You're listening to the Chicago audible podcast, changing up the way Bears fans

stay up to date on their favorite team since 2015 now get ready because it's

time to bear it out.

Welcome back Bears fans to another episode of the Chicago audible

podcast.

You know, just be there for the entire week, which will be a little new because I think I don't know if I've ever stayed the entire week in Indie. So it's going to be a fun time, but we'll get the hang out, watch some prospects talk to them. So I'm really looking forward to it.

And I think ever, I don't think you've ever been as a fan nor media. If I remember correctly, how are you looking forward to this? Any final thoughts before you can get there?

I mean, I'm really excited. I just hoping that the whole thing doesn't, you know, wash over me and overwhelm you too much. The most I've done, as you said, was sit at home, you know, watch in the broadcast there.

Lucky enough. I don't know if that's even the way to look at it. It's four years ago when I tore my ACL. It was right before the combine happened. I got the surgery done. So I got to basically just watch the entire combine that year, like just sitting on my couch, which is pretty great.

But I'll probably need to hit up Nick for some. What should I bring? Because I don't want to like be forgetting anything at home, extra pair of underwear, all that stuff.

Nick, any, any must have items?

I think I mean, you know, if you, as long as you bring that extra extra pair of underwear there may say, I think you're already in a good spot as you kind of head down to Indy, but nothing to major.

Yeah, I never like recall like after the trip like, man, I wish I would have brought this. So I think you're already in the right spot.

Top charger, phone charger, all your porous notes, Mason, I'm sure you're compiling in all these prospects and, you know, a shorthand list of questions will be just a few things that I would suggest taking down up a guys.

I was preparing for today's episode. I was just thinking about this. This is actually like our final show in its exact format before our transition. It's going to take place at the end of next week.

So it's been over 600 and 30 episodes just like this. I know we've had some different ones along the way, but it's just kind of, I don't know, bitter sleep to kind of be closing, you know, this chapter here today.

But Nick, you and I had a great meeting with the new powers that be here previously on Monday, downtown Chicago. And I know we're super excited to kind of take our show to new heights. There's a lot of belief behind us.

And how we're going to be able to kind of take this thing to the next level. And I'm just, you know, super excited for what's to come new branding, new name, but the same us, you know, and more of us too. And some others that were excited to kind of partner and work with, but how do you feel with this kind of being the last one of us like here.

I know we'll do some other remote ones too. But it's the last time doing like a Chicago audible episode in this format.

I feel like you before we went live, you were kind of telling me that because I knew we were going to go do shows in Indy and cover the days there. But being that this is going to be the last one, we were like sitting at, you know, a desk and like how it's always been right.

It is a little surreal, but like you, I'm really looking forward to the next chapter. But you mentioned something that I think is very important. Like you said, it's new branding, new people.

It's the same us. And that's really important as, as we kind of transition here and are able to just expand our bearers covers to entirely new heights. So that's what I want people to really who we're going to listen to this today tomorrow.
