Bears. Blers. Belgium.

After 4 enthralling years in Rogers Park, Bears Superfan Cameron Krutwig has traveled across the pond to Belgium to begin his professional basketball career. He is joined by senior walk-on for the Ramblers, Will Alcock, a self-described ‘Hoosier’. The pair will record their conversations that would have taken place regardless. In doing so they discuss Krut’s experience at the pro-level and his travels in Europe. They’ll give insight to Rambler fans whilst keeping Krut informed about Loyola Basketball. Also they’ll air their clashing Midwestern sports takes, and maybe expound upon their variety of cultural interests. Bears. Blers. Beligum. Those are the three topics that will be discussed weekly. Enjoy and go ‘Blers.

The highlight of this episode and what will most likely be the peak of podcasting is the conversation lead by the Dean of the Valley, Coach Barry D. Hinson. Coach joins the show at the 32:30 mark from Stillwater where he is an analyst on Mike Boynton’s staff at Oklahoma State. The trio discussed Coach’s new role, being Yoda, a new familiar foe, general philosophy, and of course, THE VALLEY.

In other news the Bears do not totally stink. This coming Sunday could be highly emotional for Krut, In Rogers Park the ‘Blers had their annual open scrimmage as the season draws near. Will also reveals that this team is full of Ted Lasso stans. In Belgium, Krut begins continental play this week. Someone get that man a pumpkin pie.
