4PM: Packers Breaking Through REALISTIC Playoff Ceiling

  • Summary

  • Jim Rutledge and Jon Arias hold down Thursday's show with Matt Hamilton away curling in Arizona while Molly Brown is still out with babies. Packers should be optimistic after their QB Jordan Love returned to practice in full today, and they also discuss the importance of Jalen Hurts working his way out of the concussion protocol after participating in full as well. With the Packers coming into the playoffs as 4.5 point underdogs versus the Eagles in the wild card round, Jim and Jon take a broader view to ask what the Packers realistic ceiling is this postseason. They ask today's Siding Unlimited poll question about the Packers' realistic postseason ceiling: winning the wild card game versus Philly, beating the Lions in the divisional round, winning the NFC Championship Game, or winning the Super Bowl! Before any of this Jim and Jon get excited for today's remote guest appearance from comedian Michael Kosta of The Daily Show! Jim is amazed at the SIZE of the 6'4" Kosta, sending Jim and Jon down a rabbit hole about whether comedians skew taller or shorter than the average American height. Comedian Michael Kosta of The Daily Show joins the show live in between tapings out in NYC! Michael joins Jim and Jon to talk about his upcoming stand up shows at Comedy on State in Madison and his book detailing his transition from being a professional tennis player and college coach to comedy and working on The Daily Show. Jim and Jon also talk with Michael about his experience previously hosting a daily sports talk show with Regis Philbin, growing up in Ann Arbor before attending college at Illinois, the state of political comedy, and if it's rarer for a comedian to be 6'4" tall or have a clean shirt on! Jim and Jon transition from their great conversation with Michael for some more tennis talk, as Jon puts Jim on the spot with his tennis knowledge. They wrap up discussing more about the Packers playoff ceiling and the results from Packers fans voting in their poll question.
