We're back with Episode 2 of our Belly Up series! This week we break down the Cubs’ strong start as they sit atop the NL Central, we dive into what’s driving the offensive surge, why Dan is already eating crow on PCA, and what still needs fixing, including the bullpen and the need for another reliable starter.

We also pivot to the Bears and the ongoing Caleb Williams narrative, raising some tough questions about the direction of the franchise and whether real progress is possible.

Tune in for sharp insights, honest takes, and the usual bit of controlled chaos.

On this episode of The Domestic Draft Podcast, the guys are joined by Jacob Infante—Lead NFL Draft Analyst, Bears blogger for @WCGridiron, and Draft Analyst for Pro Football Network—to break down the Chicago Bears' 2025 Draft Class.

We go pick by pick, diving into how top selections like Colston Loveland, Luther Burden III, Ozzy Trapilo, Shemar Turner, and Kyle Monangai's fit into the Bears’ roster and future plans. From offensive weapons to key defensive additions, we talk scheme fits, rookie roles, and long-term potential. Did Ryan Poles crush the draft? What grades would we give? And which rookies could make an immediate impact?

All that and more on a can't-miss post-draft episode for Bears fans!

On this episode of the Domestic Draft Podcast, Dan and Evan crack open a new series called “Belly Up”—a throwback to their weekly barstool catch-ups back in the Chicago days. Just like old times, they’re diving deep into Chicago sports with a cold one in hand.

First up, they break down the Bears' upcoming draft, sharing who they want to see in navy and orange—and who they think the team will actually take. Then it’s over to the North Side, where the Cubs are rolling and bringing some much-needed joy to Chicago fans. But it’s not all sunshine—Dan gives his painfully honest (and slightly depressed) take on the state of the Bulls organization.

Tune in for draft predictions, Cubs hype, and a little Bulls misery, all served up with that classic Domestic Draft banter.
