The guys finish the first hour lamenting the loss of Logan O’Connor for the beginning of next season.

Mike Evans and Richie Carni without Mark Schlereth kick off the fourth hour with some Pop Muzik before they present their favorite offseason moves for the Broncos. A 9am texter made a fascinating comparison between Bo Nix and another QB of Broncos past. Mike has been following the Gabriel Landeskog documentary and now he’s paying close attention to another injured Avs player so he gets a player’s perspective on coming back from major surgery. Mike, Mark, Richie, and the producers all pitch in on the Daily Top 5: Favorite Music Artists, to finish today’s show.

Mike Evans and Richie Carni without Mark Schlereth enter the third hour with Producer Ty catching up to the Daily Top 5: Music Artists. They talk about Casa Bonita as two guys who’ve never been. Stink hops on to tell us all about his busy weekend unpacking Casa Schlereth before he gives his take on the state of the RB room. Stink catches up to the Daily Top 5 with his #3-5 before he discusses the benefits of Bo taking more of a leadership role. The guys are joined by the Senior Editor at Denversports.com, James Merilatt, to get his take on the state of the Broncos’ young position groups.

Mike Evans and Richie Carni open the second hour with Mike telling us all about the badass job he did towing his camper through a snowy Berthoud Pass. The guys air their concerns about the construction of the RB room, specifically the lack of a proven bell cow back. Everybody’s raving about Bo Nix’s leadership but how much does that matter in the big picture? Mike and Richie debate. The guys get to #4 of today’s Daily Top 5: Music Artists and they present their favorite offseason moves for the Broncos after The Athletic put out their puzzling pick. What’s Trending? The NBA media is failing the league, a tennis epic, someone needs to save Paul Skenes, proof that the pros can screw up too, and the goodest boy ever.
