We also have a new mystery guest voice of our podcast! Let's just say this guy "Trumps" all our other guests! Big thanks to Greg Shapiro for hooking us up with our mystery voice! In this episode, we tried to start the season with a recap of all the season openers we've had with Dave but as we try to get through our review, we keep running into interruptions. These aren't just any interruption, but very unique and unusual interruptions. It's hard to explain- you kind of had to be there, but this is your chance to BE THERE and listen in for yourself! Welcome back to The Bait and Switch Podcast - it's Season 8! Enjoy!

This week, we’re excited to chat with our good friend and fellow Packers enthusiast, Jeff Grayson!

It’s hard to believe, but the Season 7 finale is here! For this special episode, we went back to April 2024 to record a conversation with Mitch Teich, where we made bold predictions about the rest of the year. So, what’s the twist? Now it’s time to see how accurate (or ridiculously off-base) we were! From the presidential election to global events, sports, and more, we covered it all. Spoiler alert: you probably shouldn’t rely on us for investment advice! Tune in for some laughs, surprises, and reflections as we wrap up an amazing season. Enjoy!

ADL agreed to wave his HIPPA rights and discuss his medical history with us on the air. What we discovered was more than either Chris or I ever expected! Turns out this isn't your every day new patient exam. Listen in to hear what happens! Enjoy!
