Here we are with the final 2015 season installment of the Bear Garden Podcast, the best Chicago Bears Podcast in the known universe. Nick drank too much so it's probably the worst podcast we've ever had....but hopefully you at least get a giggle out of it. See you all in September, Bear Down!

The Bears just don't know which way they want to go this year. After a couple exciting victories, they take a dump against the terrible San Francisco 49ers. Give us a listen and send a text or voicemail with your thoughts: 708-232-3271, that's 708-23-BEAR-1.

Things are looking up for our beloved Bears, how do we think they'll do in the third quarter of the season. Also; Miss Piggy...would you?

Welcome to the 2nd quarter of the season. Is it weird that it kind of feels decent to be 1-3? Listen to Mike and Nick talk about the season thus far on the best Chicago Bears podcast ever! Sometimes.

2015 Episode 1

mikepernecky@gmail.com (The Bear Garden Podcast - Mike and Nick) — Thu, 17 Sep 2015 03:35:00 +0000

We're back for our first episode of 2015! We're moving to a quarterly format since we're just so darn busy with stuff, but don't worry...we're working on some extra stuff in between. Sure the Bears are 0-1 but it doesn't seem as bad as it could have been, does it?

Week 17 - Lions Loss and Vikings Preview with Special Guest Pete!

mikepernecky@gmail.com (The Bear Garden Podcast - Mike and Nick) — Wed, 24 Dec 2014 05:13:00 +0000

We'll be honest, this week's podcast just kind of flew off the rails, much like the Bears season. We brought Pete on to talk about the upcoming Vikings game, but Nick was having none of it, and passed out before the end of the show. Again.

Week 16 - Bears Sucked vs Saints and will Suck vs Lions

mikepernecky@gmail.com (The Bear Garden Podcast - Mike and Nick) — Fri, 19 Dec 2014 03:42:00 +0000

Who would have guessed that the Bears suckage would continue? Cutler is no longer the starting QB and the offensive coordinator talks behind his player's backs. THIS SEASON IS THE WORST BEARS SEASON EVER!!!

Week 15 - What Now? Cowboys Review and Saints Preview

mikepernecky@gmail.com (The Bear Garden Podcast - Mike and Nick) — Thu, 11 Dec 2014 04:24:00 +0000

The Bears are eliminated from playoff contention, so it's time to look towards the 2015 season. What's going to change? What doesn't need to change? Matt Forte is 29 already! What do we do from here?!?!!?!

Week 13 - Bears vs Bucs and Bears vs Lions review, and VERY brief Cowboys Preview

mikepernecky@gmail.com (The Bear Garden Podcast - Mike and Nick) — Sun, 30 Nov 2014 02:50:00 +0000

For the first time every, Nick and Mike record the podcast while in the same room together! This is a Thanksgiving special that you'll either REALLY enjoy, or REALLY hate. You'll know within 5 minutes of listening if this one is for you. Also, the Bears suck but we'll keep watching! Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!

Week 11 - Vikings Review and Buccaneers AND Detroit Preview

mikepernecky@gmail.com (The Bear Garden Podcast - Mike and Nick) — Wed, 19 Nov 2014 04:49:00 +0000

The Party's Over - Packers Week 10 Review and Vikings Week 11 Preview

mikepernecky@gmail.com (The Bear Garden Podcast - Mike and Nick) — Wed, 12 Nov 2014 04:33:00 +0000

Well, the bottom fell out this week. The defense is horrible, the Chicago Bears can't cover anyone, the offense can't score any points, special teams is allowing punt blocks and not getting a lot of good returns...you name it. OK special teams had a kick return for a touchdown, but that will happen when you have 18 chances to return the ball. Call us to vent! 708-232-3271

Chicago Bears - Week 7 Dolphins Review & Week 8 Patriots Preview

mikepernecky@gmail.com (The Bear Garden Podcast - Mike and Nick) — Thu, 23 Oct 2014 03:32:00 +0000

Nick is back with us while on the road this week, and he'll probably even remember this episode in the morning! The Bears had a bad performance at home against the Dolphins, but all hope is not lost because the Bears win when they're supposed to lose, and this week against the Patriots is a perfect example, being 6 point underdogs. Bear Down!

mikepernecky@gmail.com (The Bear Garden Podcast - Mike and Nick) — Thu, 05 Dec 2013 00:15:00 +0000

Thanksgiving got the best of me (Mike) and I dragged my feet on posting this, sorry everyone. It's still worth a listen as we get talking with our good buddy Pete who lives in Minnesota, and he's not even being held hostage! Weird. We'll be back with a new podcast this week for Week 14!

mikepernecky@gmail.com (The Bear Garden Podcast - Mike and Nick) — Wed, 20 Nov 2013 04:17:00 +0000

This week we are without the Nick Jones that we all know and love, and Mike has a head cold, but does that stop him from delivering a quality podcast??? Ummm, maybe...you be the judge! Mike brings on a special guest who's in town from Chicago, his sister, and gets her take on the general feeling in Chicago regarding the Bears. Mike also makes fun of Nick, which is relatively simple to do. Bear down!
