk playoffs without bringing it back to the Bulls? They do this for the most part, but every interview always comes to how these teams impact the Bulls direction or just general questions on how they will approach the off-season.

There's plenty of time to talk NBA Draft/free agency and I'm good with some of that in June/early July. It just seems forced to feel the need to talk Bulls off-season in May and asking guests about the Bulls though feels like a lazy obligation to serve the Chicago audience.

The problem is that the Bulls are largely irrelevant and they don't matter, especially right now. Ask those questions closer to the draft/free agency. Outside of their first round pick, they aren't likely to make any major acquisitions before next season and are more likely to develop/focus on their young talent.

I see they are still talking about this

It could actually be an interesting angle, leaning in to their outsider status. I have heard Leila say that if this was another team's QB, Bears fans would consider it an enduring story until the QB spoke. Some "in-town stupid" at play.

But, alas, they are not good radio hosts. So they cannot leverage that unique inherent trait and instead are not good AND outsiders

They should be happy tomorrow Caleb spoke.

Leila and her co-host enjoy laughs about why Aaron Rodgers could host a football podcast as long as he doesn't give advice or talk about non-football items like vaccines or conspiracies.

Agreed on that, Rodgers is a nut...but it's lost on Leila how much inaccurate information she and Dan gave out (not blaming me them in the moment), but a lack of reflection on how bad the "science" was and the lack of awareness they have while they still think they were responsible in their views.

Leila thinks fans are angry at her for asking Caleb to speak to the new book. She mentions Dan Wiederer and Mark Grote as allies in her fight.

Per Leila, the backlash from fans pointing out the reality that Caleb needs to address this. Fans are frustrated and the danger of being wrong about another QB is what is behind the anger of fans.

If Caleb has a bad game, don't say you're not going to think about Caleb not wanting to be in Chicago.....per Leila.

The more she talks...the less intelligent she sounds.

She seemingly wants to take a non-story about Caleb and turn into a story about how she is covering the Bears. She addresses a text saying that nobody cares except her and Marshall, and she gives Dan Wiederer and Grote as evidence that this needs to be addressed. So 4 people vs. 2. Gotcha leila.

It's hard to drive a show, pretend to watch listener feedback, but then cry victim when people (listeners) don't like what you say, particularly her very bad takes.

That the #1 overall pick didn't want to come here and was just barely cajoled and reassured into going along with it is a non-story?

Leila bitches about guys hitting on her on the internet. Don't worry Leila. Keep on talking and the smart guys will stop. Even the dumb guys will stop. If it's your goal to have men not like you, you're doing a good job of it by talking. You're over 40. Careful what you wish for. You will always wish for the days when the boys liked you. Paid attention to you. Hit on you. Even if it's just sexual. That's every women. They'll never admit it, but it's true. I'd be canceled for saying this if I were famous. But I'm not. So the truth can be said without any penalty for me.

Especially since she's single. I get that married women hate white men. What the fuck to they care? But she's still trying to land one.

beardown, ya creep, would be very interested in Leila dating story (and 'fan interaction' story) on Monday transition

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2475043427?t=09h17m23s

It's probably worth mentioning that Leila and Marshall seem to have very different philosophies when it comes to dating and relationships. Probably nothing, their chemistry is so good otherwise!

also Leila saying as part of this (pretty lame, not Laurence lame but close) story, she was starving because she doesn't eat while on the air

Marshall is a good looking (no homo), in shape athlete who probably has all the chances he wants. He can choose to be indifferent to a lady who don't want none. Leila...well, let's just say she is in a different position

I don't know. I think she would be perfectly happy to be left alone at all times and never made to have a social interaction on anything but her terms.

However, deriving observational comedy from patrolling people's manners is a classic PMC white woman bit, so if she has to be inconvenienced and debased by someone saying hello to her in public, at least she can embarrass the guy and derive content from it.

Poor Leila. She can't go out in public without guys constantly hitting on her. The way she describes it. I'm sure that's true. She says it. So it must be true. Cuz she's so hot. And famous. So every guy wants her. Obviously.

Once again, Leila would love me. She'd consider me one of the good ones. I would never talk to her if I saw her in public. I find her annoying and not that great looking to put up with the annoying part of her.

Leila: Thanks, Beardown...wait, what?

she wasn't just out in public, she was at a score promotional event.

Leila was in the right. She's talking in a small group eating a hot dog. A guy barges in her space wanting to shake hands with God knows where that hands been. A lot of women would of told him off. She handled it well.

Odd though a fairly attractive 100k plus salary woman like Leila would stoop low to use dating apps with all it's lowlifes.

Leila's juice doesnt seem like its worth the squeeze.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

Spiegal gets people coming up to him while he's out at family dinners? Did I hear that right? He also thinks that people think of them like they are star athletes? I don't think he said that in an egotistic way, but I can't imagine thinking like that. They are just giving sports opinions, sometimes very leftist opinions on the air most days.

Leila may be in the right, not really taking a position on that, but she comes off as completely unlikeable.

I don't think she's on the apps, she went on a couple dates ('the 1 date a year I get') with a guy who was on the apps

/Bernstein it's not even that

Leila couldn't re-tell this story and lean into the bit that Marshall was attempting, in that it was simply funny that she was mid-bite and extended a handshake while having food on her hands. It's unequivocally rude of this person, that's not up for debate!

but no, it was Leila interrogating the social situation, and what Marshall expected of her. Marshall was trying to tell her "I don't think there's anything you could've done, I just found it funny!" but she insisted on reiterating what a bad position this put her in. She's comedy poison.

Leila seems so bitter and unhappy. She complains every day about something. Today she kept lapsing into a lower voice valley girl voice where she opined that "men like women who are quiet and can make food " and seems to enjoy lampooning men. Her constant complaining and condescension is making her even more of a difficult listen.

prolly just upset dolphin keeps telling her she's a 6.5

Marshall:

Does Leila not know how many men do the cooking and let their girlfriends prattle on about SVU and Taylor Swift with the patience of a Zen Buddhist? What app is she using? DraftKings?

I liked Leila back when she was a once in awhile guest or even a weekly guest. But the more we see of her the less I like.

She is in the team photo for worst full-time host in Score history.

Remember when Nardi used to proclaim his admiration for her?
