Episode 214: Season Preview Series with Dan Simmons

In the final instalment of our season preview series, Jackson sits down with Eric Balkman, sports radio host for The Score Wisconsin on 95.3 in Appleton and 99.1 in Oshkosh. The two predict who will make the final 15-man roster, how much Myles Turner has embraced the city of Milwaukee and its culture, and where they see the team nine days before the season begins against the Washington Wizards. After all of that, if you’re looking for some fantasy football insights, we debut Balky's Beard of Fantasy Football Wisdom!

This season preview series continues as Kyle and Van are joined by returning guest and current Bucks Play-by-play announcer Lisa Byington. The group breaks down the importance of AJG, the prove it year for KPJ, and the strengths and weaknesses for the Bucks before talking about how important health will be for the team.

The season preview series rolls on, as Jackson and Van are joined by returning guest, former Bucks Play-By-Play Announcer Jim Paschke. The trio breaks down what a potential Myles Turner and Giannis pick-and-roll could look like, what Jim remembers about Greg Anthony with his son Cole now in a Bucks jersey, and what could be in store for AJ Green this season. Jackson also channels his inner Myles Turner with the return of Jackson’s Builds, and Jim officially stamps Paschke’s Passport as a recurring segment on the podcast!

In our latest installment of the season preview series, Jackson sits down with Brew Hoop (and podcast) newcomer Dan Simmons! The pair runs down the usual gambit of season preview topics while having some fun along the way.

We continue our Season Preview Series and are joined by a returning guest. Gale Klappa, the host of Courtside with Gale Klappa on Bucks +, joins Van to go through our usual topics of the season preview. Then, near the end, we have a Van's warped tour featuring "Tweeter & The Monkey Man" by The Traveling Willburys. In that moment, Van takes Gale so literally that it might cause some embarrassment.

For this season preview episode, Van takes on hosting duties and is happy to be joined by the host of Locked On Bucks Camille Davis and Justin Garcia. They go through the usual season preview series questions, but then add in their simulation station, where they talk about what is happening in WWE and 2k. We appreciate Justin and Camille for being on and encourage you all to listen to Locked On Bucks, if you don't already, which how could you not, and we will continue our Season Preview series in the lead up to the new season.

As Giannis gets underway at EuroBasket, we have new Brew Hoopers Finn and Drew . The two have more faith in Kyle Kuzma than anyone I know, based on his importance to the squad and fit in the lineup. As always with the preview, they see what the Bucks' strengths and weaknesses are, Myles Turner's fit, and what to expect from Giannis this upcoming season. Then Kyle's Film Review is back and he talks about the action pack F1 movie.

Jack and Jackson are joined by fellow Brew Hooper and offseason content GOAT, Morgan, to continue our Season Preview Series. They discuss lineups, Myles Turner's impact, Giannis Antetokounmpo's facts, along with the strengths and weaknesses of the Bucks. Then, in this edition of Where in the World is Morgan, he talks about a small countryside village in the United Kingdom named Edale. If you are a fan of hiking and pies, then this is the place for you!

Managing Editor Van was able to speak with Kris and Marques Johnson, yes THAT one, from Hear District, to talk about the upcoming season. There are questions about the starting lineup and playoff lineup, what Myles Turner will bring, and the statistics to expect from Giannis. Then they see what the Bucks' record and standings will be and discuss some films.

Jack and Finn watched all the summer league, so you didn't have to. They go through the pros and cons of Vegas and which players looked good and who left a lot to be desired. Then discuss Kyle Kuzma for some reason.
